Blain’s Morning Porridge 9th October 2024: Why the Republicans Deserve to Win the US Election.
“Markets will never accept the Radical Left Lunatic that Destroyed California.”
The US election remains too close to split. In light of the negativity towards former President Trump in the mainstream press, I thought it might redress the balance if the Red Team were given a chance to explain their perspective. (Ahem..)
The US election polls are fascinating. Apparently, Trump is going to win because a polling organisation sampled all 6 users of Trump Social and astonishingly posted a Trump Landslide prediction. In reality, the polls are not only too close to be meaningful, but Trump and Harris are less than a point apart across the 7 key battleground states. Since Politics is a key influence on markets and the economy… what does it all mean?
After finding myself stumped in horror at yet another “Donald Trump ate my Hamster” story in a US newspaper this morning, or maybe it was the BBC documentary about Trump’s return to the place he was shot.. I wonder if it’s possible I am suffering negative bias against him. In the interests of preserving my total neutrality on the US election, (ahem), I wonder if the deluge of negativity I read about the Orange Narcissist Man-Child might just be colouring my judgement about the coming US popularity contest?
I decided the only way to be fair about it would be to let one of my US Republican chums rationally explain why Trump should win. Naturally I have barely edited anything he wrote.. (!)
From the Red Corner…
“Who do these goddamn Democrats think they are?... They’ve absolutely wrecked the US economy and undermined America’s future! Dumb as a Rock, Low IQ, Radical Left Marxist, Kamala Harris would only make things worse – but she won’t get the chance because Trump will win, and if he doesn’t then she’ll be guilty of electoral malfeasance and theft. That’s irrefutable.
After the exceptional strength and positivity of President Trump’s first term, demonstrated by the stock market surging an unprecedented 20% while confidence in the economy rose to record levels as President Trump basked in the love and joy of his adoring electorate, the USA has spent the last 4 wasted years struggling with the greatest economic collapse of all time – stealing the livelihoods out the mouths of the great American people. It’s all the fault of these so-called Democrats, who stole the election we are all know are worse, much, much worse than Communists.
Dear Lord, I want to wash my mouth out with Carbolic after even thinking their name!
Look at the evidence:
- Over the past 4 years of Democratic Mismanagement and Woke Wars on the Great American People, the stock market has struggled, barely scraping a lethargic 54% gain since sleepy Joe blatantly stole the Election from President Trump.
- The suffering of the working classes is illustrated by the soul-crushing reality of 4.1% unemployment, while entrepreneurial capitalism has been so defenestrated by their crack-down on the wealthy that just a miserable 200k+ new jobs are being created each month – and all of which are going to illegal immigrants.
- The fact US GDP has barely risen from $21 trln to $29 trln, an embarrassingly weak 38% rise, confirms 4 wasted years under Biden. The fact the US hasn’t sunk further into economic decline is entirely due to non-Democrat voting Republicans fighting to save the economy, and nothing to do with Democrat policy so comprehensively juicing the economy.
Meanwhile, higher interest rates have deliberately destroyed American jobs and Prosperity – and that was a deliberate conspiracy choice by the left-leaning Fed, Treasury, wealthy neo-Communists like Bill Gates, George Soros, et al, and the Elites in the Democrat Leadership. It’s taken their puppet Biden nearly 2 years to get inflation down – after he personally initiated it with his ill-judged decision not to give Ukraine back to Russia, forcing Putin into an all-out purely defensive Invasion.
While snoozing away the day and embarrassing America on the World Stage, he took his sweet time about fixing the inflation problem he created. Heck, even the Goddamn Brits are getting inflation down. If these incompetents can do it – why the hell didn’t Biden??
Even as Biden destroyed the economy, millions of innocent, God-fearing, Americans patriots have been cancelled and consigned to the gulag of Democrat Woke punishment, including those brave patriots visiting our Nation’s Capital on Jan 6th 2021 in support of Donald Trump’s efforts to expose the election steal. Globally admired journalists of the calibre of Tucker Carlson have seen their reports sidelined by the censorship of the left that fills our newspapers with lies and untruths. Election Lawfare has been used to silence patriots like JFK Jr.
