---------------------------------------
Donald J. Trump has been President of the United States (POTUS for short) for almost seven months by August 1st and everyone should rightfully be terrified; not of him or his Presidency but the ominous parallels to our past.
The Republicans have held a majority it he legislative branch along with the executive for the same duration.
The stock market has enjoyed a bull market of historic proportions without a correction for the longest period in post Federal Reserve Act history.
And effective overnight interest rates have remained below the historical average as measured by the Fed Fund Rate in over 6o years.
The economic situation we face is minor however compared to other problems like:
North Korea may have more nuclear weapons material than previously thought
Sucks to work in Seattle or San Francisco eh?
California Still Facing Pension Crisis Even With Good Stock Market Returns
Don’t worry, the Kookiefornians with money are now all moving to Florida. Er, uh, damn.
Experts: ISIS Diaspora a Looming Threat to Europe, America
Thankfully they are “contained.”
‘Nightmare’ silent bomb could destroy America
Good thing everyone purchased those huckster “solar powered generators” advertised between 9 a.m to 12 p.m ET on the radio.
I could go on and on.
The truth is that any one event or an outbreak of war in any major region of the world contested by the major powers via their proxies could create a living hell between August and October.
My money however is on a combination of U.S. government incompetency and the rise of global modern fascism revealing a historical parallel unseen since the collapse of German democracy in the 1930’s. The stock market is over-valued by at least 30%, the economy propped up by false statistics, and worse, an unstable Presidential administration unwilling to recognize that the mistakes of his 1929 clone are being repeated daily by an inexperienced staff and incompetent dual party leadership.
During the election of 1928 a somewhat charismatic, albeit not as flamboyant individual as Trump, ran for President. He, like Trump was a wealthy businessman. He, like Trump, had never held any elected political office. Also like Donald Trump, this candidate was disliked by the establishment Republicans, despised by the Democrats, and worse, was once a Democrat but rebuked when he refused to run for the Presidency under their banner (yes, the Dems did approach Trump after the 2000 disaster with Algore).
History has judged Herbert Hoover quite harshly, yet his goals to save our nation after the Great Crash of 1929 were quite noble. He was victimized by not only the establishment Republicans protecting the banking elites, but a Democrat Party which said to the average citizens “damn you we want total power” and thus froze the ability of the Federal Government to engage in any productive actions to prevent further deterioration of the economy or save the citizenry from the crashing banking system. The Democrats actually were willing to impose pain on the average man, letting them live on the streets and starve to retrieve positions of power and achieve the dual goal of destroying the Republican Party.
What made the situation worse was Hoover’s attempts to “work” with the other party by signing legislation supported by the most Progressive wings of both parties (Smoot-Hawley for example) which not only made the crisis worse, but accelerated the turn to the downside by destroying any remnants of capitalism as the economy declined at an accelerated pace.
Thus bringing us full circle to the crisis we are facing in America and the world now:
