Q&A from Martin Armstrong


Armstrong Economics Blog/Q&A Re-Posted Oct 22, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT #1: Marty,

One gets the sense we are closer to a dictatorship than most think.

Twitter, Google, Facebook, and others now appear to be working in overdrive to block content, prevent free speech, report only what suits them, in an effort to sway voters and build momentum for a Biden win.

Surely, anyone with a brain today can see governors and others at the municipal level are part of the effort to restrict movement, impose ridiculous rules that suffocate business, and instill fear. One imagines these people will be handsomely rewarded with bailouts at the state level. At the Federal level, one can project many of these governors will end up in Biden’s cabinet, rewarded for their loyalty.

There is nothing worse than using public office to commit crimes, outright fraud against the public, using taxpayer money to prevent people from living their lives, taking their property, allowing rioting and the destruction of property…all in the name of “public safety”.

I don’t know how we ever recover from this. One thing is clear…you can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube after what they have done this year.

REPLY #1: Socrates warned that the 2020 election would be the most corrupt in history. I really do not think even I could have forecast to what extent these people have gone. We are definitely in a battle for our freedom. You have people who just hate Trump and will vote for Biden only for that reason. They have been manipulated by all the fakes news from RussiaGate to Impeachment and everything in between. Honestly, Trump has been amazing insofar as to have been attacked so intensely from every side and he is still standing. Bannon said if Trump loses, he will run against in 2024. I think they would kill him openly and fear nothing about prosecution anymore.

COMMENT #2: Dear Martin,
Bill Gates’ CO2 and population obsession is bizarre. The first person link CO2 with population and claim that they were bad was Günther Schwab-the Nazi environmentalist. Bill wants people to stop eating meat and eat plant substitutes. Wasn’t Hitler a vegetarian ? Klaus Schwab’s insistence on “stakeholder capitalism” sounds similar to Hitler’s pronouncements on how “industry, the nation, and community[ should work in harmony “in a spirit of sacrifice” (Mein Kampf). You add in the fetishes for medical experimentation, totalitarian surveillance, ‘hygiene’, ‘living space’/social distancing, and a desire for “papers please !” social control, one is left to ask: are these people actual NAZIS in sheep’s clothing?

Klaus’ haughty demeanor and sardonic sneer does make him look like one out of central casting.
I guess their refrain is “This time we are going to get it right”. General Patton and your father may have defeated them militarily, but apparently, the ideology lives on repacked with a PR update. What irony. Boris Johnson is allowing them to do to Britain what his idol Churchill never would have: Nazis take over without even firing a shot.

REPLY #2: Schwab is an academic and therein lies the problem. He is buddy-buddy with Thomas Picketty and the two envision Marxist Utopia. They think with them in charge, they will make it work at last. Schwab is also buddy-buddy with Christine Legard and they talk regularly. She was the first floating Green bond! Boris Johnson is an absolute disgrace. He is already saying he will retire next year because he cannot live on his meager salary. He has been bought and paid for. His goal is to not just crush Britain to join Schwab’s Great Reset but to terminate BREXIT.

COMMENT #3 Martin,

The Google whistleblower, Zach Vorhies, posted this video of what looks like someone recording themselves invalidating the vote of random people.

We have trillions of dollars to waste on useless crap, yet can’t utilize the latest blockchain technology to create a cheat-proof election and voter ID system. I think George Carlin would have some words to say about that if he were still alive.

REPLY #3:  I am not confident that Trump will win despite the fact that the computer shows he SHOULD! I am very concerned the election will he stolen and mainstream media will declare Biden the winner and everything breaks down from here on out.

COMMENT #4: Sir,

It’s interesting how history rhymes. In Rome, Cicero and the fake news. I can’t recall if there was rioting or censorship but probably. Caesar was the “savior” of the people. It ended in an Empire. In Germany in the 30s there was propaganda, crystal night ( looting etc) and book burning ( censorship). Hitler was the ‘savior ‘ of the German people. It morphed into a dictatorship. Today we have fake news, rioting via BLM and censorship. YouTube only lets WHO/Gates related material be shown and censors others viewpoints. The media to include Facebook also censors it as well. Now Amazon.com also performs censorship by not publishing/removing non party (Gates/WHO) materials. So, what type of government are you seeing we will finally have?

