It wasn't a speech that uplifted the country - it was the same type of rhetoric during his
campaign. I was hoping he would let that go since his audience was not only Americans but the
world as well.
well, I would be lying if I say that I am not a little bit scared or concerned because Trump is unpredictable and he doesn't seem like a "let's work together" type of person to be completely honest.
But this said, What Trump did was acknowledge that we are fully-empowered citizens and that government will, return to working with us and for us rather than over us. (if this is the case, than bravo)
Leftist media have called his speech "insulting." Why? Because they hate Trump.
I found his speech uplifting. It's a new day in America. The sun has come out. The gloom is gone. I wake up in the morning and am optimistic. I am energized. I am no longer depressed. I see a bright future.
Already, he has accomplished much. Federal regulations are going to be rolled back. These regulations have been a stumbling block to everything that would contribute to growth and prosperity. They have been treated in the past almost like Scripture; one dare not touch them. It would be like blasphemy to question or roll back any of them. Thus, the Federal Register keeps growing and growing. Businesses devote as much if not more time to understanding and complying with regulations than they do in developing and building products.

Is the murder in the inner city like Chicago not a carnage? That's a normal and fantastic life to you?
It's also a metaphor. Have you been to the states where they lost nearly all manufacturing jobs? Is that not a business carnage?
Get real. While there are few inner city Chicago and Detroit type examples, there are alls sorts of cities that are doing just fine.
Some states have indeed lost their manufacturing jobs. Times have changed. Technology and automation have eliminated a lot of manufacturing jobs. Those jobs are gone forever. Thousands of jobs have been coming back over the last several years as automation and technology makes American labor competitive again.
"Sixty thousand manufacturing jobs were added in the U.S. in 2014, versus 12,000 in 2003, either through so-called reshoring, in which American companies bring jobs back to the U.S., or foreign direct investment, in which foreign companies move production to the U.S., according to a study from the Reshoring Initiative."Record number of manufacturing jobs returning to America - MarketWatch
Life rolls on, just as it always have. When there were no jobs in the south, people moved north. When the dust bowl hit, people headed west. When jobs on the iron range in Minnesota dried up, people moved to Alaska where the work was.
It's not carnage, it's the way the world works. Things change. Life rolls on. You either roll with it or get rolled over.
I loved it because it made me laugh. Especially this:
"....an education system, flush with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of all knowledge."
Really Donald? All knowledge? Not just, they didn't get a good education, but the teachers apparently have some doomsday device to wipe all knowledge from the brains of our poor children.
8 yrs of Obamas indoctrination centers is over, no more dumbing down of our youth.