Across America, there have been massive purges in Education – any professor or teacher that dares to question any aspect of the left’s communist agenda of immediate gender surgery for all children has been “disappeared”. Schoolchildren are being fed dangerous falsehoods such as a “woman’s right to choose”, directly contrary to the unimpeachable wisdom of the Supreme Court. Some of our kids don’t even know the names of the 14 disciples – they’ve lost their love and obedience to God, all because of the Democrats war on decency, faith and Donald.
More time and effort has been squandered on the malicious prosecution of America’s most successful ever businessman and best ever President, Donald J Trump, than has been spent on national security! The man is the most innocent, most innocent ever, of any crimes. Lies all lies from thieving Joe and Crazy Kamala..
During his first term, Trump helmed America away from conflict with his bravery to actively engage and steer misguided nations, demonstrating his hand of friendship could generate peace and prosperity. What have Biden and Harris done? They are leading the USA into inevitable war and conflict. Our allies no longer trust the US after Biden’s many cowardly retreats -entirely of his own making. While Donald Trump engaged and released the Taliban to create a better American-supporting Afghanistan, Biden clearly riled them into warfare again. All Biden’s Fault.
Trump will ensure America remains strong by reminding our allies where their best interests lie and pulling out of Nato so the Europe will love us more. The goddamn Yooropeans.. who do they think they are?
Who is supporting the Democrats? No one. We’ve got Elon Mush, the most successful Tech genius of all time. He’s out there now, paying brave Republicans $47 for every vote they bring to the ballot box – because that’s not buying votes (which would be illegal) but a demonstration and reminder to America of how capitalism works. Some of the smartest, richest men in America are not only voting for Trump but are funding him – and folk should be paying attention to that. If you want to get rich, do what the rich do and vote for Trump!
Trump’s economic plans are based on good common sense and pragmatism. Clearly, if we cut taxes for the wealthy, then they’ll spend more, create lots of jobs, and as a nation we will be more prosperous – you can’t argue with that! Tariffs on imports will definitely create even more jobs – mopping up that terrible 4.1% unemployment rate. Democrat leaning communist economists suggesting full employment means the US will struggle to increase manufacturing to reduce imports, and will simply generate wage-inflation as tariffs increase inflation, don’t know nothing.
Biden’s pointless squandering of America’s wealth on the climate-mafia’s lies and the treachery of the Inflation Reduction Act is a case in point on bad policy. The USA now has a world class renewable energy sector, but what goddamn use is that when its devastatingly clear economic salvation lies in maximising Oil and Gas! Drill, Baby, Drill.”
From the Blue Corner
I asked one of my Democrat chums if she’s like to post a rebuttal. Curiously she declined.. “Nope, go with that… we’re fine.” She did suggest I don’t send it to any Republicans: “Bill, they might offer you a job as a scriptwriter.”
Out of time, and back to the day job…..

Bingo.
This article was getting likes on Linked-in before the pixels had dried… strongly hinting folk read the headline and have never experienced sarcasm. (Putting a US Readers: Sarcasm Alert on it would have been too obvious..)
Bills gone full on MAGA . Lolz
Not quite…
Although understandable, I don’t think it is smart for the Democrats not to respond to these ridiculous statement however tiresome they are. A simple comeback with statistical data like unemployment and economic growth will show the blatant lying…
I think you will find that data in the article.
US Economy grew 38% in 4 years under Biden compared to 9.2% under 4 yrs of Trump.
Stock market soard 58% under Biden comp to 20% under Trump.
US unemployment is 4.1% today compared to 3.5% at the best point in Trump’s time in 2019, before it soared to 14% under Trump during Covid (which we can’t really pin on him.)
The one issue the Republicans could claim is interest rates – credit card, auto and mortgage rates are all higher, and defaults are rising, but thats as a result of Post Covid-Supply Chain Shocks and then the Ukraine Energy Shock – which are exogenous shocks like Covid. If you don’t accept that then you should allow to Dems to campaign on the record they got unemployment down from 14% to 4%… Yay!
Fun piece to write though
Exactly! Thank you, John Barron.
bbbbUt heR EmAils………….aaaaah!
Don’t know what that means… whatever. .
