I now have lived under fourteen leaders of my country. I believe this current president will be most interesting. :nod:

(ancient Chinese curse: "May you live during interesting times")

Love him or hate him, you just need to survive the four years.

A lot of damage can be done in 4 years.

I do think he'll do good on the economy. At least I'm hoping so. He's already apparently done some good ... i.e. Ford, Fiat-Chrysler, high cost of some military acquistions. Not bad since he wasn't even in office yet. :wish:

Your system of government is based on a 4 year safety valve. If there is a problem with the system, that's not Trump's fault.

Actually, I'm fairly impressed these first few days ... especially his meeting with union leaders and hearing them say some good things about the meeting. Nice opening move.

Not sure if 'interesting' is the right word....

In China, the interesting times referred to were times of civil unrest and conflict. This saying was a curse.
