Trump Destroying the Economy Even BEFORE His Inauguration

It only took Donald Trump to speak recklessly about China that will have a very lasting effect on the United States economy in the immediate future and years to come. He could not wait to become president again and had to put down very serious foreign traders like China, Canada and Mexico and is in a  continuous war with his words. In a very ignorant move, he had to recklessly push his authority to state upcoming actions for China that he plans to tariff.  But before Trump could make good on his threats and just one week ago China has upgraded bans to the United States, prior to Trump having ANY authority to push bans on China.

This time, it’s about a specific mineral that is mined in China, that normally is exported to the United States. The name of the mineral is ANTIMONY. China has imposed 100% export restrictions of this critical mineral used in military equipment and civilian technologies. China controls 48% of global antimony output and supplies 63% of U.S. imports. All of this extremely important mineral can no longer be imported from China. The price of electronics will now skyrocket. Where can the United States find the 63% of this mineral needed to produce goods that we take for granted because they always have been available in abundance? The supply and demand rule will now really take effect. With products like microchips become scarce because we will not have enough of this mineral called antimony, the prices of existing products will go up.

The ban severely impacts U.S. defense capabilities since antimony is essential for armor-piercing ammunition, night vision goggles, and precision optics. The United States currently relies on imports for 83% of its antimony needs, with only 18% met through recycling. In response, companies like Perpetua Resources are working to develop domestic production capabilities and now the United States must look elsewhere for antimony.

This mineral is used in chip technology and is required to make computer chips. Computer products in the future will become scarce, and if you manage to find a computer you want to purchase, expect to pay a higher price. So, tell me because I’m having a hard time understanding why the American people believe that Trump is great for our economy. Trump has failed as our president even before he officially becomes our president.

I mentioned about the IPhone in another previous article. Where is the IPhone made, just guess? Yes, in CHINA. Woops, here comes a price increase to purchase an iPhone, and that’s if you will be able to find one, because I can now believe that the availability of them will be drastically decreased in volume within the United States. If you can find one, you will pay more for it. China makes most of consume products that are exported around the globe, but now the United States will have to pay more for products from China, so who do you think will have to pay for these items ultimately? Yes, you guessed right again. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Lower economy, really? Our economy was admired by many countries around the world, and they only wished their were as good as ours. Soon, no country will be wishing their economy was like ours.

If it weren’t for the false pretense that our economy was failing, that our prices are too high and someone had to be blamed, like the current administration of Joe Biden, Donald J. Trump would have never been reelected. But in all sincerity, who must be blamed are the people who voted for this crazy rapist felon to be their president. Obviously, I did not. But I will be affected along with all the MAGA Republicans that now have to try and survive our upcoming wrecked economy because these voters put Trump in office.

It is a sad situation, but we delt our own hand and we must live with it. Just maybe he will think twice now before initiating his bans on Canada and Mexico. Is Trump getting a taste of his failure in foreign economic even before he becomes president again? You bet. The question is, does he care. It’s had to imagine that he does, because the trade war with China began in 2018 in Trump’s first term. When he imposed tariffs on China then, this is when all this started. But as ignorant as he obviously is, he had to do it again. We will feel the pain of Trump, day after day, and in just a few short weeks on January 20, 2025, the real pain will begin.

Trump claimed that he will be a dictator for a day on day one. Believe him. He will take pleasure in acting like Putin and Kim Jung-un or Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. He worships strong-men like them. He HAD a chance to become the strongest leader in the world, as the President of the United States has always been, but Donald J. Trump in his second term will prove to be the weakest on the world stage. He will eventually back down from his threats, and his tariffs paid by the American people, but by then it will be too late, because he will have successfully wrecked our economy, and we may even head straight for another depression.

It is a grim picture that I’m painting but let me elaborate just a bit further. Farmers will go bankrupt and lose their lands. They will not be able to pay back loans to banks. Banks will not survive because their clientele cannot afford to do business with them. Credit scores will drop, and more and more people will not qualify for bank loans. It’s a death spiral and it’s coming.

I surely hope that I’m wrong, but I’ve been around a while now in my life and have been a victim of the U.S. economy for too long to know when it is good and when it is bad. I cannot see one instance where the Trump economy will be good for the American people. Just watch the stock market and 401K’s. They will tell the story. Right now, the stock market and 401k’s are looking great. But, let the future be known in due time. When the American people are affected by a crash such as what we had in 2008, then they will realize how wrong they were to put this convicted felon and rapist back in office, just so he can try to save his own skin from prosecution, and the American people, not knowing that what he actually will do is try to destroy us in the process. He has nothing to lose, not another election, because Donald Trump cannot run for a third term, at least not yet. So, he’s not worried about being re-elected and he won’t watch his steps. He has the Supreme Court behind him with the immunity decision this past summer, as he can do most anything he wants too as long as it is an official duty, like putting tariffs on foreign countries, wreck the U.S. economy in the process and get away with it. He can never be prosecuted for endangering the American people when he performs official acts. So, let’s see where this goes. Will I be wrong, or will I be right? The future will tell.

