"The Struggle is Real," the most accurate phrase of 2017. This blogger, couldn't have summed it up any better on her blog, "Justmythoughts78.blogspot.com". 2017 seems to have been an experiment for the president to see what he could get away with for the following years ahead. It's scary and disappointing to have a democracy undermine the American people; the very people it's meant to serve, help and support. User "Fre_Fre" has said everything that has been on everyone's minds since Donald Trump was elected. I completely agree with her recent post of National Government going to complete trash since Donald Trump was elected.
However, well written her opinions may be, I feel she should have some article to further expose Donald Trump to what kind of person he is. Everyone knows he's racist, misogynistic and orange; but there could have been some way to use logos and ethos to appeal to the reader's sense of logic, not just their emotions. Blog user, Fre_Fre could have made her argument more effective if she were to add links to his simple tweets, or some of his infamous decision in office. She could have used something that could have appealed to the readers other than her argument for pathos.
Despite not having hard evidence along with her discussion, she does bring up some very valid points about Donald Trump's presidency tactics. When asked about very significant sensitive topics, he tries to distract the press with the mindless banter of terrorist in foreign countries, and racist ideas to help "Make America Great Again." I feel like overall he's uncooperative, and too me manifestly unfit to be a fair and just president. Fre_Fre's blog post on the matter was very entertaining to read, it was enjoyable and a bit informative.

Post 7: Commentary on U.S National Government
In a former post on my blog, blog post number 5, I had discussed the ban on Transgender troops in the military. The article by Dave Phillips, "Judge Blocks Trump’s Ban on Transgender Troops in Military." explains the discriminatory decision Donald Trump had made against fellow Americans serving in the army because he felt transgender soldiers were a "hassle" and weren't capable of serving. Although I've discussed the issue, I feel like I haven't given my proper opinion on the personal attacks against the transgender community made by Donald Trump. This is why I'm going to retouch upon the topic. Since Judge Colleen Kollar Kottely had shut down his ban, there has been a positive reaction from some politicians in office standing up for the soldiers who would be affected. As well as making sure that Donald Trump's decisions will no longer go unaccounted for. For some unexplainable reason, Donald Trump has been able to get away, as well as go around specific issues on the well being of millions of Americans. Opening the window for racist, malice and corrupt people to get away with more. The decisions he's made, the remarks, as well as negligence he's shown so far throughout his presidency, are appalling. It's the president's job to uphold a specific standard of conduct, any other position he's had before the administration should not be his excuse for him to act the way he does. Attacking the transgender community, people of color and those standing up for the rights of others has never been more of a significant problem, Americans as a whole nation should address and help fix. There needs to be more done to stop such an incapable person speaking for millions, making decisions that don't support anyone except people like himself. I genuinely disagree with everything Doland Trump stands for. The ban he tried to see forward against the Transgender soldiers was a prime example of how his decisions were made purely on his own bias beliefs, instead of the significant good of the nation.
