The Blue Tsunami May Backfire

In spite of the seeming victory being given to Biden ( on account of serious , 2000-year type questions about vote increases ) , there seems to be not only a lot of support in the election for Trump , but a growing backlash against what seems to have been an assumed “ blue tsunami ” as Chron reports .
The election night party Joe Biden planned in Delaware was built for a blue tsunami , with front-row seats for VIPs and a giant flag hung between two cranes , as his campaign advisers ultimately could not resist planning as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and commanding defeat of President Donald Trump might be right .
Instead , Democrats endured the second polling shock in four years , with election returns frequently coming in more favorable to Trump than in public surveys , in some cases outside the margin of error .
The Biden campaign appeared to place big bets late in the campaign in the hopes that the public polling would be right , expanding its television buy to states Trump would win easily .
In the final week , Biden made appearances in Ohio , where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % of votes counted , and Iowa , where he lost by eight points with 92 % of votes counted .
“ We were operating in a reality that wasn ’ t reality , and we were operating off numbers that just were clearly not reflecting what turnout would be , ” said one Democratic consultant , who spoke on the condition of anonymity to speak frankly .
The Biden campaign officials have maintained that their internal polling proved more accurate than the public numbers .
Although the degree of polling misses is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ count mail-in ballots , a review of polling in 10 key states with more than 85 percent of the vote counted finds that public polls underestimated Trump ’ s vote margin by about 4.5 percentage points on average , similar to the size of errors in key states four years ago .

