THE OUTGOING AND INCOMING PRESIDENCIES – PREDICTION?

Prediction is a fool’s errand since a presidency is largely the result of world events and the character of the president.

OBAMA’s MISTAKES

Obama’s biggest mistake was the whole fraudulent health care episode(scam) over the wishes of the population. second was his attempt to remove america from world affairs by creating a vacuum to be filled opportunistically, rather than an alliance to fill it predictably. Third was his embracing of anti-white immigration policies. Fourth was his failure to grasp that with the end of world communism and the universal adoption of consumer capitalism, as well as the international rejection of western universal representative democracy in favor of state corporatism, and the rise of islam as the successor to communism as the competition to consumer capitalism, all brought a sympathetic end to globalism, a return to nationalism.

TRUMP’S NEED FOR POWER AND ITS SOURCES

Trump has been given a mandate by his SUPPORTERS to end the status quo (globalism). Right intellectuals (myself included) are most concerned about ending the Cathedral Complex (Academy, State, Media), that replaced the Military Industrial Complex during the 1960’s. He has given himself the mandate to end american self sacrifice on the behalf of an ungrateful world. And to attempt to make the future (coming) hyper-contraction of the world economy as the BRICS end their rapid expansion, more survivable.

I expect that he cannot accumulate enough power to fulfill his charter without a significant house cleaning. And so what I expect is a house cleaning. This will likely come in the form of an attack on the bureaucracy as well as the news media, and an emphasis on consumers, jobs, and advantageous trade policy – which will force the bureaucracy into a competition with him that will fail.

So what i will watch is how he communicates directly to the american people, in his progress and how the court cooperates. If he is able to fill the court and overturn the power of the central bureaucracy, then he will be able to do it.

The thing he must preserve is his base. They will only turn on him (the right eats its betrayers while the left does not), if he fails to pursue immigration and trade reforms.

THE COUNTER-REACTION

The media – which is already suffering from loss of its narrow distribution channel may survive if they try hard but my suspicion is that the media is now in the same position as the think tanks, and will require financial support even more so to survive.

I like the ‘fake news’ movement because the solution is to make commercial and political speech liable just as product and service claims are liable. That would end the news media forever as a mechanism of propaganda.
