New Administration ? What to expect. Perhaps even a New Administration ?
SO…
What to expect from a new poopy pants administration.
I am going to portray a very realistic view here based on what he has said and his history.
Let’s start with the appointments.
He wants ultimate control. Of everything. Every dept head is just potential interference.
So, he nominates the worst he can and at the same time seem like he is extending political favor to his supporters.
They are players in this game and like others, will end up under the bus.
It is intentional that he submits names that he knows will not get past the senate and will likely run the dept’s himself which is just what he wants.
Just watch the second choices.
The republicans will try to downplay any look of conflict. But it is there. Put it on a good face. Wear a mask.
Know that everything so strange has a purpose. Even if you are unaware of what it is.
So as we approach the end of Feb and he does not have a full cabinet, except those acting in temporary we are getting ahead of ourselves.
We have this Ukraine war to end before Jan 22. He is looking frantically for a solution to this before the day comes.
That will turn to muddying the water when he realizes, it’s not going to happen unless he makes a deal with Russia’s oligarch’s.
Some way to treat the man who fed you all these years. A sign that talk is just talk. Governing is hard work. And everything has implications.
So, while we re-live the daily chaos once again,
Starting with DEPORTATION.
There is an issue between those that supported him actually loosing their cheap workers.
So some exceptions will need to be made. So, it’s OK to have them if they are willing to work as slave labor for some US oligarch’s profit.
And they still will put up with the lack of safety rules in workforce with the threat of deportation hanging over them.
After all, those are the rules many went to China to bypass. We can home grow our own second class humans by importing them.
So, just who will be exempted… those who contributed to his campaign ? Redefine who is an immigrant ? Or just who they work for ?
Speaking of China.
No matter what tariffs they attempt to put in place,
China is now prepared to go after US oligarch’s which are supporters of the admin for they also have investments and manufacturing inside of China.
They learned a lot from the first go around and a good bit more from the US sanctions on Russia.
So… it is a test of will to see if the money in the US can withstand this.
The tariffs alone have repercussions, the retaliation will be even worse for the money of that inner circle
.
Ah… it’s always about the bottom line.
So will we have exception to these rules as well ? Have any teeth left or just for show.
Sounds like American Eception-ism. Headed right for some payola account.
While this stuff is trying to work itself to the surface, and I would consider it bad news for the admin, and look forward to culture plays in domestic politics to fill the headline daily so you don’t notice any of it.
We all know what that looks like. Have you forgot ?
So my real question is will any of the nations business get some work done to it in the first 6 months ?
We will have a debt limit extension that needs attention.
A budget agreement or a continuing extension ? for 4 years ?
When does this social security problem show it’s face ? Or should I say the solution for a problem that has yet to surface ? It makes reason for a change not many will like.
Speaking of that, are we going to make SS tax free ? It does not mean what you think.
Those folks who are collecting SS are not making enough to pay taxes on as it is. So you are giving a exemption to those who make lots of money.
For the low income /poor segment is not paying income tax on this money now..
That’s about $8k a year in tax savings to those that do not need it.
Speaking of no-tax on income….
No taxes on tips. Sounds like a good idea right.
While we all have the image in our mind or some waitress working her tail off to earn a living for her family,
it is the intent for money mangers to pay employee’s in TIPS for performance and those would be tax free as well.
If everyone is getting tax free but me, who wil pay the bills ?
These 2 tax free items could cost the government $500,000,000.
And somehow we are going to find 2 trillion ( $2,000,000,000,000 ) in savings to pay for it, but you have already run the cost up 1/4th of that.
So now you need to find a savings of $2,500,000,000,000.
If you fired all federal employee’s of the government, you can’t save 2 trillion bucks. So where will that be when they are not getting fired ?
They could shuffle the social security funds around and keep some of that in the budget. But someone is not getting paid as they were.
SS is 1/3 of the budget. Yea… you could get it all from there. I’m not promoting the idea, but it’s looking at me as the admin’s solution.
So, the idea of privatizing social security has been rolling around for decades. The US has never actually had a ‘TRUST FUND’ for it.
If so, just where is that money ? We should be making money on it somewhere. Where is the interest on it ? How much is that ?
Don’t be surprised if employer contributions disappear in this shuffle. But you do have to ‘sell-it’ as something juicy’ even if it is a lie.
But in all of this mess we will soon have to experience.
Nothing comes out of thin air. There is someone behind the scene promoting the ideas that have some motivation for doing so.
This has every indication that it is some big money mangers. Vance may be evidence of some of that.
For I don’t expect it will be long before there is a conflict between the man who wants all the power and those who want all the money.
Baked-in to this pie, is a method to oust POTUS and let Vance take over. The man is so corrupt and such a liar that it should not be hard to catch him and turn on him to make this happen.
It’s a pretty safe bet if you like to do such things.
It’s all about these critical picks of who is in that cabinet in the beginning that are confirmed by the senate. Will they be owned by the money or the power hungry ?
Will he even make it to the mid-term elections is my question. I doubt if the money has enough time to make the changes they want short of 3 years, but it could be.
President Vance ? He was the tell tale sign of what was actually going on in this power/money play. My bet is on the money.
For they also have a large percentage of influence in Congress.
Break a glass and we can glue it together again.
Burn it down and then what do you do ?
Be the glue and the water.