Keep up the good work

DK

PS Hope to finally shake your hand at WEC 2020

REPLY #4: We are headed in the same direction. I put all the arrays on politics in that report out for 12 years. You will see why I have been saying that I was afraid of what comes AFTER Trump. I also am deeply concerned that there will no longer be elections post-2024. Biden is a place-holder. He has always been for sale to the highest bidder. The most corrupt always rise to the top – not the cream. They are amending the Constitution because just in case Biden is a problem, they can remove him as mentally incompetent. They have been attacking Trump even before he was elected. This is a serious plot to take over the world and redesign it their way. They will fail and the financial capital of the world will move to China. They are destroying Western culture and they have brainwashed people to vote for Biden only because they hate Trump. They have no idea that they are joining this conspiracy against their own freedom. This is not Democrat v Republican. This is a full-0blown Marxist takeover of the entire world – not just the USA. Anyone who says that they call a “conspiracy theorist” which is a label they are now using so they do not have to answer the substance.

COMMENT #5: Hi Marty Thank you for answering my last question about daily closing. Really appreciated.

I see a lot of messaging about the big bang reset of libor to this other system which could cause a crash. At least there is a lot of speculation around this event. How would that work? Thank you for your answer kind regards Xander

VVM

REPLY #5: I think that is overstated and will end up like all other things that were supposed to blow up the system like the Y2K Scare which was a phenomenon at the turn of the 21st century where computer users and programmers feared that computers would stop working on December 31, 1999. The phenomenon was also referred to as the “Millennium Bug” or  Year 2000 problem” by technology experts. This one will have minor problems as well.

COMMENT #6: “Land of the Free….some restrictions may apply…void where prohibited.”

REPLY #6: Very true!

COMMENT #7:  Hi Mr. Armstrong,
I read recently that the US markets will look forward to a Biden victory because it will mean the distribution of socialist largesse which could raise the markets, if only in the short term. I would welcome your thoughts on this. Thanks for all you do

ST

REPLY #7: Biden is going to raise taxes on everyone earning $400,000 or more PER HOUSEHOLD! Even liberal Stanford University’s Hoover Institution latest report projects that Mr. Biden’s taxation, insurance, regulatory, and energy proposals would combine to reduce full-time equivalent employment by about 3%, or 4.9 million jobs. The Biden program also would shrink real gross domestic product per capita by 8% and the capital stock per person by 15%, resulting in a $6,500 hit by 2030 in median income per household. Biden will push the New Green Deal. Our models show we are moving economically into a decline as we head into 2022. There is no way Biden will be good for the economy. That is propaganda. A vote for Biden in 2020, shows that will become the biggest regret by 2022.

Bill Gates and MIT Unveil Quantum Dots to Mark Children


Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Oct 21, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

Bill Gates and MIT unveil quantum dot technology to mark children’s skin so they can be scanned for vaccine compliance and anything else to be determined later. The MIT researchers have been funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the National Cancer Institute. This new technology uses nano-crystal dyes called quantum microdots. These patterns of dye contain data that can for now mark that a vaccine has been received into the person’s body.

This pattern of dye is embedded under the skin as a vaccine is injected into the human recipient. Therefore, these dots can be injected into the body without our knowledge or consent under laws being prepared in many countries. These dots are bio-compatible micro-particles that are 20 microns in diameter. This arrangement allows the dye to remain fixed in place under the skin upon injection.

There is a much grander agenda going on. Bill Gates does not want to increase the world population, he was raised to worry about it. Simply put, I find it inconsistent that this guy is really trying to help humanity rather than limit the population when he is also developing chips that remotely control birth. Gates has been focused on India and Africa to reduce population growth.

