US Presidential Election 2016

Who will win the 2016 Presidential election?

Update: Trump won. Even if he is not perfect, Clinton would have destroyed America with socialist policies. I do not like Trump’s spending and debt, especially on the military. This will unfold in another economic crisis. However, Clinton would have been worse.  Trump needs to win in 2020 including a GOP control of Congress or America could slip back.

If I were President I would:

  • Get rid of the Federal Reserve and replace it with a gold standard.
  • Balanced Budget Amendment.
  • Bring the troops back home.

It will be a Trump versus Clinton contest.

The main difference between the two candidates are:

  1. Trump knows business and Clinton knows government.
  2. Under Trump, there will be an expansion of jobs and wages.
  3. Under Clinton, there will be an expansion of government and taxes.

I will vote for Donald Trump, as he promotes economic prosperity in America through a free market and individual liberties.  Both Clintons have a track record of public dishonesty and serving foreign special interests.  We are voting for a leader and honesty matters.  Hilary Clinton is being investigated by the FBI and supported by the political establishment. As of October 29th, 2016, that investigation is on.  Donald Trump will shake things up and stand up for the middle class. Clinton will continue to pave the road to socialism. The mainstream media will paint Trump this way or that, but he has ideas about lowing taxes and helping this country that will have a positive impact on your life.

I will not vote for Hillary Clinton as she will continue to drive up to the US Debt past the 24 Trillion marks (which is the point of no return), promote socialistic policies and decrease the security of the United States and decreases freedoms for Americans.

Hilary Clinton aspires to be the Angela Merkel (Germany) of America.  If you like how Europe has opened the floodgate for Middle Eastern immigration and is wallowing in debt, this will be the future of America after the Clinton coronation. Clinton could even lead to a separatist movement as we see in the EU. For example, would Texas ever have a referendum?

If you prefer a street smart entrepreneur who is a leader and has a common-sense approach who will champion people who work and stand up for Americans, vote for Trump. I saw Donald Trump in Saint Augustine, Florida. His sincerity that he really wants to save America from its slide downhill impressed me. His intelligence and down to earth approach was clear. He will make America great again. I voted for him in early voting.

The election polls go up and down. However, Trump will ultimately win based on the issues and the intelligence of the American people.

Hillary Rodham Clinton – Democrat

Pros:
None

Hillary Clinton Marxist
After Clinton’s coronation she will continue to trickle Marxist ideologies into the US (social medicine, more taxes, raise minimum wage but not help real wages), flounders on Islamic terrorism and opens the doors for questionable immigration (e.g. Syrians who are mostly men in their 20s with no families or adequate ability for a real screening).

Cons:

The world will not collapse if Hilary Clinton gets elected President in 2016, however, it will not be a better place and I recommend you consider the reasons.

An elitist waiting for her royal coronation – Are you telling me, in all of the US, there is not a better, smarter more talented choice than a career politician and the wife of a former president? She put up with Bill’s cheating so she could get her to turn to play queen and ruler in power. The US has endless amounts of talented women, I have seen them in business and all walks of life, Clinton is not one of them.

Debt – You can not spend your way out of debt. If you are in debt you have to fix the leak. If the USA crosses the twenty-four billion-dollar mark, that is the end of stability. This will happen with Hilary Clinton as President. Henceforth it will become mathematically infeasible to ever get out of debt, and soon the fixed payments like interest will exceed tax revenues.

One solution would be for the US to start printing trillion dollar bills. Of course, we would all be wearing barrels when hyperinflation kicks in.  People do not realize how serious having a Clinton Presidency would be based on the debt alone.  Economists argue that the debt to income ratio (GDP) is what really matters.  However,  if there is an economic downturn the cycle will be exacerbated as this crowds out private investment and drives up the real interest rate.  The reality is except for WWII, which was an exceptional circumstance, debt too income has never been higher. Furthermore, after the war, the US was the only economy that was not destroyed, so we were able to bounce back. Now we compete against the world on a level playing field.

