President Trump, again?
Donald Trump will inevitably become the GOP nominee and most likely will win the 2024 election! So, let us correctly assess his first-term and then look ahead.
Again, it is Trump!
Just like in 2016, Donald Trump may well surprise many to win the 2024 election. Two projections:
- Trump will be the GOP nominee, thanks to MAGA.
- Trump will defeat President Biden in November, thanks to the Independents, most of whom would choose a pathological liar over a war hawk as the lesser of two evils.
Biden meets Xi today!
Today, China’s Xi is scheduled to meet with President Biden in San Francisco (Biden to meet Xi on Wednesday in San Francisco Bay area, US says).
What can we expect from this meeting?
Nothing substantial, other than it is nice for them to talk face-to-face.
Specifically, three perspectives:
- Trust.
- Competition.
- It is the system, stupid!
Let me briefly elaborate on each …
Election 2024: Anybody but Joe Biden!
Although the 2024 general election is still more than one year away, I have already made up my mind: anybody but Joe Biden!
Here is the reason: The war in Ukraine poses an existential threat to mankind, as it may result in World War III, thus destroying us all as a species. President Biden could have prevented that war from breaking out but chose not to. Moreover, he can stop the war any time now but has yet to do so.
The Trump phenomenon explained
Here is the highlight of the Trump phenomenon:
- 2016: He was elected the American President.
- 2020: He lost his re-election bid to Joe Biden.
- 2024: He has a good chance to beat President Biden, despite having been indicted multiple times in both the State (GA) and Federal courts.
“We the People” have had enough!
“We the People,” so begins the U.S. Constitution – It was a powerful slogan for a new nation founded with neither a king nor a pope.
Unfortunately, it was a lie – It was a lie in 1789, and it remains a lie today!
Europe without America?
No, it will not happen soon!
A Google search of the same title has resulted in just one book: Europe without America?, whose cover is highlighted above. It was published in 1988. But Europe is still with America today. Why is that?
Voting is overrated!
The 2022 midterm election is over. Regardless of the final tally, here are two certainties for America:
- The GOP will become the majority in the House, which means payback time for the Democrats, including the possibility of having President Biden impeached.
- The American government will continue to be dysfunctional, and America will thus continue to decline, precipitously.
Why and how can America be so hopelessly in a rabbit hole?
Voting is overrated!
American Carnage vs. American Revolution
During the American Carnage on January 6, 2021, some rioters shouted “1776 again” while storming the Capitol Hill. This comparison of the American Carnage and the American Revolution is actually valid.
Two main reasons:
- Each had a big lying slogan (Stop the Steal vs. No taxation without representation).
- Both were instigated by some lying leaders!
