I voted for Trump. I don't regret my voice.

I voted for President Donald Trump because I assumed that he would grab the bull on the horns as he always does – and on some things he has – but if I am honest, what he did is a real disappointment. I can't say that I feel hopeful, so this part bothers me.

Everyone says: “Social security will disappear” or “it could be tailored”, but tell me the following: How can this happen? We have paid in that for years and now you say that it may not be there? It is not a claim – we, we the people who paid for it!

The administration points to all of these waste and all this money that we have spent on it – and we can afford to send billions from dollars to other countries to “help” even if it is not clear – but we cannot repair social security? It makes no sense.

If at all, the social security benefits should be doubled, but nobody wants to touch them.

I think the crazy man of the man, but Senator Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont, had a very valid point about the expansion of social security benefits. If Trump could do that, he would be a real hero. I thought maybe he would add it as a priority in these first 100 days, but it seems as if he were just putting it back into the background.

I don't have a second thought about my voice. At least there is someone who finally does something, and we knew that it would be a bumpy ride to do what to do. We have to drive it out and knew that that would go in.

If he can repair everything else in the economy and do this tariff, open our trade again and open our energy. This helps in the long run. But I know people who are retired and I see what they get and I just can't understand why this is not a priority. I have never said anything other than “We are working on it” – and I think we all know what that means.

Trump's rocky start will end well

The news media play the fact that Trump has the lowest approval rate of his first 100 days than every president of this century in various surveys. Some experts are actually dizzy. I watch this media circus and wonder if these people have ever heard the Sport -Axiome: “It's not the way you start, it is how you are done.”

Trump has his professional and political resume the gigantic duo of success of the greatest comeback in the American business history and the greatest comeback in US political history. In fact, the man even has the book with the title “The Art of Comack!”

Somebody really believes someone who takes glee in its difficult start to try to solve for a generations that America is being used in stores that dancing on his grave will agree?

As President Ronald Reagan said about his strategy for the Cold War: “We win, they lose.” I assume that President Trump will come out of the tension in the trade war and that the history of all time will be the greatest president of all time by introducing the golden age.

Trump's greatest performance in his first 100 days? Create chaos.

What did I see in Trump's first 100 days? I saw the chaos that was created in the dismissal of government employees. The upgrading approach for tariffs; the appointment of cabinet members that are clearly based on behavior and are not qualified in the role; Individuals deported without proper procedure; and use of the illegal import of drugs and drug components from Mexico and Canada as a premise for stressful tariffs.

I support the efforts to manage our limits, especially with regard to illegal drugs. I support it to force China to behave for fair practice.

But what Trump has achieved the most is chaos. I expect us to go into a recession due to its practices with tariffs.

What I hope will do so next? Actually pay attention to reality.

Trump destroys the things that made America great

Trump disassembled and destroy the things that America did great. Our founding fathers created America to be a constitutional republic. This is special, which increased America's fame over other countries and gave its citizens a uniform pride.

I can't support anything Trump has done because I now understand that his agenda is selfish.

The government he wants is not for every person in America. I am very concerned because he tries to change the laws. He is actively working on removing the controls included in our constitution in order to achieve complete power. I am also concerned about his cruel treatment of others.

Trump wants to be a great global leader, but he lacks the real strength to be a great guide. He is arrogant and has no sympathy for people. He refuses to take responsibility for things he did wrong. Instead, he blames someone else.

I voted for him, but now I'm very concerned. Trump ruins our economy. He is too irrational and radical in his actions for everyone with a brain to ignore. He and he alone that falls our economy.

We feel short -term pain for the necessary long -term profits

Trump was most successful in securing the border and, despite the efforts of his opponents to stop him, people who are illegally in the United States.

It will take some time for its economic policy to occur. The market storm is due to emotional investors who react in the short term and long -term. If we keep the course, we will see a better trade balance, a migration from companies to America and lower unemployment.

The problem with politics is that it is always in the best interest of a politician to do things that make a short -term profit regardless of the long -term effects. Trump is not a politician. In the long run, his economic policy is intended to improve things rather than at short notice. Regardless of what someone thinks about Trump, it should be painfully obvious that we cannot continue on the economic path where we were all my life.

We have to lower the expenses. I want these public programs to be available to my children, and if something is not done today to change the course, these advantages will not be there for long. Trump's efficiency of the Ministry of Government is a start, but unfortunately it will remove more than waste and fraud to solve our debt problem. My concern is that we will continue to step along the street.

If he can achieve half of this, he will have achieved more than any other president in my life (which is a fairly long time).
