There were millions and millions that voted for Trump. Among them were people that are rightly frustrated with the system looking for a shake-up, there were people who are uncomfortable with the quickly-changing demographics of our country, there were people whose economic desires drove their decision, and there were people who voted for Trump because they felt that he was genuinely the best choice for our country.
Regardless of their motivations, I feel that all of those groups have been sold the Golden Gate Bridge, and will be disappointed. As we're seeing Trump is surrounding himself with the 'swampy' career politicians and corporate influences that his campaign promised to root out, his ideas on immigration, deportation, and border security would be unbelievably difficult to implement in any form resembling what he promised, the economic system that he plays with is the very system that is imperiling the middle class in the first place, and he's making himself an ass out of himself on twitter and in the face of the diplomatic world (except maybe in Putin's eyes).
The thing is, I can't do anything but hope he exceeds my expectations. I want Trump to do well, to make life better for Americans as a whole, and to strengthen our economy. But I just have zero faith that he's capable of doing that with the things he's promised to do, and he's equally as incapable of taking criticism or compromise.
I desperately hope that he proves me (and his other critics) wrong.