This is why Republic forms of government are so dangerous. He only has to bribe politicians to create a totalitarian state. Democracy is where the PEOPLE decide these issue on a direct vote. This is why I am against career politicians of any party. They are for sale to the highest bidder.Categories:Disease

Presidential Debate Commission Will Mute Mics During Final Debate…


Posted originally on The Conservative Tree House on October 19, 2020 by sundance

In yet another transparent effort to support Joe Biden, the presidential debate commission has announced they will mute microphones during the two minute answer sessions as part of a strategy to assist the promotion of disinformation.

(Via New York Post) The Commission on Presidential Debates has decided to mute microphones to allow each candidate the opportunity for uninterrupted remarks during this week’s final forum.

The mute button will be featured at the start of each 15-minute segment during opening comments, according to the commission. After that time, both mics will be turned on without a mute option to enable debate. (read more)

FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai Releases a Statement Following Facebook and Twitter Censorship…

Following tremendous backlash against Facebook and Twitter for blatant election interference, FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai releases the following statement:

Several U.S. Senators have requested that Facebook and Twitter executives appear for emergency hearings to discuss their recent decisions to block information adverse to candidate Joe Biden.  Big Tech is “all-in” to interfere in the 2020 election.

The Rubicon has been crossed, where this ends is not quite known.

Rona Madness – Michigan’s Comrade Whitmer Declares COVID-19 Will Attack if Standing, But Not if Seated….


Posted originally on The Conservative Tree House on October 13, 2020 by sundance

In the latest example of corona madness; and in the face of state supreme court rulings declaring her unilateral dictates unconstitutional; Comrade Gretchen Whitmer of the Michigan Directorate declares an even more bizarre state rule:

…”bars are now allowed to operate but they may only serve alcohol to people who are sitting down and 6 feet apart.” (link)

Apparently the moonbat-science is settled. If standing with beer, the COVID-19 virus will swoop down and attack; however, if you take a seat with beer your are protected. Thus continues the abject nuttery from the Michigan Directorate of COVID Compliance.

1619–The Left’s final assault on America!


Their 1619 Project would eviscerate, denigrate and replace American history with racist lies allowing them to form a new Government!

Scot Faulkner image

Re-Posted from the Canada Free Press By Scot Faulkner —— Bio and ArchivesOctober 13, 2020

1619--The Left's final assault on AmericaLeftists have launched what they hope can be their final assault on America. Their goal is to obliterate everything good that America ever did or aspired to achieve, erase its citizens’ memories, and sow the seeds for future generations to revile and reject everything that is decent and noble in our country.

They intend to fundamentally change America’s historical narrative away from events and circumstances that made our country the world’s beacon of hope for freedom and representative government. They intend to replace well-documented reality with a false narrative of America being the scourge of the world, based on its enslaving and stealing from minorities to enrich and aggrandize white ruling elites. 

American Flag, Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem as offensive vestiges of racism, slavery and white privilege

Their plan is called the “1619 Project,” an alternative history curriculum for American elementary and secondary students. It was announced in July 2019 with a series of front-page stories in the New York Times, and other major newspapers, explaining its content and the need to: “reframe the country’s history, understanding 1619 as our true founding, and placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of the story we tell ourselves about who we are.”

The 1619 premise is: “Our democracy’s founding ideals were false when they were written.”  Everything that happened in American history flows from the “original sin” of slavery. Every concept, document and institution that shapes and guides America was actually designed to promote slavery and therefore must be eradicated to atone for centuries of racial oppression.

1619 proponents declare that we must “make amends” for America’s crimes against humanity by eliminating monuments, the Electoral College, the Senate, Supreme Court justices, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, federalism, capitalism, and all vestiges of white history and culture. Even hard work, objective thinking, the scientific method, self-reliance, being polite and two-parent families are the product of racism and “white dominant culture,” according to a document that has since been removed from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture. 

