What An Imperfect President Has Done So Far
December 21, 2017
He’s
boastful. He’s brash. I get the idea he is his own hero. He Twitters
in knee-jerk fashion when unfairly criticized in social media (two can
play that game he says). I can’t imagine the next
President firing back
at critics via Twitter, or any succeeding President. But Mr. Trump is
Mr. Trump. Americans may end up thanking him for saving what is left of
a democracy. And Americans get to view the Executive Branch as a fully
transparent branch of government on Twitter. Can you imagine?
When Americans wake up and realize they aren’t going to get meaningful pay raises (incomes are stagnant in the US),
they had better realize that criticism of President Trump’s corporate
tax rate cut from 40% to 20% does not just benefit wealthy corporate
stockholders. A tax cut should result in a 20% drop in the cost of goods
and services, which is a back-door pay raise. So far, nobody has
mentioned this.
In fact,
taxes on corporations should be zero so other countries can’t set their
corporate tax rates below the US tax rate so its companies can
out-compete American companies. The lost tax revenues can be made up
with a small sales tax.
Time to buy old US gold coins
In the
larger scheme of things, ~$400 billion of tax revenues would be lost
with a zero-percent corporate tax rate, but the federal government
spends ~$6.6 trillion a year (source: ShadowStats.com,
2013 figures) and takes in ~$3.3 trillion, with the difference being
made up by black-op money (illicit drugs) and just printing the money.
So what’s $400 billion (1/10th of 1
percent of federal spending) when the government is printing another
$3.3 trillion? The idea of a balanced budget is beyond practical.
America is living an unearned lifestyle. Government is hooked on
giveaways to appease the masses.
You’re Fired!
Another
thing President Trump is bringing to the Federal Government is his
“You’re Fired” attitude. Did you see what happened when Dr. Tom Price,
Health & Human Services Secretary, took charter air flights at
government expense? He was asked to resign.
Draining the swamp
There is
criticism President Trump isn’t “draining the swamp” in Washington DC as
fast as he promised. But actually Trump IS draining the swamp by
attrition– not replacing State Department diplomats who resign and he has made paper shufflers out of remaining State Department diplomats.
The State Department is riddled with Hilary Clinton appointees who struck a deal with Hillary Clinton to
allow removal or destruction of electronic records the former State
Department chief had hidden. The FBI has also been fingered for
covering up Clinton misdeeds, like the pre-election Bill Clinton-Loretta Lynch (former Attorney General) meeting on the tarmac at the Phoenix airport and the FBI agent whose emails revealed bias against
the new President. There is evidence Hillary Clinton’s Presidential
campaign covertly took over the Justice Department. One critic of the
leftover government says maybe the FBI should be shut down.
While many
patriotic Americans may believe President Trump hasn’t done enough to
“drain the swamp,” if you have time listen to Kay Griggs, wife of a
military officer, talk about the corruption and sexual immorality in our military ranks.
It is only coincidence that the Trump Administration has fired 60 admirals over a procurement (search under “Fat Leonard”) scandal at the center of this corruption.

Fake News and the CIA
And if you are a Trump critic and are bothered by all of his golfing outings and trips to his resort in Mar-a-Lago, Florida at taxpayers expense, Washington DC has become a trap for this President. There is no hiding, major news media airs slanted news reports his appointees are about to resign, he is mentally unstable, he is about to be impeached, and that his administration is ruining the State Department.
It is a logical step that infiltration by the Central Intelligence Agency to control the nation’s news media, initially for so-called patriotic reasons to issue government propaganda, morphed into fake news of a political nature.
The news media is gulping hard to concede it has distributed “fake news.” President Trump is single-handedly winning the war against the news media (and
indirectly against the CIA). Whatever vestiges of a democracy are
left in America rely on a neutral unbiased news media acting as watchdog
over government. That idea vanished long ago.
Look what the news media failed to report during the Obama Administration:
- The Obama Administration literally swiped $300 million from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac home loan agencies to fund Obamacare. That money was stolen from shareholders of these lending institutions.
- While President Donald Trump is criticized for his continued query into the Barack Obama’s birth certificate fiasco, alternative news sources have uncovered some seemingly convincing evidence that Mr. Obama’s birth certificate really is fake.
- The Hollywood Reporter airs a story about Ann Dunham, Barack Obama’s mother, showing photographs she was a stripper. Forget that these photos were distributed for political purposes. Why didn’t the news media ever disclose this information? You examine the photos for yourself. Obama himself worked for the CIA. His mother was employee and consultant to companies that are CIA fronts. But with CIA agents planted at major news media outlets, the public never heard about all this till after the elections.
There is a lot more to come in this political drama that grips America every day. Stay tuned.
