Some people think that Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who is leading the polls in Mexico, is their answer to Trump. This is once again the constant trend of trying to blame Trump for everything. In 1933, Adolf Hitler came to power and Mao Zedong rose in China. At the same time, we saw Franklin Roosevelt take office after beating Herbert Hoover. The PROPER way to view politics is rather simple. The people in Mexico are sick and tired of career politicians and they too are demanding REAL CHANGE. The key to understanding the political trend is very clear and distinct — whoever is in power is thrown out without a particular political view be it left or right.

This is a generational shift. That is what these 51.6-year waves in the Economic Confidence Model truly represent when we are looking at societal changes. Nearly half of all eligible voters in Mexico are now under 40, and of that, 20% will be voting for the very first time! We are watching the younger generation coming to power and the old ideas are falling rapidly. The younger generation is an age group that is profoundly disenchanted with the political “establishment” and are DEMANDING a moral leader to bring about real change, not just in Mexico, but around the entire world.

The change in government over corruption in Malaysia was profound. Now we see thousands of anti-corruption protesters are demonstrating in cities across Romania for the fifth day after a court sentenced the country’s most powerful politician for official misconduct. There have been far more than 10,000 demonstrators waving Romanian and European Union flags outside the government offices in Bucharest on this past weekend. They were singing the national anthem and using their smartphone torches to illuminate the night sky. They were yelling: “We don’t want to be a nation of thieves!” and “Down with the Social Democratic Party!”

The Mueller investigation is all about removing Trump from office, which has been cheered by CNN, New York Times, and The Washington Post among many others. They are intent on overturning the results of a Democratic election to ensure this is no longer a government of the people for the people. They see this as intolerable and those who voted for Trump are too stupid to vote anyway. I have actually heard that argument. So we all know what the objective here really is – Mueller is to overthrow the presidency. Yet, history may one day write that this is the very man who created the Second American Civil War.

Mueller is hell-bent on charging Trump to get him out of office. The bureaucracy then will take back the government and suppresses the people, grinding us into the dirt. What they overlook is that the resentment from both sides is turning into sheer unbridled hatred and this is the foundation needed for a Civil War. This is by no means the first time a president was elected this century and many said he didn’t really win. Of course, the election of Abraham Lincoln led to the secession of several states who also rejected the election because they lost. The South rose up against the North and the Civil War began. The Supreme Court gave George Bush the election and that began to stir the discontent among the people.

The Presidential election of 1824 was really the start of the Civil War. This followed the Missouri Compromise which was legislation passed on May 9th, 1820, and provided for the admission of Maine as a free state along with Missouri as a slave state. This maintained the balance of power between North and South in the United States Senate. It was showing that the tension was rising when the presidential election followed four years later.

John Quincy Adams won the election and served as president from March 4, 1825 — March 4, 1829, but he actually lost in electoral votes and in popular votes to Andrew Jackson. The 12th Amendment specified if no candidate for president has a majority of the total votes in the Electoral College, then the House of Representatives, voting by states and with the quorum was to consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. The 12th Amendment requires the House to choose from the three highest receivers of electoral votes, compared to five under the original procedure. Henry Clay was thus eliminated and he threw his support to Adams. In the contingent election decided in Congress, Clay’s backing gave the Presidency to Adams on the first ballot. Jackson accused Clay and Adams of having agreed to a “corrupt bargain” in which Clay supported Adams in return for his appointment to the most prestigious Cabinet position. This was the event that split the Democratic-Republican Party into the National Republican Party and Jackson forming the Democratic Party.

The hatred that is brewing is really out of control. We have the actor Peter Fonda calling to kidnap Trump’s son and put him in a cage. To advocate kidnapping, anyone in the president’s family is just insane. This is showing there is no longer any civility left. The Hollywood industry is simply out of control. Kathy Griffin thought it was funny to show a bloody severed head of the president on TV. There is ZERO respect for the office of the presidency. I was not a fan of Obama, but you do not cross the line and propose violence against him and then in another breath protest gun violence and call for all guns to be banned.

The left is historically always the violent side. The right argues to be left alone. The left cannot sleep at night because they worry the right is not submitting to their control. The revolutions in Russia and China came from the left. The French Revolution was also a leftist movement and that is where they began with the “Commune” project. It was the French who convinced Marx about Communism.

In 1848, territory won from Mexico was to become a state. This upset the balance of power and it illustrated that tensions were rising between the North and South. The True Issue or “That’s What’s the Matter” is a Currier & Ives print showing General George McCellan preaching a peaceful end to the Civil War standing between Lincoln and Jeff Davis trying to support the union. An American Civil War certainly becomes possible between 2024 and 2026 if tensions continue to rise. Interestingly enough our volatility models on the prospect of a civil war bottomed in 2008.

Based upon our model, assuming Trump remains in office and is even re-elected in 2020, that brings us to 2024 and that is where we see a serious risk of rising tensions that could bring about a Second American Civil War. This is what I mean when I ask, “What comes after Trump

COMMENT: It is really getting so bad with CNN they should just be shut down for they are no longer a news organization but a political propaganda machine. They paint Trump as getting a bad deal with North Korea and they then tried to make him look like an idiot saying to Trudeau that Canada was involved in the War of 1812. Am I wrong, but Canada was still British in 1812 and indeed declared war on the United States?

ANSWER: Yes, you are correct. Canada was not an independent nation until the Constitution Act officially proclaimed the Canadian Confederation on July 1, 1867. It was initially with only four provinces: Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. Canada actually declared war on the USA before Britain and it is assumed that they simply had advanced notice. CNN tried to make it seem as if the USA invaded Canada first as if this began the War of 1812. They omit the fact that the British restricted US trade with France and went as far as seizing Americans and forcing them to man ships for the British as if the USA was not even a country.

The United States suffered several very costly defeats at the hands of British, Canadian, and Native American troops who Canada hired. So yes, the “Canadians” who were really British back then,  were part of the War of 1812 and that included the capture and burning of the nation’s capital, Washington, D.C., in August 1814. The Americans were able to repel the British invasions in New York, Baltimore, and New Orleans. The British/Canadians made a good attempt to conquer the United States. Eventually, there was the Treaty of Ghent on February 17, 1815, which ended the war. That still did not resolve all the issues and the British were seeking revenge for the American Revolution. Therefore, the War of 1812 has often been called the “second war of independence” and CNN deliberately misrepresented the facts once again to stab Trump in the back.

It turns out that the Fake News has managed to use a picture of little Hondorus girl and told the world she was taken from her mother. The girl’s father has come out and made it clear that she was NEVER taken from her mother and she is with her mother in the immigration center in McAllen, Texas where they have applied for asylum. The girl’s confirmed father, Denis Valera, told Reuters: “My daughter has become a symbol of the … separation of children at the U.S. border. She may have even touched President Trump’s heart.”  The Honduran deputy foreign minister Nelly Jerez confirmed Valera’s version of events.

So once again we have clear evidence of Fake News simply desperate to discredit Trump at every possible step. The United States is slipping into a state of two countries. The left simply hates the right and the right cannot understand the left. This is the very condition that is the forerunner of a civil war. It really does not matter that the truth comes out about this little girl. People believe what they want to believe which is self-evidence of how rapidly the media will jump on anything to create dissent, hatred, and division with the United States. They are doing an excellent job at creating disunity and this will not end well. The War Cycle internally within the USA turned up beginning in 2014 and moves intensely into 2024-2025.
