The Democratic Party is furious that Miller has been appointed the NEW Chief of Staff, as Miller is tough on immigration and that makes Democrats furious, the extreme left wants open borders, this move my Trump is saying he is still President and will be fo the next two half years.  The Democrats will be starting investigations as soon as they gain power, Trump will have real opposition to him now! 

Another False Dawn from Trump on the Ukraine - Update

CNN: Reports the following, " US President Donald Trump has promised a new security deal for Ukraine that “might involve all of Europe,” "

Let's Get Real:

I feel a knife in my back, any new deal will benefit the Russians and not the Ukraine and not Europe.  NATO Countries should be very worried, Eastern Europe and the Baltic States should be on ALERT, Trump is about to sell then out, the coalition of the willing should need to back Kyiv, trouble brewing folks.

Changes at the White House after Mid Terms - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 6.58pm post the following, " Trump announces new White House chief of staff after midterm defeats "

Let's Get Real:

This is the Trump we know, its taken a few hours for the shock of Mid Terms to get through in Donald World.  The present Chief of Staff will stay in White House, moving to the political area.   The one person can't sack or move is him, nice to see reality has gotten through Donald blinkers! Even the First Lady stated that POTUS would not listen to the TRUTH.  The President knows he is lame duck, but after Reagan lost the Senate in 1986, his VP become President in 1988. A third Reagan term, thus Trump should want to achieve that for his VP, it will take a lot of rebuilding the Republican Party for 2028, at least know Trump will have a real opposition in a Democratic Comgress.  

Newsom for President in 2018 - Update

BBC News: Reports the following,  " California Governor Gavin Newsom has commuted the death sentences of all 548 people on death row in the state, changing them instead to life in prison. "

Let's Get Real:

This is purely political by Newsom, he is running in 2028, the left of the Democratic Party will be impressed! If you want to impress them!  The Republicans will be happy, they will go on that the Governor is weak on crime, Newsom has stated he won't run if former former VP Harris decideds to rum again.  The there is AOC, well known as a leftie.  This is just the start, you will hear more names, 2028 Presidential race is just beginning.

VP Vance on Iran and the Mid Terms - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 4.16 post the following, " JD Vance says it's 'obvious to almost everyone' that war on Iran is 'the reason we lost' midterms "

Let's Get Real:

Thus VP Vance declares his candidacy for President in 2028, putting some distance between himself and POTUS.  This might be a mistake in the long term for Vance who wants Trump to support him in 2028.  The perfect VP, Bush 41 only said he was out of the loop for Iran - Contra, but was seen as Reagan's 3rd Term in 1988, thus winning the Presidential election.  This move by Vance tells the runners and riders in the Republican Party to start getting their campaigns in order, Secretary of State Rubio and Senator Cruz should start to visit Iowa and New Hampshire over the next few months, Vance has distanced himself from POTUS, thus what will Rubio and Cruz say about Iran, Trump likes loyalty, so more the distance the more Trump will get annoyed by the lime light not being on him!! The Democrats have a problem and to many candidates and some of them are very left wing such as AOC, she will not do well in the fly over States.  Iowa caucus and the South Carolina primary will be a real test for some like AOC.  Thus the floodgates are open for 2028.

The Presidential Veto - Update

Sky News: Reports the following in its 5.01am post the following, " Could the final two years of Trump boil down to one word: Veto? "

Let's Get Real:

President Obama stated he had phone and a pen when Congressional results did not go his way, thus we have the Presidential VETO, the Democrats had a great night but not enough to override a Presidential VETO.   Thus the Trump Oval will have to show he can make deals with Democrats, this will be a test, can Mr Deal make deals with Democrats in Congress, who will start to investigate Trump and his family for corruption while in OFFICE.  The Democrats will have to be careful, they do not want to hobble their own nominee in 2028, that cycle starts today.
