“Make America Great Again”.
This is the promise President Trump made to Americans before he was elected.
For over five decades I have cataloged the monthly economic numbers that record the progress of the American economy. These figures do not lie. And not once over the decades have I looked at better results. So, has president Trump delivered? He has without doubt provided Americans what he promised. If you want a job, you have a job. It is just that simple. Moreover, wages are advancing. My grade for the president is a solid A+.
How can it be then that an unsatisfied minority of American socialist progressives are complaining that they and their cohorts deserve more? This is a natural course of events in every cycle, where those lacking the skill, proper training, or interest to contribute to a vibrant economy simply choose to sit back, palms extended upward seeking government handouts. Government is NEVER the answer.
As long as America remains populated by more contributors than non-contributors, all will remain well. Should the balance shift in favor of the non-contributors, open confrontation is likely, leading to a scary situation for the non-contributors.
Moving forward I see an energized president Trump introducing a second program of tax cuts, more aggressive deregulation of government, increased momentum in the placement of conservative judges, stronger emphasis on the second amendment, the Castle Doctrine, and Right to Work Laws. Family values will hold center court along with a powerful emphasis on pro-life values. Finally, President Trump will continue to deliver on his promise to seal America off from foreigners seeking entrance to America from countries with a history of radicalization and instability. Here I am of course thinking of problem makers from North Africa and the Middle East.
There is no reason why the President should not be successful on all fronts.