The 1619 Project is partnering with those who deem the American Flag, Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem as offensive vestiges of racism, slavery and white privilege.https://lockerdome.com

The centerpiece of the 1619 Project is the false claim that slavery was a uniquely American crime

We could ignore the 1619 Project if it were simply the ravings of a coddled leftist professor in some Ivy League sinecure. But it is not, or at least it is no longer. 

The New York Times leads an array of news media, academic, think tank and public officials who see the 1619 Project as the final solution for turning America against itself. Once they indoctrinate the current generation of elementary and secondary school students with (even greater) hatred for America, drowning out and canceling dissenting voices with charges of racism and white privilege, they will have free rein to establish a permanent totalitarian socialist state.

The 1619 Project was embraced by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, when she led members of the Congressional Black Caucus to Ghana during the August Recess. They wanted the 1619 narrative of the first African slaves arriving at Jamestown to upstage commemorations of the first session of an elected government at Jamestown. To succeed, the 1619 Project must ignore mountains of facts, and fabricate mountains of lies.

The centerpiece of the 1619 Project is the false claim that slavery was a uniquely American crime, infecting everything and everybody it touched to the present day.

In reality, the capture and enslavement of defeated foes and “inferior” people is as old as humankind. Slavery was integral to establishing regional dominance for the Egyptian Pharaohs, Muslim Emirs, Roman Emperors and countless other rulers. The Western Hemisphere’s great civilizations of the Mayans, Incas and Aztecs enslaved their subjugated people for labor and ritual sacrifice. 


African rulers trading their slaves to Muslims or other Africans, and then to Europeans, was born from improved sailing technologies and the need for cheap, forced labor. The 1619 Project ignores the fact that only 9.7% of the Atlantic slave trade involved England’s North American colonies; 90.3% of African slaves were shipped to South America and the Caribbean.

Robert Woodson, who founded the 1776 Project to combat 1619 falsehoods

The 1619 Project ignores that while 12 million West Africans were shipped by Europeans to the Americas, over 17 million East Africans were shipped by Arabs into the Middle East. The 1619 Project ignores the fact that the American colonies began banning slave importation in 1778, during the Revolutionary War, leading to a formal (largely ignored) ban for the entire United States in 1794. 

England did not ban slavery in its colonies until 1807. Meanwhile, the Arab slave trade in East Africa was not eradicated until England destroyed the last slave forts in Zanzibar in 1909. Slavery remains active, if officially banned, in much of the Arab world today—as well as in parts of Africa, in the Chinese and Russian penal systems, and in China-run mines in Congo, where 40,000 children labor for $1-2 a day. 

The year 1619 is important, not because slaves arrived in the new world, but because for the first time in the Western Hemisphere, a free people elected representatives to govern and be held accountable in subsequent elections. This was the first step to America becoming the most exceptional civic culture in world history. That is the true 1619 lesson that leftists want to expunge. 

The Left and New York Times would also have us believe that black Americans are in lockstep with Nikole Hanna-Jones and other authors of the divisive, revisionist 1619 pseudo-history. The claim helps drive their anti-American agenda. But it is false. . 

Many African Americans have battled 1619 fabrications and assertions, while black American thought leaders have eviscerated it—including civil rights leader Robert Woodson, who founded the 1776 Project to combat 1619 falsehoods, because he objects to assertions that the “shadow of slavery and Jim Crow” hangs over the destiny of Black Americans. “Nothing is more lethal,” he says, “than to convey to people that they have an exemption from personal responsibility.”

Eminent historians have also excoriated the phony 1619 history

Wall Street Journal editorial board member Jason Riley notes that the NY Times 1619 scheme is also a foundation of “critical race theory,” which insists that problems within the black community are the fault of whites and the responsibility of whites to solve. It is now being taught in colleges, high schools, middle schools and even elementary schools across the USA—and in companies and government agencies via “diversity” and “racial sensitivity” sessions, where “diversity consultants” tell attendees the US is inherently racist and “virtually all white people” contribute to or benefit from racism. 

Other vocal black critics of the 1619 Project and its adherents include political commentators Armstrong Williams and Candace Owens. Incredibly, notes columnist Deroy Murdock, the NY Times own family history is “rife with slavery, Confederate boosterism, and enforcement of Jim Crow segregation.” 

