LETTER TO THE EDITOR / OPINION
Trump’s loss — Biden’s win — America’s future
Now President Trump knows how Hillary felt in 2016. He confidently believed he would win — yet he lost. The public gave Trump the benefit of any doubt for four years, and he did prove himself a deal maker, if not a politician. Why did Trump lose and Biden win?
“Ill-suited to be president because of his temperament,” says Anthony Scaramucci in a television interview about the Trump tenure. After only ten days the former, short-lived communications director for President Trump was fired.
Setting aside Scaramucci’s disdain, even setting aside allegations of national Presidential voting fraud that may never be proven (in Georgia in particular a tainted election with Dominion Voting Systems), I would analyze the results as “Too much Trump.” Trump was hoisted on his own petard — his ego. He won’t admit it. His cohorts would not admit it for fear of being likewise “fired.”
In 2016, a great number of Americans relished (and still do), Trump’s brashness and crassness, his transparency, a refreshing difference from politicians of the status quo by government, the establishment, the Deep State, the “swamp” control. After four unrelenting years of his personalizing of the office, however, Trump’s haranguing, tweeting on Twitter apparently got to his admiring public. He did lose the popular vote in 2016.

Otherwise, his campaign strategy to win the states with the appropriate number of electoral votes did pay off to secure him the presidency. The Dems learned a lesson from that and beat Trump using his erstwhile game plan. Also, the popular vote for Biden was a record turn-out at over 80 million in 2020.
Will Trump continue to tweet on Twitter? Of course, that’s Trump. But will it have the same impact now that he is no longer in office? I think not; over 80 million Americans have told him to shut down and shut up. So where does President Trump go from here? To enhance his future plans, Trump should take voters’ advice. Retreat to Mar A Lago. Circle the family limos and plot a superb strategy to win back the 2024 Presidency, perhaps with a Trump.

In contrast, some 80 million Americans apparently want a politician; enter President-elect Joe Biden…forty-seven years in Washington as a senator from Delaware for 36 years, then eight years as vice president, followed by three years running for president; a lawyer turned career politician, typical credentials to serve in the leadership of the United States of America. So, what could a Biden/Harris’s America be like in contrast to America under Trump’s? How will Joe build America back better as the head, if not the brain, of the Democratic Party in America?
Biden will be left with the China covid-19 virus pandemic. He can do no better than did Trump to suppress the deadly virus, save to mandate “patriotic” wearing of face masks. Follow the stats and listen to science, all the same steps Trump took to boost American’s spirit and positive outlook since January 2020.
We can only surmise Biden’s agenda based on what we believe Joe committed to in procuring support from AO-C, Bernie Sanders, Black Lives Matter, and the far-left terrorists. Let me count the planks of the Democrats’ platform.
Biden will inherit a stock market that may go into 2021 at over 30,000 points. Inflation is around 1.20%. Unemployment stands at 6.9%, due in part to the pandemic. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for the 3rd quarter of 2020 is 33%. Not a shabby financial legacy from Trump which Trump did not inherit from Obama.

More troops are back stateside. A Middle East peace accord. Trade deals to replace poorly orchestrated ones by former administrations. “Made in America” the edict of our citizens. Racial injustice yet to be resolved.
Bigger government and higher taxes are two salient possibilities. Potential diminution of our rights under the First and Second Amendments to the Constitution. Weakened local and national security allowing for more sanctuary cities and the release of criminals. How long will the wall stand to fortify our Southern frontier?
Extension of the welfare state: free money ($1,000 monthly), the forgiveness of loan debts for college education, wholesale acceptance of illegal aliens into the economy. Trillions of tax-payer dollars to destroy then reconstruct housing to satisfy the hue and cry of environmentalists.
“Let them eat plants!” rather than cake/cows will be the chant of the “squad” and its followers who want to dispose of beef, cars and other creatures that emit carbon dioxide/methane into the atmosphere.
A cancel culture that threatens to eradicate our past to “compensate and make reparations” for the “sins of our fathers” and assuage the sensitivities of the squeaking wheels that whine to be salved. Tear down monuments and statues and rename sports teams, streets, and the nomenclature of anything dealing with the discovery and development of this country. (Sorry, can’t use America.)
I am considering instigating an “impeach 46” movement as soon as possible, if I can tap an outraged enough Republican. I cannot wait to listen in on Biden’s phone calls from the Communist triumvirate: Xi, Jong-un, and Putin and bring their “conversating” before the House. Republicans had better win back representative seats in 2022, so Trump can be re-seated in 2024.
