Why not see both sides of arguments? Tariffs are a ying yang. We should build steel and ships here again. This is an attempt to make chips, pills, autos, antivirals (not clothes or toys) etc. here and get tariff revenue. Let’s open Midwest auto and steel factories. Can they compete on world stage if tariff is 30% as EU does to our cars.

If not vigilant, the Chinese will pass us in biotech and AI. They work harder than we do for the most part. Now better educated. Our primary schools in poor areas are monopolistic union controlled entities teaching skin color and history to the detriment of math and English and fundamentals. We need school competition Charter schools.

Re: Prior observations

Shame on Anti-Semites in the United States. Shame on those who attacked Israel; It’s a tribal 7th century mentality. This ideology will not change unless PLO and Hamas are replaced by modern merit-based government managing over Gaza and West Bank.

Israel Arabs are mostly very content living in Israel. They live longer, have better opportunity, again be openly gay even have lesbian clubs, participate in tech and entice economy and live next to Jews never get mentioned by NY times? Why is that?

Why do West Bank 100 or 200 deaths a year never get compared to that in a weeks in Chicago?

Why are 8 million migrants to our United States southern border get called by NY times and the like undocumented residents day one? Why should 600,000 Jews many have lived for decades in a non legal nation West Bank or (Judea and Maraia) should get called by NY Times “settlors” for 60 years?

8 million Jews in Israel and 10 million Jews in the United States, out of 8 billion people on earth get more attention than 7,980,000 other humans?

Why are there no protests over massacres in African countries like Sudan. Somalia,

Congo by Muslims?

Why are there no protests after ten of thousands of Yemenis killed by other Yemenis.

Gaza should be run by Emirates after Israel leaves and Hamas is destroyed. The ideology will never be destroyed without a better alternative. Resorts and a Disneyland overseen by Dubai could do it.

Young people root for the oppressed against the oppressor. In Gaza, they have the wrong oppression but are brainwashed from birth.

1400 children and young women and men were mutilated killed by Iran through proxy to scuttle relations of Israel and Saudi Arabia which Iran does not want.

California closing schools during pandemic after Great Barrington studies results showed no danger to them was wrong. Kids lost, teachers, unions won. Kids did not get sick and were not educated. Food markets were opened; workers didn’t drop dead.

Liquor stores too. Mom and Pop stores were made to close.

Drugs ruin cities, hurts poor especially Blacks and Latinos.

Universities hire 90% Left to Center. No balance.

Rising costs in the last four years very hard on middle class and poor.

We ran out of Afghanistan leaving $1 trillion spy facility Air Forces base. Might that have picked up on tunnels in Gaza which were more than London underground?

We’ve taken millions of unknows over southern border from China, Yemen, Russia, 150 countries. If 1% are terrorists that’s tragic.

Drug deaths 100,000 a year.

Re: Audits DOGE

Fastidious audits are long overdue at $37 trillion debt creation. Our national interest on debt now is exceeding defense expenditures.

If only California would do it. They lost and could not find I recall $20 billion more or less after the Pandemic. The big California surplus under Governor Brown is now a big annual deficit.

The President as Chief Executive is looking for waste. That is one of his jobs. Congress won’t do it. They are pork pushers. He got that “dumb failure” Musk who they laughed at when he built a car saying no new American Car Company ever makes it.

They doubted him when he helped Ukraine defend itself with satellites our government didn’t provide.

And when NASA with billions paid it still could not bring back stranded astronauts he will.

He built a rocket that comes back and is captured to fly again.

As for Twitter a big part of him wanted “free and fair” debate , not following the Left government line suppressing damaging information on a Biden son laptop. He opened issues up to debate. It’s no big deal to him. He loves the country. He’s worth in a good day $300 billion.

Democrats and Republicans should both want audits and reducing waste.

Non-elected government workers spend billions with no supervision; that’s not good.