Eminent historians have also excoriated the phony 1619 history, and Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) has drafted a bill that would cut funding to schools teaching this fake American history.

Sadly and outrageously, all too many academics, Democrats, race hustlers and even some Republicans are vigorously advancing destructive 1619 ideas. Others are too intimidated to speak out against them, out of fear that they will be ridiculed, fired, canceled, harassed online or in restaurants, even beaten or killed. 

Americans must do all they can to stop the 1619 Project and stand-up for the greatest nation on earth, before it’s too late. Bob Woodson’s 1776 Project is a good start. Let’s build on it, starting right now. 

Alarm bells sounding for Biden, Schumer and Pelosi


The messages being delivered by the voters are sounding the alarm bells for Biden, Schumer and Pelosi but they are apparently not listening

Alarm bells sounding for Biden, Schumer and PelosiBeware those polls predicting a Biden win and the Democrats gaining control of the Congress—rather than those polls seeking answers to specific issues which indicate a Trump win and Republican control of the Congress more likely.

The responses to three questions asked in the September 14-28 Gallup poll should concern Biden.

Gallup Poll

  • On the question of “personality and leadership qualities a president should have”:

    Not unexpected.

    President Trump is a businessman and a deal maker—not a career politician like his opponent Joe Biden. Trump runs the country like a big business. The speed and frequency of his decisions contrast with the slow and ponderous ways of the Washington bureaucracy and previous Presidents.

    Two examples: 
    1. Closing America’s borders on January 31, 2020 to flights emanating from China—to arrest the spread of Covid 19—Biden accusing Trump that same day of “hysterical xenophobia—and fearmongering to lead the way instead of science.”
    2. Opening the American Embassy in Jerusalem on May 14, 2018—when all Presidents before him failed to do so after the Jerusalem Embassy Act 1995—adopted by the Senate (93–5), and the House (374–37)—had specifically given them that authority.  
  • On the question of “agree or disagree with (Donald Trump/Joe Biden) on the issues that matter to you most”:

    This result is bad news for Biden/ Democratic Party camp. 

    Trump’s lack of personality and leadership qualities as a president has not stopped a majority of the responders acknowledging Trump has handled issues of concern to them to their satisfaction. Voters will forgive Trump’s personal Presidential failings because he cares more about their issues than a Presidential-looking Biden.

A Biden win looks increasingly unlikely after voters were asked: “Whether They’re Better Or Worse Off Than Four Years Ago”. (See following window)

Gallup Poll
  • 56% consider themselves better off in 2020 than in 2016—after Biden had then been their Vice President for the previous 8 years. 
  • The responders had lived through the unprecedented Covid 19 pandemic for nine months that had threatened to destroy their own hopes and dreams of being better off than four years ago. 

Statista’s poll has ominous consequences for Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi regarding the elections for Congress—the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Statista puts the disapproval rating of the United States Congress at 80%—the highest disapproval rating in the past 12 months (See following Window):

Statista

It should be noted this 80% disapproval rate:

  • increased from 68% in December 2019—when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was still considering whether to impeach President Trump on charges of abuse of power and obstruction—to 74% in February 2020 after Trump had been found not guilty by the Senate
  • is likely to shoot even higher as: 
    1. the Senate begins its confirmation hearings into appointing Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court—which the Democrats will oppose 
    2. Pelosi moves to establish a process to effectively give Congress a say in removing a president from office under the 25th Amendment of the Constitution—which the Republicans will oppose 
    3. Trumps’ offer of $1.8 trillion in a renewed search for an economic relief deal is being rejected by Pelosi
    4. Senate Minority leader Schumer threatens to replace the filibuster, pack the Supreme Court and create two new states Puerto Rico and Washington DC. 

Biden’s accomplishments over 47 years—8 as Vice President—pale in comparison to what Trump has achieved in 4 years

The messages being delivered by the voters are sounding the alarm bells for Biden, Schumer and Pelosi but they are apparently not listening. 

