Aircraft Carrier to be named after Trump - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 1.29pm post the following, " Navy considers naming carrier for Trump instead of Black war hero as planned - report "

Let's Get Real:

This is either coming from the White House or Trump officials in the Defence Department are wanting to get bonus points with Trump.  This is a bad idea, the Democrats have jumped to attack Trump and the Republicans will have to defend it before the Mid Terms in November.  The original name was to honour an African - American Naval hero of Pearl Harbour 1941.  The honour is well deseved, Trump should rule it out, he is trying to change Washington D.C to honour him, Trump is delusional and needs someone to show him reality.

President Trump's Inaugural Address - Trump 47

 

Lets Get Real:

You decide, a great speech from the heart or scary on all fronts.

Trump playing to the base in Speech - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election 2024 - Biden Era

 Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 4.07pm post the following, " Trump wants death penalty for illegal migrants who commit murder...The former president says the country is in a poor state, but he's going to "fix it very fast" if he wins.  "

Lets Get Real:

CNN showed Trump's speech from Florida, it was racist, he stated that the other central and Southern America countries were throwing their prisoners and mental patients on to American soil.  One cannot believe that he is still spouting this kind of rubbish, it is a return to the his original speech when he announced he was running for the Presidency.   Trump has not grown while in OFFICE or losing in 2020 to President Biden.  This is why this blog is supporting VP Harris in this campaign, she will support the Ukraine and defend Israel but also be honest with Israel about its actions in Gaza.   The VP is not this blog's cup of tea, but is better than Trump, and the great Gipper is gone.   Reagan said his last speech from the Oval Office, if there have to be WLLS there needs to be doors, Reagan had been Governor of California. At least the election will be over in a few days, the sane America voters need to vote for Harris, there is such a thing as decency.

VP Harris has a 1% LEAD over former President Trump - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election

The Hill: Reports " Harris’s lead over Trump slips to 1 point in new national survey...The poll, released Monday, shows Harris leading Trump by 1 point, 45 percent support to 44 percent, among likely voters nationally.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is not good, this blogs political gut is worried that Harris might just lose in the end, the Vice President should spend ALL her time in the Swing States, use Bill Clinton and Barack Obama as well, keep the President out of it, he is not that popular, the decision could come down to a few thousand voters, the VP should shake more hands and kiss at many babies it takes to win.   The very thought that Trump could win should worry all sane Americans.   The VP needs a limited amount of Republican support, she could say that she will only  serve one term as President, anything to keep Trump OUT of the Oval Office.  There are less than to two weeks to go, the security of NATO and Western Europe is at stake, the above promise could allow for Republicans to vote for her, four years is not that long and fresh candidates in 2028.

VP Harris TIED with Trump on 47% with likely voters - 2024 Candidates/General Election - Biden Era

Yahoo!News: Reports on its latest poll, " Among likely voters, the vice president’s lead vanishes entirely (47% to 47%).  "

Lets Get Real:

The American voters is tired of the celebrity run campaign of the VP, they want her to do tough interviews, she is running the 2020 campaign of POTUS, in that campaign Biden was hidden in his home bunker, the press covered for him due to the fact they hated Trump and of course it was the period of COVID - 19.   They want to know more about the VP, they think they were sold a con in 2020, if the election had been a typical election one does wonder if Biden would have been elected.  There are reports that former President Barack Obama will do a weeks campaign for her, its late and you cannot transfer charisma, political class acts like Obama do not like  to share the stage, Obama was the first African - American President, now  if Harris is elected, his achievement will not be that special.   The Wars in the Middle East could damage the Harris run, the Biden line is to support Israel, even if he cannot stand the Israeli PM, its mutual, it might effect the ethnic vote in the Swing States.  Former President Trump is on the side of Israel.  An interesting few weeks ahead.   This blog is keeping to the projection that Harris will win.

Hamas says NO to Ceasefire in Gaza - Middle East Crisis - Biden Era and Searching for a Legacy

Sky News: Reports in its 6.49pm post the following, " 

Hamas rejects new Israeli conditions in Gaza ceasefire talks....

