I have been quite enamored by our new President elect, Donald Trump.

At first I thought he was a buffoon. Someone who had never been given adequate discipline because he had a silver spoon in his mouth. I thought he would be tossed aside in the riptide of politics and one of the more deserving candidates such as Ted Cruz or Mark Rubio would swim to the front. I was absolutely horrified when he became the only one to vote for as a Republican.

Then I did something different. Something I rarely do with politicians. I actually started listening to him. I didn’t pay attention to the media because they were not objective. I paid attention to the debates. I started listening to news every chance I had. I would mostly listen to Fox but also danced between CNN and MSNBC. With every move he made I saw more clearly the brilliance that has been behind his success.

I love the confidence he exudes and his uncanny way of cutting through cow manure (bs) to get to the core of the problem. Even though he is not president yet, he is already taking long strides down the path of fulfilling campaign promises. Who would have thought a politician would ever do that?

I am excited that with his charisma we may become friends, instead of enemies, with Russia. My great grandfather actually came to America from Russia, so that country has always been close to my heart.

I am amused by how he has played hide and seek with the media. They have such undeserved power and he has thwarted that with his cunning intelligence. He doesn’t play by their rules. He has set his own rules. He tweets directly to the American public. Letting us know from minute to minute what he hopes to accomplish for our great country. He has changed the course of companies with just one tweet and helped save American jobs.

I have thanked God every day for this man and his hard working character.

Then then other day I noticed he had tweeted about his old show. The tweet is as follows: “Wow, the ratings are in and Arnold Schwarzenegger got “swamped” (or destroyed) by comparison to the ratings machine, DJT. So much for being a movie star-and that was season 1 compared to season 14. Now compare him to my season 1. But who cares, he supported Kasich & Hillary.”

I saw that tweet, shook my head and muttered. “What on earth was he thinking to tweet something like that?!!”