President Obama has increased the debt more than all other presidents combined.  As a continuation of this policy, Hilary Clinton will cause a serious financial situation. If anyone disagrees please comment and speak your objections. I have been a life long student of economics and it is simple mathematics. If you spend more than you have and your fixed payments exceed revenues, this will create financial shocks that have an impact on the real sector. This is a classic Austrian Economics business cycle. However, this time, the end game is bleak.

Inviting more foreign workers –  This equates to decreases wages for Americans. In my workplace, a significant portion of workers are on visa and they do affect wages. Clinton will expand foreign workers in the USA with some lame excuse.

Endless illegal Immigration –  With 94 Million Americans not working and more people living off the system than ever in US history, it will drain America. Why not follow the written laws?

Focused on changing America’s demographics – Immigration focuses on Syrians and Middle Eastern immigrants, countries that do not have a strong democratic tradition.  I believe in democracy and I want to live in a country with others who do also. Heavy restrictions on strong US liberty-loving allies such as Poland.  My family in Poland, to even visit me for a week, in the US have a lot of visa hurdles to jump through. While illegals and Middle Eastern immigrants have an open the gates policy. At the very least more people means more traffic.

Dismantle the Free market – Clinton wants to engineer and control the market, get tough on private initiative and regulate and tax entrepreneurial activity and replace it with government spending.  The factual evidence is her voting record to vote against a decrease in government spending in 2005 and an increase in government spending in 2008. In contrast, I believe anything the government does, free enterprise and people can do more efficiently. Her health care program is just the start of socialism.

Health care  –  Universal health care is a joke. It has become more expensive and did not fix anything. Her healthcare system is good for having you support other people using excess pain killers but does not cover something like ethical stem cells which fix your body. Premiums have increased and more people are living off the system.

Education –  Sees private school vouchers and school choice as a drain on government-run training centers and school.  Evidence of this is her comments in 2015 that vouchers are unconstitutional. Instead of school choice or private and proctorial schools,  Hilary pushes for expanded governmental education. Government training and lofty feel-good words. Clinton does not get that, Private and religious education as well as home-schooling works, the public schools are often a dangerous place to send a child because of the wrong ideas.  Mark Twain said ‘never confuse school with your education’.

Questionable cognitive function –  Although Hilary has a high level of native intelligence, it is my opinion something has changed. I do not write this lightly, but she seems to have clinical deficient associated with trauma or stroke. Observe her carefully and make your own conclusions.  I want someone sharp as our leader.

Bengazi – “what difference does it make” was her reply.  In 2012 Islamic militants overran the American diplomatic compound and Clinton was the secretary of State. I am not going to rehash this, but people questioned her integrity and ability to lead before and during this situation.
ISIS – Does not have a clear policy.

Secretary of State  – What did she accomplish?

Crime and no punishment – Scandals and lies – Think of any TV series drama from ‘Dallas’ to ‘Revenge’ where scandal and lies are the norms and this could be the Clintons. Come on the thing with Hillary’s private email server. How slippery was that? Her husband Bill and Monica Lewinsky. Also consider Mary Mohane, Vincent Foster, C. Victor Raiser, Jerry Parks, Kathy Ferguson, etc., these you can research. I guess before and after her coronation, she is above the law.

Hilary Clinton is an insider – She will offer nothing new to the politics of Capitol Hill.

SmartPower – Failed. Dumbpower – Showing honor and respect to your enemies does not work. Neville Chamberlain before WWII tried this and the result was World War II.

Feminist – In the negative sense of the word.

Bring dishonor to women – If she is the first woman President she could very well have a scandal. Clinton’s signature is doing things that open themselves up to scandal and dishonor. This would not play into the confidence of women in business and politics.

Anti life – Based on her voting record, including US tax dollars, Clinton has the party line to propagate the elimination rather than the defense of the innocent. What was that taxpayer-funded organization selling body parts? Wow, that money would have better been used for something like prenatal nutrition education for example.

Increase the minimum wage – sounds great, but not the solution for a real economy as some jobs are just not worth 15 dollars an hour and someone will have to pay.

