My Thoughts Based On Pure Supposition and Other Matters.


Always a price to pay:The recession has hit everybody really hard. My neighbor got a pre-declined credit card offer in the mail.

CEO's are now playing miniature golf.
Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.
I saw a Mormon with only one wife.
If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and ask if they meant you or them.
McDonald's is selling the 1/4 ouncer.
Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America.
Parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned their children's names.
My cousin had an exorcism but couldn't afford to pay for it and they re-possessed her!
A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico.
A picture is now only worth 200 words.
When Bill and Hillary travel together, they now have to share a room.
The Treasure Island casino in Las Vegas is now managed by Somali pirates.
And, finally...I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Hotline. I got a call center in Pakistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got 
all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck.

There are enough Trump Haters who believe he can do nothing right so the mass media continues to have a large and receptive audience. Therefore,  I doubt the nation's mood and divisiveness will change any time soon.  Even if Trump wins re-election, unless he retains the Senate and takes The House, I suspect his second term in office will continue to be a battlefield.

If I am basically correct, the damage done to the nation will reflect among our so-called allies and thus, reverberate around a world that needs leadership. Lacking that, any economic downturn, the consequence of the Coronavirus, will be prolonged.

I believe we are in for a long and painful experience and this seems to be what Pelosi and her radicals want in the hope capitalism will be brought to its knees.

Anyone who believes Soros is not behind this is dreaming. There are those who benefit from chaos.

I am ending this memo with a personal thought and admittedly my viewpoint has no basis in fact and is all supposition.

I will begin with an old phrase: "With two you get egg roll." 

By this, I mean those among China's more aggressive military members of their Communist Regime gained the upper hand. How? Whether by accident or purpose someone in the Wuhan Lab,who was unauthorized, weaponized a virus.  Because Trump humiliated Ji with his open rebuke and tariff impositions this weakened Ji among his party members and gave the aggressive members of the military an opportunity to accomplish two goals.

First, they were able to bring an end to Trump's ability to boast about America's soaring economy and second, they were able to undercut any economic benefit accruing to Trump in a political sense.
Asians are highly sensitive to humiliation whether it be public or not and Trump overplayed his strong hand by boasting. By withholding information about the  weaponized virus' escape members of the Chinese military were able to accomplish a bio weapon attack under the cover of an accident. Second, Chinese negotiators insisted on  an out clause, pertaining to matters of force majeur, ie. in the event of a pandemic, that allowed them to suspend  terms of the treaty.  In other words, they could suspend purchases from America as I believe they have.  Again I have no proof  this has begun.
Now the shoe is on the other foot. Whatever damage has been done to China's economy has been more than matched by the decline in the  world's economy. Furthermore, America is now in a recession and the timing and results of any recovery is problematical.
Just my thinking.
