How a Democratic House Could Work With Trump




In The Editorial Board article, “How a Democratic House Could Work With Trump,” the author argues that President Trump made may promises during his run for office, but has felt short on completing all those promises. President Trump is too busy storming the southern boarders and trying to find the way for Mexico to build the boarder wall, instead on trying to find a way to reduce prescription medication cost for Medicare patients.  It seams that Trump completely forgot about all his promises once he got to office, yes of course he has worked highly on his promise to secure the boards and make it harder for immigrant workers to get jobs in the United States.

The author provides enough evidence to support his claim for example, in 2016 Mr. Trump promised to deliver a plan immediately after getting elected. That priority went nowhere with this Congress, then later he guaranteed that after midterms he would provide it. “It further muddles matters that Mr. Trump’s words often seem to contradict his actions, as when he portrays himself as champion of coverage for pre-existing conditions even as he urged Congress to vote to repeal Obamacare without replacing it or as his administration declines to defend the provision against legal challenges.

The author provides a sense of hope once the November elections are concluded hoping that more Democrats are elected and have a better control of the law making.  In all if it helps the country and the people to have more Democrats in office to get things done, I agree. Hopefully Trump starts changing his way of thinking and starts getting more hands on with the Medicare situations. Helping many Americans on a day to day basic.

 I agree with the author, Trump should start focusing on some or all his promises if he wants a chance at re-election. President Trump should stop talking and start providing evidence that he actually care about the things he says to his followers.  Believe it or not people take that into consideration when they are voting, and if you failed to fulfill your previous promises they are more likely not to believe you anymore.

Hillary Clinton's Master class in Distraction


In Michelle Cottle article, “Hillary Clinton’s Master class in Distraction”, she emphasizes that Hillary is still upset with her electoral loss against Donald Trump. Mrs. Clinton has tried to get more popularity among the citizens of the United States, but sadly she is only contradicting herself and making more people dislike her.  Hillary has become a popular topic among Republicans during their reelection campaigns, the Republicans talk about how Hillary says that President Trump should be hold accountable for the sexual misconduct claims against him, yet nothing was done when a woman said she was raped by Mr. Clinton in 1978.

Cottle provides evidence to support her claim that Hillary is out to destroy President Trump and his followers. For example, she mentions that on October 9,2018 Mrs. Clinton sat down with CNN and said, “You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about.” Again here Mrs. Clinton is talking about President Trump and how she see’s him as a treat to the United States. Her main goal is to impeach Trump just to prove a point that he is not the best person to be in office and not focusing on what is best for the nation.  Hillary hopes to accomplish that by finding anything she can to dirty his name and make people hate him.

Cottle expresses frustration in her article, for example when she mentions the upcoming elections Democrats and Republicans should be focusing more on talking about health care and jobs rather than talking about impeachment or non-important matters. Cottle is trying to shed light on some of the nonsense Hillary is doing in order to gain popularity with out success.

I agree with Cottle, I believe Mrs. Clinton should focus on what’s best for the Nation rather than focusing on just President Trump. Hillary should try to gain citizens trust or votes by proving she is the right person and what her intensions really are instead of distracting herself with certain matters she has no proof for.  If the allegations against Trump are true or not are uncertain but only time will tell.

Although Haley has not always agreed with President Trump with the ways he addresses some issues at the White House, Haley has put those differences aside and focused on what was good for the nation. Haley addressed the sexual misconduct against Trump in a past interview with CBS Haley said, “I think any woman who has felt violated or felt mistreated in any way, they have every right to speak up.” This is a must read article for those that was to know more about Nikki Haley and what plans she has in the future politics.
