Trust

Trusting our leaders and their intentions has proven to be a historical loss for the people.  Our futures have been considered expendable as the politicians feather their own nest by way of the finances of the top one per cent of America.  You know, the Wall Street corporate interests and the investor class that flood the Halls of Washington with their treachery.  Mr. Trump, you ran a victorious presidential campaign for the people, giving us an interest again in our government.  While our support and trust remains, in this post-election season, we the forgotten, powerless, deplorable little people are concerned. 

What is happening with the stock market?  The Trump bump, as it has been called, suggests that the investor class has been given an under the table signal that a Trump administration will first protect the interests of these upper crust folk, resulting in a further debasement of the working class.  This may be an unfounded assessment, the rise in the market could also be explained as a reaction to your promised pro-growth economic measures but the bump may foreshadow a deal made with the old failed priorities.  Why the bump, President elect Trump?
   
Will you continue the destructive paper money flow from the Federal Reserve with zero interest rates, thereby signaling business as usual?  This so-called economic policy has made an economy that works for the people impossible and sets the country up for another 2008 catastrophe.  We voted for a change, plain and simple.  The government you are forming seems to be the wealthiest grouping of the rich to come to Washington, ever, are they reformers or co-conspirators with the swamp creators?
 
You, Mr. Trump, are sending mixed signals and we, your supporters, are nervous.  The most problematic choice that you are considering is that of Secretary of State, Mitt Romney, really?   This man made his millions as a free trade guru, he is the poster child for the economic inequity that has devastated the middle class.   You made your billions building great structures not working the system that has failed the people.  Keeping your enemies close cannot justify such a choice and it would be a slap in the face to the Trump train.  

Mitt Romney said many hurtful things about you in order to elect Hillary as president.  This was more than a difference of opinion, it was a betrayal. The investor class believed that her election was a better choice to protect their interests, what was good for the country was not important.  Should you choose Mr. Romney, you will be complicit with this protectionist agenda.  The Romney's of this country are the problem not a solution to the economic inequalities suffered by the middle class.  . 

Just ask President O’bama, how he now feels about choosing Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. How did that work out his legacy? 

Who are you Mr. Trump?