Wouldn’t we be better off with zero annual deficits? Holding steady the $1 trillion interest on debt should be a bipartisan objective.

We just visited Austin, Clean, vibrant growing, beneficiary of San Francisco’s not jailing bad guys, allowing drugs to destroy 40,000 humans, theft closing Nordstrom scares off customers; CVS, Walmart, Bloomingdales, maybe Macy’s and so many others.

Helping poor should be objective. So should merit. Pathways For Kids has a Black Nigerian President, Brown Program Director, Filipino Program Person. We push merit in earning money, not salivating for reparations government handouts.

I believe in school competition, not unions fighting charter schools hurting our poorest. I too care about environment but I don’t want small groups to tell me I can’t have different opinions.

Dear Sally

Cost to family of four under 65, $20,000 a year, 11 market earners over $25,000?

What I understand from our mailings.

Short-term coverage cheaper; to replace Obamacare for donut hole. Covers what is needed; not pregnancy for men i.e.

More video visits of doctors won’t refuse to take older patients because of less reimbursement.

100 million people Medicare.

100 million people Medicaid.

100 million company or individual pays. So government is 2/3 of our system.

20 million donut hole plus migrants no insurance so General Hospital, emergency rooms are full.

Full price transparency printed by doctors/hospitals for service to be enforced as is the law.

What am I wrong?

Here’s how I explain trump LED republican victory.

If my friends on the left many hated him personally for his character. I never hated Kamala Harris. She is capable. However, her platform is not only too far left, but her ideas of taxing unreceived gains, price control even a college freshman understand is crazy. Trump has humor and crowds even in Bronx on the left ate it up. His message is simple. Economy, cut tax, cut regulation, don’t force people to eat brie when they want a steak sandwich. He rightly supported Israel’s right to live on a Jewish state without constant missiles coming at it and wars. To Muslims, no one wants innocent people to be killed in Gaza but Hamas played them to get killed for sympathy. It worked with many in the world who focus on the 40,000 soldiers civilians killed in Gaza but not hundreds of thousands dead in war in Ukraine, Sudan, Ethiopia, Yemen.

There are 7 million Arabs in Israel, Gaza, West Bank, starting from 500,000 one hundred years ago, there is no “genocide”.

Since many Jews in Israel came from being evicted from Morocco, Egypt, Syria. There was no “colonization”.

Voters didn’t buy that trump did not do the best he would get in COVID vaccines. Fauci ran that department along with others. They stifled debate. Only Florida and a few other states kept their economy open.

Voters don’t want a man who changes to female, boxing a female or dunking on her . Otherwise they have no problem with people transitioning as young adult.

Voters fear China, Russia, Iran, North Korea coalition of bad actors. They believe Trump and people around him are far better equipped to deal with those issues.

Voters don’t want Hunter laptop issue buried before election, suppression speech or lawsuit that have questionable merit i.e. 33 felony charges from one check to a lawyer they found obscure. They didn’t buy puffing on financial statement with no damages, wrongdoing what Biden did with government documents they bought it. Keep at home with secret service a put off.

And Trump campaigned hard, answered questions with humor. Communicated. Harris did not. Not only did she change her policies (not her values which means a later change back) likely.

Further, the Left sees everything but about blacks, whites, Hispanics, gay. Trump looked at merit and sensible old-fashioned policies of strong economy , strong defense and knowing who is coming in to live here.

By the way, Trump won in spite of the fact the economy is good. People can get jobs. In California, it’s worse on high taxes by Democrat legislative and Governor one party has pushed out businesses, people left without jobs, taxes not the same, state with city deficits.

As a lifelong Democrat, why I voted for a Republican President. That Liz Cheney became a Democrat is not an influence for me. Liz Cheney is not my hero. Her problem with her former party is Trump as is Dick’s.