Trump’s Tariff Threats Cause $575-$690 billion LOSS in U.S. Imports

Trump is not even the acting president, but he’s acting like he is the President by informing foreign countries he’s getting ready to tariff them. Without even taken office, Donald Trump has seriously hurt this country’s economy. The U.S.  and China account for at least 40% of the World’s GDP. In the recent past, the U.S. provided at least 60% of all China soybean imports. Now, no more, thanks to Trump. He is already bankrupting the country before he officially becomes president.

Let me outline what his tariff rhetoric has done before he will become president…

  • The U.S. is losing its largest customer of crops such as soybeans. They are turning their purchases of electronics to Europe, to Brazil for agriculture and Russia for agriculture and oil products.
  • There will be uncertainty in the market and American investors and farmers will be affected. Watch the stock markets.
  • Loosing China in these sectors as a trade partner is sending shockwaves to supply chains, employment and innovation.

The U.S.- China trade war began in Trump’s first term in 2018 when Trump imposed tariffs on $360 billion of Chinese goods. Back then, China retaliated with $110 billion in exports to the U.S. and Technology and energy were among the hardest hit sectors. As proof of this back in 2018, exports to China fell over 20 percent. U.S. farmers lost about $4 billion because of U.S. tariffs. Presently, Trump is only threatening China, but China is taking the first shot at the United States, not even giving Trump a chance to retaliate, because he’s not the president yet and he is powerless. Trump will not take this sitting down, and as an attempt to further his cause, he will create more damage between China and the United States when he is sworn into office on January 20, 2025.

  • Instead of making China pay for tariffs, the shift away from trade with the United States has the effect of making products more expensive and less competitive in the global markets. The U.S. voter turned to Trump because they believed he was better for the economy. Really?!&/?”%???
  • Trump’s tariffs will be an immediate cause why agricultural products and electronics will go up in price.
Tariffs act as a tax on U.S. businesses and consumers.

Does Trump care? Absolutely not. He hasn’t learned from the debacle he caused in 2018, as he already has created a trade mess with China in 2024, and he’s not even president yet.

Remember in a previous post on this website when I made the claim that Trump will hurt the economy instead of making it better? Well, here is the proof of that. Donald Trump is so macho and reckless, and he believes that the world will run on his whim. Trump wants to be the strongest leader of the free world, and he is showing he is the weakest. He has no clue. He is so far out of touch with the needs of the American people and no clue on what it will take in a global economy to make it better.  Now we will have to close our eyes and hold on tight and hope this county can survive a second Trump presidency for the next four years. This is just the beginning.

Convicted Felon Trump’s Win – NOT A MANDATE

Donald Trump’s 2424 win is hardly a mandate. The following chart just goes to show you what history will say about his actual popularity, as this clearly shows that his margin of victory compared to other presidents dating back to 1924 relates to just a speck of dust compared to the universe.

He succeeded in one thing for himself. That was to stay out of jail for the next four years. The United States is not in the habit of putting a sitting president in jail during their term in office, but Trump now realizes that when he gets finished with his second term as the worst president the United States ever had, that he will be going to jail. State prosecutions cannot be excused by any future president, even one from the Republican Party, who would like to pardon Trump and expunge his 34 counts of felony that will put him in jail in 2029.

Yes, Jack Smith has recently dismissed Trump’s pending cases but without prejudice. So what does ‘without prejudice’ mean?

In the legal context, ‘with prejudice’ means a case has been permanently dismissed and cannot be brought back to court. This is a “final disposition” that indicates the court’s decision is final and absolute in all courts for all subsequent cases.

In contrast, a case dismissed “without prejudice” means the case can be brought back to court. This could be because the court did not bar future claims, or because the plaintiff wants to refile to correct a procedural or technical problem. It also could be because a sitting president cannot go forward with official proceedings of condemnation because he has a job to do. After he is finished with his job as president, the cases will be rekindled and brought to their conclusions as originally intended before he became president for the second time.

Does anyone believe that Donald Trump will want to leave office so he can go straight past ‘GO’ and go to Jail? He wants to be like Putin, or Kim Jong-un or, better yet, like President Roosevelt. He is and never will be like Roosevelt. Furthermore, he served in 4 terms as a U.S. president before term limits were introduced to the United States in 1951 when the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution went into effect. The 22nd Amendment was passed by Congress in 1947, but took 4 years to go into effect, as a new amendment to the Constitution must be ratified by three-quarters of the states before it could go into effect. Thanks to Minnesota, who finally approved the amendment, it became the law of the land.

The autocrat Trump is and will show the American people this year will open Republicans eyes, and the damage he will do to this country and to other countries around the world will be heart-breaking within the next 4 years. He will continue to bring division to the United States.

He has openly discussed in the past and present that he would like to invade a country, namely Mexico, to “take out” the cartel that he believes is responsible for bringing in drugs to America like ‘Fentanyl’. Likewise, he wants to tariff countries like Mexico, Canada and China. He was re-elected because the American people believed that he was the better candidate for bringing back the economy, even though our economy is without question the best in the world. Other countries wished they were as successful as the United States. Our economy will falter if he makes good on his tariffs to the other countries, because U.S. businesses will fail as they will have to raise prices on merchandise and services for which the American people will refuse to or just outright can’t afford to pay. It will be a domino effect, like what happened to companies during the Great Depression. Yes, the great businessman that he is, as he has gone bankrupt at least 4 times in his life to prove he knows what he is doing, will bankrupt the country just because he wanted to stay out of jail, when a jail sentence in his future is inevitable. A rapist that he is, as he was convicted of the crime in a U.S. court.