Israel and Hamas have been sticking firmly to their demands for months as the US, Qatar and Egypt have tried to broker a deal. "

Lets Get Real:

This development is not breaking news, it seems that President Biden will have to go on looking for a Legacy, what the Biden Oval should recall if his VP gets the nod from the voters in November, that will be a major legacy, the first Woman, the first African American woman elected to the Presidency.   Thus Biden should do whatever the Harris Campaign wants him to do, if they want him to stay in the White House and say nothing, he should do that.   Israel under its present PM wants to destroy HAMAS as  a force and a ideology, they want to win, no matter what a President who is leaving in 5 months says.  In the Middle East it has always been an eye for an eye, since the dawn of time, something things do not change. 

Russia advances in East Ukraine - Ukraine - Russia War - Biden Era

Noted:  The left wing Guardian pointed out that the Speech by President Biden was not in prime time, so his speech was not seen by everyone, the Harris Campaign do not want a serious connection to be seen between the new Candidate and POTUS, although she was his Vice - President. 

BBC News: Reports " Russian forces claim another town captured in east Ukraine.....Russia's military says it has captured a small town in eastern Ukraine called Niu-York, as part of its push towards big population centres in the Donetsk region.  "

Lets Get Real:

It should be asked has the Ukraine done a strategic mistake with its invasion of Russia, the aim was to get Russia to remove troops from the East Ukraine and to place them back in Russia, thus far this has not worked.   The Ukraine is pushing forward in Russia, the same can be said of the Russians.   The article notes that Putin has started to call the areas under Russia control by their Imperial name, he does really want the Russian Empire back, thus the Ukraine must make him pay in the Kursk region of Russia, they should try to make the Russia pride hurt, this is not 1941, the Ukraine Army is not killing Russian residents because of their faith or politics, the Ukraine should make the region a freedom area, undermine Putin and his regime.   This could be a long and bloody war, it was Putin's war and he must be stopped.

Trump uses the RACE CARD on VP Harris - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election

Lets Get Real

The Trump are using racist adverts to attack VP Harris, they are using the 1988 " Willie Horton " advert as the example, there is no need for this, the record of allowing violent prisoners bail should be BAD ENOUGH, by making sure that nearly all those selected for the advert are from a ethnic background is is bad taste, and in these days open the campaign to the charge of racism, calling VP Harris a BUM is not called for, she still the VP of the United States.   This blog is moving to supporting Harris, not yet a full endorsement.

Lets Get Real:

More Effective and less Racist, 

Trump LEADS Harris by 2% - New Poll - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election - Biden Era

The Hill: Reports " Trump leads Harris by 2 points in new Wall Street Journal poll...Former President Trump topped Vice President Harris by 2 points in a new poll from The Wall Street Journal.  "

Lets Get Real:

This blog is surprised that Trump still leads Harris, the liberal elite media is been fawning over Harris since POTUS withdrew from the race.  There is a race on to define Harris before Harris can define herself, the Trump Campaign is going that she is a UBER LIBERAL, the type loved by the New York Times.  Also that it is still the Biden /Harris Administration, thus the failed Presidents legacy it attached to her, so far the Harris Campaign is flying form hot air from the elite media.   The remarks by the VP on Gaza will annoy the Israeli lobby, but will appeal to students and those from the ethnic background, important in the Swing States.  The Harris VP choice will be interesting, a fellow liberal or someone more moderate, a long race ahead is a short time.

Republicans are UNITED in Convention - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 9.30pm post the following, " Defeated Trump rivals to preach unity at Republican convention...After bruising debates against each other, Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis will give speeches on party unity. "

Lets Get Real:

The Republican Party is showing a UNITED FRONT, that is more than can be said of the Democrats, those on the Hill who want Biden OUT, are still pushing for that.   The invitation to Governor Haley is new, she kept in the race a long time, the Trump Campaign was not happy, this shows that Trump has learned to do what it takes to win in the Suburbs, women because of the abortion issue tend to vote Democratic.  The campaign knows that it will need to attract the female vote, or least take some women votes from the Democrats, the same goes for the African America vote and other ethnic groups, the campaign is back on track and the Democrats are playing dirty. 

