The article I decided to research is called "Donald Trump writing own "short" Inaugural speech". Trumps idea for his inaugural speech was to make a short but impactful speech to get the message across to million of viewers. President Trump decided that it would be more important to him and mean more to the citizens of the USA to make and write it himself, he also wanted it to be short due to not wanting people standing out in the cold. With in his speech he talked about many of his upcoming plans such as education, infrastructure, border control, state of military, and jobs for US citizens. He also talked about bringing America back together as one and working together to be the best we can be. On this topic I feel Trump made a good decision on making the speech short and to the point I also agree with him writing it himself. When you write or do something yourself it makes you more familiar with it or more into it. This subject ties into what we are doing in class because we just recently have been working on presidency and continue to work on politics. This article was seen from a republicans point of view as is mine.

The blog post I decided to research and write about was called "US talks tougher on Iran but sticks with deal...for now". This article was researched on CNN.com. The article starts out by saying that Trump and Obama may finally see eye to eye on something regarding their decisions and views on Iran. Within the article there are three different sections, words of warning, a limited deal, and stricter implementation. Words of warning was about USA, North Korea, and Iran it explains that each country has been sending their opinions and harsh thoughts to one another to show they mean business and what they plan to do. It also states the US is eager to finalize the deal with Iran and to see what comes from it and as it may seem that Iran is the only thing on our countries radar North Korea continues to be a big factor too. In the Limited deal section it stated that it was difficult to work on the deal and was shockingly worked out with both countries and that if Iran new how we actually felt it would of gone different. In the Stricter implementation section it says that the USA is very concerned to has most of their attention on Iran, Trump also states that they are a problem that needs to be taken car of. On this topic I feel like the US was right in bombing Iran, They have done many bad things to our country and need to know we are stronger and will retaliate. This article ties into our class because we always talk about politics and Trumps decisions and it is also a current event.