shoebat--2020-11-08--The 2020 Election, Or How The Loser Is The Winner

Since this election recount fiasco began , I have promised that I would deliver a fuller analysis once the vote count was for the most part settled .
The AP announcement of Biden winning the election and the report by the mainstream press now affords the best time to do this .
Biden won the election- but the Republicans also won , because as I kept saying over and over and without any bias on party lines : THE PARTY WHO WINS LONG-TERM IN THIS ELECTION IS THE ONE WHO LOSES .
I can not emphasize this statement enough , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because it is the reality .
Leading up to Trump ’ s 2016 election , I said that if Trump was elected- and he was -that given the circumstances in which he came into politics and the presidency , he was given the chance of history to do something very great , and if he only did a fraction of what he said he would do , it would be tremendous .
With the exception of the Supreme Court , Trump overall has been a failure as he flat-out refused to deliver on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that , I will add that this election the Democrats were afforded the same chance of history but in a different way- that by losing , they would be able to write themselves into history long-term .
The logic behind this is simple- given his patterns , a Trump victory would not just likely mean four years of a lame-duck president , but four years for the Democrats to solidify their base , purge their party of the Silent Generation and Boomer leadership , and remake their image in the face of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and in doing so , to emerge as a serious political force that could easily last for over a decade .
Not just that , but as I have noted , the Democrats had the opportunity to continue to force the Republican party into an image that could have put them on the way to political irrelevancy and eventually , the way of the Whig Party from the 19th century .
But that is not what happened .
Instead , the Democrats persisted in “ never Trumping ” and worked overtime- even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ visible patterns in voter tallies and clearly documented overregistration of voters ( more votes than actual registered voters ) as well as the documented use of dead people to cast ballots -to win the election .
I don ’ t care what party you are- this election was no different than the Bush-Gore election of 2000 , where similar fraud took place in counties throughout Florida , except this happened across multiple states .
It makes what happened in 2000 look small by comparison .
It is as wrong now as it was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at all costs comes with a price , and that is , that the Democrat party threw away a golden opportunity to remake herself for the long term and instead pass it to the Republicans , who can do the exact same thing the Democrats could have done , which likely would involve : -Shedding the Trump cult of personality -Flushing out , adding , or transitioning leadership to the upcoming generations -Capitalizing on the growth of the Hispanic and Black blocs into the Republican party The last one is critical .
As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shift among the Hispanic and Black blocs toward the conservative positions , especially among the lower working classes , just as how the white working classes have been in the Republican party .
This is a serious long-term threat to the Democrat party , since the Democrats historically are favored 70/30 and 95/5 by the Hispanic and Black blocs in that respective order .
The fact that exit polls suggest Hispanic support may be about 60/40 and Black 87/13 just for the last election is a huge change .
Indeed , the Candace @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a clear effect on these historically reliable Democrat blocs .
It can not be said enough that the Democrats , out of what seems to be blinding hatred over one particular politician , chose short-term gains over the long-term not just preservation of power , but destruction of their political enemy .
But it gets worse for the Democrats .
One of the points that I have constantly discussed on Shoebat.com is the situation of the economy .
I have said repeatedly that the financial and economic problems in the nation have never @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Reserve Bank policy of printing money eventually will lead to a currency crisis .
As I explained in a previous article , the US has consistently chosen policies that will bring about this result .
These policies have been consistently supported by both political parties , and thus it is grossly inaccurate to say that one party can take more or less blame , as the matter pertains to the continuity of government .
At some point , the US is going to be forced to reckon with her debts , and in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was the former Federal Reserve Bank Chairman , ‘ the US can pay any debt because she can print the money.
’ Greenspan is correct- the US will never default .
Rather , she will hyperinflate her currency instead , which will destroy wealth and cause massive anger .
This is where things become fun , because the process has already began with the TARP bailouts of 2007 , and greatly increased with the COVID-19 stimulus checks that were issued under Trump , for which now people are clamoring for another stimulus check @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fundamental job losses and economic problems taking place are not going away as they are tied to the debt issues , and because of this it will only force the need for more checks to offset the negative ongoing ( and fundamentally unresolvable barring a complete disowning of the Federal debt ) effects .
What Trump started is like a snowball effect , and under Biden , he will likely have to issue another check , and then most likely more checks , and in doing this the problems that it would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on its own along with the economy due to devaluation .
Since Biden is in office , he would find himself in the same position that Herbert Hoover did- while Hoover did not create the Great Depression , he was blamed for it and with that , the whole Republican party that propelled the Democrats to two decades of victory .
It is true that Trump signed the first COVID checks , but this does not matter any more .
If Trump was still in office , he likely would have issued another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the same scenario , but he gets to avoid this , which now falls on Biden .
But it gets worse for the Democrats .
I noted the changing demographics of the political landscape , and the most significant of this being the shift of the Hispanic and Black blocs , especially working classes , into the Republican party alongside the Whites .
