The Obama Legacy under THREAT - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

The price of losing an election is seeing your Presidential legacy thrown in the bin, that is why Presidents entering their 2nd terms want their candidate to win the election.   Nearly all if not ALL of the executive action by President Obama will be thrown out, the Iran deal could be heading for the bin also.   The Democrats have not helped themselves in the Senate, they changed the rules as to allow 51 votes needed to pass a Cabinet nominee, the threshold for the Supreme Court is still 60, but that rule could be changed by the Republicans.   A Trump Presidency, it is still hard to write that, if I had written in 2015 that Trump would be the next POTUS I would have been laughed out of blog writing.  On the other hand in 2016 I did do a bet in the bookies that Trump would win, my political gut was telling me something that my brain could not accept.  Thus we have 19 days to go in till President Trump is in the Oval Office.

Trump Questions Russian Allegations - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

One has to question what do the Russians have on the Donald Trump, it is known that he has considerable assets in Russia, but do the old KGB have anything on the Trump, that sorley can be the only reason that the Trump is being stubborn about not believing the allegations that the Russians hacked the Democratic Party and HRC Campaign.    Who goes out on the line to protect President Putin in less they are under pressure or really has some information that no one knows about!!  This blog is starting to think the Democrats are right, never thought I would say that, the Senate should investigate the Trump links in Russia.    This is a fishy story, and the more that Trump is stubborn the more he is suspect.

Are the Clinton Days OVER ? - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

This will go down like a lead balloon in the New York home of the Clintons, Bill Clinton could say that he won two terms as President, he knows something about winning, he told Al Gore to look after his home State, the Vice - President did not and then we had the Bush 43 Presidency with 9/11, Afghanistan,  Iraq and the War on Terror.   In 2016 the old Hound Dog told the HRC campaign to focus on the white, working class, the campaign did not listen and thus we have Trump Presidency to come.  If the Democratic Party goes LEFT, it will be out of power for years, the rust belt States are not going to elect a Communist just to please the New York Times liberal elite.   The Democratic Party is in a mess, were are the new JFK's or even Bill Clinton.

Terror ATTACK in Istanbul - Turkey - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

The New Year starts with a terrorist attack in Turkey on a New Year celebration event, while in Germany a Christmas Market was hit by a truck, it never seems to end.  The new US President has promised that he will destroy Daesh with the the help of the Russians.   The US need ground troops in Syria and Iraq to smash Daesh, air power and special forces will not do the trick, Mosul still has not fallen and Daesh are hitting other Cities in Iraq.   Time for a real 100% onslaught on Daesh, let finish them off while they are weak.

North Korean Missile Threat - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

Thus the new year starts with the threat of North Korea getting its hands on a working ICBM, what will the new Trump Administration do about this threat, as a candidate Trump suggested that Asian allies of the US get the bomb themselves, that it was a natural progression.    The LAST thing Asia needs is more Countries with the bomb, one can only hope that China places pressure on North Korea not to go that far, if it does then it can be argued that Japan and South Korea have no choice but to go nuclear.   TESTING times for 2017.
