The Smart Money is on America, and Trump

Forget the polls.  Look at the future.  Look at the next two years.  When Trump asks voters for a second term, he’ll point out what he’s done in his first.

The economy.    There are historical and geopolitical forces in play which are driving capital to the United States.  As Europe unravels, the middle east goes to war, and as China weakens under the weight of American pressure, America is the safe haven of the world.  That’s why Chinese spend a fortune to give their children American birthright citizenship.  If you’ve got serious money, you want a lot of it safely in the USA.  This inflow of capital is taming inflation, which allows deficit spending, and it ends up producing wealth.  Our GDP will continue to expand at a solid rate, American industry revives, full employment continues, and wages rise for the working man and woman.

Foreign affairs.   Trump will not lead this country into war.  He will run as a peace President.  We’ll be well out of Afghanistan, and drawn down in Iraq, and American casualties will be a rarity.  We are asserting ourselves economically around the world, no longer willing to be taken advantage of.  The new trade relationships Trump is establishing will all redound to the benefit of the American worker.

Presidents who produce peace and prosperity get reelected.  Trump has a third plank  —  security.  The wall.

The Democrats are a coalition of the discontented, aligned with their champions, the ruling elite.  The energy in the party is from those who despise their own heritage.  They’re ashamed to be Americans.  Since we stole this country, we have no right to keep others out.  These self hating extremists are the tail that is wagging the Democratic dog.

So it is that the Democrats have become the party that is against border security.  They are handing Donald Trump his reelection on a platter.

Trump has been wily enough to use his faults to his advantage.  He makes his outrageous, abusive behavior work for him.  It  provokes his opponents into unreasoning hatred.  They don’t care if what he wants makes any sense.  It he’s for it, they’re against it.

With peace, prosperity, and security, Trump can’t be beat.
