What It’s
Like to Hit a Brick Wall Again and Again
I don’t trust the Deep State,
the media, the Democrats or many in Trump’s own party…they all slammed him
after his meeting with Putin. One cretin
Dem even called him a traitor but they never outed Hillary as a traitor after
she facilitated the sale of 20% of US uranium to Russians or when she lied
about Benghazi…
Dumb and
dumber sound off…
“Songbird”
McCain Blasts Trump Meeting With Putin as “Disgraceful” as Treasonous John
Brennan Calls on Republicans to Impeach Trump
The Openly Left-Wing
Periodical Post had this to say…
The Washington Post’s
Editorial Board said“Trump Just Colluded with Russia” in an Editorial published hours after
the meeting in Helsinki ended. The Post wrote ‘In Helsinki, Mr.
Trump again insisted “there was no collusion” with Russia. Yet in refusing
to acknowledge the plain facts about Russia’s behavior, while trashing his own
country’s justice system, Mr. Trump in fact was openly colluding with the criminal
leader of a hostile power.”
[Note: I still maintain
the Left –Hillary, Comey, the Media, etc. & many of Trump’s foes inside his
own party will paint the most negative picture they can from this meeting as
possible while ignoring the good the President has done in N. Korea and our
biggest threat: CHINA!]
Since
coming to office, Donald Trump has demanded that China address its blatant
theft of U.S. intellectual property, its gross trade surplus with the U.S., and
its many stealth barriers to American goods.
But
he just keeps hitting a brick wall.
After
the U.S. levied 25% duties on $34 billion worth of Chinese goods last Friday,
Beijing retaliated with similar tolls on the same amount of imports from the
U.S.
But now, Trump has upped the game, announcing
tariffs on another $200 billion worth of Chinese products.
That’s far more than
the TOTAL U.S. exports to China, which were only $127 billion in 2017. It means
that China has NO WAY to retaliate against the latest U.S. tariffs without
resorting to other weapons.
And sure enough, a statement this week from China’s Commerce
Ministry made precisely that point: It said China has no choice but to take
other “necessary countermeasures.”
All the Chinese leadership has to do is utter
one four-letter word:
SELL!
And this word alone is a surefire weapon that could bring America’s most critical
financial market to its knees: the U.S. government bond market.
The U.S. government now has over $20 trillion
in debt, mostly raised by selling Treasury bonds and other government
securities.
And outside of the Federal Reserve itself,
China is now THE single-largest owner of those bonds: $1.19 trillion
worth. In other words …
The U.S. has allowed
China to
become its BIGGEST BANK!
become its BIGGEST BANK!
I’ll give the
President credit-he’s the only one that has stood up to the ‘sleeping bear’
despite whining from the media about calls for the “sky is falling.” Yes, there will be pain in the short run, but
this is medicine sorely needed by this nation!
President
Trump has done a phenomenal job and never in my lifetime have I seen a
President who has accomplished as much; appointing a Supreme Court Justice,
Deregulation, Tax Reform and now a historic summit in North Korea leading to
pending Denuclearization, all in his first two years in office. Trump is
fulfilling his campaign cornerstone promises of Making America Great Again.
Lest
we forget the "wreckage of our past" & the previous
administration's 8 years of weak foreign policy, unfair trade agreements, the
Iran Nuclear deal, Obamacare and ultra-loose monetary policy! The previous
administration quadrupled our money supply, artificially suppressed interest
rates to near 0% and as this administration perseveres forward, as Trump
stated, "there will have to be some pain ahead in restoring America's
Greatness" and instituting his pro nationalist agenda while dismantling
the globalist agenda he adopted. That's why this election cycle is critical. If
Trump loses congress, we could see Obamacare resurrected, prolonged fights with
Trump weakening our economy and the undoing of several international policies
that Trump has corrected. Do you really think Pelosi or Sanders would ever put
America in a world of globalization? If liberals gain congress in October,
you'd better watch your savings.
Trump
will have to impose tariffs and initiate trade wars, raise rates as we watch
our economy grow and unemployment claims drop to historic lows. Inadvertently
these steps also adversely affects this historic bull run we've experienced in
stocks. It's a lot like his properties around the globe, he had to implode the
previous structures built on substandard foundations in order to build majestic
skyscrapers bearing his name.
Unfortunately,
there are risks in the global economy, pulling out of the Nuclear Agreement
with IRAN, we now have IRAN, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and China waging a WAR on
the US DOLLAR with the introduction of the PETROYUAN and the Shanghai Exchange
making the YUAN easily convertible into GOLD
Democrats are no longer Democrats…
C. Bradley Thompson,
assistant professor of political science at Ashland University wrote in 1993, Socialism's teaching
on self-sacrifice was nicely summarized by two of its greatest defenders,
Hermann Goering and Benito Mussolini. The highest principle of Nazism (National
Socialism), said Goering, is: "Common good comes before private
good." Fascism, said Mussolini, is "a life in which the individual,
through the sacrifice of his own private interests... realizes that completely
spiritual existence in which his value as a man lies."
Governments,
bureaucrats and politicians look upon the public as a herd that should be
deceived and led for the benefit of government and the elite. By and large it
works because the vast majority of Americans go along with the system — a
system which is just a form of legalized theft and government-sanctioned
slavery and plunder.
Again
from Professor Thompson: Under socialism there are built-in incentives to shirk
responsibility. There is no reason to work harder than anyone else because the
rewards are shared and therefore minimal to the hard-working individual;
rather, the incentive is to work less than others because the immediate loss is
shared and therefore minimal to the slacker. Socialism rewards sloth and
penalizes hard work.
When politicians utter
the word democracy, they are using a code word that signifies their total
allegiance to the state. They are using mass hypnosis to manipulate the people
against human liberty and private property.
The morality of
socialism is easily summed up in a few words: envy and sacrifice based on a
phony and coerced sense of altruism.

Trump by now should have learned an important lesson: nearly everyone [especially the deep state and on the Left] is ready to pounce on him no matter what he does or says...he is better off keeping his mouth closed and maintaining a lower profile.
Trump has taken a harder policy stance toward Russia than Obama, sending arms to the Ukraine to defend against Russian incursions but the press seems to forget this.
