When the Presidential campaigns began, we were bemused at Donald Trump; his outrageous policies like the wall around Mexico, and the ludicrous comments he made. Many actors and TV stars imitated him, the Internet blew up with jokes about him and we continued to chuckle to ourselves about how ridiculous this Presidential candidate is. Now, with less than a month to go until the election on the 8th November, Trump is still saying outrageous things, but we’re not laughing quite as much any more – this man is actually a contender to become the most powerful person in the world.
When asked who they’re voting for, many Americans simply reply; ‘Not Trump’. For many, this poses another problem, because the answer to ‘Not Trump’, is Hillary Clinton. While many people consider her to be a suitable candidate, a prominent figure in American politics for some time, she has been painted by some as an untrustworthy figure, due to dislike of her husband, former President Bill Clinton or distrust of her secretive activities and actions. Many Americans don’t want her running the country for this reason either, leaving them in a position of voting either ‘Not Trump’ or ‘Not Clinton’.
While the United States are facing the prospect of one of these candidates becoming President in less than a month, we are forced to ponder the difficulty of the decision they have to make. Indeed, there are many times in your career when we are faced with life changing decisions, such as this one, and for some, the answer is not always clear cut. We recognise that this will affect family, friends and you financially, so we are here to ensure we provide the advice to enable you to consider the options carefully and before you take a leap of faith into the next phase of your career.
Here at ABPM, we understand that you have to make many decisions regarding your career, and we are dedicated to making sure that you have all the information and support you need to help make an informed decision, no matter how difficult it may seem. We look forward to hearing from you and supporting you on your way in your career.
