I seldom get excited about elections. Local. State. Whatever election it is I find them mostly boring and self-serving to those who are running.
But this election was something different. The man who finally won the presidency spent $100 million of his own money to achieve his goal. So even though he was crass and crude, us little guys somehow identified with him.
And you have to admit, that a man who owns and operates over 500 companies is no dummy. He may be used to getting his way, so this election was different territory for him. He had to persuade millions of people that he was a man who could clean up the corruption in Washington. He called it "draining the swamp." And I personally believe that he has a strong enough personality to achieve his goals.
The interesting part of this to me is that he's the first businessman who has won the presidency. He has no military experience, nor does he have political experience. He owes no favors to anyone so he can direct his administration into pretty much any direction he chooses to.
Some other interesting facts about him is that he's reportedly never smoked a cigarette or had a drink of alcohol in his entire life. Maybe he's a president who could be persuaded by some member of his staff to help fund a program like ours that doesn't depend upon government funding for anything.
A lot of liberals that I know who voted for the other side thought he was some kind of dummy. But in my opinion is just the opposite I think he's brilliant to the point of genius. You don't acquire the empire he has without mental discipline.
The one thing we should all keep in mind is that he loves this country as much as anyone else because it's provided him and his children with a wonderful life. I personally believe that he will do his best to make this "country great again,." Which was his campaign motto.
I'm praying that he maintains humility, and he gets everyone working together to achieve what is in our country's best interests
