Trump’s Economic Era

                 The  election  of  Donald  Trump  has  all  the
            hallmarks of an about-face for America, although he
            has a hard row to tow. Can he turn things around? Can
            he make real change possible? Can he repair our broken
            house  and  make  America  great  again?  He  has  a
            majority in the Senate, and in the House, he even has a
            majority  of  state  governors,  but  will  enough
            Republicans follow his lead, or will they succumb to
            their  old  ways  and  put  politics  ahead  of  financial
            reform? Or will some not support him because he is not
            one of their own?
                 Then there is the increase in military spending, the
            expense of building a wall on Mexico’s border, and
            increases in infrastructure spending. Can we grow the
            economy enough so that we do not have to increase the
            20  trillion dollars of national debt?

                 In  a  speech,  President  Trump  gave  to  the
            Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) he
            stated:
                       “Our victory was a win like nobody
                   has  ever  seen  before,  and  I  am  here
                   fighting for you, and I will continue to
                   fight for you. The victory and the win
                   was something that really was dedicated
                   to a country and a people that believe in
                   freedom, security, and the rule of law.
                   Our victory was a victory and a win for
                   conservative values.”

                   In a later speech, President Trump has stated:
                       “The time for trivial fights are behind
                   us. We just need the courage to share
