Opinion: The Truth About Trump

As if on cue after the election, those who supported Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton took to the streets in protest. Burning buildings in Oakland, California and vandalizing vehicles and buildings in downtown Los Angeles, proclaiming that “Love Trumps Hate”.

Trump flipped two of the most “Democratic” states, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. These two state are considered blue because Democrats have won them consistently for the last 40 years. Known as “Blue Wall States”, they  are usually counted as staples for Democratic candidates.

I am feeling hopeful for the country. The beauty of America is that we have extended rights to everyone. Sure there have been some dark times, and right now is one of those times. Caused by the media pushing their agenda in front of people to make some issues more prominent than others

For those who are angry because we did not elect the first woman president, we should always think of the important qualifications for any job. Those qualifications are not sex, race, or any other reason beyond who has the resume to do the job. If it seems like Trump is not educated in politics and government, that is one of the main reasons why the people elected him. He is a political outsider who is in it for the people.

Just look at some of the accomplishments Trump has made over Clinton. Trump was contracted to build the Wollman Rink in Central Park, He only spent under $750,000 of that budget.

This is not a country in which the media makes the decisions. It is the people who are in charge of that. And this time, the people spoke.
