** 01-Nov-2020 World View: Tough luck
Lol! To start, see Proverbs 16:18.
The reason that your comment is so funny is that you have absolutely
no idea what I would consider lucky.
So first off, at my age hopefully I won't be around much longer. So
I'll be a lot luckier than you, because you'll be alive and I'll be
dead.
Second, "be careful what you wish for." The evidence of criminal
behavior by the Biden family has become enormous in the last three
weeks, and won't go away if Biden wins. There's an FBI investigation,
but even without that, there's enough information in public for the
public investigation to be self-sustaining.
Biden would also have to deal with continuing antifa-blm fascist
violence and with the Wuhan Coronavirus crisis, and it's doubtful that
either he or Kamala has the management skills to deal with such
crises.
Third, as I've said many times, it's a principle of Generational
Dynamics that major decisions are made by the people, not by the
politicians. Putting aside the rhetoric and massive criminal
corruption of the Democrats, the country's policies won't be very
different than under a second Trump term. In particular, all that new
green deal stuff is so idiotic and laughable that it won't go
anywhere. Biden might get some things done on the margins, like
removing some incentives for oil drilling, but nothing more.
A good example is Barack Obama, whose planned policies were just as
idiotic as Biden's, but he got nothing done and, in the end, putting
aside the rhetoric and the massive corruption of the Democrats, the
country's policies under Obama were little different than under a
third Bush term.
I've written about this many times, but it's worth repeating now.
Obama had plans to try to bring peace to the world through his
unopposed policies.
In June 2008, he said, "I am absolutely certain that generations from
now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was
the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to
the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to
slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a
war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best
hope on Earth."
At the time he said this, I thought it was just the usual crazy
nonsense crap coming from politicians, but I was shocked later that
Obama actually believed it. In the 2008 campaign, Obama said that he
was going to heal the world as soon as he took office. He would be
guided by facts, not like President Bush, who had been guided by
ideology and ignored facts. He would cure global warming, close
Guantánamo island prison, become friendly with Iran and North Korea,
bring a two-state solution to Palestinians and Israelis, beat the
Taliban and al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, impose strict gun control
policies, reflate the real estate and stock market bubbles and, of
course, provide universal health care.
Obama accomplished none of those goals. He couldn't even accomplish
the simplest one -- closing Guantánamo -- which you'd think he'd be
able to do easily. But no, he couldn't. And Biden's policies are
even more idiotic than Obama's, and won't go anywhere except to
generate controversy. But who knows? Maybe Biden will get a
Nobel Peace Prize anyway.
The above is particularly true if Biden is forced to leave office
and Kamala takes over. She's a total loon, extremely divisive,
and very unpopular.
For me, a Biden/Kamala presidency will be as incompetent as the Obama
presidency, but Biden won't have Obama's charisma (or Bill Clinton's
charisma). I know that I had to be very careful when criticizing
Obama's policies, because anyone criticizing Obama was immediately
called a racist. That won't be an issue for me or anyone else
criticizing Biden's incompetent policies.
It's true that I do favor Trump over Biden, but that's because Trump
is a much better manager than Biden. Trump's management of the Wuhan
Coronavirus pandemic has been outstanding. He got vaccines and
therapeutics developed in a few months that normally (or under Obama
or Biden) would have taken years. Trump was even congratulated at
times by the governors of NY and California.
The major example of Obama's management "skills" was his management of
the development of the Obamacare disaster. As I've written many
times, what happened on the afternoon of October 1, 2013, was that
President Obama stood up at a press conference to launch Obamacare.
He did so without the vaguest clue that the Healthcare.gov web site
had been a disaster for hours. It was a total farce, and Obama made a
complete fool out of himself. As I wrote in my 2015 analytical
article, Obamacare was a Rube Goldberg invention filled with massive
corruption, criminality and incompetence. Obama had thrown something
like $900 million dollars at a $50 million problem and assumed that no
management was required. That's how stupid and incompetent Obama was.
If Trump had been in charge of Obamacare development, he would have
handled it the way he handled the pandemic. He would have provided
only $30 million instead of over $500 million, until more was needed,
and he would have been on the phone every day to the consulting firms
to make sure that development was on time. On the morning of
October 1, 2013, Trump would have known exactly what the status was,
rather than making a fool out of himself like Obama.
Just to take one example that I discussed in my 2015 article. CGI
Corp. was responsible for the Massachusetts web site. Obama gave them
$200 million, even though it was really only a $10 million project.
CGI Corp saw its job as finding ways to spend $200 million. They
hired programmers who couldn't even write a memo, let alone a computer
program. They defrauded the government by faking test results and
lying about deadlines. They fired the one whistleblower who
complained about what was going on. On Oct 1, 2013, nothing worked.
Another firm had to take over, and all of CGI's code had to be thrown
out as worthless garbage. $200 million had been wasted on nothing.
Trump would never let anything like that happen, but that's standard
fare for Obama's corruption and incompetence.
Even worse, Obamacare confiscated over $716 billion in the Medicare
insurance fund to provide funding for Obamacare entities. This is
money that workers have been paying into the fund for decades, and now
it's all gone. That's criminal incompetence.
Will Biden/Kamala be as incompetent as Obama? I don't know.
I haven't mentioned foreign policy, but Obama appointed that
ridiculous clown John Kerry to be secretary of state, and we watched
(and I documented) as he stumbled from one disaster to the next. By
contrast, Trump has managed the situations with North Korea and China
very well, forcing them to live up to their commitments, rather than
just letting the commitments slide as Clinton, Bush and Obama did, and
Trump has also gotten three Arab countries to sign peace deals with
Israel, which Obama never could. But hey! Obama got the Nobel
Peace Prize. That's what's important, isn't it?
Will Biden/Kamala have any foreign policy skills? I don't know.
There's an ironic result of the Democrats' illegal spying on the
Trump campaign. Mueller spent tens of millions of dollars paying
his gang of Democrats to investigate Trump, and after three years
they found nothing. All they did was prove that Trump is probably
the most honest president in the history of the country.
Are Biden/Kamala honest? We already know that Biden is a crook,
and that Kamala does what AOC tells her to do.
So you've had it easy for the last four years. Just sit back and make
truly idiotic comments about Trump, calling him Hitler and Milosevic
and such, and repeat everything that the shithead Adam Schiff says,
but if Biden wins then you'll have to defend his criminality and
incompetence, which will be a lot harder for you.
I, on the other hand, can just criticize one idiotic Biden failure
after another. So who's the lucky person now?
I have an idea. Why don't you start a new forum thread: "Let's
make fun of Biden while we still can, before he goes to jail
or dies of dementia"?
