Protests have erupted against Trump from the people who have been brainwashed by the media and the Democratic machine. The deep divisions that this election has exposed within the nation and Clinton’s speech not to give up on their agenda invites nothing but violent and civil unrest looking ahead. Of course these very people who say Trump is not their President reveal that it’s their way or no way. They seek to suppress those who produce so they need not in the classic Ann Ryan context. So in other words, the others should be subjugated for their survival. Unfortunately, this is the fate we must comprehend when we are looking at the end of socialism.
Regardless of the candidate, whatever is said in an election is not what always unfolds. These people show their ignorance of the political system and their own hostility. They seek to maintain the deep divide in the nations and that is by no means a way to promote peace.
Texas the Pension Crisis Exposed

Re-Posted Nov 10, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
The pension crisis in Dallas Texas is starting to create panic among beneficiaries and thus the situation is snowballing out of control. The Dallas Police and Fire Pension has been well regarded in the pension world for its diversity among asset classes. The funded ratio was estimated at 64% in 2014. In 2015 a new executive director stepped in, revaluing assets. In the process the real estate portfolio was cut by 31.7% while the private equity portfolio was cut by 20.2% leaving the pension 45% funded.
When the crisis was first announced, the required taxpayer contribution to balance liabilities was estimated at $650 million, this has now increased to $1.1 billion as fund withdraws have heightened the situation. In a six week period in August and September, officers withdrew $220 million from the fund over fear of benefit cuts. The fund may be insolvent as soon as 2027 without major changes. A $1.1 billion would require property taxes to increase by 130%.
The alarming issue is that the average funded ratio for local plans is only 66%. This is the massive crisis ready to explode in our face throughout the nation. Politicians have lied and promised the moon without any realistic management of the economy at any point in time.

The Euro soared to 113 and then crashed and burned to the 109 level. The Dow exceeded yesterday’s high but has not penetrated the previous day’s low. Gold had its reaction up to 1340 and fell back under 1300. Let’s get this much straight. Our computer is NOT showing a major change in trend because of the election. We have warned this is not the case and at the end of the day, fundamentally, Trump will be far more bullish for the US economy that war and more taxes from Hillary.
This is more of a Reagan Moment. Ronald Reagan was the outsider every and the “establishment” in Washington resisted him. This will play-out the same. So let everything calm down. There appears to be no major change in trend at hand. If Trump gets the 15% corporate tax rate in, then look for the dollar to soar and almost $3 trillion come homes.

We did save the republic last night but we are in a war that never ends between those that want to “rule” us and those that don’t want to be “ruled.”
Donald Trump Wins! Stefan Molyneux Performs Beautiful National Anthem
Our Computer Beat the Polls & it Called the Highest Turnout

The total number of registered voters in the USA was 146,311,000 and the total ballots counted 128,843,000. In other words, 88% of registered voters voted. This is a record high historically or just about a revolution without guns. Even looking at the 231,556,622 who were eligible to register, that is 55.6%. Of course, Hillary had REFUSED to concede this election. Her whole life has been geared to be the first woman president. Every dollar she has stolen and finagled was directed at making her president. She remains in a state of total shock.
NOBODY who has EVER run for President has refused to deliver a concession speech for so long with this much against them. This illustrates how Hillary cannot believe all the rigging was not enough. Trump has won both the popular vote and the electoral college. Hillary’s campaign chairman John Podesta said.
“Several states are too close to call, so we’re not going to have anything more to say tonight” at 2am Eastern Time. Around. CNN reported that Clinton had phoned Trump to congratulate him at 2:40AM.
It hasn’t taken this long to deliver a concession speech in a presidential race since 2004 when John Kerry conceded the afternoon after polling day. In 2000, of course, Al Gore took more than a month to concede after an aborted recount and Supreme Court ruling.
This is indeed the biggest “F–K YOU” vote in American History. The computer called this one right just like it did Catalonia would voted to separate from Spain, BREXIT, and now the US Election. It has amazed me personally. Even when I have questioned will be it right because the corruption is so high, it was correct that to accomplish that result it had to be a record turnout both in BREXIT and in the USA.
This is a major revolution to take our liberty back from the career politicians. What is more important is that the Republicans took the Senate and House, but with a lot of new faced riding the coattails of Trump. So they will help him push back against the establishment. Many young girls were concerned for they did not like Hillary saying they are “equal” and should be drafted in time of war. Hopefully, the feminist agenda will now die with her.
For all those emailing in for bet on Trump with 7:1 odds based on Socrates – Great Trade. Congrats!