Creates division – Too many people despise her. She is not a warm and fuzzy candidate with a middle of the road following. She will polarize the USA. if anything, Obama had a more uniting quality than Hilary Clinton.

NY senator – Promised to create 200,000 jobs in NY but when she left a net of 20,000 jobs decreased

No path to victory with ISIS –  I personally do not like troops on the ground as an American philosophy, which I have seen since I was a child going back to Vietnam and the cost is a high budget, more debt, and loss of Americans. Yet, ISIS needs to be defeated.

Bad Boss –  If you ever had a really bad boss, perhaps who obtain the position by nepotism or just being in the company forever, that will be what it is like rule by Hilary Clinton. The country will have a bad boss.

Donald Trump – Republican

Cons:

Flamboyant big mouth – We know this about him. We know what we get, but he is a leader and will help the US return to real prosperity.

US President Donald John Trump
Issues: 1) Stop the US debt before 24 Trillion (point of no return) 2) Stop the flood of illegals, foreign workers and immigrants from high-risk security areas.

Pros:

Not a Washington insider – America you want someone who is not a career politician.  Trump is your candidate.

Simplify the tax code – This alone is a reason to vote for Trump. If you make 50k or less and are married, you pay no taxes.  If you make up to 100k you pay 10%.  I want that. I could put a new roof on my house with the extra money and a new project every year until my house would be good as new. What would you do?

Not enough Americans are working – Despite his non-traditional nature, his focus will be to defend American jobs and job creation. There are two futures for America. One with a creeping unemployment rate under Hillary Clinton and another with a rising wage rate under Trump.

Negotiate with countries for a US advantage – We know how the US has been sold to China and other countries. Trump’s skills in business will reverse this.

Will balance the budget – and start on the path to pay off the debt. Wow, would you not like your debt including your mortgage paid off? It is a real possibility for the USA if we make the right choices.

Pro-life –  Jump up and down and scream if you want, but the defense of innocent life is a real moral issue. It perplexes me that people who defend animal rights are often the ones that are anti-life when it comes to the innocent. I mean come on in the USA so many people would love to have children and wait years to have a foreign adoption.

Trump is an American leader –  standing up for the American people first, in contrast, Hilary Clinton wants to be like Andre Merkel, a leader that is sensitive to even to the world at the expense of the people who she is leading.

Terrorism – Trump will take a no-nonsense approach and stopping the influx of people that are security threats. Homeland Security is more important than diplomatic parleys (Clinton) or military action aboard.

    I totally agree that Donald Trump as President will not only save the United States from going under and from the Federal Reserve breaking this country is what their ultimate goal is and start the new world order, And are you willing to forgo that? That’s what will happen. I just hope that the American people wake-Up
    and get America back on track and save this country from total disaster.

    This country was never meant to be a Democracy Our forefathers warned us to be a Republic. Democracies always fail. Just look back on history of the Romans, Yes they did a lot of conquering ! But they were so corrupt, If the supposed enemy had something
    that they wanted. They would go to any length to get it.

    Now, if you elect Hillary Clinton, that would be letting a starving wolf in your meat locker , She will absolutely kill this country for sure.

    Thank You-Sincerely- Thomas Dye

      If President Clinton were elected the productive base of the US would be further eroded. In addition, mass waves of immigration would lower wages further, more traffic and more would need government support. The debt would surpass the point of no return and America would be finished. The world would not come to an end but the US would continue to slide. If oil prices ever increased we would have a recession.

      Mind you we are in an economic recovery, however, the real wages, not the nominal, is what is keeping people barely able to keep up with the bills. If you can keep up with the bills, and save for education and retirement, chances are both parents are working and your kids are stuck in daycare somewhere. That is not the American I had when I was growing up. Real Wages have not increased. I would say disposable income has actually gone down since I was a child.

      I guess Democrats do not care that their kid’s future will not be as bright or free. The Democrats I personally know are either super rich, or working for the government directly or indirectly.

        Mark ! Thomas Dye , Here
        thanks for you comments on my post’s

        I think you have it down and you
        see the lite of whats really happening
        that’s a good thing.

