The Next Two Years

[thetragichippy]

Predictions:

I think Vance will not be running due to new born on the way, plus time is on his side. He's young and can wait until his kids are a little older. Plus, with Trump almost being the 5th US President assassinated, I don't blame him for wanting to see his kids grow up. 

Republicans/DOJ: 

Republicans could unite and get some things done before January, but I really doubt they do. The Farm Bill HR 7567 would be a good one to pass, but we will see. I don't see Congress getting anything done. 

I think the two significant investigations that will come to resolution: Comey will be indicted and Omar will be civilly proven to not be here legally and will be removed from Congress. The Omar investigation started under Obama, so hard to blame this one of Trump.  

Trump:

Trump is going to be Trump, but one thing I think he truly cares about is his legacy. I think his goals will be to end the Iran war favorable to them not getting a nuke and will negotiate the ending of Ukraine war before he leaves office. 

Democrats:

They won in the fashion they did because of the cost of groceries, fuel and the too aggressive ICE deportations.  I honestly don't think a significant number of people would care about the Iran war if it didn't hit them in the pocketbook. 

Democrats should work on bills that will help lower the price on fuel and groceries, and most importantly get interest rates down so housing market gets hot. There are lots of people (me) waiting for rates before they upgrade. .....If they did that and put us in a good spot before 2028, they could possibly get the WH in 2028.

What I think is going to happen in a attempted Hegseth impeachment, a lot of noise around a Trump impeachment, and investigation payback.......I think they are going to try and take out Trump and everyone close to him (like 2016) under the cover of oversight...... Democrats will love it, Republicans and Independents will see it for what it is, and we will have a Republican President in 2028.

Thoughts?

Vance won’t run because he knows he’s a weasel and aligned himself too closely with MAGA.

Desantis is already working the PR circuit. He’d be decent. Rubio too, but wouldn’t be surprised if he took a break after this circus administration.

Trump seemingly seems eager to work with democrats (how convenient), but whatever I’ll take it. 

MAGA is officially DEAD.  If democrats drop the 10 genders nonsense then they should keep power in 2028.

I really like hinojosa’s stances on public education reform. Supposedly, she has some republicans on her steering committee. The democrat mandate is “anti trump”, not open borders, but we’ll see

I see two years of circus battles. No way to exit the Iran war with our heads held high, no matter the Trump narrative. He will continue to make billions. Cost of living will not make  a meaningful improvement. Hegseth gone, maybe soon. Vance is Trump’s collateral damage. Rubio has a shot at the nomination, but the blue wave will still have momentum. ICE tactics will either demise or keep fueling the fire. Texas education reform sounds good, but will we maintain the current quality and progress? Islamic agenda will continue to make moderate downplayed progress. Jesus Christ will still be waiting on his people to repent and turn from their wicked ways so he can heal our land. He still rules and reins.

The one consistent thing Trump has talked about is his legacy.  He didn't care that he would loose control of the house over Iran. He claims it was the right thing to do. He knew if he lost control The Democrats would likely impeach him.  He has a 2 month window to get all his military stuff done.  He moved Susie Wiles to political operations and put Stephen Miller as Chief of Staff.....The Democrats are going to flip over that......I think he is going to try and finish what he started. I'm sure he has told everyone they will all get a pardon, so they will not be attacked after 2028. The next couple years will be one for the History books for sure.

You've been wrong a lot lately.  Let's wait and see.  Your last odds fell waaaay short.🌊🌊🌊

 

YOU: I don't believe it is as tight as they claim.  The polls since 1994 have GOP under performing by an average if 4 points. That is not speculation but facts, 

I'm going to Predict 52% Paxton and 47% Talarico

YOU:

What change? Republicans will keep Senate, so no stupid impeachments will get past the Senate….if Republicans loose the house, it won’t be enough to matter….now, lets say I’m wrong and Dems get enough votes for house and senate, it still won’t be by enough margin to get an impeachment, and any bills passed could be vetoed by the President. 
 

I don’t see change until 2028….

Yup, I was wrong - I have no issues admitting I was wrong.

What it looks like I’m going to be right about is Hegseth being impeached, which the entire premise is ridiculous. A few Democrats think following the commander and Chiefs direct orders is an impeachable offense….lol

Now, maybe after the failed attempt they will go after Trump and impeach him.  It is a great look to do exactly what you accuse Trump of doing

Queen Hinojosa to freeze electricity costs. “So shall it be written, so shall it be done”. Lmao. Should instigate some “No Queens” protests. Glad I took the plunge for a Generac. It will get me through those rolling blackouts. What’s the definition of insanity?….doing the same thing and expecting a different result? Maybe she should look to NJ and see how this same policy fared.

She doesn’t have the power to set electrical prices. Where are the “No Queens” protests?

True

A reminder of what Khrushchev said more than 60 years ago...."Your children's children will live under communism. You Americans are so gullible. No, you won't accept communism outright; but, we will keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you will finally wake up and find you already have Communism. We will not have to fight you. We will so weaken your economy, until you will fall like overripe fruit into our hands. The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not" It was September 29, 1959, when Nikita Khrushchev delivered his prediction for America at the United Nations. Remember the television coverage of him banging his shoe on the podium? At that time, just the word "communism" was feared throughout our nation. Remember this. Socialism leads to Communism How do you create a Socialist State? There are eight levels of control:
1) Healthcare - Control healthcare and you control the people
2) Poverty - Increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them.
3) Debt - Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.
4) Gun Control - Remove the ability to defend themselves from the government . That way you are able to create a police state.
5) Welfare - Take control of every aspect (food, housing, income) of their lives because that will make them fully dependent on the government.
6) Education - Take control of what people read, listen to and take control of what children learn in school.
7) Religion - Remove the belief in God from the government and schools because the people need to believe in ONLY the government knowing what is best for the people.
8)Class Warfare - Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. Eliminate the middle class. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to tax the rich with the support of the poor.
WE ARE THERE!
Why can people not see what's going on in this country? Are people really that blind?
