Nature and Fate Are Sometimes Coincidentally Ironic, Even in the Affairs of Human Political History -- An Indicated Case in Point Applicable to the Current Political History of the USA


"2025 = 45^2" -- This Is the Same as 2025 x 2025 = 45^2, A Cosmological Flight-of-the-Mind Surmise on It in Reference to the Current Political History of the USA


Nature and fate are sometimes coincidentally ironic in the development and flow of the events of history, or human history. The irony applied to the number 45 here is that it was the presidential number, in the order of US presidents, of Donald Trump when he was first elected US president, and when

squared, it coincides and correlates with the year of his inauguration and taking office, a second time after a 4-year hiatus resulting from his 11-03-2020 defeat for reelection as US president by thereafter POTUS Joe Biden, by reelection on 11-05-2024, as US president as of the year 2025, in the first month of 2025, on presidential inauguration day of 01-20-2025. The sad pun of irony in the coincidence of the concerned equation of 2025 = 45^2 as relates to Donald Trump and his reelection as US president, given his character, personality, lifestyle and modus operandi, is that in probable reality his second presidency will be a different version of the economic, social and political tumult and disaster of the first Trump presidency that is exponentially worse rather than double trouble to it in his second presidency (Let us hope that it is not such for the fate of the USA and our US Constitutional Bill of [Universal Citizen Democratic] Rights Republic form of government in spirit, deed and operation.), which, again, starts in January of 2025. Occasionally, there is spooky action in the space-time distance of cosmic history of every kind, including human history and human political history.

This smacks of being the coincidental harbinger equation of spooky action at a distance in the sometimes rhyme of time of events and developments in human political history. Nature puns, too, sometimes mischievously and wickedly in effect, by, as a matter of happenstance or chance, tossing out a monkey wrench into our midst in human affairs.

No, Theists, Theology Does Not Explain Cosmogenesis and Cosmology

 

Theology Does Not Explain Cosmogenesis and Cosmology

No, theists,
theology does not EXPLAIN cosmogenesis and cosmology in the least. It merely asserts without any verifiable evidence or proof that a deity or deities, called a God, god or Gods and/or Goddesses, declared, magicianed or cartooned the universe and everything in it into existence and controls, or control, the behavior and fate of everything in it, whereas nothing, deities included, can do anything, including perform any movement or action or create, without energy, fundamental, pre-requisite, pre-existing, inherent, mutable, transformational, morphable energy, the essence, source and be all of any and all motion, action, kinetics, power and matter-materiality (the mc2 or mc^2 side of the energy and matter interchangeability equation E=mc2 or E=mc^2 tells us that [default] energy is required to change matter into energy and energy into matter). Energy, which empirically exists and has been empirically proven to exist everywhere, including in vacuum space, resides in its host of empirical foremost fundamental dimensional space, space-time. Nothing can exist beyond or apart from space-time because oxymoronically to exist beyond or apart from space-time is to [nevertheless] exist somewhere or someplace else, which inextricably and inescapably is still somewhere [else], thus space, and is still existence, in which mere existence, even that of dimensional space, is the fundamental state of being, which is the foremost and default state of time (that is to say, the state of mere existence or being of something is the foremost fundamental state of time of that thing, applicable to foremost fundamental dimensional space, space-time itself, everything and totality). In the absence of dimensional space, space-time, thereby and therefore rudimentary informational space, space-time mere existence, there can be absolutely nothing, not its distance, expanse, duration (which is measurable as a progression of overt, implied or covert motion or tenure of a thing, and can be finite, indefinite in part or overall or infinite and so entails the flow, thus energy flow, of existential and from-to structural or abstract time), nor its (space, space-time's) vertical, horizontal and depth axises, nor even its inherent therein fundamental energy and its energy's derivative matter, nor light nor darkness nor temperature (heat, cold, or neutral), nor any information, mathematics of things and the properties of things or geometry, etc. Likewise, there could not be any dimensionality, information or time without energy, and, thus, no space, space-time or time -- in this sense, energy is integral to dimensional space, space-time and time and the state of mere existence. The beginning had to have been and was an energy-action and evolutionary and developmental [process and] event for each and every thing. What, you might ask, came before energy? The answer can only be circularly that energy-action, the power-source, powerer-doer, is the technical, theoretical and logical-philosophical explanatory prime, default cause and causal-force [source].

