    Hey guys!

    So I honestly need to know (since I'm from Canada), how are you all feeling about the whole 'Trump being our president' thing and stuff? I honestly don't think that I know much about this situation so I wanted to hear your opinion!

    Thanks for sharing! Stay classy!

    My opinion is to have no opinion. If trump does something dumb, I have no say in it anyway.

    I think this is dumb, like who cares?

    It's not like America hasn't had bigoted presidents before. Plus, since the 50s are romanticized so much, maybe it's time America returns to that era.

    You're asking a forum full of children what they think... Pretty sure they don't know what a liberal or conservative is...

    Anyways, I personally think he'll be a good president. He has a business man mind, and we're a couple trillion in debt. Surely that'll help. And also, Donald Trump really doesn't have all the power everyone think he does. Most power is in the House of Representatives and Senate so Trump really doesn't have the ability to just screw up the entire nation in two seconds like everyone think he is trying to do.

    My family liked him for his business ideas until he banned almost over 100 million people from coming here. I get some people are trying to come here to stir trouble, but banning innocent people who were actually allowed to come here before he imposed this law,, I have a few friends who are from Iraq, their grandparents can't come to visit them until he lifts the ban.

    I also don't appreciate the Nazi article I found on the internet about an actor getting arrested for shoving someone who was telling him "Hitler did good things"

    The pipeline is really upsetting considering he's ruining my ancestors water supply, and he's harming people who live there.

    He claims he's pro life, but he was willing to make a statement saying that he should kill the families of terrorists.

    If you support Trump I have nothing against you, I don't judge off of political views. But if you are to the point where you are insulting people because of their religious beliefs, you're going too far.

    EX: I saw a post on instagram, and I reported it because of how disgusting it was. Saying that people should take off their clothes around Mosque's because if a muslim women sees another woman without clothes she must harm herself. <--- Posts that just insult people are cruel, lol. I wish some people understood that.

    Apparently Trump is also telling climate scientists to stop releasing that information because it's not true?
    I guess the ice caps melting is not true, aha.

    Overral, I think his business plans are a good idea, but his policies aren't so good, they're pretty gross.

    -

    This is my opinion, so i'd prefer to not get bashed about it. :p

    People overestimate his power. The president really cant do all that much, at least they arent supposed to. I dont like this whole "executive order" thing. We have 3 branches for a reason

    Each is bias in their own way. Definitely a solid example of a right-leaning one :)

    The trick is looking at multiple sources (Left and Right leaning maybe?) and analyzing the differences to determine what is persuasive instead of strictly informative, not always easy to do though (or worth caring much about imo).