This not only provides new and potentially long-term membership to the party ( especially in the case of the Hispanics , since they are the only bloc that has a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of all the blocs ) , but helps the Republicans shed the “ elitist ” image they have been cast under and instead continue to build on the populism that emerged in 2014 .
Likewise , considering how it was Democrat-inclined activists who have been leading this past year nationwide violent protests and rioting to cries of ‘ racism ’ in favor of drug-addled porn actor felons who abduct and pistol-whip pregnant women ( George Floyd ) or drunkards who attack police officers , steal their weapons , and they try to attack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brooks ) while eight-year-olds who are shot by gang-bangers are completely ignored ( Secoriea Turner ) , it forces many people of good will and political inclinations in those blocs to ask themselves- why do they want to associate with a party that promotes the worst behavior of their own blocs ?
Fuel is only added to the fire as it has come out- rather obviously -that it was many times white and Jewish activists in “ Black Lives Matter ” and other groups who were responsible for too many of the violent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ argument of Republican racism is now at a much more pronounced risk of losing the potency it once had .
Instead of race , the lines could split along those of class- with the Republicans shedding their image of being the party of the “ elite ” and becoming the party of the populist , working class , nationalist types , while the Democrats being branded as a multi-ethnic coalition of self-important ‘ elitists ’ disconnected from the common man .
This is painfully obvious with Biden ’ s history behind the infamous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ locking up mostly poor black and hispanic men during her legal career .
The present anger felt among many people on the right- that the political left stole the 2020 election by openly visible patterns of fraud -justifies the idea that political violence is OK. After all , if the left can cheat , burn , loot , and essentially receive plaudits from the media and major businesses for it , why not the right ?
We are already beginning to see this with cases of armed Republican party members marching to polling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mass Republican protests in various states over the election results .
If one adds race it , we have the chance of not interracial violence , but intra-racial violence , where one might see the growing Black conservatives against Black liberals , or the growing Hispanic conservatives against Hispanic liberals , and with that standing alongside white conservatives against white liberals .
The talk coming from people about Biden uniting the country , while a nice idea , is very unlikely to happen in a practical sense .
If anything , Biden is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because while many people did not like Trump , there is no question about him honestly winning the 2016 election , while the 2020 one , after four years of rancorous political discussion , has far too many serious questions of fraud associated with it .
Plus , there is the Trump factor- people are sick of him because he is a bad image .
I say this not to attack Trump or to give him praise , but as a genuine observation .
Ask yourself , why did so many in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump amid this vote recount ?
Why did Rupert Murdoch supposedly turn against Trump , and FOX News declare Arizona to go for Biden before even CNN said anything ?
Why has in spite of screaming from Trump ’ s family , there been so much general silence from the party ?
Is it because the Republican party just are ‘ traitors ’ to ‘ our president ’ , or perhaps that there is something bigger at play ?
Trump has been successful at cultivating a cult of personality , but politics and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
As I have noted , Trump overall has done very little except for make people angry and give the Republican party a bad taste in the mouth of the public .
Given the move towards nationalism and populism happening in the US and around the world on the political right , and the growing distrust for all mainstream media- including traditional conservative media such as Fox News -it should not be considered impossible that Trump is being betrayed , but rather , because he isn ’ t benefitting the party , he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the long-term view , exploiting essentially what is a Democrat obsession with the man for the long-term benefit of the party and to the long-term likely detriment of the Democrats .
For a while , I talked about the likelihood of a 2024 Democrat landslide victory .
This WOULD have been true assuming a Trump victory , which as the voting patterns demonstrate , under natural conditions would have happened , and given the current state of the nation economically speaking as above ( for the fundamental structural issues remain constant no matter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that a natural Democrat revival was inevitable .
However , what I find most amazing , is that the Democrats have effectively thrown away ( assuming no Supreme Court intervention in favor of Trump ) a historically unprecedented chance to benefit themselves in favor of temporarily beating one individual by means of not just questionable practices , but an old man with clear signs of dementia and Parkinson ’ s disease , not to mention his many questionable statements and action that are completely laughable or just disturbing , let alone his running @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meme .
The Democrats won a battle- the election of 2020 -but there is a far greater chance they lost a larger war , instead giving power not just to Republicans , but to men such as Steve Bannon to build up a new empire that will be used to continue the effects of the new populism to deadly ends on a global scale .
The Democrats had a chance to take the goose that lays the golden eggs .
However , it seems they focused instead on taking the eggs away from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them to “ their guy ” ( Biden ) , while the party as a whole and those in the party with much more sinister long-term intentions ( such as Bannon ) took the actual goose , a much wiser and long-term strategic overall move .
This was not a Republican loss .
It was a tactical retreat , and while many Democrats celebrate , they may want to be very careful , for while they do have the possibility to avoid it if they are very careful , there are strong indications @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ambushed by circumstances they can not control or manage .