That space, space-time can varyingly bend and warp by the presence, magnitude and geometry of mass in and acting on it and ripple and stretch from the action-reaction power, or recoil, effect of the collision and merger of black holes, neutron stars or a black hole and neutron star, and can expand-stretch faster than the speed of light from and shrink to or dwell in and at singularities, it exhibits itself to be energetic and may itself be a supreme, ultimate, boundlessly mutable form of energy. In addition, space, space-time geometry configures and is concurrent with and characterizes the particular identities of all things and the attributes, uniquenesses, differences and similarities as well as changes in and of all things.

Contrary to Some Mainstream-Source and Freelance Wrong Analyses in Explanation for the 11-05-2024 US Presidential Election Victory of Former POTUS Donald Trump Over VP Kamala Harris

Contrary to some mainstream-source and freelance wrong analysis proffering explanations otherwise for the 11-05-2024 US presidential election victory of former POTUS Donald Trump over incumbent VP Kamala Harris,

all of the major polls on the pending-US presidential election showed that the election was a toss-up that could break either way. Their earlier and election exit polls found that a majority of voters rated Trump a better manager of the economy than Biden and blamed Biden for the onerous, on the middle and under classes, high price inflation as well as said that they were economically better off when Trump was president than under President Biden, wrongly, either forgetfully, ignorantly or facetiously. In the few months before the election, Trump successively promised elimination of federal income taxes on 1) tip income, very important to and popular with workers in the hotel, restaurant, hospitality, cab and ride-fare and airport, plus, and luggage-handling services industries, 2) overtime pay, important to and popular with all of the preceding workers as well as, regularly, to and with police and firefighters, factory, store, construction and office workers, and, periodically, hospital, fed, state and municipal civil-servant, tax-season and school and professional sports-event workers and 3) on Social Security Insurance retirement system pensions, important to and popular with Social Security Insurance system pensioners and those near retirement, both men and women for all categories, wherein such federal-income-tax- free income would result in a large increase in income to the beneficiaries monthly and annually, permanently. (The problem with the tax-free Social Security pensions, if legislatively approved by both houses of the US Congress and signed into law by President-elect Trump after he is inaugurated as US President on 01-20-2024, is that the heretofore federal income taxes on them were systemically and continuously recycled back into the Social Security retirement system trust fund to help sustain the Social Security retirement program permanently. If and when they are gone, their disappearance. their loss, may or would hasten the breaking-point solvency issue with the whole program, for future thereafter paid-in, eligible recipients.)

For a long time preceding the 2024 US presidential election, the MAGA media network deliberately and falsely attributed the state of highly inflated prices to President Biden and his Presidency and the falsehood that households were economically better off under the Trump Presidency than the current Biden Presidency, whereas objective recent economic history records that this situation as well as the drastic downturn in the US economy that resulted in massive business failures, unemployment and major shortages of essential goods in stores, most memorably and dramatically toilet paper, and soaring prices, as well as in more than 775,000 Covid-19 pandemic caused deaths in the USA, resulted both from the initial downplaying and mismanagement of the Covid-19 pandemic in the USA by the Trump Presidency in 2020 and its pass-along tariffs on foreign imports to USA importers and consumers, increasing the prices of products, materials, components and parts imported from exporters-suppliers and sold or otherwise used by respectively USA importer-retailers and importer-product producers. Also, the record shows that the Biden Presidency has remediated all of the problems, though not returned high prices to what they were in the pre-inflationary period, which has never happened in economic history, but has, in conjunction with the Federal Reserve Bank, reduced the rate of inflation to almost the FRB default goal rate of 2%. Before the election and in the exit polls a large percentage of voters were parroting MAGA-media propaganda, that had become gaslighted false belief to them, about the source and state of their difficult economic situation and referring to it as their reason for voting for Trump over Harris, in which they associated President Biden's VP Harris with Biden's mistaken blameworthiness for their difficult economic situation.

