I agree on probably everything, except for maybe building the wall. At least the wall would be my lowest priority.

Pass some new laws and enforce existing laws to remove these people who don't belong here to, sure...

But we don't even need to do that. Just cut them and their children off of public aid, healthcare, school, etc. No free government money. Also let it be known that anybody caught hiring illegals for their business will face heavy penalties. Penalties big enough to hurt them if they are large corporations. And let the illegals know that when they get caught working in America they and their entire family will be taken to the Mexican border and be released in Mexico.

The problem fixes itself overnight and we don't even need to build a wall.

By all means, build the wall too... but I think unless you're building something the quality of the Great Wall of China, any bullshit fence we put up there is not really anything more than symbolic.

Trump is fine.
He is also your current President.

During the campaign, Trump often said that he would initiate the largest “mass deportation” effort in U.S. history if elected. Recently, he also warned Mexico that he would impose a 25 percent tariff targeting the country if it fails to curb illegal immigration and that he would raise that tariff if Mexico doesn’t comply.

Also, he’s suggested more enhanced screenings for immigrants, ending birthright citizenship—which may require a constitutional amendment—and reimposing certain policies enacted during his first term such as the “remain in Mexico” protocol

. . .

Trump has pledged to reduce the corporate tax rate from 21 percent to 15 percent for companies that make their products in the United States. In a bid to win Nevada, Trump earlier this year pledged to end the taxation of tips and overtime wages to aid some service workers and waiters.

He has pledged not to tax or cut Social Security benefits. Trump also has said that as president, he would pressure the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates but wouldn’t make any demands on the central bank.

. . .

Trump floated the idea of a 10 percent or more tariff on all goods imported into the United States, which he said would eliminate the country’s trade deficit.

He has also said he should have the authority to set higher tariffs on countries that have put tariffs on U.S. imports. He has threatened to impose a 200 percent tariff on some imported cars, saying he is determined in particular to keep cars from Mexico from coming into the country.

Trump has targeted China in particular. He proposes phasing out Chinese imports of goods such as electronics, steel, and pharmaceuticals over four years. He seeks to prohibit Chinese companies from owning U.S. real estate and infrastructure in the energy and tech sectors.

. . .

In multiple instances, Trump said he would reauthorize drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska, which was suspended under the Biden administration.

Meanwhile, he would pull the United States out of the Paris Climate Accords, a worldwide plan that claims to reduce carbon emissions. Trump also said he would roll back some federal policies around electric vehicles.

Trump has never had Speaker Johnson to work with before, get that coordinated and organized. Find a Senate leader, not another RINO.

Speakers at times are some of the most dirty corrupt people on the planet, Trump should not be fooled by this creationist idiot, he voiced support for BLM Antfa rioters and he has an adopted Black son and he blames Whites for the crimes of Michael, their relationship is weird and they monitored each other’s booty porn intake, he said the voting system came from Hugo Chávez's Venezuela but Chavez is dead and Johnson did not get arrested like Pete Navarro or Rudy Giuliani...maybe he's a useful idiot...the pro-Sharia Law types might like him or the few Evangelical left among the old royal Britbongs, he funds Walls for Israel is that why you are happy? Johnson believes that Humans rode on Dinosaurs and human activity is not the cause of pollution or climate change, the Bible is a Documentary of Earth's history and God sent The Rainbow as a promise he would not Flood the Earth again.

Rabobank: The 2nd Trump Admin Is Staffed With MAGA Talent Pool Which Knows How Levers Of Power Work
Thursday, Nov 07, 2024 - 08:05 AM

By Michael Every of Rabobank

Global Daily in the past few years it has been that major shifts in politics and geopolitics, especially ones people don’t like, are going to matter to markets. ... the major market moves we saw yesterday are likely just the start, not the end of this process.

It now seems the Republicans may take narrow control of the House of Representatives as well as the Senate and presidency, giving them the trifecta. While that was also true in 2016, the first Trump administration was a chaotic affair initially [un]aware of what it could do, with the Republicans deeply divided over ‘Trumpism’. By contrast, the second Trump administration is staffed with a motivated MAGA talent pool which knows how the levers of power work domestically and internationally. Many things could change very significantly, very quickly.

