I think there’s an element of reality in that doom and gloom. We have an extremely serious fiscal problem on our hands that is worsening by the day. Its like a ticking time bomb.
Yes, America has overcome many problems in her history and by and large we are optimists. However, the culture, social fabric, morality and work ethic have changed in very significant ways in the last couple of decades. And government has become pervasive in every aspect of our lives. We simply are not the same country we once were and that’s going to make it harder for us to overcome our problems.
I’m for Trump. He’s a fearless, results oriented guy and I think he can do positive things for the country. But the deck of cards he has to play is not a good hand.
You play the cards you’re dealt. Attitude goes a long way in achieving success and Trump’s attitude is positive in a big way. For some people,” impossible” does not exist in their vocabulary. My parents taught me that “difficult” things were relatively easy and that “impossible” just took a lkittle longer to solve. You are correct in that “society” and even culture has changed. Nevertheless, having a president and extended first family who exhibit “Class” in every way will go a long way in returning some semblance of sanity to the crumbling social mores of the country at large. It will be a pleasure to watch the Trump family set high standards for our youth. I also think Trump is going to get some of that government intrusion you speak of out of our lives. I expect stricter adherence to the Constitution and believe that is what he is saying when he stresses Law and Order. I think Trump is a Constitutionalist and will return at least some of the old America to its people, God willing.
