America 2025

The Trump Presidency has officially arrived and if there’s one thing I’m certain of is that this will be a much more interesting political climate than the last four years.

My stance going into the Trump Presidency is to remain positive and hope that he proves me wrong. Like it or not, he’s our President and there’s going to be changes that take place. I hope these big changes promised actually turn out to be the right thing for this country.

On the positive end, it does seem that Trump is aligning himself with much more positive advisors. Controversial as they may be, I’d rather see Trump advised by Elon rather than Steve Bannon. There is hope that he’s learned a lot from his last Presidency and he’s much more effective this time around to enact positive change.

On the scary side, Trump’s divisive rhetoric is worrisome. I don’t know what Elon’s intention was with his salute, but it was not great for the optics one way or another. I fear that we are once again giving people a platform for racism and xenophobia.

I’m an optimist so I’m going to remain hopeful for our country.
