Election Interference

Finally, something from Donald Trump that is accurate and which people can support. The election in 2020 was rigged. Those who think it wasn't are wrong. Documents are now being declassified and released to the public; finally, an opportunity exists to discover what was, and may still be going on.

It is incredible to think about the journey we've been on. First came the years-long coup to undermine the first Trump administration, culminating in the rigged election. Then, Trump was de-banked and he dodged several attempts on his life, one of which would have been successful except for an invisible hand intervening and moving Donald Trump's head to one side.

Weeks before the US election in 2020, there was a New Zealand election and it was also rigged. I believe it was used as a practise run. A full investigation of that event cannot be conducted as the ballot papers were destroyed.

Democrats Turn On Obama

The forever entitled and preachy Barack and Michelle Obama seriously hurt the Kamala Harris campaign, and Democratic voters seem to have figured that out.

The Obamas support the Obamas. They're not interested in the working class, or the middle class for that matter, and as time passes they become ever more cut off from mainstream opinion. Basically, they need to retire. Barack Obama, in particular has started sounding different when he talks down to black Americans. He changes his accent somewhat and throws y'all and folks around like he's from Alabama or something. It's cringeworthy stuff, but he appears unaware of what he sounds like.

Barack Obama has had a good ride, but his schtick has become stale. He's a divider, not a uniter.

Looking at Moving to New Zealand?

Many Americans appear depressed now that Donald Trump has been elected President for a second term. Internet searches related to New Zealand have increased. Before making the move there are a few things to consider, and many such things are addressed in my book: Snob's Guide to New Zealand

Another Trump Assassin

Make this the fourth attempt, this man was arrested after making threats:

https://nypost.com/2024/10/29/us-news/pennsylvania-man-arrested-for-allegedly-threatening-trump/

A 74-year-old Pennsylvania resident was arrested for allegedly threatening to kill former President Donald Trump a day before his Penn State rally, declaring: “I’d like to shoot that guy.”

Paul J. Gavenonis — who uses she/her pronouns, according to the Centre County Public Defender’s Office — was nabbed after she was overheard making the alleged threats while trying to buy a parking pass at the university’s transportation office last Friday, the Lexington Herald Leader reported.

“I hate Donald Trump. I’d like to shoot that guy,” Gavenonis allegedly said after making a gun-racking motion with her hand.

It's all about Family

Russell Brand has noticed a trend in this year's US election cycle. The powers-that-be are going to push family, the social connections that bind us, and the idea that only the powers-that-be can protect us, keep us safe. 

It reminds me of those bank advertisements on television that portray a life of yesteryear that never was. A world tinted and slightly out of focus, a world full of warm hugs and joyous laughter.

Hang on...don't forget they tried to kill us, put us under house arrest, saddled us with a mountain of debt, caused galloping inflation and now seem intent on declaring WWIII.

US Midterm Elections 2022

What a damp squib that turned out to be. Surely Donald Trump is finished now. The man who brought us Operation Warp Speed that has resulted in the poisoning of so many. He hasn't apologised, instead he boasts of his accomplishment. The Republicans need to find someone to run in 2024, that is not Donald Trump. My pick would be Ron DeSantis, but that's just me.

USA: Rigging the 2020 Election

I wondered how it was done. Now we know at least one way, human 'mules' were used to stuff ballot drop boxes. Please view the documentary trailer below...

Should Donald Trump start his own Party?

Go for it and build on Trumpism by starting another party. Recruit members from the bottom to the top and stand in all elections across the United States. There would be widespread support and too many candidates to make rigging possible. Just think, the new Trump party could end up holding the balance of power in the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Let's face it, the GOP stabbed Donald Trump in the back. The only way to drain the swamp is to take it over. New members of the party could have Democrats amongst them. There are a lot of upsides to the proposal. Imagine a party actually delivering on its campaign promises.

Failure of the Polls

The outcome of the US Election hangs in the balance, Joe Biden has the inside track and may win, while Donald Trump still clings on and he could come through to win. However, in all of this confusion one thing does stand out and that is the failure of the American polling companies to make any prediction. The conclusion must be that the pollsters are now trying to influence outcomes rather than reflect or report which way the wind is blowing. Henceforth, we should never trust these poll results, they're clearly worthless.

The Press Betrayed America

The media is failing the voting public. They've become a danger to democracy, not defenders of it..

Trump or Biden?

The final debate between the US President, Donald Trump and his challenger, former Vice President Joe Biden has just concluded. There was no clear winner as both appeared to be talking to those narrower demographics they needed to win over on November 3.

Trump trails Biden in opinion polls across the USA. However, this was also the case back in 2016. Then it was clear to any casual observer that Trump was going to win and I blogged about it at the time. That's because outside of California and New York, Trump was widely popular. There was a mood for change. 

The popular vote doesn't count in presidential elections, rather, candidates must secure the Electoral College and to do that they must receive no fewer than 270 Electoral College votes. Biden could end up in the same position as Hillary Clinton in 2016, safe in California and the north-eastern states, but washed out in the middle of the country. Based on current polling, Biden has a clear advantage, but if Trump pulls in enough toss-up states, he could certainly be reelected.

So, what's my prediction? If I was a gambler I'd pick Biden. However, I'm going with Trump to repeat 2016. I know, this is something of a surprise as I was heavily invested in Hillary Clinton back in 2016, but I correctly called it for Trump back then anyway.

This time I can see the last four years haven't been a disaster and crucially, no wars. Trump is now increasingly popular with African American and Latino men and their numbers could just tip the balance in some toss-up states.

Biden is getting old and sounds disjointed at times. I read somewhere that if he wins he'll become the President who has done least to win. He hasn't been out there doing enough, instead relying on people like Barack Obama and his running mate Kamala Harris. The latter is eminently qualified, but I don't see her resonating with voters. Why? She's from California and worse still, she's from San Francisco. Americans love to hate California and San Franciscans. 

Americans will be aware that Harris could become President given Biden's age. The only President from California was Richard Nixon. I am sure many older voters will remember this and avoid Harris. It's a small point I know, but the challenger has to win, all Trump has to do is repeat his Electoral College success, he's not interested in winning the popular vote.

My record when it comes to making predictions is pretty good although not stellar. I long predicted Brexit, that the referendum would be in favour of leaving the EU. I also predicted Scotland remaining within the UK but didn't see their leaving as a big problem in any case. I predicted Jacinda Ardern's victory in New Zealand in 2017 and Boris Johnson's victory in the UK after remain camp stalling tactics in the Palace at Westminster. However, I have also got things wrong, the most recent being Ardern's reelection and increased majority in 2020 after a prolonged period of economic mismanagement by her.

So, we'll see. My head says Biden based on the polls. But I'm calling it Trump in 2020 based on what happened in 2016 and Biden not working hard enough in the campaign.

Update: looking at the electoral map from 2016, several states narrowly won by Clinton in 2016 may go Trump in 2020. The much talked about critical states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania may not come into play at all. If Trump loses all three but picks up Nevada and Colorado, he still holds on to the Presidency (assuming other states remain as they were in 2016).
