106 Day Iran War So Called Agreement No Improvement Over Obama 2015 Iran Deal!

Ronald 72 Comments

Donald Trump has “Obama Derangement Syndrome”, unwilling to give former President Barack Obama any credit or respect in any way.

Clearly, Trump is extremely jealous of Obama’s intellectual brilliance, widespread popularity, and his charisma and accomplishments, knowing he can never match him in any way.

And being that Trump is a white supremacist and racist just makes it more infuriating, as Trump has now, in desperation, seemingly come to an an agreement after 15 weeks of war, massive spending, high inflation, and the loss of 14 servicemen and women, that brings America back to the original Obama Iran Deal, negotiated with five other nations in 2015.

Iran and the nuclear weapons issue is not resolved, with the only “accomplishment” being the killing of much of the Iranian government leadership, but with replacement by others who have no desire to cave in to the US or Israel.

And Israel is alienated, and has no plan to accept the so called agreement, which supposedly will open up the Strait of Hormuz, but little else.

Donald Trump’s foreign “adventure” has been an unmitigated disaster, but he will try to convince Americans otherwise, and hope that his party continues to control both houses of Congress.

His own party is calling for details on the proposed agreement with Iran, and for the Congress to have a role in its acceptance, something Trump is clearly unwilling to promote.

The idea that Iran may benefit financially in the proposed agreement will be a center of controversy by many members of Trump’s party, as well as the opposition Democrats.

If the Democrats gain control, hell will be paid by Trump and his corrupt Cabinet and other Republican sycophants.

The biggest danger is Trump, in desperation, following through on the threat of the suspension of the Writ of Habeus Corpus, and invocation of the Insurrection Act, and interference in the Midterm Elections of 2026.

America is in a dire situation as we near the elections, and the feared destruction of American Democracy and the Rule Of Law, which must be resisted in every way possible!

In Many Ways, Trump’s “Lame Duck” Presidency Has Arrived!

Ronald 16 Comments

Donald Trump’s Presidency is clearly in “free fall”, with his unstable behavior and his inability to realize how he has alienated many of his own 2024 supporters, leading to dramatic collapses in public opinion ratings, due to his Iran War and hyperinflation occurring.

So it can be said that, in many ways, he has entered his “lame duck” period as he reaches the age of 80 on Sunday.

Trump has lost support from his own party, after helping to defeat Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy, Texas Senator John Cornyn, Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie, and South Carolina Congresswoman Nancy Mace in primaries.

Trump has lost support on the outrageous “anti weaponization” fund for January 6 Insurrectionists; the proposed White House Ballroom; the proposed Freedom 250 concert series; Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center; the proposed 250 foot Triumphal Arch; and clearcut opposition growing toward Todd Blanche being nominated to be Attorney General, among many other issues.

Three Months Of Iran War, And Nothing Has Been Achieved!

Ronald 22 Comments

It is now three months since the US and Israel began a war against Iran, on February 28, 2026.

Nothing positive has been achieved, and much that is negative has occurred, including:

Massive inflation in the US and worldwide
The Blocking of the Strait of Hormuz
The loss of many lives in the Middle East
The stiffening of the new leadership in Iran
The undermining of the Republican Party in the upcoming Midterm Elections of 2026
The growing incoherence and instability of Donald Trump

While the leadership of Iran was changed, there is no indication that any progress has been made to prevent development of nuclear weapons, and to stop Iranian uranium enrichment.

The budgetary cost of the war has escalated, with the minimum acknowledged as $29 Billion, but much more as this indecisive situation, with no clear resolution, continues.

Once again, sadly, the United States has been dragged into a long range quagmire, that will be very costly, and add massively to the national debt.

Donald Trump Summit In China At Weak Point Of His Presidency: Danger To Taiwan!

Ronald 127 Comments

Donald Trump just completed the much heralded summit in China with Xi Jinping, and no major breakthroughs on the US-China relationship seem evident.

Trump went to China at a low point, with the war against Iran having major opposition at home and among NATO allies; with the highest inflation in the past few years; with clear differences with China over Taiwan, and the fear that Trump will abandon Taiwan, much as he has done with Ukraine; and with Trump’s own mental and physical state in rapid decline.

Summits are supposed to lead to major accomplishments, but this particular summit seems like a dud, with the only “accomplishment” being trade deals that seem to have been achieved for many of the sixteen “oligarchs” who went with Trump to China.

Trump Tariffs Leading America Toward Recession And Inflation: Stagflation!

Ronald 7 Comments

Today, April 2, is the day that Donald Trump will reveal the extent of his Tariff “Wars” against the world, including not only China, Mexico, and Canada, but also our NATO allies and nations we are allied with in Asia, as well.

An economic disaster is ahead, as economists have warned against such lunatic action as putting tariffs on all kinds of economic activities.

History tells us what happened when Herbert Hoover imposed tariffs in 1930, despite admonitions by hundreds of economists, signing the Smoot-Hawley Tariff, which helped to make for the horrors of the Great Depression of the 1930s.

Economists now predict that America will witness a severe recession, as more Americans lose their jobs, not only federal workers who are being fired enmasse, but also ordinary Americans who will suffer from lower economic activity, causing bankrupties of businesses and massive layoffs in many industries, as sales decline rapidly.

But also, it is predicted there will be high inflation, with the excessive increase in costs of all kinds of goods as other nations raise tariffs in reaction to our raising of tariffs.

So we are likely to have the worst possible combination of high unemployment and inflation, which is what is called “stagflation”.

This is what Donald Trump is bringing us, when he promised lower prices on “Day One”, and the stock market just had its worst quarter since the height of the COVID 19 Pandemic in 2022!

With his Rose Garden speech just concluded, Trump is causing a major decline in the stock market, which will be fully revealed on Friday!
