January 20th has come and gone, and discussion of
both what is currently happening and what lies ahead under President Donald J.
Trump has completely taken over the airwaves.
Nearly all political discourse now is dedicated to determining what his
agenda will be, what Congress’ agenda will be, and how we will deal with
everything. This is somewhat normal, as
a new president naturally means changes in policies, but Trump is not a normal
president, or even a normal human being.
His campaign has divided us in ways not seen since the Civil War, and,
as such, there is virtually no agreement on how we should approach a Trump
presidency, or on how we should react to his policies and plans.
Republicans and Conservatives, particularly those that voted
for/supported him, are trying to be a voice of reason in this confusion. They are mostly suggesting a “wait and see”
attitude, which, generally speaking, isn’t a terrible idea. Liberals and Democrats, on the other hand,
loathe everything about Trump, and many have pledged to oppose every word out
of his mouth, to refuse to work with him on ANYTHING. So who is correct? Which is the right path to follow?