. . .

People are already talking about a surge in freight rates if Chinese/global exporters try to flood the US with goods now to front-run any 60%(+?) US tariffs. As has been pointed out here repeatedly, there’s been no underlying improvement in US logistics since the Covid supply-chain crisis, and under a sudden surge of demand strains will be seen and freight rates will rise, with global ripple effects: and the ILA east coast US port strike still looms from 15 January.

However, also note Trump economic advisor Bessent is being considered for Treasury Secretary: I again underline he favors a ‘T+X’ tariff plan that gives global firms, say, two years to build factories in the US to avoid sanctions, reducing most of their direct inflation impact, but getting all the capex, supply-side, and trade-deficit narrowing gains – Samsung yesterday said this is what they plan to do. That might mean new economic models are needed for US tariffs - if economists want to model the world as it is rather than as they (or their models) want it to be.

. . .

The focus now shifts to what China’s policy response to a Trump win will be. ... Imagine a go-go US pre-tariff boom and a go-go real China stimulus.

Similarly, we have heard market whispers that tariffs = a large CNY [Chinese yuan] depreciation, and yesterday saw CNY weaken the most in one session for almost two years. However, if that happens, Trump will logically shout for even higher tariffs, and a downwards spiral begins that drags in the entire global economy. Can you see how this dynamic geopolitical and geoeconomic process is not your traditional macro or FX model? Or that the answer to most of the potential questions posed above is *NOT* “rate cuts”?

. . .

Moreover, as the Fed meets today, rumor swirls of Trump still wanting an ex-officio rate-setting advisory role, that Powell won’t be reappointed, and that Trump might even name his successor in advance, muddying the monetary waters. Assuming this is all true, one is going to have to start factoring politics (and potentially even geopolitics) into central banking (“You want a swap line? We have a quid pro quo for you.”), as our Fed Watcher Philip Marey has already alluded to recently. Again, that calls for new models to capture the world as it is, not as we would like it to be.

[Germany ... Brazil ... Australia...]


Do you see what I mean about the need to ask better questions and to think about new economic models?

Yeah. We're not going to have the clownshow of Bannon's people in the cabinet this time.

I hope Trump boots Bannon. I've never liked that dude. I wouldn't mind if he was still in prison until Trump picks his cabinet. I don't want his hands on anything.

I don't know all that backstory from Jaynez or how true it all is, but I agree with him about Speakers in general. There's a reason why Mike Johnson is in that position right now. I don't know enough about him to baselessly call him a Neo-Con, but how could he not at least be Neo-Con adjacent?

If I were Trump, I wouldn't trust the guy simply because he was the one voted into that position in the first place. Me sitting here not being Trump doesn't want to hear his name again, other than when he's handing the job off to almost anybody else.

I still remember the shit-show that took place that ultimately led him to be Speaker, but just because that all went down doesn't mean that I trust Johnson anymore than I did Kevin McCarthy.

Not priority, but 250th July 4th will at least have a real President.

Hochul, Leticia James, Bragg, Juan Merchan and his daughter can all be arrested for Civil Rights Violations, and held until their sentencing. Charges can also be filed against them, when time affords.
Same for every DC judge who has held J6 victims without trial, or fair trial, for the last 4 years. Also keep them in cell until sentencing - whenever we get around to that.

Check if DeSantis needs any help getting those container ship unloaded.

I hope Vivak, Elon, Tulsi, Sarah Palin, Eric Hovde get jobs to help out.

Ken Paxton might be good for AG.
Riley Gaines for DEI Czar.
Scott Walker for Education.
John Durham for FBI Director
Ben Carson Surgeon General



Liz Cheney for Ambassador to Mexican Cartels.
Oprah for Ambassador to the Nation of Hamas.
Beyonce for Ambassador to Nation of Hezbollah.
Taylor Swift for Ambassador to Nation of Palestine. She might even spend 4 years searching maps for it.
AOC for Ambassador to Nation of Gaza.