Of course, that is easy to say because I know what will be planned to happen in the future, but slick Donald Trump most likely will find a way to not serve any jail time. But remember, Donald Trump was convicted of 34 felonies in a STATE court, which means no future president can pardon him from serving if he goes to jail. I truly believe that the future will not be kind to Donald J. Trump, who in my mind has been and will continue to be the worst president the United States has and will EVER have.

The United States people have decided to elect this criminal president, and only time will tell how much damage he will do before he leaves office a second time, especially  if democracy fails and he becomes a dictator. He claims he wants to be a dictator on day one, so let’s see if he keeps his word.

Trump is About to WRECK the Economy

Donald Trump will wreck the American Economy. I can’t state that in a simpler way, but saying it deserves an explanation.

So, everyone who voted for him including my friends and family, take warning of what will happen to the economy because YOU voted for Trump in the election.

Again, the upcoming actions of the incoming president will be devastating to the economy.

So, let’s talk a scenario that most likely will happen with Trump as our president.

He plans to deport 11 million people without regard as to what that will do to the economy. Undocumented people work in major sectors of the work force. Undocumented people work in the food industry, the food supply chain, construction like in building apartments and homes. That’s just the beginning.

The economic analysis has already proven that it will cause a rise in the consumer cost index and the cost of goods between 3% and 10%. That simply means that whatever you are buying now, scrape up to maybe 10% across the board, because the people who were doing dirty jobs in places that you may not want to do have been deported. This would directly affect housing and the food chain.

As an example, at least 500,000 people work in the construction business. At least 40% of those are undocumented. So, what do businesses do in the construction industry when 40% of their workers get deported? Construction slows down drastically and, in many cases, will just stop.

In the food industry, it’s the same, except this time it’s millions of UNDOCUMENTED  workers that fill the jobs. These people work in the fields; they slaughter the chickens, pigs and cows, in jobs that most people would never want to take. These people in some cases work in 24-hour shifts. So how many people are we talking about in the food industry?  All your really need to know just to put it mildly, at least 40-50% of these people are UNDOCUMENTED.

If Trump carries out deportation of UNDOCUMENTED people, what do you think will happen to prices and in general, the economy. The economy will be devastated.

He plans to do two things at once. While Trump is accomplishing this how about started a trade war involving at least 40% of our economy with partners that supply us things the most. Wow, what a smart thing to do. But to put it honestly, only Trump would ever come up with plans to accomplish it.

Trump all along claimed that he was going to shut down trade from China. But he claims he will only put tariffs on goods from China of only 10%. Instead of carrying that out as if that’s a lot, he has now decided to put a tariff on goods coming from Canada of at least 25%, which means goods coming from Canada will cost more. The tariffs will be paid by the consumer. Things like building materials, food  and electronics. Oh, and that’s not even enough. Trump loves tariffs so much, he also plans to tax goods coming in from Mexico. The construction industry relies on UNDOCUMENTED people to run. If you increase the goods coming in by at least 25%, what do you think will happen to building materials, electronics and clothing goods.

EVERY TARIFF GETS PASSED ON TO THE CONSUMERS. EVERYONE KNOWS THIS EXCEPT TRUMP WHO WILL BECOME KNOWN AS THE DESTROYER OF THE ECONOMY IF HE CARRIES OUT HIS PLANS AS JUST STATED.

Trump claims by doing this to our neighbor countries will stop the flow of drugs and drug trafficking. Even if he could do this, he would wreck the economy as a result.

Canada and Mexico will retaliate. So now, the cost of goods may go up at least 25-30% by imposing tariffs that the consumer must pay for.

I truly believe that Donald Trump will do the inevitable, because he is hiring the trade hawks in his nominated cabinet that will do it.

Trump went personally bankrupt 6 times, now he’s trying to bankrupt the United States, and if he carries on his plan and he’s successful, that is exactly what he will do. Then we go into a recession. Products will become scarce and the cost of things available will skyrocket, but unfortunately most people would not be able to afford the high prices. I’m still struggling to figure out why the country thinks Donald Trump is best for the economy.

We have given the keys to our economy to Trump, and what I just said is what he plans to do. I hope that I’m wrong. I hope that EVERY statement mentioned in this document is wrong. But presently, there is nothing or proof of any kind to say that I am wrong. On January 20th when Trump becomes the 47th President of the United States, let’s see what he does. There will be a flurry of executive actions, and I’m wondering how long it will take for Trump to kick off the tariffs.

Honestly, Donald Trump is a dumb human being. I’ll explain that in another document. But what is mentioned here is just the start of the destruction he plans to accomplish in the next four years. Hopefully in 2026, he will lose the power of the Congress to implement his actions, as the House and Senate will again be taken by the Democrats. If Donald Trump puts on the tariffs, at least one or both will be taken by the Democrats. But the first 2 years of his term are looking to be quite bumpy.

Your head should be up and your chins should be out but this time you need to close your eyes and plug your nose. IT’S COMING! Donald Trump will not run for re-election because he will have served two terms as president, he will act unchecked and has nothing to loose, except what will be waiting for him in 2029 outside of the presidency. I’ll explain this in another article. Hopefully our economy will still be in tact, but if it’s not, it will take another Democratic president to try and right the ship.

 

Trump’s Second Term – Already a Disaster

I would like to preface my article here is to say my dear Republican friends have no idea what will be in store for them and for the country as they supported a rapist, a criminal felon, a fraudster and made sure that he reached the White House. It was not a fluke. He not only acquired the electoral votes to become president, he also had the popular vote, so there is no question that he won fair and square in 2024. Project 2025 did not scare the Republicans. Donald Trump’s first term didn’t scare them. His obsession in working with dictators like Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin didn’t scare them.

Do any of my dear Republican friends have their eyes open? Donald J. Trump, a man that only wanted to save himself from prison, is now President-Elect and will be our 47th President. He gets an out of jail for free card, for now. But in 4 years, when he can no longer run for president of these United States, Donald J. Trump will be sentenced to prison. He has been convicted in a court of 34 counts of felony. It was a unanimous decision. There was no question of his guilt. For the first time in Donald Trump’s life, he was being held accountable for his actions. The only thing left was his sentencing, and I got to give him credit, he pulled the biggest political trick on the American people, mainly Republicans, to have ever been seen in modern times. The Republicans showed their ignorance as at least half of the country voted for this criminal felon as their president. So, the people of the United States will now take a back seat and watch a want-to-be dictator destroy this county and he will have some success.

I made the previous statements because now the American people must deal with Donald Trump’s regained power as president, and they will pay the consequences for at least the next 2 years. In the midterm elections in 2026, I predict that the Democrats will regain control of the House of Representatives, and maybe control over both chambers to include the Senate. But what do I know? I was 100% wrong, believing the Kamala Harris could win the election. Since Trump literally beat her in this election as he never once lost the lead when the voting was being held, I’ve struggled since then to try and determine why Kamala Harris lost to Trump. I’ll try to explain my thoughts on this later in this article.

But, let’s start from the top.

Trump’s disastrous pick for Attorney General, Matt Gaetz, a test to Senate Republicans, was withdrawn as Republicans in the Senate say NO to Gaetz as the nominee for a position that needed to be confirmed in the U.S. Senate. That was never going to happen. Why? Because the Republicans in the Senate are joining the resistance, and there are a few of them left that will stand up for the right thing, but there IS enough of them. So what did Donald Trump do when he couldn’t get his number one choice to become Attorney General, he then picks a woman who most likely will be confirmed by the name of Pam Bondi, who is just as bad as Gaetz for the position. Remember Trump’s pick for the leader of the next Senate didn’t get chosen, as in a secret ballot, the Senators chose John Thune to replace McConnell who did not want the position in the next Senate.

Another great Trump pick, Pete Hegseth, nominated by Trump to lead the Department of Defense, has been accused of rape  and is a know drunkard.  You can’t make this stuff up, but only Donald J. Trump has the balls to try and pull the wool over the eyes of the American people, but at least for now, the Republicans in the Senate will have nothing to do with it. If he even makes it to the Senate confirmation process, he will most certainly fail. From all the reports that I read about him, he is the least qualified.  Lloyn J Austin III is Biden’s Secretary of Defense is a retired military officer and is very qualified in the position. PeteHegseth left FOX News as co-host of “FOX and FRIENDS” to take Trump’s nomination as Secretary of Defense. If this was a joke, it would be truly funny. But nominating Hegseth as the next Secretary of Defense is not a joke, but very scary. This man will be in charge of all men in uniform.

I thought I would never say this, but Rand Paul, who is a Republican from Kentucky whom I’m no fan of, but over the years he has proven himself to be a principled libertarian. He is a pretty respectable person. He ran for president in 2016, he is a doctor, he’s been vetted in the past, and I doubt if you will find any facts that he raped someone, or anything negative that would force Paul to bend to the will of Trump like the two nominees already mentioned for Trump’s choices. Rand Paul is aware of the fact that as soon as Trump becomes president, he will declare a national emergency and will use the military to round up undocumented people around the country. Trump always gives us an idea of what he is about to do, and just last week he mentioned that he will begin to round up people as soon as he becomes president. Rand Paul is not in favor of having the military go to the cities and hunt for people. It’s actually been illegal for the last 100 years to bring in the Army to our cities.

So going back to my initial points in this article, why were the Republicans so desperate in choosing Trump to become president? Well, they say he is the best person to fix our economy. And I get it. Prices have gone up substantially since Joe Biden has become president. But the ignorant Republicans do not realize that it didn’t make any difference of who became president in 2020, that the economy was going to take a hit.  But economists around the world will tell you that if they had a choice today, they would trade their economy for our economy without question. We literally have the best economy in the world, and we have Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to thank for it.

So let’s try and determine how Trump is going to make the U.S. economy better. Let’s start with California.

In California, undocumented people comprise up to 2-million people who contribute to the U.S. economy, but they comprise half of the state’s agricultural industry. For example, to demonstrate their clout, 30% of all construction workers in Los Angeles are undocumented. About 18% of all manufacturing jobs in southern California are performed by undocumented workers. Trump made a promise during the election to deport at least 5% of the undocumented workers from this county. THIS ACTION WILL DESTROY THE AMERICAN ECONOMY. The entire economy of southern California runs on undocumented workers.  Is this Trump’s way to punish California for being a sanctuary State?