Crossover voters from these constituencies, across age, gender, ethnicity and race, aligned to become voters for the Trump 2024 presidential candidacy (motivated moreover by Trump's stated promised political-economic incentives) and added to Trump's secure, solid-core circa MAGA-GOP & GOP 33 to 40% bloc of the voting electorate, with GOP defectors of conscience turned away from voting for Trump. Their numbers offset the GOP rejectors and defectors of the GOP's Trump candidacy and were much more than enough in numbers to give Trump the margin of victory he needed and obtained to be elected US president on US presidential election day of 11-05-2024.  Although Trump won the election's crucial and deciding Electoral College vote by a wide margin, by 86 votes (312 for Donald Trump vs. 226 for Kamala Harris), he won the popular vote, quite as the major pre-election polls predicted, by a near toss-up, yet-definitive margin, of 1.3% (77,137,560, or 49.9% of, votes for Trump, vs. 74,703,910, or 48.3% of, votes for Harris) -- he did not win a majority of the popular vote but won a plurality of the popular vote:  US presidential election results 2024: Harris vs. Trump | Live maps, charts and the latest vote count (reuters.com) .  As of the date of 12-04-2024, vote counting continues in some locations in the USA, trending with increasing ratio numbers for Harris and decreasing ratio numbers for Trump that are far too few when counted in total to either change Trump's Electoral College vote-count victory or popular-vote election victory, but are enough to lessen the margin of his popular-vote victory by a tenth or more or less of a percent.

President-elect Trump’s 1) proposed Department of Government Efficiency (referred to simply as DOGE), proposed by him to be led by the world’s both richest person and billionaire Elon Musk, with a likely termination-exempt and irreducible multibillion-dollar, annually, space-services-program contract, or more, with the US Government, paid in taxpayer income tax dollars, and mega-millionaire Vivek Ramaswamy, with a fortune of circa less than a hundred million-dollars short of a billion dollars, whose assigned task is to vilify and/or delegitimize as corrupt, superfluous and wasteful in spending and strip down to a minimum the public services agencies and programs, for most of the USA plutocracy-oligarchy their loathed administrative public services state (whose generationally traditional idea has been and is that with its demise, tax money from the plutocracy-oligarchy will no longer be needed and called for to support it), of the federal government to save expenditures of taxpayer tax money in the name of federal fiscal discipline and efficiency, and 2) his proposed large and wide-ranging tariffs on imported products, in effect a national sales tax on imports and domestically made products that use imported components and parts, etc., that hike the price of domestic retailer products for sale and the costs of domestic producer products and the prices of their wholesale sale to domestic businesses and consumers and thereby fuel domestic price inflation, but, nevertheless, are a major source of revenue to the federal government,: are apparent actions or measures to give and pay for tax cuts, possibly the aforementioned ones but most probably the renewal of those scheduled to lapse on corporations and the rich investor class in 2026, though probably not the renewal of those on the middle and lower-income classes previously given in same tax-cut package under the previous Trump Presidency of 01/2017 to 01/2021. In this way, so to say, with one hand he gives federal budget-busting tax cuts and with the other hand he alternatively, via a quasi-national sales tax under the veil of variable tariffs, as opposed to a uniform tariff, on their export-import products of and across tariffed exporter nations to the USA, raises federal tax revenues in an attempt to pay or meaningfully pay for the hugely federal-deficit-increasing tax cuts, in net effect at the cost of domestic price inflation and to the loss of government services agencies and their services and programs for the benefit of the public overall, including an array of public and separate consumer protection services, and the social safety net programs for the underclass and possibly at the loss in the sell off to big-money lobbying and crony interests of federal government, nationally and commonly taxpayer-owned, lands, with the invaluable assets therein and thereon, and other highly valuable national assets of all kinds.

Greed is insatiable and is ruthless, rapacious, barbarous and cannibalistic. Perceive, comprehend and remember the living, unfolding lesson of the returning reign of the cult and regime of greed, whoever can.

