The Impeachment Trial of former President Donald Trump - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " The second impeachment trial of Donald Trump will begin next month after an agreement reached between Senate Democrats and Republicans. "

Lets Get Real:

This blog would not be surprised  if the Trumpster turned up for his TRIAL, there is no need for him to attended by the rules of impeachment, but the TRUMP will love the fact that he can take notes and looks the Republican Senators in their eyes, and also to remind these elite voters that his base can either mean a future in the US Senate or a hash been of US politics, only the uber liberal CNN covering what you are going to say.   Those thinking of running in 2024 do not want to Trump angry with them, there might be many candidates, and the Trump base might be the difference between winning and losing.  The American Presidential cycle gets started early by every election, thus candidates might be visiting IOWA and New Hampshire before the 2022 Mid terms.  If and its a BIG IF, the Senate confirms the impeachment then Trump can not seek public office again, his base directed by him might support another candidate, thus who are the 17 Senate Republicans will risk their political career to say GUILT when it comes to Trump. 

Biden and Iran - How to Appease Biden style - Biden Era

Giving POTUS the benefit the doubt might end sooner than I expected !

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 12.46 that the new Biden Press Secretary has stated the following on Iran, "  Also asked about the Iran Nuclear Deal, which Donald Trump pulled out of, she said that Iran "must resume compliance".  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Biden Administration starts its dance of appeasing Iran, one can see POTUS lifting some of the Trump sanctions, in this he will be helped by a WEAK Europe and the UK, and then allowing some nuclear material by Iran, Tehran will of course break any deal with secret operations that will only come to light by Israeli intelligence, the US can never match the Mossad when it comes to spy craft in the Middle East.  Thus in a couple of years, Tehran will have the bomb and it will be re - run of the North Korea problem.  Tehran will sabre rattle knowing that the West can not act, due to the fear of how Tehran will react.  This game has been played before, if it was not serious and dangerous it would be funny.  History does repeat itself. 

The Trump COMEBACK starts - the Trump Presidential Library - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 01.15am post the following, " Now online: the Donald Trump Presidential Library "

Lets Get Real:

That was a very fast turn around by the former President, normally it takes a few weeks for a former President and his new staff to get the social media wing open.  Let's remember one thing folks, this is about the Impeachment Trial and the thought that Trump will in run again 2024.  At the trial the Trump team will make it clear  that it will cost for Republican Senators to support a guilty plea, it could be the end of their political careers, a Trumpian wrath is the last thing a Republican Senator needs if he or she are facing re-election in 2022.  Also those thinking about running in 2024 will not want to be seen as knifing the former President after he leaves office, if he is found guilty Trump will never be allowed to run for public office again.  In a odd way it might suit the Democrats to have Trump on the ticket next time, of course that depends if POTUS ( Biden ) runs again, the VP must be looking at 2024 as her chance to be come President.  The political cycle never ends in the US, thank goodness of the US Constitution. 

Winter of Peril - President Biden's Inaugural Speech - Biden Era

The White House: President Biden stated the following in his speech, " We will press forward with speed and urgency, for we have much to do in this winter of peril and possibility.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Biden inaugural address called for UNITY, but for a US President, its problems from abroad that can define a Presidency, just ask Jimmy Carter with Iran and Afghanistan, and even President Obama with his red lines over Syria.  The TV cameras showed one can assume Bill Clinton falling asleep, okay the speech was not up there with JFK, Ronald Reagan or Barack Obama, but it was a decent enough speech.   Even President Obama seem to close his eyes, it could have been the weather. This blog did not watch the Inaugural live, it has watched every such event since 1981, the blogger expected a boring speech and event, and thank goodness it turned out to be that.  The Times of LONDON reported in its hard print version that the North Koreans could test the new Administration with a test of its missile from a sub.  One the one hand the people of North Korea are starving, but the regime is testing sub launch missiles, then Iran will demand that the US lifts some of its sanctions before it goes back to the Obama Iran deal.  As stated by this blog, the Biden Administration will appease Iran, Israel must keep a careful eye on Tehran, if POTUS will not secure the security of Israel then Israel must.  As a wise old UK PM once said to a junior Minister ( there were all men then ) when a junior minister asked what could go wrong, " Events boy, Events ".   Thus the Biden Administration will be challenged from abroad, that could define the Biden Era. 

Trump CELEBRATES himself and his one term - End of the Trump Era/New Biden Era

Sky News: Reports " Donald Trump's farewell address: 'Our movement is only just beginning'....He said he has built "the greatest economy", secured Middle East peace deals, got NATO members to pay more, and stood up to China. "

Lets Get Real:

Folks you know what is coming, there will the Trump Presidential memoires, how he won the greatest victory ever 2016, NOT TRUE, Reagan had 44 States in 1980 and in his re-election he won 49 States.  Then comes the Presidential Library, it will be BIG, biggest ever, that his how Trump will frame it, that he has the best record for a one term President ever, not true, he did not grow in office, he defaced the Oval Office with his rantings and his well let's be kind, he was economic with the truth, also let's not forget the four hundred thousand death due to COVID - 19.  Then we shall come to the HIS NEW reality show, he will groom a candidate for a run in 2024 or of course he might run himself if he is not found not guilty by the US Senate, the Trump needs the limelight that is his air, he will be back, bit like Dracula, you think its over but the man keeps coming back. 

The LAST Presidential Speech by President Trump - End of the Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " US President Donald Trump has made his farewell address before leaving office, saying: "We did what we came to do - and so much more."  "

Lets Get Real:

The Trumpster slapped himself on the back for a great Presidency, a one term President, who joins the list of Presidents who failed to win re-election was impeached twice.  If the Biden White House smart it will go in to stealth mode, the US and the World needs a quiet Presidency, the daily rantings from the Trump Oval got the President banned for life from twitter.  The US and the World want a " Quiet " PRESIDENCY without worrying what the President might do on any given day.  The Trump Presidency as noted by Trump will go down in history that it did not get in to foreign wars, great Presidents know who to combine the foreign with the domestic, Reagan lost over 240 + Marines in Lebanon and then invaded Grenada the next day, and as the House Speaker stated in his memoirs he made Lebanon go way as if it never happened.  The US is the leader of  the FREE WORLD, that takes sacrifice, Trump was afraid of the body bags coming home from the fight, that was the part the Democrats never understood, Trump was not planning to invade Iran any time soon, if he was he was talked out of the idea. Thus Trump was a impotent President and thus failed the US and the World. 

Don't call be the second Richard Nixon - Trump - Biden Era

CNN: Reports " Trump explodes at Nixon comparisons as he prepares to leave office "

Lets Get Real:

It can be fair to say that President Trump is the WORST President in US history, he has been impeached twice, and on the 2nd one he did that to himself.  The speech outside the White House roused the rioters to attack the Capitol.  It is expected that Trump will use his PARDON power for his friends and himself, on the pardon to himself, that might sound crazy but he should not expect that Biden will be giving him a PARDON, thus if he removes the problem by doing it himself, the Washington D.C will give the impression that they are annoyed but might be just as happy for the issue to go away.  As for the comparison with Nixon, Tricky Dicky won two elections, and resigned before he was impeached.   Also the Nixon years had success on the domestic front and on the World State, that is more than be said of Trump.  On foreign policy Trump has been a disaster, he makes Jimmy Carter look good and he never be another Reagan.  Thus we start with the Biden Era.
