A republican sweep

 The only question is how lazy Trump will be in a second term. He has strong majorities in both the house and the Senate and he can recast the United States more or less the way he wants. Obviously, the first step will be to continue his reform of the judiciary system with appointments of strongly pro-Republican judges in terms of healthcare American expects the removal of the Obama care and replace it with nothing, which is what the Republicans want anyway.

I suspect that Europe can put even money that NATO will be shut down within the next 18 to 24 months. Donald Trump has never liked European countries and would prefer a line with With President Putin, then with the European nations, he has greater affinity with that man than he does with a German, the French or the Brits.

I think it’s fair to expect massive increase in tariffs and massive reduction in taxes. America should be ready to see a removal of the Department of education and social services and removal of about four or five other departments, including education I would suspect that he will change federal law so that he can fire about half the federal government employees and introduce loyalty pledge for the new employees

I would suspect that his allies will require that a anti-abortion federal law be passed to make abortion illegal in all 52 states will include also limited of travel to women who are pregnant

in terms of immigration, which is probably the area where he has the strongest support I suspect that blanket removal of illegal immigrants will begin in earnest in the new administration rumours are there between 20 and 30 million illegal immigrants in the United States and they will all be kicked out quickly

of course, this all assumes that Trump does something he was very good and executive orders but very bad in passing laws, but for the first time, Donald Trump has the support of the Senate and of their house or representative. He also has the judges in his back pocket so he can do more or less what he pleases it’s entirely possible that the 2024 elections were the last real elections in United States of America, but and this is important to outline that was with the total support of America’s population he won not only a massive win with the electro college. He also won the popular vote people want mean people want nasty and that’s what they got.

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...