It is fact, that in 2022, undocumented people paid billions of dollars in Federal, State and local taxes. They pay into Medicare, Medicaid, employment insurance and Social Security, even though they are not entitled to any of it. They subsidize our benefits. Furthermore, they are not the takers of our tax revenue, but the makers of it. They receive very little in return. In my eyes, there is no migrant or an immigration crisis. If anyone believes that the crisis exists, they are believing in lies. This country is a nation of immigrants. Our roots began in other countries. But let’s see what happens to the U.S. economy if mass deportations begin in January, as Donald J. Trump promises. One thing is for sure, he will close the southern border in January. He will begin deporting people from families that voted for him. That’s how Trump is going to show thanks to his voters, because he has nothing to lose while he is in office. He can’t run again, so his decisions will be taken right out of the Project 2025 playbook.  God help us all!

Yes, Donald Trump, who is nothing less than a lunatic, hasn’t even been sworn in yet, but his administration is going to be a disaster. Just for starters, we have 3 sexual assault scandals in one week. Matt Gaetz, Pete Hegseth, and we cannot ignore Linda McMahon who gave a blind-eye of the child rape over the WWE is now poised to be the head of the Department of Education. What a role model. All of Donald Trump’s picks, from Tulsi Gabbard to Robert Kennedy Jr. is a mental defective.  The biggest disaster of them all is Donald J. Trump, and as the saying goes, it takes one to know one. Trump is incapable of nominating decent human beings to run his government.  So this is what the American people wanted, is it? Well, this is what we got, and we got to take the punishment for at least the next few years.

What do we have to look forward to? Well, there is going to be another tax cut for the rich that will add trillions to our national debt. The Republicans are going to try to make cuts to medicare, medicaid, food stamps, aid to dependent children and unemployment insurance and Social Security, even though they cannot benefit from it in their future. Trump will fire at least 50,000 Federal employees, or at least he will try to. The EPA will become part of the Fossil fuel industry. That’s if Donald Trump has his way. He will try and roll back a lot of what Joe Biden accomplished in his four years in office. But his number 1 target will be the undocumented people, because he will want to satisfy the bloodlust of his supporters by destroying the lives of innocent people. Then it’s the LGBTQ community.  What happened to the hearts of the Americans that voted for him. Each one of them is responsible for what Trump will do in his tenure as 47th President of the United States. Most ALL of my friends must take the blame too.

So let’s look back to the past four years. We did not get medicare for all, the oil companies were not outlawed and billionaires were not taxed as they should have been. But my thoughts for why Kamala Harris lost the election is not because of Donald Trump, although I would love to make that argument, but it’s because Joe Biden successfully put in motion the most progressive legislation since Lyndon Johnson and she is Biden’s Vice-President. Biden did most of it within the first 2 years in office. He passed the Chips Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, the bi-partisan infrastructure deal that Donald Trump claims he was going to do in his first term, but never got done and the Stimulus bill. Joe Biden will be known in history for great things, not like Donald Trump will be remembered for. Some will argue that Joe Biden did more good in his first 2 years as president than Obama did in eight years. Getting back to Kamala Harris, this is one of the main reasons she did not get elected as president. Now in hindsight, she didn’t stand a chance to win. I can’t even begin to tell you how much it pains me to say that. But it’s true. As another saying goes, “Let the Truth Be known”, and now we know it. But we should also know what is about to come. I just hope that this country is ready for it. The disasterous term of Trump’s presidency will be witnessed for the world to see. Hopefully the eyes of my Republican friends will be opened, as another saying goes, “Will they see the light?”.

 

 

 

Republicans Take Full Control of the Federal Government as they take control of the House

Today, it was announced that the Republicans reached the magic number of 218 representatives in the House to gain control of it at least for the next two years until mid-term elections in 2026. So Mike Johnson will continue to be the Speaker of the House at least for the time being.

It appears that the only thing that is stopping the Republicans from gaining absolute control in government is the Filibuster which the Democrats will use to keep laws from reaching Trump’s desk for signature. The question is will the Republicans now get rid of it so they can pass laws with a simple majority without any Democratic votes?

I wouldn’t put it past the Republicans to eliminate the Filibuster? If that happens, Trump and his Maga government will have total control of everything Trump and his cronies want to do.  They are already hunting and pecking the ‘Project 2025’ playbook.

Retribution is  be something that the Republicans want to do. Today, President Trump nominated Rep. Matt Gaetz to serve as attorney general to run the justice department.

If confirmed as an attorney general, Gaetz will have access to incriminating evidence on himself that the Biden Attorney General – Merrick Garland has on him. In the meantime Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress just today, thus eliminating the Ethic Committee investigation which was supposed to become public within the next week. But will it all be for nothing? Also, prior Speaker McCarthy claims that the Senate will block his appointment. All the evidence  that the present Attorney General has on Gaetz will just go away if Gaetz takes over as new Senate leader. The question is whether or not if it actually goes away before the public sees for themselves what is in the report.