America, Thou Art Sick: Biden and Kamala’s Rickety Ticket Will Explode Into USA Society


Are Voters Sleepwalking Into an Non-Survivable Political Disaster? 

Kelly OConnell image

Re-Posted from the Canada Free press By Kelly OConnell —— Bio and ArchivesOctober 10, 2020

Something Wicked This Way Comes, Kamala Harris and Joe Biden
INTRO: Something Wicked This Way Comes

Are we really ready to give America to a mentally infirm man and Congress’s most radical Senator? Then prepare for the most shocking societal change since Nero sat on Caesar Augustus’ throne. Consider advertised progressive goals that are mere parasites on those necessary for human flourishing. 

From Full-Throated Capitalism to Sickly Socialism

Consider, after recent historic low minority unemployment, we’re informed the real need is increased socialism, despite our #1 Fed budget item being social welfare. Again, no Global Warming prediction has ever materialized. Yet, we’re constantly directly to immediately install radical policies or perish. These policies, by jousting with unicorns, will destroy the American economy. Biden plans $4.3 trillion in tax increases to fund universal healthcare, free college and many other new policies. 

Maniacal Dems
Democrats are led by maniacs. Consider spastic, glowering Speaker Pelosi, refusing to condemn riots or statue toppling. Informed of sanctions by the Senate if she retried impeachment, Nancy now invokes the 25th Amendment to declare Trump mentally unfit. Kamala is a Trojan Horse of mind-blowing leftism, while Biden an empty-headed human parrot, ready to pack the Supreme Court and  ban petroleum while adding ruinous climate bills. Marxism waxes as historic America hangs out on a limb. 

Marxist Cult of Violence
Consider the cult of violence employed by Democrat Marxist Black Lives Matters and Antifa. According to Communism & Political Violence, recurrent riots originate in the apotheosis of the Russian Revolution, claiming it the signal event in world history. So, since the Bolsheviks used violence to overcome the Tsar, so must every other “legitimate” Marxist revolution. In 1905, Lenin directed his “Combat Committee” to launch acts of arson, theft and other terror, for example. https://lockerdome.com/lad/11136804967644006?pubid=ld-11136804967644006-671&pubo=https%3A%2F%2Fcanadafreepress.com&rid=canadafreepress.com&width=336

Dem Leaders & Economic Sabotage
The leftist angle of COVID-19 laws and George Floyd Riots response reveals all plague rules and riot policing contingent upon mayor and governor party affiliation, delivering Trump economic sabotage. Democrats across America refused to condemn violence and destruction. So, while Portland burns,  trust-fund Mayor Ted Wheeler still refuses Fed help, demanding de-federalizing city police. As Oregon  Gov. Kate Brown ignores National Guard, waves of businesses abandon Portland. Marxist terror is meant to break the will and budgets of patriotic capitalists

Safety & Police Implications
It’s a truism of leftist jurisdictions BLM/Antifa rioters are not prosecuted. Given routine assaults and constant arson, insurance payouts may top $2 billion. Will these companies sue city and states for abandoning policing? With reduced funds and 700 police injured during protests, who will protect citizens as departments “defund”? Diluted future leftist courts won’t support law and order, either. 

CONCLUSIONS: Nihilism is Not Leadership

Biden and Kamala eschew comments on court packing, banning petroleum and funding the New Green Deal. Given George Soros’ influence, “quality of life” policing will disappear. As America would fall into anarchy, we don’t have to accept this disastrous destiny. We can reject Demented Joe and ultra-ambitious, infinitely liberal Kamala.  Let’s choose law, order, economic growth and patriotism, instead.

Giddy Up: It’s Time to Kick-start the 2020 Election Ground Reports – What Are You Seeing?


Posted originally on The Conservative Tree House on October 11, 2020 by sundance

It’s that time again when we kick-off the pre-election ground reports.  With Treepers in every state, your information is actually a great insight into the political landscape.