After Trump's big win in Iowa, he is tied with Haley in NH -New Poll - 2024 Candidate/General Election 2024

The Hill: Reports that " Trump, Haley tied in New Hampshire poll...The survey from American Research Group Inc., released Tuesday, puts Trump and Haley at 40 percent each among the state’s likely Republican primary voters.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Trump will have a fit once he sees this poll, CNN has been supporting Haley since the start, so called liberal media want the WORSE for the Republican Party, they are afraid of 2nd Trump term, as they should be, Trump is a THREAT to the US and Western security, so expect a lot of praise for Haley, let's recalled she was the Governor who who took down the Confederate Flag in her State, also she is from Indian heritage, but said today that the US is not a racist Country, she should really thank LBJ for his Great Society and civil rights laws of the 1960s.  Thus far this blog is supporting Governor Haley, she is the only one that can beat Trump and Biden.

Blow to Biden over Student debt relief by the US Supreme Court - 2024 Candidate/Presidential Election

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 3.44pm post the following, " Ruling is 6-3 against forgiving student debt...The Supreme Court has just issued a ruling striking down President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness plan, siding with the state of Nebraska, which brought the challenge....The ruling was 6-3, with the liberal justices once again dissenting.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is a major blow to the Biden Agenda, the Court decided that it was up to Congress to pass a bill that forgives student debt, not at the whim of the Oval Office, one is sure the White House will look at other ways to get the debt forgiving, thus ore court cases.  The founding fathers would be aghast at the idea that the President of the day cold forgive around 400 Billion, its a new kind of welfare, vote for me and I will take some of your debt away, what about those that did not go to University, what do they get NOTHING.   The US Supreme Court did the right thing, its up to the Congress to spend the money of the tax payer not as a bribe from a President and his political party.   The Supreme Court was also right about affirmative action that made  Universities take in to consideration the colour of a students skin, it should be about MERT, its the content of the character of the student, not his skin type, if I recall Dr King something like that  when it came to race. 

The RIGHT to Vote in the US - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Voting rights: How the battle is unfolding across the US "

Lets Get Real:

This is a power grab by Democrats, they want elections to last all year around, a couple of weeks before election becomes a couple of months.  The US Supreme Court has made it clear that STATES decide the process for election, of course the Democrats are going to cry foul, they think only Democratic votes should count ALL the time.   Of course the Republicans are not doing this based on sound ideology, they have fallen for the lie that Former President Trump is spouting, that he was robbed in 2020. Biden won the election fair and square but he has been drafted by the LEFT of his party to push for a constant Democratic victory.  The right to vote is not the question, its the manner of voting, and that is up to the States. 

The start of the Biden Agenda - Biden Era - US Politics

Sky News: Reports in its 01.47am post the following, " Joe Biden appears increasingly bullish about his prospects of election victory - he has promised that the US will rejoin the Paris climate agreement in 77 days' time.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus we are seeing the US return to the moral leadership of the West, President - Elect Biden has stated that the US will return to the Paris Climate agreement on his first day on the job, that being 21 January 2021.   Also Biden will return to enforcing civil rights and calling out those opposed to civil rights.  It should be recalled pre Trump the Oval was about MORLE power, thus JFK on civil rights and Reagan calling the USSR an " Evil Empire ".  The World will be glad for a more quiet President, no more endless tweets, or endless press conferences, on the other hand TV might just get a new channel, Trump TV, he can be on it all day, and making life miserable for the other Channels, in this case Fox News and also going after President Biden, he might run again in 2024 to annoy everyone.

Trump's Last Victory - Amy Coney Barrett - US Presidential Election

Daily Mail: Reports " Kamala tears into Amy Coney Barrett for planning to 'undo RBG's legacy' and Republicans for holding confirmation in first place - as SCOTUS nominee says she'd bring 'new perspective' as a mom and promises to 'apply law as written' "

Lets Get Real:

This will be the final victory for Trump if all goes to plan, Amy Coney Barrett will be the third Judge chosen by Trump for the Supreme Court, the Conservatives who thinks the Court is the first order of business can now vote for Biden, of course Biden has not said that he wont pack the Court will liberal judges.   Thus the Senate Republicans need to send a clear message, that Republican voters need to keep the Senate in Republican hands, or the Democrats will have the Oval, House and the US Senate and can push through what they want, abortion on demand, ObamaCare1.2.  Interesting few days on the Hill.

