As we look at the state of affairs today, it’s surprising to see the media’s reaction to President Trump’s current approval ratings. Even the folks over at CNN, known for their less-than-friendly stance toward Trump, are astonished. With about 70% of people believing he’s doing what he promised, one has to wonder if we’ve entered some kind of alternate reality. It’s almost like this president is delivering on campaign promises. Who would have thought that keeping one’s word could earn political points?
President Trump’s approval is on the rise, even compared to his first term. The numbers suggest that more Americans are pleased with his actions this time around. Trump remains in positive territory every day of his second term so far. What’s even more telling is that one in five Democrats think he’s doing a good job. Imagine that! Even Democrats, who typically can’t stand paper straws, seem to appreciate Trump’s stance on the matter. Good governance pairs nicely with practicality, who knew?
Trump’s common-sense approach shines through his policy decisions. From cutting waste and tackling fraud to securing the border and returning to the good old plastic straws, Trump is making changes that resonate with everyday Americans. His emphatic stand against paper straws, which fall apart faster than a celebrity marriage, is just one example of his commitment to normalcy. It turns out that sometimes the path to approval is paved with small, yet impactful changes.
And while the president is pinching pennies, he’s also considering larger-scale solutions. Trump suggests selling off excess federal land and properties to trim our national debt—a bold move indeed. By tackling the bloated federal budget, Trump seems to be doing what other presidents have missed. It’s like he’s playing Monopoly with real estate while others are focused on collecting rent. Every penny counts, or at least it should when you’re running a country.
Ultimately, Trump’s current strategy appears to focus on uncovering fraud and abuse within the government. This approach, although daunting, is quite refreshing. Why let the government vampires continue draining taxpayer dollars? Finding and eliminating waste is like closing your wallet and seeing who cries loudest. It’s about time that someone in power took serious steps to manage this nation’s finances like a business, or like a shrewdly run household. As the Trump era progresses, it will be fascinating to see just how much change he can bring.