Red & Blue

Individual reports are obviously anecdotal; however, when they are compiled on a larger scale, and overlaid against the social media network we also follow, these ground reports have proven to be pretty darned accurate.

Recent state polling in Florida (not done by national media) shows President Trump with a considerable lead over Joe Biden.  The stronger than 2016 support from Miami-Dade and the increase in Latino voters for President Trump are a significant factor.  Local data and ground reality both support my own review that the Florida margin in 2020 is near the Ohio margin in 2016.   Without large mail-in ballot manipulation the Harris-Biden ticket doesn’t stand a chance in Florida.  It’s over.

EXAMPLE-2: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were in Phoenix, Arizona, and the lack of support was remarkable.  A ground report from Phoenix aligns with the visible reality and highlights a true reflection avoided by MSM:

I live in Phoenix. I’d like to file the following report “on the ground” here in Arizona.

There are reports Joe Biden drew eight people in Phoenix when he visited here last Thursday.

The enthusiasm gap is staggering. There is very little real/organic support for Biden. Very few yard signs and very few Biden/Harris car bumper stickers. By contrast, there are hundreds and hundreds of old cars/pickups with Trump flags and American flags driving around. This morning, I saw a “Democrats for Trump” bumper sticker.

I have “coffee with the cops” whenever I can and the Democrat’s avowed support for Antifa/Anarchists has turned all the cops against Biden. They called his anti-police polices “bleep.” I can’t imagine any police union member supporting for him.

People here want a job not a government handout. Cindy McCain has zero support and virtually no influence.

My two boys recently graduated from ASU and were shocked by the college faculty’s attempt at liberal indoctrination. They just wanted to get a job after graduation. They will be voting for Trump (based on their own life experiences, not mine).

We the people are being sold a “bill of goods” about Biden the likes of which I’ve never seen or imagined. It is an epic crock.

God speed, patriots!  (link)

All visible support for President Trump is genuinely organic, grassroots and easily identifiable as not being politically coordinated.  Conversely all media-focused support for Joe Biden -used to frame the current election narrative- is transparently astroturf, inorganic and easily identified as being contrived.  There truly is a remarkable and easily witnessed distinction.

Additionally, I see the COVID weaponization for political purposes as a net negative. No-one has ever won an election by relying on American voters to be stupid.  We have our political differences but the DNA in our national blood carries a strong BS detector.  Once people pay attention, in the aggregate Americans can tell when things are manipulated.

So here’s the question…  What do you see in your area?

What is the visible situation from your community and how does that contrast or align with the national narrative you are seeing as promoted by media?

Ground reports are a great way to get a *sense* of the election.

The 2020 Elections & Beyond


Armstrong Economics Blog/Reports and DVDs Re-Posted Oct 9, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

Here is the 2020 Election Forecast and Beyond. This is a special report that provides the Forecasting Arrays out for 12 years so this is not just the 2020 election. Here you will see firsthand why the markets crash and then rally and people are confused and this illustrates why I have said that I am not afraid of Trump but comes AFTER Trump and why elections may vanish post-2024.

Anyone can claim to have forecast the Trump victory in 2016 based on a gut feeling expressed logically for their reasons. Here the first four political models back in 2016 were all unanimous calling for a Trump victory – not my personal opinion. Only Socrates was able to forecast Trump’s victory years in advance and BREXIT. Neith was based on my personal opinion. The standard in the forecast is one opinion against another. We have to move beyond that if we ever hope to see the future consistently.

This nearly 200-page report provides the models on both the prospects for Trump based on the popular vote as well as the Electoral College. Then you will find the forecasts for the combined Senate and House – Congress with the system models, technical analysis, and the cyclical Arrays. This is followed by specific sections for the Senate and Congress.

Then you will find all 50 states covered with the model forecasts for the outcome of each state.

This is the report we would provide to those in power for each election. Because of the seriousness of what we face on a political level globally, we are making this report available to everyone. Those attending the World Economic Conference need not purchase this report – it is included in your ticket price.

We will be posting this report for downloads next week.