AP Officially Declares Biden Victory

Based on the latest counts , the AP and major news media outlets declare a Biden victory .
Democrat Joe Biden defeated President Donald Trump to become the 46th president of the United States on Saturday , positioning himself to lead a nation gripped by the historic pandemic and a confluence of economic and social turmoil .
His victory came after more than three days of uncertainty as election officials sorted through a surge of mail-in votes that delayed the processing of some ballots .
Biden crossed 270 Electoral College votes with a win in Pennsylvania .
Biden , 77 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ distinctive political ideology than on galvanizing a broad coalition of voters around the notion that Trump posed an existential threat to American democracy .
The strategy proved effective , resulting in pivotal victories in Michigan and Wisconsin as well as Pennsylvania , onetime Democratic bastions that had flipped to Trump in 2016 .
Biden was on track to win the national popular vote by more than 4 million , a margin that could grow as ballots continue to be counted .

Based on the latest counts, the AP and major news media outlets declare a Biden victory.
Democrat Joe Biden defeated President Donald Trump to become the 46th president of the United States on Saturday, positioning himself to lead a nation gripped by the historic pandemic and a confluence of economic and social turmoil. His victory came after more than three days of uncertainty as election officials sorted through a surge of mail-in votes that delayed the processing of some ballots. Biden crossed 270 Electoral College votes with a win in Pennsylvania. Biden, 77, staked his candidacy less on any distinctive political ideology than on galvanizing a broad coalition of voters around the notion that Trump posed an existential threat to American democracy. The strategy proved effective, resulting in pivotal victories in Michigan and Wisconsin as well as Pennsylvania, onetime Democratic bastions that had flipped to Trump in 2016. Biden was on track to win the national popular vote by more than 4 million, a margin that could grow as ballots continue to be counted. (source)
Now I will say again what I have said before, assuming Trump does not get the courts involved to his favor, and as I have noted, said without a personal bias to either political party:
THIS IS NOT A DEMOCRAT VICTORY. THIS IS A LONG-TERM REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
I will explain this more in a future article. However, I cannot say this enough. The Republicans did NOT lose anything. In fact, it is far more arguable to say that they won, and assuming that their cards are played well, any gains made under Biden may become serious long-term liabilities.

shoebat--2020-11-08--Biden Now Has To Look Down The Abyss Of The Economic State Of The Country

I said and will keep saying that based on the conditions of the economy , the loser of this election was actually the long-term winner , as it enables the other party to “ pin the tail ” on the “ winner ” , who will be blamed for the upcoming structural problems in the nation .
Biden won the election , but now he has to deal with the problems- not caused by Trump , Obama , Bush II , Clinton , Bush I , Reagan , Carter , Nixon , or others alone -but from decades of bad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ones that are coming to fruition very fast .
The biggest one is the economy at which the heart is the unsolvable issue of the debt , either by default or by hyperinflation , both which have no peaceful resolutions .
Now as Bloomberg notes and is reported by Yahoo !

Joe Biden has been elected to be the next President of the United States .
Now he ’ ll have to get creative .
When the President-elect takes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country ’ s two most acute challenges : an ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the economic damage it ’ s wrought .
But he ’ ll have an uphill battle to enact the sort of bold policy agenda that many supporters were hoping for .
Barring a January surprise in Georgia ’ s runoff election , Republicans are likely to retain control of the Senate , denying Biden the unified control of government that his predecessors enjoyed when they came into office .
With traditional relief and stimulus measures limited by opposition party intransigence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pass policies designed to resuscitate the stricken service sector directly .
The U.S. economy has bounced rapidly back since April , but only partially .
Employment has only recovered about halfway to where it was before Covid-19 struck , giving it the shape of a reverse square-root sign : Lower-wage employees , who tend to work at the local services businesses most deeply impacted by the virus , are suffering more .
The economy is being afflicted by two simultaneous maladies .
The first is continued fear of the virus , now in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Fear , more than lockdowns , has kept Americans shut inside their homes , reluctant to take the risk of going out to shop or eat .

But even when the virus is gone , the economy is likely to remain depressed for awhile , as the overhang of unemployment works its way out of the system .
Bold relief measures , of the type that sustained Americans through the pandemic ’ s dark early days , probably won ’ t be forthcoming given the GOP Senate ’ s inevitable turn towards austerity .
The same is true of traditional fiscal stimulus , such as a burst of infrastructure spending , that might help boost demand back to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a chance for more targeted measures to help the sectors of the economy that Covid-19 has hurt the most — local services .

