Trump And The Opposition

So much to write about, so little time.

First, I want to praise President Trump for his fearlessness with already putting into action many of his campaign promises when there is so much opposition coming from every direction.

Day after day he is ridiculed, lied about and mocked. Yet he carries on and with gusto!

Consequently, I'd like to say what a great role model he is, even with his sometimes crazy tweets and off the wall remarks.

How so?

He truly seems to have the courage of his convictions. So many of his predecessors did not. When the going got tough, they got going. They backed down. Compromised. Gave in. Looked the other way.

But not The Donald. So far, he continues to fight on against incredible odds.

The last president who exhibited this trait was Ronald Reagan. He also took a constant beating from the press and opposition but stood his ground regardless.

However, I think the current antagonistic forces are even worse against Trump than they were for Reagan. I honestly wonder how he can take it day in and day out. And it's only been two weeks!

Next, I want to write a bit about the opposition.

Why the violence at protests? Why the constant vitriol in Congress? Why the fake news by much of the media?

The answer?

They know they are losing their power and are desperately trying to hold onto it.

However, I think they are cutting off their noses to spite their faces.

I think it's all going to backfire on them.

Especially when the 2018 mid term elections come up.

Those Democrats who don't bother to show up for cabinet confirmation hearings or to vote on a bill or got ugly and name called Trump will regret it. They are making a huge mistake.

How so?

They are underestimating We The People who put Trump into office in the first place. They're underestimating our resolve that who we elect should do what we elected them to do. That we're sick and tired of politicians and ones who promise one thing and do another.

We put up with 8 years of President Obama and now it's our turn and we're backing The Donald 100%. And I don't see that changing no matter how hard the opposition tries.

So let the Democrats, Progressives and Liberals continue to cut off their noses, despite their face. All they're doing is digging their own graves. And I'm fine with that
