Jake Tapper on CNN said it best after the inauguration speech when he stated it was the most radical inauguration speech ever.
The only other speech in modern times that I remember where it wasn't just a "say-nothing of importance" speech was JFK's inauguration speech.
JFK actually called on the country to DO something. Since then...it's seemed to me that these speeches have been sort of "throwaways".
But today's was very different. Whether you like or hate Trump, I think you have to give him credit for having the balls to say what he did in his speech today.
AND to say it while surrounded by the very establishment policians he was calling out.
I like what he had to say. It's the way I've felt for a long time...that the govt. is RULING over us instead of governing and that most of the country truly has been left behind.
I'm hopeful that he is able to overcome the establishment in Washington D.C. and actually turn the ship around.
And if he can't...well, I guess we'll be no better off than if Hillary had won.
