When Ego Blinds, Tariffs Fail, Interest Rates Prevail…

“What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?”

It is simple! AWARENESS! Now to the point!

Looking at the exchange of statements between President Trump and Ex Russian President Medvedev, and reading it many times over I came to the conclusion that WORDS MATTER. just like the man I respect very much Scott Ritter said. It looks like that everything started with then candidate Trump bragging that he said to President Putin that he would “bomb a s@#% out of Moscow.” Too much of blah blah blah which does not contribute to your, mine, our security. Where ever we live we are not safe. Then I consult some of my notes and came to this words “we should understand completely the immense responsibility that comes with words, especially in times of war. Even those who champion peace and justice can, in moments of passion or partial understanding contribute to the very injustices they seek to oppose.” This statement completely and truthfully explains my thoughts. Having said that I, as a human being, want to believe that Mr. Trump and Mr. Medvedev do not want for nuclear exchange to happen. That is why President Trump announcement that he is sending two Nuclear Submarines to appropriate regions where they already are! Before, Mr. President you ever again mention nuclear you should get some calming pills and follow Mr.Lukashenko friendly advise: If Trump wants peace, he should start with listening, not lecturing.” Following is part of Mr.Putin statement from the same meeting: “As for any disappointments on the part of anyone. All disappointments arise from the excessive expectations. This is a well known common rule. But in order to approach a solution to the issue in a peaceful manner we need to have substantive talks, and we need to do this not in public but in a calm an a quiet manner. This is why we proposed to create three groups…”

Like it or not, this man looks like the only adult in the room. President Trump absolutely has the ability to become another one adult in the room. He will have Mr.Putin as an ally as long as he is consistent and when his word match nis deeds. Quietly and in private. Trust is essential for the survival of all of us. So built it Mr. Trump. Let it your “Drill Baby, Drill” work for the best of America and whole world and you will be having allies no one will ever have. Both Russia and China! It is not easy to get out of the “Treason in America” but when you do it you will be getting your immortality ticket! So, it is worthy, isn’t it?

Below is the video of Mr. Ritter.

One thing is certain. Even that there are hot heads in America like some Donahue thinking that they can get Russian land and leadership there are still sober people knowing that any attempt will initiate the DEAD HAND mentioned by ex Russian President Medvedev. So, did Russians said that they will get any American territory? Or did the American “Rambo” general instructed by …. said that he would take Russian territory? With this imbecilic statement of that general Mr.Putin could order 20 Russian Nuclear Submarines to “go to the appropriate location” assuring that the first missile would go to the a#$ of that particular general. But that off course did not happen. So, for the genuine human being the statement of this fashionable haircut general means that if that happens there will be the end of the Earth including of all of those hotheads in America. The main question is if he was instructed by someone higher then him to say what he said? On the other hand America knows that it can not take Russia or China in a conventional way. BigMac is not of help. That brings us to the president of the USA and some of his advisors. If my statement from the beginning of this post is right then they need to be changed and immediately. On the other hand, if this continues Russia will not be trusting any of the envoys President Trump is sending. But it is not all that disastrous. One positive thing is the balanced interview of Marco Rubio to FOX News radio where he said and this: “A war between the United States and Russia is not something we can ever see…These are the two largest nuclear weapons militaries in the world…And the danger would just be too great…I don’t think there’s any doubt that from a conventional military capability, the Russians could not take on the United States or, frankly, many of the countries in Europe, for that matter…I think they would struggle…They’ve struggled with Ukraine, who now is the largest army in Europe but at the time being invaded was not…I think they would struggle…On a conventional front greatly…I think what you worry more about is not an all-out war with Russia…I thing what you’re worrying more about is a skirmish or a miscalculation that leads to the start of conflict…Since the Russians are not very good at conventional weaponry, they would almost invariably have to rely on some other means, like a tactical nuclear weapon on the battlefield, to sort of escalate in an effort to de-escalate a fight…So you would worry about that, but we shouldn’t even think about it, because that’s not something that is plausible or frankly feasible for either side”.

