Number 45

       Well, today we have a new president. And while he doesn't yet have a cabinet, it's likely that he soon will and it will represent the .01% of America that he comes from. But it will be more than that. It will also have strong representation from the military. There are a very few exceptions including Gov. Rick Perry. He's not one of the .01% nor does he represent the military, he has, however, shown a strong desire to look out for the fossil fuel industry which will make the Koch brothers happy.
       Beyond his cabinet, there is his family who, it seems, will act as his defacto cabinet. They will also run his far flung businesses with a fun filled warning that if they don't make him even richer, he'll fire them. President Donald Trump was inaugurated yesterday as the 45th president of the United States of America.
       His family was dressed meticulously and his wife was especially well dressed. His campaign manager, Kelly Ann Conway was dressed like a little girl in a pretty military uniform. The highlight of the day was Mr. President's inaugural speech. It was an amateurish delivery of an amateurishly created address that left no confusion as to the isolationist approach to ruling Mr. Trump has intended for our country.
       President Donald Trump is the legitimately elected president of America. There is no question about that fact and it would be a good thing for our country if everyone just admitted it. Failing that, it would be helpful if our President ignored any and all complaints about his validity. His responsibility is to lead our country not engage in childish back and forth about how he lost the election or any other dig against him. Mr. President, grow a thicker skin.
