Today, I mourn.  The inauguration of Donald J Trump made everything real for me.  Change is definitely here... just not the change that I can believe in.  The change that I believed in is reversing before my very eyes. With that being said, I mourn the greatness, the hope, the realized dreams, AND of course, the great change that President Obama ushered in along with his presidency.   On this day, I mourn.

Seeing Barack Obama board his helicopter with the exiting first lady, Michelle Obama, was my breaking point.  I cried.  I cried long and hard, realizing that I was watching the epitome of style, grace, and intellect vacate America's House.  Tears of fear stream down my cheeks, due to the inexperience of the Trump Administration

                                                

 January 20, 2017 also marked the day that America was forced to bear witness to the outlandish lies that Donald Trump will disseminate on a daily basis. Don't get me wrong, many politicians have been accused of lying.  The difference here is that the untruths spewed by our incoming president are unnecessary at best.

The evidence does not support the fantasy that the Trump Administration is trying to convey.... Period


2. "We will follow two simple rules, Buy American,  Hire American."                 - Donald Trump, Inauguration 2017

How can you force other American companies to buy american & hire american when you in fact hire labor from overseas? I'm truly perplexed.

I'm being quite honest when I say: My expectations for this administration is low.  Any person that would have followed President Obama would have some HUUUGE (trump voice) shoes to fill.  The problem is that President Trump has decided to throw out those shoes and make his own foot steps in the yellow-stained snow.   With that being said, are you in mourning? Tell me why, below.
