Your question is loaded with a class warfare tone. By and large Americans will do better in all economic classes.

Nobody can turn it around in one year, Trump included. It's not fair to expect that. But I am concerned about the disasters his decisions will bring to this nation - on all fronts. For the sake of America, I hope I'm wrong. In his position his failures aren't his personal failures anymore.

Worst, except for the rich.

But I think that the biggest effects will be after two or more years.

Better, I would hope. But we will wait and see.

After the last eight years things can only get better over the next year.

I think the trumpster and joe the plumber have equal political experience. Trump has demonstrated that he's a sociopath. Joe the Plumber is an unknown quantity. That makes Joe a better pick for our next president than the donald.

I'm guessing the greedy 1 percent are loving the election of trump. The non-greedy wealthy, and most everyone else, not so much.

People need to do what is best for them and not rely on "who is PResident" and what is the gov't. going to do for me.
The same people that are not doing well today will most likely continue to struggle in the future because they do not help themselves.
Many blacks thought that Obuma was the answer to all their problems.

Plus a suitable strict constitutionalist new SC justice to properly replace the superb Justice Scalia.
There's absolutely no way to predict what will happen, regardless of who is in office. Except for maybe if the president didn't believe anything the country's intelligence agencies had to say, to the extent that the president publicly mocked their incompetence. But that's a preposterous scenario that would never happen.