Trump is working quickly in choosing his MAGA-ites for Cabinet positions and other high positions in government.

 

Trump wants his Upcoming Senate to take an immediate recess so he can Push In Loyalists into high offices

Donald Trump is not even in office yet, but he is already telling his upcoming Republican controlled Senate what to do. He openly is instructing them to take at least 2 weeks of vacation at the start of their tenure in the House in January, so that he could by-pass the Senate confirmations on the people that would normally sit through Senate confirmations to gain a specific office.

When the U.S. Senate is in recess, the president has the right to make appointments on his own without confirmation, so many of the people he wants in his government will have free rein at least for the first 2 years in office. S0 Trump is starting at the top, putting together his cabinet officials that must be loyalists to him to be able to serve, and come January 20, all hell breaks loose.

Joe Biden’s executive orders will immediately be tossed, and Trump will go crazy with the power of the pen to create his own executive orders, and begin to bestow wrath on the American people.

Again, this should be nothing new, but it’s just that people forget. They have forgotten what Trump did when he was president before. Now with no one overlooking his moves and only loyalists will be heard, Trump will do what he wants, and within his official office as president, presidential immunity will take force, and Trump will not be accountable for his actions.

Republicans on Track to gain Total Control of Government

Presently, the U.S. House of Representatives is set to be controlled by Republicans, and it will give Democrats no control over the Federal Government. Donald Trump will hire his minions to slave under him to run the Federal Government and King Trump will commit crimes as President under the umbrella of his office which will allow him to create these crimes and TOTALLY get away from being prosecuted because of them, thanks to presidential immunity given to him by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Republicans are presently on track in the House of Representatives, with a present tally of only 209 seats filled by Democrats and 216 filled by Republicans. The Republicans only need to gain 2 more seats in the upcoming House of Representatives, as there are 10 more seats up for grabs. The party to first reach 218 Senators chosen to serve in the upcoming House will gain control of it for at least the next two years.

The Senate has already fallen to Republicans, as they take control of the Senate on January 3rd. The present Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell will be stepping down as leader, so there will be a new Republican majority leader in the Senate. Mitch McConnell will still serve just as a Senator representing Kentucky.  My guess will be Senator Rick Scott of Florida will become the new Senate leader. Why do I say that? It’s because Trump would like it and Elon Musk supports it. Also, Mitch McConnell doesn’t support Rick Scott. Trump despises McConnell, so whatever McConnell wants, Trump will do the opposite. So, I feel that it’s a sure bet that Rick Scott will gain the position of Senate Majority Leader because the minions under Donald Trump will give Trump what he wants. Most Republicans believe that Scott may be the only Senator out there that would be able to achieve Trumps goals in the Senate. The leader needs to be chosen by a simple majority in the Senate. To me, this is a sure bet. But I have been wrong before.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: November 13th, 2024

As usual as has been the case with my choice for President, The Republican Caucus has chosen Republican Senator John Thune of South Dakota, Mitch McConnell’s pick to be Senate Majority leader, instead of Senator Rick Scott of Florida, whom I thought would get the job. Presently, he is 2nd in rank as the whip, but with a secret ballot by Senators so Trump cannot know who voted against his pick for fear of retribution by Trump, he will take the reins as the Senate Majority leader on January 3rd, despite what Donald Trump wants. Trump was open on who he wanted as the Senate leader, and that was Senator Rick Scott of Florida.

Regarding Trump, never in my wildest imaginations did I believe that a two-time impeached president Trump, a convicted felon and rapist, would be America’s choice for President of the United States, especially what he caused 4 years ago on January 6.  Police and rioters lost their lives because of him as they stormed the Capital, and he just sat down in the White House and watched the scenes unfold on a TV. His own vice-president was being attacked in the Capital, and he did nothing about it. Trump has wiggled out of accountability time and time again for the things he has done in the past that is a clear show of breaking the law.

So, if you are a supporter of democracy, the future of America seems to be grim. But again, the electorate has chosen Donald J. Trump, a sexual predator, a fraudster and last but not least, a convicted felon, to be their leader for the next four years. I push that thought home many times in the future, as the country wreaks of Donald Trumps corruption. The government that looks more and more of an autocracy every day, will be run as Trump will rule as king for the next four years with no guard rails, except for democratic State governments that will continue ruling under the rule of law and oppose Trump any way they can.  Donald J. Trump will govern  just as dictators do around the world. The only ones that can and will keep Donald Trump in check will be state Democrats that obviously will have no power in the Federal Government. These states will do everything in their power to protect their states.

What will Trump and the Republican Party do in the next four years? I can only imagine presently, but my imagination, unfortunately in most cases, will become reality.

For starters, Trump will close the borders as he has promised on January 20th, to be his first act as president. He will instruct ICE to round up and jail and remove millions of people, possibly up to 11 million, who are now in this country. The dreamers, who have been here for most of their lives, may also be rounded up and deported. Trump is fixing to break up families, send back immigrants who desperately want to live here because they will be prosecuted if they return to their own country and in many cases face death. But this is the world we will be living in for the next four years.

