Did some people not listen to his inaugural address or at least read something about it? He did not present himself as a savior. The main thing I got from his speech is that we are facing many serious problems that we will have to work together, sacrifice together, to solve. He believes we can but made it plain there are no easy, painless, quick answers. You almost get the impression some people want to see him fail. That makes no sense to me because it won't be him failing, it will be all of us.

Terrific. Did you already decide what you sacrifice first?
