Please do, but don't just write sticky notes. Get into the weeds and for example, write an essay how the U3 rate is affected by the creation of low paying jobs making it appear that everyone is laughing all the way to the bank.
So you are expecting the government to make sure the private sector is fair and providing good jobs for people. And you expect Donald Trump to lead this charge? He has such a wonderful history with bankruptcies, not paying people and running casinos into the ground. The person who has abused the system and cast workers aside is all of a sudden the person to fix it?
How is this different than welfare? I'm trying to understand the difference between somebody in a rust belt state sitting at home not trying to learn new skills or relocate while they expect the government to help provide good paying jobs in their depressed little towns and somebody in the urban projects and expecting to be taken care of by the government as well. I see no difference
I am sure you understand the price of gas, and the stock market have little to do with the job a president is doing. We could do the same by going back and checking the situation when Obama had been in office a year or so; or even Reagan. You are right about only one thing: the honeymoon phase. Yes, he will be in that for the first 6 months to a year.
For half the country Trump will have no honeymoon phase whatsoever. Not only do I not think Trump would win a second term, I doubt he will even run.

Way to early to know anything about 2020. Presidential elections are about individual candidates so it will depend on how Trump does and if the Democrats can find someone who both doesn't alienate White voters but still gets minorities out to vote.
Geez, the man hasn't even served one term yet. Are you serious? We may not be around to see another term if he ticks China off badly enough.......