I had four years of Trump. I like what he did with the economy, Abraham Accords, no wars, employment for minorities. Why he is portrayed as Hitler I don’t know. I had four years of Biden. I’m not happy with Afghanistan dead soldiers weapons left 80 billion, base, women, Iran, spending, waiving contractual debt obligations, school monopolies, schools dividing of races etc.

I do like that Tulsi has joined the Republican campaign by virtue of issues not persona. Those people who wish to frighten people saying Trump will be a dictator, I dismiss. He was President for four years. We know him good and bad. What frightens me is one party California. Lowering corporate tax brought back business from places like Ireland. Raising to 28% or 33%. Harry’s plan would be very harmful for the economy. Look what high tax in

California has done. Losing Schwab, Chevron, Salesforce, Tesla, Oracle was foolish. Unnecessary. Think employees now out of work. California should have reduced tax. It was arrogant for Gavin to fight with Elon. Where will the workers go? Most can’t go to Austin and Florida etc. Think of California’s current lost revenue on top of 70 billion budget deficit. A wiser Governor and less arrogant Legislature would not let that happen.

I like what the Republicans did with Abraham Accords. I don’t like the Democrats enabling Iran to finance Hamas Hezbollah, Yemen, to attack Israel every few years. This time so viciously.

I don’t like current administration holding Israel back. The war could possibly have ended months ago.

40,000 dead in Gaza out of 2.3 million; Half of the 40,000 fighters, is not a genocide. And NY times while attacking Israel daily, hardly mentions who started this war and every other nor does The Times seem to compare 600,000 dead in Ukraine. Or 1,000,000 in Sudan, Yemen, Myanmar and 50 other wars currently going on.

I like and respect Tom Cotton, Ben Carson, Nikki Haley, Governor Younkin of Virginia, DeSantis, Byron Donaldson, Senator Johnson, Jordan, Senator Kennedy, Senator Rubio, Elise Stefanik. Good bunch.

I like fealty to our constitution, it’s our anchor.

I don’t like open border and Harris giving out her book to immigrants, the medical challenges it is bringing, the cost to cities in healthcare, schooling to untenable amounts. I think it’s mostly illegal as legal cap is 1 million a year. The current limit could be raised to 2.5 including stamping foreign students studying here in STEM as a citizen.

I like electric cars but not a command economy as I witness in Soviet Union years ago one style of men’s shoes.

Visit Colombia you will see all the poor Venezuelan girls working the streets. Venezuela was a rich country until 20 years ago. We are on a slippery slope. California has one

viable party now. Hundreds of businesses have moved, leaving people unemployed and tax void.

The Democrats tried balloons of taxing unrealized gains, price controls, rent controls are absurd. I did agree on Ukraine but that has to end.

Warmest, Peter

PS. I voted Democrat my entire life through Hillary.

Presidential and Senate Elections

The people have spoken. Most of us are merit based. And want physical security. Thus, the economy, defense and crime. Abortion turns out not to be a major issue to most. The color of skin is increasingly irrelevant. It’s how people present themselves. Trump connected. He worked his butt off. He was specific on issues.

Kamla, an attractive candidate, was recondite, vague, changed positions. But said she would not change values. The values seem to be open border, no fracking, no prosecution for petty crime vs broken window government run health without alternatives. Then nutty economic policies, trial balloons like taxing unrealized capital gains which owners don’t have liquidity to pay and appraising will be difficult. It will lead to mass selling. And price controls which don’t work will lead to shortages and thousands of government workers.

Most people today don’t care about skin color or gender. The far-left dwells on it. It’s not 1850 , or 1950, it’s 2024 and progress has been made. We need more and in my view it will from school improvement for our less affluent through competition school it’s a monopoly.

Remember when the post office was? Now Federal Express same day communications. And School needs to stick with reading, writing, presentation and trades which are very remunerative.

Re: Election

I’m strictly economics, defense and upward mobility for all using competitive teaching; colleges and instruction including carpentry, plumbing, but show everyone that is working toward a goal is good planning. See inflation 4 years under Trump versus 4 years under Biden. One big aspect of people want is satisfying jobs and stable family.

