grassroots

 Any shockingly close election considering how insane Donald Trump’s rhetoric is it is amazing to watch the ground effort that is being deployed by the GOP. For some obscure reason, they have been relying on third-party professional get out the vote gimmicks instead of using volunteers and local people. It’s not entirely clear why the JP is doing this, but considering it seems to be a widely used tactic clearly comes from the top.

My American acquaintances involved in GOP politics tell me that they’ve been cut out by These professionals. this is the first time anyone has seen such a thing it is normally expensive. It is hard to see how we will work. It seems part of the problem. Is that a lot of people inside the GOP who organize the GOP as opposed to doing the groundwork art deep disenchanted with Donald Trump‘s candidacy, his policy and his sheer madness entirely possible that the GOP head and brain thrust has decided that they local GOP cannot be trusted to deliver the votes on the day make no mistake. Donald Trump is pushing hard against men and voting, therefore forcing people to vote on the day , after the 2020 election, a lot of Americans have discovered the and simplicity of using mail in ballots. The ballots are delivered at your house Phil your votes and then you mail it to the US post service. It’s simple as no queue and you get out of the way the reality is that 2000 1680% of the mailing ballots would favour the GOP , but after 2020 this has started to change mainly because Donald Trump has said that mail in ballot is fraud 

GOP headquarters seems to have made that decision that they cannot count on mailing ballot and will try to discredit the mailing ballot which they believe will favour the Democrats and work with their professionals to bring out the votes on the election. It’s an interesting strategy. I don’t think it will work, but no one cares about my opinion, there has to be a serious reason why they are deploying these expensive strategy instead of relying on local GOP operatives

what people get wrong about tariffs

 The issue is simple. What percentage of the economy is dependent on tariff goods? The truth, is that the US economy is far more closed than people understand. People genuinely believe that all manufacturing has ceased to exist in the United States all given to China on the altar of woke policy the truth can be further from That statement. Only about 15% of US GDP is related to foreign trade. Of that amount, slightly more than half is from Canada in Mexico. And half of that is energy. What that means, is that about 7% of US GDP is tariff dependent. The proof in the pudding, is how little money tariff generates. People think that 30 or 50 billion is a lot it’s not in an economy that has $3 trillion. The impact on the US economy will be less visible but not absent. Inflation hasn’t occurred yet first because tests have hardly started to bite, but more importantly it’s such a small percent of the economy. Now certain things are critical. The rare earth metals from China were critical....

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, ...

Demographics

 I am preparing a kind of family tree for our children so that they know where they came from.  In my family I am the only survivor, although my brother and sister died recently they were both in their seventies (a story I told already).    It was a fun process, but it provided more than that.  First, I married relatively young I was 26 when I married and nearly 30 when our first child was born.   I was looking at my ancestors.  On my mother's side, she had 6 siblings, Four died before the age of 30, two in war, and two from illnesses.  Only she and a single sister survived.   The two boys had a child each but they died in WWII, and the other sister died as an infant.   what is interesting is that every one of my mother's siblings had children in their early 20s.   I know that my mom was hardly 20 when my brother was born.    What is remarkable is that among our friends, we are the only ones to have fou...