POTUS after the 1st Debate - US Presidential Debate

BBC News: Reports " President Donald Trump has said a far-right group should "stand down" and let law enforcement do its work, after his refusal to explicitly condemn the group in a TV debate sparked a backlash.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is best to think about a debate after getting a  goodnight sleep and then make a judgement, the debate itself was a horror show or as a CNN reporter called it a Sh*t show.  POTUS attacked Biden from the start and that lasted for 90 minutes and Biden made a mistake by calling POTUS a clown, he might be a clown, but he is still President of the United States, and Biden told Trump to shup up, hardly Presidential.  All Biden had to to was not fall on the stage and finish a sentence, he did that, the bar was that low, but it was noticed by this blog that Biden got tired over the 90 minutes and his vocab was late 1960s.   On the whole the arch liberal press has supported Biden, as expected and gone after every mistake by Trump, while not following up on the question that the moderator asked Biden, would he try to place Democratic Judges on the Supreme Court to counter its right wing tilt of the Court.  Thus far this blog cannot see Biden losing, its for him to lose it.

The Toxic President, Biden on Trump - US Presidential Election

Sky News: Reports " Joe Biden asks if Americans want the 'toxin' that is Donald Trump as president..The Democrat turned his focus from coronavirus to Donald Trump's handling of violent protests across the US.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is mistake for Biden to get into the trenches to fight the LAW AND ORDER topic, there is always a chance that more violence will break out in US cities and Biden will be asked about it, and if he gives the wrong answer he could LOSE his liberal base or start to worry people who live in the suburbs.  A Biden victory is not a give walk over, Biden is no OBAMA or REAGAN.  If Trump can gain a few points in the rust belt State then we might have a real race on our hands.  The Debates will be interesting, will Biden say NO to them, this has been the view of the House Speaker, the Democrats are afraid that Biden will show his age or do something that costs the Democrats the White House.

Who is the Law AND Order Candidate in the US ? - US Presidential Election

BBC News: Reports " Biden accuses 'weak' Trump of stoking violence "

Lets Get Real:

The US Presidential Election is getting nasty, and the Democrats have to be careful that they do not LOSE the law and order fight, as has been noted, Nixon used that in 1968 to beat the sitting Vice - President in their match up.   President Trump has no difficulty in sending in the Army in to Democratic cities if they look like they are out of control, also suburbs do not like to feel the threat of riots on their doorstep.  It has been noted that Biden has not done a lot of actually meeting the people, he has stayed in his bunker, he has to get out more, the US voter likes a candidate who are not afraid to meet the voters, and Trump loves big rallies.  One the whole Biden should win, but he can not afford to lose more points  to Trump.

HERE WE GO AGAIN? Trump suggests birther theory about Harris - US Presidential Election

BBC News: Reports " President Donald Trump says he has heard Democratic running mate Kamala Harris "doesn't qualify" to serve as US vice-president, amplifying a fringe legal theory critics decry as racist.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus POTUS is up to his OLD TRICKS, after going after Barack Obama with his birther theory, he is NOW going after Senator Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for Vice - President.   The 2020 will be a battle in the trenches, all sides will play dirty, but to use  a racist theory against the Senator is foolish, as all she has to say is look at my record, a tough Attorney General in California, the issue would have come up by now if it was reality.  If this is the best that the Trump/Harris campaign can do, the Biden victory will be BIG in November. 

It's Kamala for Biden - VP pick choice - US Presidential Election 2020

Politico: Reports " Biden picks Kamala Harris as VP nominee.Harris, the daughter of immigrants from Jamaica and India, was the wire-to-wire frontrunner for Biden’s No. 2 job.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus the next US VP will be Senator Kamala Harris, this is a good move by Biden, she has a record as tough prosecutor and not afraid to show elbows when it comes to debates, she went after Biden in one debate.   Let's hope Biden has gotten blood oath from her that she will be loyal, while he is the Oval he does not want to worry that his VP has measured the drapes for the Oval Office when she moves in.  Thus the Presidential fight starts today!!