The Inadvisability of MAGA-Initiated International Trade Warfare Tariffs


Inadvisability of MAGA-Initiated International Trade Warfare Tariffs

Ultimately, Tariffs on Products of Exporter-Suppliers Sold to Importer-Retailers Are a Pass-on Sales Tax on and Raise the Prices on Those Products Sold by Importer-Retailers and Purchased by Domestic Consumers

Some of the top and obvious marketplace ramifications of the economic mechanics of the imposition of tariffs on imports from China and other [major] export-import competitor nations:

PRC China and the other major nation-state export-import competitors targeted, and their business products punished, with US tariffs on their exports to, imports by US re-sellers into, the US will balance and cancel out the effect of the US tariffs with corresponding, or correspondingly higher, rates-of-charge counter, retaliatory tariffs of their own on US exports to their nations, compared to zero or lower tariff rates-of-charge on imports from respectively zero-tariff and lower-tariff imposing nations. Prices of imports, including components, parts and raw materials, in addition to semifinished and finished products, for all affected lines of products, will increase, and probably comparatively rapidly or abruptly sharply spike for and between the tariff dueling nations. Particularly the smaller producer, and/or lesser international and optionally domestic, market-share and import-beneficiary retailer and consumer, export nation would most lose, though both might lose lopsidedly overall, international consumer market share, reduced domestic consumer purchases, along with net-effect purchasing power with regard to their household and business enterprise incomes, and reduced retailer sales and profitability and consequential, in the aggregate, reduced import-export business sector earnings as well as earnings, or returns, to their investors, as in the import-export sector of the US economy. If importer-retailers absorb the tariffs in whole or large part, they will reduce their profit margins and profitability or do worse to themselves. This economic scenario in the USA would result in widespread business failures and staid acutely diminished sales, revenue and profit declines in the import-export sector of the economy, including for major street, mall and online retailers, and in the respective full unemployment for some and substantial reductions in employment for others of their workforces of import businesses. Housing, automobile, grocer, banking, lending and credit, church tithing, charitable donations and political contributions, among other sectors of the US economy, would be economically hurt by income losses by the import-tariffs' related and driven downturn (in financially weakened going concerns, insolvencies and mass unemployment and reduced employment of business significantly tied to and dependent on imports, especially normally price-cheap imports) in the US economy.

However, when imports constitute the dumping of products at or below the cost of their production, whose effect is or credibly potentially is to harm systemically the viability of an industry or producer-market segment of the receiver nation, then reasonably such imports should be banned if they are not essential to or required for the production needs of domestic producers and the supply of the same kinds of products by domestic suppliers is insufficient. If they are so needed, then tariffs should be levied on them to make their retail prices match the average, above-average or top price of the concerned products found across major or all world markets. Otherwise, when imports, by exporters, with bona-fide prices episodically or in an overall continuum flood the domestic market, import quotas can be set on them and punitive tariffs can be levied on them, per type of product and supplier, with offender suppliers subject to being suspended for a term from exporting directly or indirectly through proxies, on a case-by-case basis rather than doing the same against the export products in large measure or wholly of a foreign nation or its producers in order to protect the solvency, viability and marketplace competitiveness of domestic producers, while averting inter-nation mutually economically damaging trade wars. By law, anti-monopoly or -quasi-monopoly and anti-collusion regulated domestic and international competition between and among similar businesses constrains runaway price rises and inflation to the benefit of consumers and, ideally, bolsters a maximum of market-share participants and stakeholders within and across the different industries and types of business as well as supports the extensive spread or distribution of wealth, and its non-concentration in a relatively few, among the citizenry.

The practical and ethical economics rules and conventions applicable to and operative in the trade relationships between and among advanced technocratic and industrially developed nations do not apply as much with second and apply minimally with third tiered techno-industrially developed, or moderately and weakly developed, nations, as they put the natural resources and largely tenuous employment and subsistence financial means of the populations of the two latter economic and trade tiered nations at high susceptibility to peril and grave economic depredation by first and second tiered such nations. In trade relations of any and all import and export trading nations, of all tiers, in quarterly, semi-annually and annual net revenue and profit results, or proportionally for these based on the sizes of the economies of competitor nations, there will be a hierarchy of best to least achieved performer nations, in which first tiered nations overwhelmingly will tend to be the best materially and in knowledge and skills equipped and productive nations in making and supplying products and in being durably the best performers and most resilient, with fluxes in performance ranking among them in performance reporting cycles, to recovering from slumped or poor performance and remaining competitive within first tiered competitor nations, whereas third tiered nations would not be significantly capable of buying up resources and companies as well as buying off the top and important but lesser governance officials of first or second tiered nations, unlike vice versa for first and less so for second tiered nations of third tiered nations, whose nations, respectively, would be able or better able to also largely economically colonize and devastatingly prey upon or parasitize, even by outright violence, national-forever-debt-slave foreign loans, pretender-righteousness color coups and figurehead, political puppet leaderships, on third tier nations. This latter situation is the case, especially against some Central and South American nations and the nations of black Africa, what is left of Africa as black Africa, inching toward going the way of Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania, etc., though by colonizers and re-settlers who are alien people to Africa from a variety of outside-of-Africa ancestral lands. Rankings in inter-nation and international trade achiever-performance positions among first-tier trade nations will inevitably shuffle and change over the financial performance reporting cycles and across the years -- in democratic trade relationships between these, there can be no monopoly nation or permanent or lasting solo same dominant nation.

