NATIONALISM ON TWO FRONTS AND PENDING CHAOS ON THE OTHER.


            Chinese Nationalism and Russian Nationalism is a reality. A pending political and perhaps social crisis is also a reality, but not in the other two Super Powers. It’s the pending future of the US. If you are in the category of people who respond by saying, “ Oh..China has it’s problems and just because some think they are turning Nationalistic doesn’t mean it’s true”….or, “ Putin is not as popular in Russia as everyone thinks he is and Russia is ready for change”, then you need to dig a much deeper hole to stick your head in. As a matter of fact, you may just want to cover yourself and use one of those illegal straws California is so upset over.   Nationalism is a reality in China and in Russia and they both smell blood in the water, US blood!

Get Trump:

            Let me go back to a few statements I’ve made in the past and then I’ll show you why they matter now more than ever. Did the Trump Campaign attempt to find “dirt” on the Clinton Campaign? Yes. Do you think this was some great anomaly? Do you really believe past Campaigns, and I’m talking all of them, have not done so? Do you truly believe the US’s political system is that pure? No, I know you don’t. No one in the US does, just look at the polls that depict the publics opinion of Politicians. Did Trump’s Team collude with the Russian government to get “dirt” on Hillary? No government ever plays this game at a level that would expose direct ties to other countries “officials”, at least no modern government. Did Hillary’s team seek information on Trump? Did they reach out to individuals or organizations that have shadowy backgrounds, backgrounds that would have indirect ties to Nation States desires? The answer is yes to both campaigns. Is it possible that both campaigns were manipulated by other nations and I say other nations, because you are a fool if you think the Russians are the only ones that play this game, that is unless you have some other reason you wish to pin the whole event on Moscow? Just how many elections do your think the US has openly and covertly attempted to manipulate? Do you recall my past comments about an event in Chile in 1973?  Whose “Boy” was Pinochet and if that one is not good enough for you, whose “boy” was Ho Chi Minh? Look. I’m not going to spend the rest of my time on this post debating what Hillary did or what Trump did. The issue at hand is far more important than that. The issue is not what they did, but why the response came about the way it did and what are the repercussions?  

He wasn’t Supposed to Win.

            In the US, you hear this time and time again. “ He wasn’t supposed to win”. That’s the battle cry of those who support Trump. “ He rigged the election with the Russians”. That’s the battle cry of those who hate him. In a nation that has been split down the middle since the Civil War, with elections that have been won by less than 3 to 5 percentage points, it seems the animosity between the two parties would be seen as nothing new. Here is the real danger, the 21st Century danger. Those two camps in the US, Conservative and Liberal have pulled away from the center at an alarming rate. Yes, that has taken place in the past. Just look at the President Johnson events shortly after Lincoln’s assassination, but the world was not connected then. The power of Social Media was not there. The weaponization of information on a global scale didn’t exist. Hit someone with a stick in California with ten people standing around and five minutes later, the world is reading on social media about the “Riots” in the US.  Yes. The sleaziness of Politics has not changed. The lust for power has not changed. What has changed is the most powerful weapon that man as ever invented is now in the hands of governments. social media. It’s cheap, it’s easy and it can bring down a nation in a matter of days, just ask the Egyptians.
            Trump was not supposed to win? Why? Because the polls said so? How many times have you heard how useless polls have become? To those that support Trump, Polls are not the reason. “The Deep State”. That is the reason. That’s where the, “Drain the Swamp” concept came from, not the first time we’ve heard this statement, but Trump made it work. The Deep State? Who makes up this so called Deep State? You can listen to a dozen, “experts” and everyone of them will tell you to buy their book and you will see the light. Yep. Scaring people is big business, but is the concept false? Is there no such thing as a Deep State? Sorry to say, but, yes, there is such an organization and who the member are should not surprise you. What is the “end-state” of the Deep State, that is the far more important issue.
            I once walked into an old friend’s office and noticed he had put a poster up on his wall. It was the picture of an old American Indian Chief and below him were the words, “Democrats and Republicans…. Feathers off the same Bird”.  The Bureaucrats….. the folks who believe they are the Autocrats of both US political parties. Here’s the catch. The members of the “Deep State” are not just government employees. I know, that is nothing new and you’ve heard that time and time again but let me give you a new twist to contemplate. Members of the Deep State are not citizens of the US. When it comes to money, HUGE money, citizenship and party politics will typically play second fiddle.
            So, along comes this guy who figured out how to win the Electoral College in the US and he beats out the family rep to the international “Deep State”. The Clintons spent years manipulating the flow of money on a global scale. Deals were set. The Russian’s would be placed back on the pedestal as the world’s true villain and the funds that would have to be spent to stop them once again would be in the trillions. Remember, we are talking about a person who was the US Secretary of State when she announced that Putin had to be stopped. You want to talk about medaling in other nation’s elections? Try that statement on for size. The only problem was , the person she convinced her Boss to support ended up dead, kinda like Vince Foster. Well, the next thing you know, Trump is saying things like, why is there still a NATO and why doesn’t the UE pay their share of the bill? Wait….wait…. this guy is going to upset the natural order of things. Who does he think he is? So, you see, the world had a rhythm. The so called “Deep State” / the international Deep State, had it all figured out and then Trump won! Trump, the guy who looks at every meeting like a CEO Board Meeting that’s reviewing cost and investments. All of this is old news. Every word here is part of much a larger topic that has been tossed around since the day Trump won. Let’s get back to what’s important. Let’s get back to the, “so what”, part of this story, because it’s the “so what”, that can change the future.

