Sabotaging the economy

How could that possibly work, you say. The economy is the economy, impervious to, well, just about anything except the high taxes and onerous business regulations and political uncertainty that stifled it for eight years under Bronco Bama.

Not so. “…because the condition of the economy, to a great extent,  is what you say it is or, more importantly, feel it is or can convince others that it is. It’s wide open to legerdemain. Economic success is governed almost as much by raw emotion as at is by the reality of profit and loss. What is the mood of consumers? What is the mood of big business, entrepreneurs, etc.?”

So the Progs and their Leftist buddies are taking every opportunity to undermine Trump by “sabotag[ing] the economy by jawing it down, by making it sound worse than it is” with the help of the anti-Trump fake news.

For instance a piece I read the other day claimed more people were living in their vehicles than ever before, quoting some people in California and South Dakota. Sure, California, land of high taxes and higher rents, but South Dakota?

“These cries of economic disaster will only grow more intense as we approach the mid-terms.  Every little statistical waver will [be] blown way out of… proportion. Schumer and Pelosi will say that bread lines are imminent.”

Overturning Dim corruption: Voter ID

President Trump wants it, so there’s a chance that Dim corruption on the point will at last be overturned.

“In this country, the only time you don’t need [an ID] is when you want to vote…” he said. “But we’re turning it around.”

Other countries—including Mexico whence cometh the illegals the Dims want to vote for them without identification—have Voter ID. It’s past time for us to have it too.

Mars landing too risky

“In “Not Close Enough, a team consisting of NASA and international astronauts sits in orbit around Mars but doesn’t get to go to the surface.  NASA has decided it’s too risky.”

The story is from a good new book Blue Collar Space by Martin Shoemaker. Wherein NASA’s fear of losing astronaut lives is explored. That fear has crippled our space program, space lawyer Laura Montgomery argues. And it makes sense. Such that our only hope to ever land on Mars or do anything else except at great expense is with commercial space, and blowhards like Elon Musk.
