Letter: Give Trump a chance to lead this nation

Donald Trump was known to be one of the world’s best businessmen years before being elected to office.

It is frustrating that the people of the United States and the media have not gave him a fair chance since the day he said he was running for office.

He is looking out for the United States’ best interests, and the things he is wanting to put in place are controversial because I feel that the United States is becoming so coddled.

Everyone wants to point a finger at someone when something goes wrong, and he is always the scapegoat.

With many things going wrong in our country, I think it would make a world of difference if we all came together and supported him.

If the media, celebs and many others belittle every move we make, we will make no progress as a nation.