        I am 73 years old Ex Navy man I have
        been around the world, I was in the
        navy when President kennedy was killed
        My first thought was why would they want
        to kill President Kennedy, I was 20 years
        old at that time and Dumb as a rock at that
        time.

        Later on I did the research on that
        when I saw the assassination film and his
        head went backwards,””That was a frontal shot””

        Why he got killed was because he threatened
        to remove the federal reserve “Boot Them Out””
        And get back to the gold standard and print our
        own money.

        So ! The bottom line is, When you threaten
        them your signing a death warrant. I done the
        research and supposedly either the Rothchild’s
        Or The Rockefeller’s ordered hit men from Europe
        to do the dirty work.Money Talks “”Every Time !

        So ! Why would you want to believe everything
        our Government say’s ??? To many false flags.
        and Europe’s Elite own us and has owned us
        since 1913 !!!

        Thank You Guy’s Thomas Dye
        Keep up the good work And Get Trump in There.
        However you Gotta do it !

    I would like to remind people to think back when you thought you were doing well
    ‘You thought you were you were doing well, and take another look now.’ And what
    do you think of it now? New Cars’ Now are out of reach because most of the people cannot afford them. The price is way to high. Groceries are way to high n
    right, Ask yourself why this is all happening, It cost’s a small fortune just to
    heat your home now. Am I right? Of course Your utility bills have gone out of site. Keep your eyes open and take a very close look as the prices of everything go’s up.

    You don’t want another full time Politician that’s what got us into this mess. Can’t you see it? What is different now? What is different is most of them are all bought off by the Federal Reserve, Just look back on history, History has a mirror look into it.? You can always tell when a true politician is lying. His mouth is moving. ‘That’s not Funny it’s true’.

    Donald Trump is not a politician he has no axe to grind, Other than that he is probably the very best Negotiator on earth, I’m sure he can get us back on track get jobs that will pay well, Our infrastructure revamped that’s also needed very badly, I believe he will do everything in his power to get us where we need to be ! No Politician in this country will get that done, Show me what they have done produce the evidence?

    I sure hope he gets to be our next president, The thing is ‘He Cannot Be Bought’ he don’t need the money, He see’s we are in trouble and he’s right, no politician is going to get us out of the mess were in. Donald Trump will accomplish everything he needs to do, That’s the type of person he is, And that’s what we need.

    Yes Donald Trump is a little brash when he talks to certain people, That’s his Trump Card , That’s what made him wealthy , He’s just what America Needs.

    Thank You Thomas Dye

    Happy New Year. I’m enjoying the commentary.
    One stand out point I’d like to make.
    Hilary basically represents a bureaucracy class that is endemic on both sides of the aisle. It is a club educated in the entitlement of running government with specialized degrees in governance with little interest in the social benefits of a true running capitalistic system.
    Donald Trump I believe knows what is happening to people at the street level. That is he sees the frustration emanating from those who want and could contribute more to the free market but are stifled and challenged by an ever more complex system of law and rule compliances.

    Thank you
    Greg

    Universal health care is in use in nearly every 1st world nation, successfully. Just because we haven’t figured it out in America doesn’t mean we should just give up & do away with it. We need a single payer system similar to what’s used in the UK. And if correctly used this doesn’t mean it will cost more. It actually saves money in in the long term. Think of all the poor who can not afford preventative medicine that are and have been costing us so much for Medicare and unpaid medical expenses.

    1. Mark Biernat

      I disagree. The people in Europe complain about public health care and go private. I am a dual US EU citizen and I always use private medicine and public medical coverage is poor quality.

      The worst is the government dictates what is covered and leads to the wrong type of treatment. For example ethical stem cells work. Pain meds get you addicted. The former is not covered but the latter is. Government health care covers a backward type of medicine. It actually hurts people in many ways. If you are talking about a broken leg, OK. But if you are talking about most procedures and drugs, government covers old-fashion way of doing things.

      Better is give people the freedom to choose they way they spend their own hard earned money. If you are worried about the poor you have free clinics and a two tiered cost system rather than socializes the whole country.
