TOP 5 THINGS ABOUT #TRUMP the #TWEETING Leader of the FREE WORLD

TOP FIVE things I've noticed since President Trump has taken office. #5 Things are happening fast. Love him or hate him, but another bill is being signed every day and they are pretty much what he'd promised in his campaign. #4 The world is in shock. Living outside the USA as I do, hardly a day goes by that I don't hear the name Trump mentioned by people that truly have nothing to gain or lose from this president's policies. The world is so uncertain, the old WILD CARD scenario is in play here. Not sure if that will be good or bad, but nobody seems to know what to make of a president whose TV shows are hilarious and on most people's cable package reruns every night. Is this real or is this entertainment. Hey, it's America, nothings real and absolutely nothing is entertaining anymore. #3 Americans are talking about politics. I have never been interested in the political comings and goings of my birth nation or any nation for that matter. But now, people are talking.  Truthfully I look at this differently and far too pessimistically as I actually don't believe anything ever changes. Big business is directing a global economy and leaders in nations don't dare cross them for fear of job layoffs or pipeline closings of oil or factory relocation, all of witch put politicians out of work quick. News channels that direct the public opinion are owned by these companies and sometimes by the politicians. The masses grumble about this or that, but while they protest in the streets or complain at the dinner table, what's really going on is far more insidious. The world is being terraformed, it's resources destroyed, it's people--desperate to keep their family in food and clothing--vote to chase any hope for a leader who will at least protect their job. #2 America can not in anyway or by any stretch of the imagination, hide the drastic divisions which exist in the country. I've never seen such hostility from one side and such admiration and celebration by another. It's sad to see these divisions so ostentatiously brought to light; however, as an American I've always known they were there and always hoped for generations to lessen these as our children's wisdom should undo our grandparent's ignorance. My ignorance was believing the next generation wouldn't just look at us for guidance. OOPS, we did it again. And the #1 thing I've noticed since President Trump has taken office is that his wife is really HOT.
