Why I Support Trump, And I am NOT Ashamed!

We need a President who can be strong, stand up, and fight for what is right for us.

In light of the presidential elections coming up, and being a first-time voter, I've felt that this election could be the most important one. At this point in time, our country is at a make-or-break point. We suffer from terrorist attacks, debt, taxes, and we are at a point where our own people are fighting against each other. We live in a world where common core is taught to children, and our Second Amendment right is on the line. We live in a world where God and the Bible are frowned upon in an open discussion at school or any religion at that. We need a President who can be strong, stand up, and fight for what is right for us. Working middle-class people need a person to back them up, and to help drive up employment opportunities for the unemployed. Someone who will use the government money to help support disabled people who can not work, and veterans (or anyone) who suffer from chronic mental illness. Not someone who will make it easier to live off the government than it is to live off a hard earned paycheck.

I am supporting Trump because I cannot trust Clinton. But most importantly, Trump speaks to the general public. He is a businessman, not a politician. At this point, I think having someone like that will benefit us. He is extreme, but he is extreme for our best interest. He wants nothing more but to protect this country. Clinton, on the other hand, has killed, committed treason, and went behind OUR country's back. Mass media has made it look more, and more like Trump is the worse of the two evils, but in reality, the media is almost always wrong. Trump has spent less time, and money on advertising aginst Hilliary Clinton, and I commend him on that. It shows his confidence, and that he has loyal supporters to back him up.

Most importantly if you are trying to decide between if you want to vote in this crazy election, or not. PLEASE do! Your vote matters, especially the younger ones like me. We are the future of this country, and we deserve to have our right to pick our President. Make sure you're registered to vote!

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