We must be proactively mindful of both Murphy's law and the Peter principle, or woe betide us like with the Covid-19 pandemic and its havoc on the US economy and economies of the other major nations of the world of humanity: Economic policy of the first Donald Trump administration - Wikipedia , Donald Trump Built a National Debt So Big (Even Before the Pandemic) That It’ll Weigh Down the Economy for Years — ProPublica , Trump’s Trade Wars with China and Europe Have Made Bad Agriculture Policies Worse (foreignpolicy.com) , Trump Tariffs & Biden Tariffs: Economic Impact of the Trade War (taxfoundation.org) , Did Trump’s tariffs benefit American workers and national security? (brookings.edu) , How Trump’s Tariffs Really Affected the U.S. Job Market | Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

     The adverse economic effects of the Covid-19 pandemic muddled the distinction between them and the mounting and concurrent adverse effects on the US economy of the first Trump Presidency's wide-ranging tariffs on imports. Strongly indicated within the writings of the aforementioned citations is that former POTUS Trump was more interested in and focused on the circa $79,000,000,000.00 that his tariffs generated than the short-term circa well more than $400,000,000,000.00 in business and job income losses in the US economy, apart from their longer-term losses, that resulted from his concurrent Covid-19 initially mismanaged pandemic and policy of large tariffs on imports, especially those exported from China, and loss of the export of US agricultural products by the agricultural sector of the US economy to China.

Considering that past behavior, unless redemptively or corruptively modified in the interim for better or worse, is the best predictor of future behavior, here is a click-on news commentary of warning on the US economy by a reputable and credible financial market expert of what may credibly come to pass for the US economy under the new, second Trump Presidency, of whom the first Trump Presidency left the dream economy it inherited from the Democratic Party Obama Presidency totally wrecked, for which the MAGA portion and a significant politically mixed other portion of the voting electorate forgetfully, ignorantly and facetiously blamed its/his successor Democratic Party Biden Presidency for it, whereas the Biden Presidency restored in full the US economy and, along with the Federal Reserve Bank, its inflation rate down to virtually the default minimal inflationary interest rate of 2%, and, moreover, made the US economy the currently leading economy in the world — though it did not restore prices to those of the pre-inflationary period preceding the soaring price inflationary period, which historically has never happened, brought about by the first Trump Presidency and whereof then President Trump, before he took office as US president in his first term, had a history of various of his businesses having been in bankruptcy 6 times and himself of having been successfully sued for legally liable financial misconduct against others, Anthony Scaramucci Predicts a Market Crash Under Trump — Here’s How To Prepare If He’s Right (yahoo.com) .

Tariffs do not take place in a one-way action environment and relationship with other nations and the nations of the world, as in one of negative output and impact on others by oneself without a return, or response, and impact action, or counteraction, on oneself from and by negatively affected others by oneself, the initiator-instigator of the negativity or negative exchange and transaction relationship. We must remember that indeed tariffs ultimately are a sales tax, passed by the exporter-suppliers onto the retailers and consumers of the imports, which hikes the costs and prices of the imported, if all not all, by side effect, products and services for sale.

