AN AVERAGE CITIZEN EXERCISING THE RIGHT TO SPEAK - WILL TRUMP KASH IN?

The way to get started is to stop talking and begin doing. - Walt Disney
During walks - several times daily - the past week or so only sights and sounds of Nature, and like human pollution, have distracted thought.
I don't care what I have to say is irrelevant.
There's right and venue, and duty, so it is. Otherwise, risk losing the Constitutionally granted freedom.
Since elected, President Trump has filled his Cabinet with strong, mostly stellar, nominees and named others for critical positions. Most recently, Kash Patel as Director, FBI.
The future holders of great responsibility concern me less than the man announcing the nominations.
Does he have the stomach to do the necessary unpleasant?
Not to retaliate but to pursue competency and actual justice, American style blind, and do what is right regardless who the deserving party - whether President or peon?
Think back to the campaign leading up to the 2016 election.
Candidate Donald Trump said, publicly, "I don't want to hurt the Clintons."
Poor and wrong decision.
While at the same time the Clintons, et al., schemed to destroy Donald Trump and his family.
Candidate Trump said he would declassify/release the files of the JFK assassination.
That did not happen.
Whatever President Trump's explanation nonsensical for the killing that happened 53 years earlier.
Just today a retired Marine friend sent a brief email passing along a quote attributed to Kash Patel: "I'd shut down the FBI building on day one and reopen it the next day as a museum of the deep state ... and I'd take the 7,000 employees who work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals."
Absolutely. Yes.
One stumbling block.
President Trump.
Will he do it?
Too there's talk about releasing Epstein and Diddy lists.
Absolutely. Yes.
One stumbling block.
President Trump.
Will he do it?
Etc.
I just started reading 'Confronting the Presidents - No Spin Assessments from Washington to Biden' by Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard.
Up to John Quincy Adams.
Their book is facts - insights on the shaping of boy to man and performance in office.
Rare is opportunity for a President to get a second chance, with President in between elections.
Donald Trump is uniquely positioned to correct first-term goofs; from poor advice to not trusting instinct.
More so, 'Make America Great Again' is his nine years pledge, his movement - goal.
He has opportunity to be the greatest President in history.
But opportunity is not results.
Unpleasant things, lots, must not be talked about but be boldly and quickly done, because they are necessary, to realize that pleasing goal.
He is surrounding himself with capable men and women who can damn sure carry out what he campaigned on and voters envision and crave.
He must unleash them! And back them.
Soon enough Americans learn if their faith and confidence in President Trump rightfully entrusted.
I'm optimistic, guardedly.

A sober, but accurate assessment; I share your guarded optimism; keep leaning forward.
Thoughts of MacBeth come to mind. If no action taken. Right, just, and with no remorse, we shall perish. Accountability a must. Trump’s Presidency will be forgotten and looked upon as a failure.

“Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing”.

As an Economist by education and avid hobby still, if everything Trump and his appointees are saying, I would expect that six months into his second term the unemployment rate will skyrocket. All those useless employees of equally useless bosses looking for a new job with a horrible resume'. At least I hope so. Come on Trump shut up and do it!
