Now what does America do?

 There was long talk of a "Blue wave" but in reality despite his character and his failures Trump remains strong in the race to remain in the White House.  Trump's biggest success has been the rise of the national debt from US$ 19 trillion to US$ 27 Trillion.   Under Trump we have seen the single largest increase in the national debt -- at a time when the economy was "doing well".  that is what made Americans vote for Trump in 2020 -- I'm I better off today than I was 4 years ago!  A surprisingly large percentage of the population 45% have said they are better off with only about 35% saying they are worse off.  That kind of cash injection into the economy will create wealth! The reality is that this a tremendous advantage.  people vote with their wallet and their conscience -- you may not agree with your neighbor he may be an immigrant completely against immigration, it can be a neighbor who sees only one factor affecting their voting decision:  Abortion! 

These single issues are often the sole reason people decide to vote -for a specific party - a large percentage of the population will vote for "their party" without knowing anything about its policies, they simply don't care.

Clearly many polls were wrong! Iowa is certainly a massive outlier with polling showing Biden with an 8% edge and Trump winning by 4% -- that is a massive difference, how did the polls get it so very wrong?

The question is now what?  It looks like Biden will win by a small majority of electoral college voters -- right now it could take a while for the results to finally come out.  Certain states counted the votes as they arrive others counted them afterward, this for many reasons but mostly because absentee ballots used to be such a small number of voters -- often it didn't matter -- if one candidate won by 30,000 votes and there were only 20,000 absentee ballots...  

First, I suspect that Trump will be quiet because both candidates need to win some of the absentee ballots, too many races are still wide open, but in places where absentee ballots can make the difference...for the democrats expect lawsuits to stop the counting.


By hook or by crook Trump aims to win

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