The Main Real Reason for Why Donald Trump Was Elected US President and VP Kamala Harris Was Not in the 11-05-2024 US Presidential Election


The Main Real Reason for Why Donald Trump Was Elected US President and VP Kamala Harris Was Not in the 11-05-2024 US Presidential Election


The main reason for Donald Trump’s election as US president in the US presidential election of Tuesday, 11-05-2024 is the rampant lie that Trump and the MAGA mass media propagated that businesses and the households of the USA were economically better off under the Trump Presidency than the following Biden Presidency, whereas in fact that of Trump's mismanaged Covid-19 pandemic crisis resulted in the collapse of the US economy overall, including mass business losses in income and profitability and in failure closures, worker unemployment, residential dislocations, extreme shortages in groceries supply and in sparce and empty groceries shelves, etc., in grocery stores and soaring inflationary, intractable high prices on virtually all products and services beginning for virtually the whole year of 2020 of the Trump Presidency.

As newly elected and inaugurated US president in January of 2017, Trump inherited the dream economy of and from the outgoing Obama Presidency, in which now US President Joe Biden was vice president. When Donald Trump takes office as newly elected US president again in January of 2025, Donald Trump will again inherit the best performing economy of the nations of the world, restored by the Biden Presidency from the economic shambles left by the previous Trump Presidency, though voters largely, in the majority, wrongly and ignorantly blame the Biden Presidency for the soaring inflationary high prices and increased such rates initiated in the previous Trump Presidency, rates of inflation the Biden Presidency along with the Federal Reserve Bank have driven down to the normal 2% per annum rate, though not the increased prices, which historically never return to the lower prices of a past, pre-inflationary period, and employment, and business as well as the stock market performance, plus, have risen stably to record levels and prices have steadied under the Biden Presidency.

Trump and the MAGA GOP will claim ownership and credit for the good economies Trump inherits as US president and blame, as may an amnesiac majority of voters, his successors for the wrecked economies he and his presidential team leave to his successor [clean-up] presidents of the USA. Based on my reading, listening and viewing of the mass media news reports on the US presidential election before and since election day of 11-05-2024, pre-election [public opinion or political] polls consistently found that the majority of eligible voters consistently rated Donald Trump and his presidency a better manager of the economy than Joe Biden and the Biden presidency and in the 2024 US presidential election exit polls of voters, a majority of the voters surveyed [delusionally] said explicitly or to the effect that they voted for Trump because prices were too high and unaffordable under the Biden Administration and that they were [economically] better off under Trump (and the GOP) than Biden (and the Democrats) as president.

When US presidential candidate Trump threw out his vote-getting (for attracting to him millions of more voters) political dog-bone, vote-bait, promises, successively in the few months before the presidential election, of no taxes on tip income, Social Security pensions and overtime pay, I knew they made him formidable, across most voter demographics, regardless of any bad he said or did at any time. Probably, in view of the stated foregoing informational context, a majority of folks, across the demographic categories -- with Trump peeling off record percentages of Latino and Black males, less concerned about female reproductive rights or even protecting democracy, as a priority issue, than their personal economic considerations, and Native Americans, as well as probably Social Security pension retirees and those, men and women, near retirement (also having little vested concern in the reproductive rights of young females) in increased support — voted for Trump because they thought he offered them a better, juicier deal personally-economically than VP Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party. Indicatively, personal election-contingent economic considerations were the top priorities deciding the votes of these cross-over, independent and swing voters who voted for Donald Trump.

Apologetically, the relevant news references are not inserted as online hyperlinks or annotated in a list as a matter of selfish convenience to myself, as I have virtually had enough of this matter and for a while want relieved from it. This is a reflective quickie writing.

Political Sleight of Hand and Remember, Remember, Remember Reality, Please, Before It's Too Late -- an immediately updated vitally-important must read for voters in the US presidential election of Tuesday, 11-05-2024


Political Sleight of Hand and Remember, Remember, Remember Reality, Please, Before It's Too Late 

— an immediately updated vitally-important must read for voters in the US presidential election of Tuesday, 11-05-2024


Why would an individual pollster and political analyst among many accuse the many others of pressing a finger down on their consensus polling data on the candidates in the US presidential election competition to the favor of Kamala Harris by one point within the margin of error or to show a virtual tie between the candidates and himself contrarily claim a landslide win for Trump? He would do so to get mass attention-grabbing reads of his written election news commentary in major part to temper down the harsh and negative rhetorical attacks, the bad news and bad publicity, against Trump and to have his Trump-favorable commentary and nudging of cautious silence toward Trump viralized. It makes sense that he would be doing this with the ultimate goal in mind of getting the adoption of his controversial, contrarian commentary as belief by much of the public that is followed by its/their sudden mass spread of this maverick conclusion as an expectation that could and might, as a matter of caution and self-concern by others en masse, hush bad publicity and vote-losing rhetorical attacks and endorsements against Trump by socially high-profile figures and organizations of influence otherwise critical of Trump, to a desired significantly beneficial political effect for him in a close election, according to a consensus of the major election polls, in the last few presidential campaign days leading up to the US presidential election of 11/05/2024.