Other things to look forward to will be Trump rolling back Biden administration policies on education, firing potentially thousands of federal employees he believes are secretly working against him, and pardoning people who were arrested for their role in the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Look for the immediate firing of Special Council Jack Smith, as Trump will make most of his criminal cases just go away, at least the federal ones. But Trump cannot pardon himself when it comes to his state conviction in the New York hush money case, but he could seek leverage with his status as president-elect in an effort to set aside or expunge his felony conviction and stave off a potential prison sentence.

The Georgia case against Trump involving election interference will most likely be the only criminal case left standing. But nothing will be done in the case until at least 2029, not until Trump steps down as president. The question is, what grips of government will Trump have in four years, and will he be able to be forced to leave office?

Trump will pardon supporters who attacked the capital. Approximately 1,500 people have been charged for what they have done 4 years ago at the U.S. Capital. The convicted felon president calls the rioters “unbelievable patriots”.

In his demented mind, Trump wants to dismantle in what he thinks as a ‘deep state’ of government workers. He will strip tens of thousands of career employees of their civil service protections so that they can be more easily fired. These people working in these positions are apolitical, meaning they do not support political parties, and are usually the last guard rails to what would be ill-advised political decisions of the president. Instead, Trump plans to replace them with people of political status that would support his wishes.

Trump wants to impose tariffs on imported goods, especially those from China. He thinks that’s a way to shrink the federal deficit and help lower food prices. In general, he proposed at least a 10% tariff across-the board on imported goods, a 60% import tax on goods from China and 25% tariff on all goods from Mexico. Trump does not need U.S. Congress to implement tariffs, so here comes the higher prices on merchandise made in China or around the globe on EVERYTHING that is not made in the United States.

Trump claims that he will inform the new president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum “I’m going to inform her on Day 1 or sooner that if they don’t stop this onslaught of criminals and drugs coming into our country, I’m going to immediately impose a 25% tariff on everything they send into the United States of America.”

Just as a reminder, for Americans to purchase these goods, American citizens will be paying the tariff, not China, and not Mexico. So if inflation was on the ballot in 2024, and Americans believe they made the right move by electing Trump to protect them from inflation, they have a rude awakening coming when higher prices hit the markets on ALL foreign goods, especially from China.

Trump promises to roll back protections for transgender students. He plans to roll back the Biden administration action seeking to protect transgender students from discrimination in schools on the first day of his new administration. Trump plans to roll back new Title IX protections of transgender students from their classmates. Trump plans to cut federal money for any school “pushing critical race theory, transgender insanity and other inappropriate racial, sexual or political content onto the lives of our children.”

Trump has pledged to dismantle the Department of Education, which has been a cabinet-level agency since 1980, cut federal funding for schools teaching critical race theory, and bar transgender female athletes from participating in school sports. Donald Trump may close down the Department of Education, but the functions of the Department of Education will need to continue. The department houses the office of Civil Rights, which enforces federal civil rights laws across schools to protect students against discrimination. Regulation by the Department of Education also affect college sports, which is one thing that Republicans would not want to see impacted.

The rights of LGBTQ+ students would suffer under a Trump Administration due to the changes that would likely be made to Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in education. Trump’s policies will welcome sex-based discrimination in education.

Trump wants to “Drill baby Drill”, with the intention of reversing climate policies aimed at reducing planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions. He can do this on Day 1, as he can roll back environmental protections, halt wind projects, and scuttle the Biden administration’s target that encourage the switch to electric cars and abolish standards for companies to become more environmentally friendly. He wants increase production of U.S. fossil fuels, and wants to open the Arctic wilderness to oil drilling.

Trump claims he will settle the war between Russia and Ukraine in one day. I can say now that this will be impossible to happen. Trump’s best chance is to get Russia and Ukraine to the negotiating table to end the war. But Trump claims he can do anything. We will see what he gets done on day one. There will be a lot of damage done, and little good will come out on day 1, especially if he carries out his threat to be “a dictator on day 1. ”

Mass deportations from the U.S. to Mexico is a sure thing. Trump claims that he would invoke the ‘Alien Enemies Act’. It is a 1780 law that allows the president to deport anyone who is not an American citizen and is from a country in which there is a ‘declared war’ or a threatened or attempted “invasion or predatory incursion.”

He claims that he may deploy National Guard troops to nearby states that refuse to participate in mass deportations of people living in their states. Trump is inviting mass riots and dissention into his immigration policies. What’s not so funny now is that people who voted Trump into office will be affected negatively when it comes to deporting their relatives who are not yet citizens. That was a smart choice, America…?,./{/??.

So now we know the facts as stated above, and most likely what was said about Trump’s success in the election may be the last complimentary/good thing I will ever say about him. He has already proven his corruption during his first term as your president, but you voted for him anyway. A convicted felon was voted in office to be the most powerful person in the world.

YOU DID THAT!

SHAME ON AMERICA…

This website is a continuation of the previous website created at this URL, but I have removed all prior posts created of the last presidency of Donald Trump, because none of that counts today. Trump is starting over in his second presidency, and this website will do the same.

But up front, now let’s get into the thick of it.

This first article here is not about Donald J. Trump. It is about the American electorate. Citizens from every gender and ethnicity of Americans that could vote overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump. Unfortunately, that is the fact and the reason why he won the presidency. At least 10 million people stayed home this time around, verses 2020, thus one of the reasons why Trump won. The Democrats were missing in action.

