Cleaning the closet

by Grace Wilson, Stevensville

Has your closet, or garage, ever become such a mess that it was no longer usable for the purpose for which it was built? Then one day you decide to really clean it out good. At first when this process began, it seemed like a worse mess than you had. But as the sorting out, throwing away, keeping only what is needed and putting things where they belong, it began to make progress. After some time and much effort you had a great functional, clean closet, or garage again.

It’s the same thing with our government. Over the years it has become so messed up, corrupt, and distorted, it was no longer functional for the purpose it was created. Then we had an election and President Trump won against overwhelming odds. Now he is cleaning up that horrible mess. He is doing exactly what the people wanted him to do. Just what he promised to do. Most folks appreciate this and understand that it takes time. A “clean” government doesn’t happen overnight.

But what is all this whining and complaining I hear and read about? Are you complaining that Pres. Trump is trying to make America better for us? He loves this country. Be thankful he is putting so much effort into making America great again. Stop griping and finding fault with every move he makes. Instead, support him, work with him, and give him a chance to change things. You will be much happier if you do, and so will the folks around you.
