State of the Union & the Oscars

 Truthfully, I watched neither, mainly because this has little to do with me.  A 50-year-old ex-City worker who now owns a farm.  While I didn't watch Joe Biden's little show on Thursday, I did "see" the blowback of the entire event on Friday evening with my sons.  First, as an outsider, if you compare Biden's speech with that of Trump on the same evening, you have to ask yourself, who is losing his marble, Trump was incoherent, granted we don't speak "American" but still it was bad, he sounded like an old man who was lost in his own stories.  Biden on the other hand sounded like a zippy old guy with all the right comebacks.  You know it's bad for the GOP when Biden started making jokes about his own age in his political ads. 

Adam insisted that I watch the Republican's rebuttal to Biden's State of the Union.  That was an unusual speech, why was she sitting in her kitchen?  The entire thing was off, her body language was unexplainable.  Since then the Republicans distanced themselves as if they had nothing to do with that monstrosity...

There is a lot of talk about Biden losing to Trump, frankly, I don't buy it.  The US economy is doing very well: growth rate, unemployment, and inflation are all going in the right direction.  The Republicans have little to campaign on aside from their glaring incompetence.  I mean when your #1 witness is arrested twice, the first time for lying and working with Russian spies, and the second time for trying to flee the country with the help of your GOP-paid lawyer.  It doesn't get much worse.

What's worse is that the electorate is not nearly as radical as the GOP, 70% of Americans are pro-abortion, more than half think that socialized medicine is a good idea, and the vast majority are for extending help to Ukraine.  All positions that the GOP strongly opposes.

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...