What They’re Not Telling You About Kamala Harris: Her Mother Belonged To A Left-wing Cult That Admired The Mass Murdering Communist Dictator, Mao Zedong, Who Butchered 45 Million People

With Kamala Harris being declared as the next vice-president of the United States , its time to look at her Left-wing roots .
What few have pointed out is that Kamala ’ s mother , Shyamala Gopalan , was a member of a radical-Left wing group in California ’ s Bay Area , which admired the Communist mass murderer , Mao Zedong , who butchered millions .
According to the Washington Post , Shyamala and her husband , Donald Harris , were part of “ a small group of students who met every Sunday to discuss the books of black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , from the anti-apartheid Black Consciousness Movement in South Africa to liberation movements in Latin America to the black separatist preaching of Malcolm X in the U.S. ” The Washington Post describes the meetings as such : Kamala Harris ’ s mother supported both the Afro-centric paramilitary organization , the Black Panthers , and the mass murderer of China , Mao Zedong .
Leftists will bash Hitler all day , but they are silent about the prevalent Left-wing support for Mao , as if his butchering of 45 million people is irrelevant and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with admiration as though he is some sort of philosopher .

The Left in the United States was writing about how Trump ’ s father was a racist .
But we should have a focus on how Kamala Harris ’ s mother belonged to a Left-wing fanatical group that praised a mass murdering Communist dictator who butchered tens of millions of people .
That Harris ’ s mother admired the mass murderer Mao Zedong is not surprising , given @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the unborn and wants to make sure that all states have to get permission from her Department of Justice before enacting any sort of legislation that would limit access to abortion ( which is really just infanticide ) .