When one looks at the US debt clock at https://www.usdebtclock.org/ understands that nothing can save USA from reaching new heights every single day and thus pay huge interest to Federal Reserve and all others that are having US bonds. That is why what President Trump tries by demanding from Fed Chairman Powel to reduce interest rates is translated as a war against all the US creditors as their profits will be reduced by a lot! So, for them to accept it they might ask for a “favors.” Like getting Russia and its riches! Or to reduce Russia to 50 million. THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN. Further, no savings of D.O.G.E. can help, no new investments, no extra tariffs, no extortion’s or trade wars. Current US dept is in the range of 37 trillion 172 billion and some change of USD. D.O.G.E. clock of savings is not doing bad but it is only nearing 577 billion. Yet total hidden wealth comes to 174 trillion USD so, America still has time to reach the point of drowning. But the greed of the fed shareholders looks like it is imminent and insatiable. They want it NOW! And poor President Trump tries to balance… That means that the USA will be a very difficult to cope with in the next decade or so. They will need to get rid of all traitors of America and further have a sober and strong leadership that will be able to stop all lunatics, and they are many, who want to “blow the sh&@ out of Moscow.” Is this the case now? Or we are seeing dangerous and largely uncontrollable creatures going towards the point of no return that equals ARMAGGEDON? Remember that THEY WILL BE FIRST TO GO. That is karma.

The world ALREADY ENTERED very dangerous times. Protagonist is a former sole superpower that thinks it is still a sole superpower. That believes it is exceptional and the best of the best. It believes that the rest should either follow them by paying a new way of tribute or be completely crashed. This policy includes zero tariffs for any goods exported from the USA. Yet, exports to the USA face 20, 30, or 50% tariffs. Common sense says that these policies will make the world even more dangerous. America cherishes the value of USD above all else while those who know are storing more gold and silver. No culture, no art, no theater, no advance education or whatever that is not connected with money money and money is important. Art and culture do not matter if not closely connected with money. That is a significant difference compared to the 1990s. During that time, the world was facing a collapse of the nuclear super power Soviet Union. It also faced economic problems of nuclear power Russia. But no-one was threatening anyone with Nuclear Submarine deployment. Because the Russians never had a slight thought of using their nuclear power to subdue anyone. On the contrary, they always considered their culture their values. They also thought about their thousands of years of history. Their people and the world as a whole were always on their minds. They offered the hand of friendship and peace to the west which was insidiously rejected. So the real devils are not in Russia.

With todays America there is a difference as the USD has the place of God and they say that the time is money instead that the time is life and money comes as a products of hard work as a mere means for exchange and not an asset but a dept.

Today’s president Trump who is not a passionate reader or writer is showing that his policies do not work for the recovery. It is not his fault, but he is now at the place where he needs to try. The debt continues to rise. It shows no tendency to drop despite investments, tariffs and other ways of extortion. Maybe more money printing is the solution? Or just producing money out of thin air using bank credit? What is for sure, is that nothing was forever and thus credit will not be forever. And when it implodes GOD help us all. If that happens we should, at least , be aware who is responsible.

The times are difficult and approaching very dangerous situations if something or someone does not balance President Trump in his megalomania and extortion tactics. As he said that he likes Russian people he should if he reads anything, read some parts from Brothers Karamazov of Dostoevsky. ” Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he can not distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.” Very deep and truthful statement that can help the person who acknowledges the issue he is facing. If not the world should be prepared for everything!

World needs personalities that will “approach solution to the issue in a peaceful manner… with the talks “not in public but in a calm and quiet manner.” Ego can be shown but only after the solution!

Let’s demand that those who like to talk about being our leaders show it in practice! No actor from an inhuman sect is important here! The existence of the world is at stake! It is not a joke!

Your coffee treat will be highly appreciated. Thank you.
