Blog Stage 7


Chris Cilia from CNN wrote an article about Donald Trump who discusses his feelings towards his job as being President in an interview with Reuters, called "Donald Trump sounds like he really misses not beingpresident." Cilia explains in great detail the facts on what Trump was hoping for when he was running for presidency stating  “that he had almost zero idea of what being president would entail when he started running for the office.” This clearly explains how unprepared and how amateur our president. With the amount of promises he assured that would accomplish towards those in need, specifically those who are desperate for affordable health care, when it comes to Trump he really has not accomplished anything he said would in his first 100 days. It is completely understandable that one thing such as affordable healthcare may not be covered in just one hundred days but a little progress makes a big difference, but the only progress that Trump has done so far is being focusing more on his conflict with North Korea rather than protecting his country and his peoples’ needs. The fact that our own president is basically stating how badly he misses his old life signifies how incapable he is taking the role as a leader. One rule that every leader should follow is being able to withstand any problem no matter how difficult it is, but to also prove that he is able to handle any problem that heads towards his way and to show his people what he is capable of doing. Instead Trump proves that is not able to confront issues as people hoped he would. It is disappointing to see our very own president struggling doing his role in just over 100 days, who knows what we would expect from him after four years.

commentary #1

In my colleague's blog, "Freedom Writer," they care to address how the chemical chlorpyrifos, a crystalline organophosphate insecticide, is extremely toxic to children affecting them psychologically and physically. I most definitely agree with my colleague that this "insecticide" should be removed from all produce due to its dangerous chemicals that are leading to these terrible outcomes. Especially when it comes to normal people who are completely allergic to insecticides, such as my mother, it is very difficult for her to find the right produce without causing her to have an allergic reaction. I truly believe that the CDC or Office of Disease Prevention And Health Promotion need to do their job in protecting people rather than letting a hazardous chemical continue to spread to millions, and affect them. Rather than caring for the money they want to make, they should be caring about the health of the people like they are supposed to.