We must walk the narrow path and not stray to the left nor the right

By Theodore Shoebat
With Kamala Harris being declared as the next vice-president of the United States, its time to look at her Left-wing roots. What few have pointed out is that Kamala’s mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was a member of a radical-Left wing group in California’s Bay Area, which admired the Communist mass murderer, Mao Zedong, who butchered millions. According to the Washington Post, Shyamala and her husband, Donald Harris, were part of “a small group of students who met every Sunday to discuss the books of black authors and grassroots activity around the world, from the anti-apartheid Black Consciousness Movement in South Africa to liberation movements in Latin America to the black separatist preaching of Malcolm X in the U.S.” The Washington Post describes the meetings as such:
“the weekly gathering was one in which figures such as Mao Zedong and Fidel Castro were admired, and would later provide some inspiration to the founders of the Black Panther Party. Gopalan was the only one in the group who wasn’t black, but she immersed herself in the issues, Labrie says. She and Harris wowed him with their intellect.”
Kamala Harris’s mother supported both the Afro-centric paramilitary organization, the Black Panthers, and the mass murderer of China, Mao Zedong. Leftists will bash Hitler all day, but they are silent about the prevalent Left-wing support for Mao, as if his butchering of 45 million people is irrelevant and his name can somehow be mentioned nonchalantly with admiration as though he is some sort of philosopher. According to Ilya Somin:
But both Hitler and Stalin were outdone by Mao Zedong. From 1958 to 1962, his Great Leap Forward policy led to the deaths of up to 45 million people – easily making it the biggest episode of mass murder ever recorded.
Historian Frank Dikotter describes the utter horror of Mao’s utopian hell:
between two and three million victims were tortured to death or summarily killed, often for the slightest infraction. When a boy stole a handful of grain in a Hunan village, local boss Xiong Dechang forced his father to bury him alive. The father died of grief a few days later. The case of Wang Ziyou was reported to the central leadership: one of his ears was chopped off, his legs were tied with iron wire, a ten kilogram stone was dropped on his back and then he was branded with a sizzling tool – punishment for digging up a potato.
The Left in the United States was writing about how Trump’s father was a racist. But we should have a focus on how Kamala Harris’s mother belonged to a Left-wing fanatical group that praised a mass murdering Communist dictator who butchered tens of millions of people. That Harris’s mother admired the mass murderer Mao Zedong is not surprising, given how her daughter is supporting the murder of the unborn and wants to make sure that all states have to get permission from her Department of Justice before enacting any sort of legislation that would limit access to abortion (which is really just infanticide). As we read on the “Reproductive Rights Act” that Kamala wants passed:
Harris will require, for the first time, that states and localities with a history of violating Roe v. Wade obtain approval from her Department of Justice before any abortion law or practice can take effect. … Under the plan, states and localities will be subject to the preclearance requirement if they have a pattern of violating Roe v. Wade in the preceding 25 years. For example, violations will include settlements or final findings by a court that a law or practice runs afoul of Roe, such as rulings in South Carolina, Iowa, and Georgia.
That means that if Kamala gets her way, no state would be able to set impediments on access to infanticide, thus shattering any attempts to protect the rights of the unborn. With such an evil measure, I cannot help but remember the words of King Solomon when he wrote on “those parents sacrificing with their own hands helpless souls” (Wisdom 12:6). Harris’ mother admired a mass murderer, and so she wishes to prevent laws against the murder of the most innocent.
Biden himself quoted Mao when he was asked about why he picked Kamala to be his VP. He was asked by ABC News’s Robin Roberts whether he felt “pressure to select a black woman,” to which Biden responded by saying:
“51 percent of the people in this country are women … As that old expression goes, ‘women hold up half the sky.’”
That phrase, “women hold up half the sky” comes directly from Mao himself. Biden used this saying again in July during a digital fundraiser with former Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett. “We’ve got to get real economic relief into women’s hands now,” Biden said before stating Mao’s quote. It is no wonder why Anita Dunn, who was a senior adviser to Biden’s campaign, is an admirer of Mao and called him one of her “favorite political philosophers” during an address to graduating high schoolers in 2009. “Mao Zedong said, ‘You fight your war and I’ll fight mine,’” she said at the time. “Think about that for a second. You don’t have to accept the definition of how to do things, and you don’t have to follow other people’s choices and paths. You fight your own war, you lay out your own path.”
If we have to experience 4 years of Biden and Harris, we will witness the viciousness of the Left; but at the same time, we must also remember the struggle that we are seeing: it is a struggle between two political forces — the Left and the Right — both of which will take us to the abyss, with one leading us to the fanatical ideology of infanticide and environmentalism, and the other leading us to a vicious nationalism that will embrace eugenics and tribalism.

The United Arab Emirates has ended lenient punishments for so-called “honour” killings, lifted a ban on unmarried couples living together and decriminalised alcohol, in reforms to personal laws.

Italy Gives Legal Protections To Sodom

According to Reuters , Italy has now given legal protection to sodomite behavior .
Italy ’ s lower house of parliament on Wednesday passed an anti-discrimination bill that makes violence against women and LGBT+ people a hate crime , with those found guilty of such attacks risking longer prison terms .
The bill was approved by 265 votes to 193 in the 630-member chamber and now needs a final green light from the upper house Senate , where it has the support of the ruling coalition parties , before becoming law .
It modifies an existing law punishing offences based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with up to four years in jail .
“ It is a big step forward against discrimination , hatred and violence , ” Alessandro Zan , the openly gay lawmaker who promoted the law , wrote on Twitter .

shoebat--2020-11-09--Fine Print: Trump ‘Election Defense Fund’ Also May Be Used To Pay Down Campaign Debts

One of the interesting points uncovered by the Trump tax returns is that President Trump , in spite of his claimed wealth and appearance of wealth , is heavily indebtted , and has tens to hundreds of millions in loans which he is personally liable for .