Tax of unrealized gain was a disastrous idea. Price controls almost as foolish. Who were the economic advisors I wonder. Running on those issues and gender modification and hatred of opponent was a big mistake. Most people all colors, genders want a chance for a good life. And Trump worked like the devil talking to people everywhere.

We love the United states. Education is failing kids. I believe in DEI I as I define it. The diversity of people in whatever it is if they achieve on merit.

E for equity of opportunity. Competition in teaching. Mix outside with local teachers and schools for economically disadvantaged. Let’s cross polarize with new ideas. Let’s train for jobs of doctors, lawyers, as well as carpenters, plumbers, nurses, tech in schools.

I want competition of schools, i.e. chartered schools. Competition lifts all. See AT&T, Canadian health care wait time, post office. Kids who can’t read or write properly result in frustration, drugs, worse.

Reparations tossed out by our Governor as a trial balloon holds people back. Why work and learn if you get free stuff?

In point of fact, Chinese coolies built railroads in California “slave wage” and were often left to die because no one bought and owned them as were African slaves. They both became free to do work for pay in the 1870s. Chinas developed capitalistic instincts and progressed, even with foreign language and a different phase.

We need private trade schools. We need career teaching competitive not controlled by a big union.

Hamas brilliantly knew what Israel would be forced to do in retaliation of civilians’ deaths. It’s not Civil War open battlefield. Contrary to Braka Obama there was no Gaza occupation. 2,300,000 Muslims, zero Jews. Jews have lived in Judea Samaria (West Bank of Jordan River) thousands of years before Islam. Why can’t 700,000 of them live there?

Yes, 700,000 Jews and 2 million Arabs live in Judea Samaria. This is like much of Europe and the Untied States. Jews lived there when Christ was born in Bethlehem. In Israel there are 2 million Arabs along with 8 million Jews. One Jewish led state out of 22 (Arab states): is this how they justify burning alive, raping and killing civilians including babies?

Arab population contrary to genocide has gone from 400,000 to 7 million from 1914 in Palestine according to Ottoman survey of this very arid region. Is this a genocide? Israel was founded in large part by 700,000 pushed from Arab countries, not just Europe by the way.

Peter

What happened on October 7 to peacenik Israelis and others was a tragedy brought on not by occupation but by hate Israeli taught Arabs from birth who won’t build an economy but will build hundreds of tunnels and weapons. Hamas knew Israel would have to take leaders and hostages. Hamas put kids and women in harms way. Hamas was brilliant at what it wanted so far.

Population even with no historical nexus changes. Muslim Turks in Germany, Muslim Algerians in France. Muslim Syrians in Denmark, not to mention Christian Mexicans, Asians in California, Texas, Arizona after Native Americans, Mexicans Angelinos, Irish, Jewish etc. Yes the English and French carves Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia for various groups. Iran, Morrocco yes Jews lived in Egypt, Syria, many for hundreds of years and wound up in Judea Samaria and Israel. There are no Jews in Gaza. There are 600,000 Jews in Judea Samaria. There once were hundreds of thousands of Jews in Persia (Iran), over one million in Egypt, hundreds of thousands in Syria, Morrocco. Why did you single out Jews living in Israel or Judea or Samaria? Populations of Arabs going from 400,000 in

1920 to 7 million in Palestine. Many drawn there by Israeli business, Israeli desalinization. Those are the facts. Arab citizens in Israel have the longest life span in Middle East and very good life opportunities. From the 7 th Century, it’s been part of Muslim dicta that once Muslims have land, its theirs in perpetuity. Thousands of years before, Israelites lived in Palestine. They were conquered numerous times by Babylonians, Greeks, Romans etc. Later Ottomans, British, Jordanians, there were 400,000 Arabs in Palestine area in 1914. See Ottoman census. Now there are 7 million or more, 7 million Jews.
