Adjusting to a new president

[Most Lee Harmless]

is it not amusing that during the campaign, the Trump camp implied it would cause social unrest if he lost the vote, for that would mean it was rigged : but he wins the vote with allegations of foreign interference which, it seems are 'alternative facts' that can be safely ignored.
The trump camp also implied that a Clinton victory would cause armed insurrection amongst gun supporters and thought that a good thing in defence of their 'rights'.
So, Trump wins and opposition becomes 'unpatriotic, illegal, undemocratic and damn bad form!
One rule for him, another rule for the rest of us : the 1% win again. watch those corporate taxes get cut far deeper than any social program cuts will pay for.

Lol. A president that does not believe in Global Warming. A secretary of education who doesn't know a damn thing about education. As well one that is rooting for the elimination of public schools.

2017 is looking bright.

well to be honest our public education isn't very good in my opinion. way better then nothing but it could use some major changes. but yeah things don't look too good, but just gotta hope for the best.

Total elimination of public education or severe budget cuts is the goal.

Pretty sure those aren't actual reforms to "better public education." Just trying to scrap the entire thing.


Global warming is going to bite. Especially since our representative to the UN does not believe in Global warming either.

Insane to think we will soon be the ONLY country in the world who does not believe global warming. And since we are in the Security council, you might as well kiss away any important reforms for the next 4 - 8 years.

yeah, that would not be a good thing at all. its not like public schools are well funded to begin with, so even just budget cuts would hurt. honestly we should change our system to be similar to Japan's. 6 school days, no summer vacation, and instead have smaller breaks throughout the year. change the curriculum to where every student isn't forced to learn things they will never use, and instead teach them what the things they could really benefit from.

some things really need to change about public schools if the government completely got rid of funding for public schools the one i currently go to wouldn't go under although a ton would.

[Donald Trump]

Kinda tired of Republic presidents constantly saying, "We will improve the American Army."

Haven't we gone far enough? We nearly quadruple second place in spending. There is absolutely no need for "more spending." The way I see it, some budget cuts need to be made. Too much going into the army, and too little going into the people's need. I think the proxy war versus ISIS which is really US vs Russia is not a means of national importance. It is a utter waste of resources.

Another attempt to destabilize the Middle East just so we can show Russia who has the bigger wallet. Apparently once was not enough.

yeah take some of that and put it into schools or maybe towards that massive freaking debt