However, it has newly come to my attention in my listening to radio broadcast interviews of objectively-minded political science professors and reputable professional political analysts that other minor, known-MAGA-partisan pollsters have been making the same claim online and in the pro-MAGA broadcasts as that of the hereinabove referred to mainstream election pollster-analyst of a landslide presidential election victory for Trump, a wrong MAGA-partisan private-pollsters polls-based previous election forecast which they (the interviewees) said the same or like folks made in advance, via same communications media channels, of the 2020 US presidential election actual defeat of Trump and win of current POTUS Joe Biden on election day then of 11-03-2020. In essence, they proposed that these dubious private polls of the past may have been the strategic, fallback, motivational groundwork that set the stage in advance of that election for MAGA-movement attempts to overturn it, if it resulted in a defeat of Trump’s reelection bid, which it did, by various means, such as mass mobilization action of aggressive MAGA political activists, legislatively and administratively within GOP-dominated state legislatures and GOP-MAGAs in the houses of Congress and judicially, by state and federal courts, including the GOP-membership-dominated US Supreme Court, all tried but comprehensively failed means to overturn the election of Biden as US president and retain the Trump Presidency. They say, in overall effect, that the Trump-MAGA team have probably learned from this previous thorough failure to alternatively win the US presidency in contravention to traditional federal Constitutional- and statutory-law institutional protocols and means and this time may be using such partisanly private and dubious election polls and bogus forecasts disseminated on online social media platforms and in right-wing mass media broadcasts, such as Fox, etc., as a same fallback strategy in the event of another defeat of Donald Trump in his current 2024 presidential election bid to overturn a win of that election by current US Vice President Kamala Harris but one with a much improved, better and more effective overturn or insurrection “game.”

All the while the Trump campaign and its compatriots on the sidelines, including those in the mass communications media, illusorily misrepresent the former Trump Presidency as having been an economic success story in which business and households were better off then economically than they are now under the Biden Presidency. It is a fallacious good-old-days mirage of a Trumpian national economic success story in that in less than half way into the second two years of Trump's four-year term as US president, our nation, and the nations of almost the whole of humanity worldwide was/were stricken by the Covid-19 pandemic, which was mismanaged by Trump and his presidential administration by first delaying announcing it publicly, then downplaying its significant danger and delaying taking societal action to contend with it nationally until the casualties from it soared, which resulted in a nationwide economic shutdown, a national shortage of toilet paper, the emptying of and lasting shortage in supplies of groceries in grocery stores, comprehensive spikes in the prices of groceries, extending to soaring price inflation, often seller-gouging price push inflation, of nearly all goods and services and retention of increased prices, and in mass job losses and unemployment, all the product of the soaring-inflation, economically failed Trump Presidency, like his past 6 business bankruptcies.

The Biden Presidency has been the rescue and clean-up crew of the dream economy inherited, and trashed, by former POTUS Trump from the Obama Presidency, in which Biden was vice president, and has restored record-level high employment to our nation, competently managed its takeover in handling the national Covid-19 pandemic and phased our nation out of its crisis status, and it, together with the Federal Reserve Bank, has substantially reduced the rate of inflation it inherited from the Trump Presidency.

However, the economist Paul Krugman explained that never following periods of soaring price inflation have prices returned to what they were before the periods of soaring price inflation, which is the way economic history works. Prices returning to what they were before a period of soaring price inflation would not happen (with the somewhat exception of modestly volatile gasoline prices for automobiles in the short term) if our economy were managed by the economic titans of the past Adam Smith, Alexander Hamilton, Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes, John Kenneth Galbraith and Milton Friedman, as well as by the financial titans Mansa Musa, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.