Because of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Trump ’ s “ Election Defense Fund ” , as USA Today reports , has “ fine print ” language written into it that monies donated could be used to pay down his campaign debts .
In the Trump campaign ’ s latest push to raise money for its “ election defense ” fund , at least half of any donation could go toward paying down debt for the president ’ s campaign , according to the fine print .
The Trump campaign has mounted legal challenges in several battleground states that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ votes continue to be tallied in the tightly contested presidential race , including Michigan , Pennsylvania and Georgia .
Over the last four days , the Trump campaign as well as the Republican National Committee have sent a flurry of text messages and emails urging supporters to contribute to the president ’ s court challenges .
“ President Trump is FIGHTING BACK to defend the integrity of this Election , but he can ’ t do it alone , ” one email reads .
“ He needs YOU to step up and join @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Defense Fund.
” But a disclaimer on the website states that 50 % of any donation will go toward the campaign ’ s general election debt retirement and the other half toward the campaign ’ s recount account , the Wall Street Journal first reported .
A separate fundraising effort by the “ Trump Make America Great Again Committee ” states that 60 % of contributions will go toward campaign debt while 40 % goes to the RNC .
Joe Biden ’ s campaign has also launched a fundraising effort in anticipation of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fine print does not include any disclaimer about retiring campaign debt , it does indicate that a portion of the donation would go toward the Democratic National Committee and the remainder would benefit the former vice president ’ s recount account .

This did not so much affect the election for or against him, but rather is an insight into the state of the man’s personal life and the image of his business empire as it seems it could crash down around him amid his tax and debt obligations.

A separate fundraising effort by the “Trump Make America Great Again Committee” states that 60% of contributions will go toward campaign debt while 40% goes to the RNC.

This action suggests that Trump really is in a form of financial trouble, and that he is trying to offload what debts he can right now before his personal situation becomes even worse.
What happens after Trump leaves office is going to be a very interesting thing to watch- assuming the current conditions. Yes, it is possible there will be a serious legal challenge, but so far, I have yet to see any real ones be accepted. Instead, there is a lot of anger on the right, which is far more effectively consolidating support on the right base and is useful for rebuilding, rebranding, and reviving in the exact same chance that Democrats were afforded should they have lost (and likely under natural circumstances would have) and would have been able to come back with a vicious force in 2024 to write a new chapter in history for themselves.
It’s not “Trump” that is the real concern. It is how this election is producing the conditions for a renewed nationalism and with that, the emergence of a new right wing more akin to a Bannonesque view of politics than the traditional Boomer conservatism.

Trade wars tend to precede more violent conflicts. Currently, the US and Europe have been locked in a series of trade battles, the largest being the Boeing-Airbus dispute that was ruled in favor of Airbus and with that opening the way for billions in tariffs on imported goods. According to a report from CNBC, Amazon is now being pursued by the EU for violation of antitrust regulations.
The European Commission said Tuesday that Amazon breached European antitrust rules by using independent sellers’ data for its own benefit.
It has also announced a second formal investigation into the company’s e-commerce processes.
In a statement, the Commission said Amazon was using the data of third-party sellers – such as order numbers, revenues and number of visitors – to inform its strategic business decisions, like reducing the price of products.
The issue arises because of Amazon’s dual role which sees it both selling products itself, and acting as a platform for independent – sometimes rival – sellers.
“Data on the activity of third-party sellers should not be used to the benefit of Amazon when it acts as a competitor to these sellers,” Margrethe Vestager, the EU’s competition chief, said in the statement.
The decision comes after the Commission, which is the executive arm of the European Union, launched a probe into the online retailer in July 2019 on the back of concerns over anti-competitive behavior.
Amazon said it disagreed with the Commission’s assertions and “will continue to make every effort to ensure it has an accurate understanding of the facts.” It said that it represents less than 1% of the global retail market.
“No company cares more about small businesses or has done more to support them over the past two decades than Amazon,” the e-commerce giant said.
The Commission’s second antitrust investigation will look at how the company choses which sellers offer products via Amazon Prime, its paid-for premium service.