But what did the American people really do by voting for this convicted felon of 34 counts, a convicted rapist, and a fraudster, and an insurrectionist who refused to give up power in 2020 when he lost the election to Joe Biden?

Here is what various people in the electorate voted for in the elections…

Seniors voted to gut Social Security.
Men voted for their wives and daughters to die from miscarriages.
Immigrants voted for deportation raids.
Poor people voted for tax cuts for billionaires.
Women voted to have fewer rights than men.
All who voted for Trump voted for a convicted felon, rapist, and fraudster.

The electorate also voted for this…

With Trump now in power, he will fire ALL non-partisan career professionals in the Federal government, and he will replace them with radical loyalists within every nook and cranny of the US government, and he will add radical judges everywhere.

You must get familiar with ‘PROJECT 2025’. Use it as a reference guide as Trump destroys America and gets away with it because the Supreme Court gave him Presidential Immunity.

If you haven’t read it already, and you voted for Trump, what’s coming is what you deserve.

Everyone who voted for him will finally wake up some day from their Trump fantasy, just like the folks who woke up after Trump 1.o. and realize now it’s actually much worse. It will be much more permanent this time.  When the cancer caused from electing him infects every bit of the American system, it won’t be able to be unwound for a lifetime, certainly not in yours or mine, and your children will hate you for it.  The girls will thank their parents for losing abortion rights that you had for the last 50 years. All of you parents that voted for Trump must think that this is pretty cool.

So then what? Do you beg this country for forgiveness for choosing fascism because you were conned into believing your eggs are too expensive because of Joe Biden?

Here’s what the electorate successfully accomplished by electing Trump…

You just put Steve Bannon in charge of American policy.

You just put Michael Flynn in charge of our military.

You just put Alex Jones in charge of media and propaganda.

You just put Stephen Miller in charge of immigration policy.

You just put crazy RFK Jr. in charge of health policy. He claims he will make sure fluoride is taken out of water.

You just sealed the deal on a national abortion ban, because you’re demented if you think it’s not coming, even though Trump claimed he will leave it up to the states. If it makes him look like a king, being most powerful, he will do it and he will have no shame in doing so.

You just radicalized the Supreme Court for a generation.

YOU MADE SURE THAT THE MOST POWERFUL PERSON IN THE WORLD THAT YOU ELECTED TO OFFICE WILL BECOME BEST BUDDIES WITH OUR ADVERSARIES, NAMELY PUTIN OF RUSSIA AND KIM JUNG UN OF NORTH KOREA.

YOU HAVE ALL BUT GUARANTEED THAT RUSSIA NOW WILL NEVER GIVE BACK THE LAND TO UKRAINE THAT WAS TAKEN FROM THEM IN A BLOODY WAR OF THE LAST TWO YEARS. Furthermore, YOU HAVE GIVEN THE POWER TO TRUMP TO SOLVE THE WAR IN UKRAINE HIS WAY IN ONE DAY. HOW DOES THAT TURN OUT.

  • FOR STARTERS, TRUMP WILL FORCE THE LEADER OF UKRAINE TO CONCEED TO PUTIN.
  • PUTIN WILL ACCEPT TO BE ABLE TO FINALLY GET OUT OF A WAR HE WAS NOT GOING TO EVER WIN WITH JOE BIDEN IN CHARGE OF AMERICAN POLICY, AND SAVE FACE WITH HIS PEOPLE.

Are you all ready for higher prices? 

Wait, I thought you voted for Trump because he was better for the economy. Just wait for the tariffs to start rolling in. You think China, or any other country that exports to the U.S. will pay tariffs on their goods to enter the country. Think again. THEY WILL NOT PAY TARIFFS. THE AMERIFAN PEOPLE WILL BE FORCED TO PAY HIGHER PRICES WHEN TARIFFS ARE ENFORCED ON GOODS THAT YOU WANT TO PURCHASE. EITHER PAY THE ADDED TAX OR YOU CANNOT PURCHASE THE GOODS.

Remember the southern border wall with Mexico?

In his last administration, Trump claimed that he would force Mexico to pay for the border wall. The American taxpayers  paid for it, not Mexico. Don’t be surprised after Trump builds more wall that he names it after himself.

Trump plans to close the southern border the first day and begin deporting immigrants who still are not citizens. That’s approximately 11 million people in this country, many of whom are contributing to the American economy, working in jobs, making products that you use every day. These people will be rounded up and deported. Trump will break up families. What do you think will happen to the economy when they are gone? Products that they helped make will become scarce. The products that can be purchased will cost more to buy.

Who in America owns an iPhone these days?

Last I checked, when I purchased mine, it cost over $1,000. With the tariffs imposed on imports from China and other countries, products like the iPhone will double. Why, because the tariff that was supposed to affect China will not affect them, the tariffs will affect you.

You just made women less safe and less free.

You just made this country an oligarchy with the billionaires quite literally in charge now.

You just put in office the one person that believes a president is a king, with the Supreme Court ruling to prove it in his back pocket!

You just ushered in Fascism.

BECAUSE YOUR CEREAL COSTS MORE.

Congratulations to ALL

who voted for TRUMP!