It is the deplorables and garbage brains of the Trump team and cult who blame the Biden clean-up crew for the mess the gaslighting, mind-wiping Trump Presidency and political team created by dereliction, mismanagement and incompetent governance and for impossibly not returning the economy's post-inflation higher prices to pre-inflation lower prices. Don’t hold your breath hoping and waiting for the latter to happen.

(The aforementioned is in regard to dishonest, mendacious, demagogic doofus Donald Trump and character-flipped J.D. Vance and their insurrectionist, anti-US Constitution, anti-democracy, neo-Confederacy, neo-Nazi, heretical-oxymoronic-Christian-nationalism MAGA-mob cult).

A demagogue is a person, or plural of such, who uses inflammatory language and actions to socially demonize, and stoke fear, phobia, hysteria and animosity toward and against, different or outsider others as well as to scapegoat another or others -- in effect, undertaking or campaigning to poison minds collectively against them and socially and politically enemyize, disfavor and marginalize them -- so as thereby to exercise and gain or secure mass, or populist, chauvinist influence and power. Ultimately, power is control, which when possessed by a demagogue is disposed to become abused and unaccountable control.

This article also reveals that when Donald Trump was US president, he once remarked to his chief of staff retired US general John Kelly that he needed [Nazi] generals like [Nazi Der Fuhrer] Hitler had [in WWII]. The Bill of Rights Constitutional United States of America needs the kinds of generals, including such as of recently retired, former US Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley of our time, and armed forces that the USA and then US President Franklin D. Roosevelt had against and who and which thoroughly defeated Nazi-nation state dictator Adolph Hitler's generals and military, which a US President Kamala Harris (unlike a subversive and traitorous, NAZI-sympathizer Donald Trump) would opt for and have for the USA.

Christianity was an almost entirely pacifist, altruist-love practicing and proselytizing branch (the New Testament) of Judaism founded by Jesus the Messiah and based on his teachings, way of life and the dictums of his afterlife appearances to particularly his apostles Peter and John, of altruistic love, caring mutuality and fellowship among all peoples, all tongues and nations (even in apostle John’s bleak chapter Revelations of the New Testament, Jesus admonishes that those whose names will be written into the book of life (to have heavenly eternal life) will be based on their good deeds). Initially, it was, after the death of Jesus by crucifixion, the Apostolic Universal (Catholic) Church, until it later became the adopted [institutional] religion of the Roman Empire under Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, after which time it became the Roman Catholic Church. Protestant and Eastern Orthodox Christianity branched from Roman Catholicism; Eastern Orthodox Christianity, including Greek, Coptic, Russian, etc., branched from it long before Protestantism. At root and fundamentally, true Christianity has nothing to do with racial, ethnic or other demographic identity and supremacy nor with provincialism or nationalism of any kind, which are all antithetical to true Christianity. Christianity originated in the Middle East and first spread to Asia Minor, Ionia and Greece, West Asia, Egypt and Ethiopia, not necessarily strictly in that order.

Islam became the predominate religion of these geographies, except for Greece and Ethiopia, as a result of the Arab military conquest of them, and other geographies, following the death of the de-facto first caliph of Islam and Islamic Arabia the Prophet Muhammad, 571 to 632 CE, the founder of Islam and a military conqueror and unifier of Arabia in the decades following the death of his wealthy-merchant, well-educated and highly religious first wife Kadijah bint Khuwaylid, 554 to 619 CE, 17 years older than him and his employer, of a wealthy and powerful merchant Arabian nuclear family and extended family. The Prophet Muhammad left behind himself in life upon his death, as its until then leader, one of the most well equipped, trained, battle-seasoned and powerful of armies in the world. Arabia itself was a province of the western division of the Roman Empire before the fall of the hegemony of the once-mighty western division of the Roman Empire, and its armed forces were well trained and armed by the Roman military long before the birth of the Prophet Muhammad. Furthermore, its armed forces were considered formidable by their Roman political-military overlords. But after the fall of rulership jurisdiction of the said Roman Empire, there was infighting within and among the armed forces and warlords of Arabia, until the growing and growingly successful armed forces of the Prophet Muhammad eventually conquered and unified them all under his command and authority, with the political and probable financial help of the family clan of his deceased first wife into which she was born.)