Nationalist vs Chaos:

            The Dragon is on the move. One Belt, One Road and 1.5 Billion Chinese being led by an authoritarian Emperor who has temporarily, and I do mean temporary, partnered with the Russian Bear and its Tsar. The Western International Deep State Team has been manipulated into leveraging the growing divide inside the US and it seems the Eagle is heading for a hard landing. The people in the US are so focused on the Crisis half are cheering for and the other half is praying against, that few of them see what is coming. Without unity, there is no desire. Without pride, there is no effort. Yes, the old saying once again comes to the forefront, “ A divided nation cannot stand”.  How does a nation, even one as powerful as the US, withstand the pressure of two completely Nationalistic Super Powers when the US seems bent on tearing itself apart?  Look. Here is the real bad news. This is not some self- cleansing event. When you hear CNN and MSNBC talk about the US Department of Justice working to bring “Justice” to the nation, it’s a “Justice” only part of the nation believes is true. Have you heard CNN or MSNBC or even FOX speak to the issue of what may happen if President Trump is removed from power? What percentage of the nation will believe any finding DOJ comes up with? What percentage of the US believes the DOJ has been turned into a political weapon, or worse, a weapon of the dreaded, Deep State, a state both US parties seem to be beholding to. Just how much damage can the US withstand? It’s largest cities have virtually nothing in common with 95 percent of the geographical landscape. For decades, it’s been the Liberal left that has marched in the streets of the US’s major cities, marches that were supported by the KGB in a quest to weaken the nation. What if that tide turns? What if the people who support Trump take to the streets because the don’t accept the findings of the DoJ? Has anyone thought about where the US may be heading and all over a process the US political system has been using for over 100 yrs? If the verdict is, “Trump didn’t beep his horn and the law states you have to use your horn before you pass someone on a roadway”, then what? Yes, it’s a simplistic analogy, but the point is important. Who is the victor at the end of the day? If we remove a duly elected President, who gains from the event? Two of the Three Super Powers in this world praise their leader, yes some at gun point, In the Third, they are ready to lynch him and anyone who supports him. You tell me who wins in the end?  For those of you who scream for Trump’s scalp, are you prepared for what comes afterwards? I am😊
