Can Everybody Calm Down a bit?

i get that a lot of people are unhappy about Trump being sworn in, and if your really so pissed, just dont watch it. People dont seem to understand that it didn't matter who won the election, as people would still be mad. I'm asking can we all start acting like adults and just be respectful? He is our president if we like it or not. rather than talking about how bad he is, lets tell him what we want changed.

There has never been anyone like Trump elected to the office of US President, which is likely the most powerful job in the world. His policies, cabinet choices, and even his speech is extreme and indicates a complete change in how the American government and economy will function.

Those who love him are celebrating like mad, and those who do not are in a state of full blown panic. I think both responses are warranted. Moderate responses for a moderate. Extreme responses for an extremist.

I agree. but what people dont understand is 1 person cant ruin the country. The government is set up on purpose to make it impossible, even with the cabinet choices he has made. I do think it will be a big change. whether it turns out to be good or bad, we will just have to see.

I think there's certain things he can do and certain things he can't. But what he can do (and the GOP will go along with) is slash the budgets for the entire public sector, and cancel tons of regulation. So it'll be open season for corporations. If you're into that, it'll be party time. If you're not - that's terrifying.

Other things he won't be able to do at all. The Presidency is restricting. I think his stuff about foreign trade will amount to very little.

yeah. again we just will have to wait and see how it all turns out. I think that this election will make people take everything a bit more seriously next time ;)
