How Many Days Has Trump Been In Office?

At the time of my writing this, we are just a few minutes over 74 days.

I can not put my finger on it and can't point out many specifics but, I have noticed that things are changing more rapidly than they had in the past few years.

What I see is what we already knew.

 After the Keystone pipeline is completed, there will not be thousands of jobs available at the pipeline. There will probably be less than one-hundred jobs at the pipeline which is probably a good thing because we want it to run clean and we don't want to have clean-up crews working to recover the flora and fauna that was damaged because of a leak. The Dakota pipeline is probably about the same but, this is America and we are going to try to answer every question and eliminate every potential problem any citizen can think of.

Healthcare is out of control and Trump's rapid repeal and replace got hit hard. I have been asking my friends about their healthcare plans and whether they are veterans or civilians, they shake their head and sigh. I believe that this started when President Clinton was in office and The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 was signed into law. I know a number of people that benefited from the act and their success is nothing but an inspiration but, in my experience I need to make another phone call to the doctor's office because everybody that schedules appointments is gone for the day by the time my appointment is finished. It's kind of creepy being the last person at the office but, I do turn the lights off even though nobody tells me to and it smells funny too, because everybody has left their dirty, styrofoam plate from lunch in the trash can.

Today, I heard rumors that the country's infrastructure may move into the spotlight. I know that you have all been anxious to hear more about that! The future of our infrastructure means the healthcare workers can get to work. It means that we have more roads to run our cars on. It means that we will have fancy, new gas stations and then too, we will all be able to use styrofoam plates because we will all have the opportunity to get take-out food more often. More cool buildings with parking lots for us to get our to-go orders that will make us fat so we'll be needing more nature trails so we can walk away those calories. You know that I say it's all connected.

Whether you were for Trump or against him during that nasty election, he is the individual that is the President of The United States. Based on my experience, my little business is seeing a lot of activity. So much activity that if it continues this way I will need help before the end of this year. I think that's a good thing. I will probably Tweet President Tump and tell him when my company outsources work to an American company.
