Trump, Trains and Real "Shovel - Ready"

One of my friends gave me a great line today: "President Trump has done three years work in four days."

That about sums it up, at least so far.

And, apparently, the investors on Wall Street think so, too. After all, the Dow closed at 19,742 on January 19, which was 62 points lower than the prior close. In fact, all the Markets were substantially lower on the last full day of Barack Obama's Presidency.

And on Wednesday, January 25, four business days into the Trump Administration, the Dow finally hit, and then closed, over 20,000 for the first time ever. I don't know what you think, but I believe investors, both big and small, are confident that what they have seen since Friday is making them warm and fuzzy about America's future economy.

Restarting the pipeline, building a wall and freezing regulations where they are all point to people going back to work, with meaningful jobs, and being able to provide for their families while spending more money in all facets of the economy. This is the real meaning of "shovel - ready" jobs and opportunities.

Now, if I were a Member of Congress, whether as a Representative or as a Senator, I would rethink my narrow views of "all about me" and instead, hitch my @$$ to a seat on the Trump train. Being obstinate and obstructionist, like good old Senator Chucky is right now, is not going to work anymore with the American people. The people want action, not empty words, and want it done NOW.

This goes for the Senior Senator from Arizona, as well. We don't care about your moralistic, morose and delaying tactics, Johnny. We want America First.

Members of Congress, you seem to have forgotten that you work for us, We the People. President Trump understands this and said as much in his Inaugural Address. Maybe because he really is one of US and not one of YOU. But he gets it.

With apologies to the late, great Johnny Cash:

I hear a train a-coming, it's rolling 'round the bend. And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when. At least, not until January 20, when Trump stopped the draggin' on. But now that train keeps a-rollin', on down to San Antone. Right across America. From sea to shining sea.

People around the Country, join hands on the Trump Train. We are in for a great ride.

ALL Aboard!!
