Trump is the anti-Biden

OK I always have to lead off with the fact that I am no fan of Donald Trump.  Aside from his other obvious maturity flaws, he talks about tax reduction but then does not reduce government spend.  So in order to pay for it, the government debases the currency, AKA monetizing the debt.  Inflating the money supply is a form of sneaky taxation and eventually it turns into the destruction of the money supply.  Trump did not start this but he also did nothing to oppose it.  Trump thinks that a soaring stock market which is paid for by debasement of the currency is a positive thing.  So he is absolutely not a friend to the working class even though they are the ones who seem to like him the most.  Ignorance is bliss.

With that said, Trump is not conspiring against the USA.  Hillary certainly was.  She was full on socialist, even laughing about her self proclaimed "mao suit".  She was trying to enslave everyone in the US under socialism which then devolves into communism and a police state.  And Biden?  Besides being a creepy pedo and a stuffed shirt, the man is practically disabled by Alzheimer's.  This is not a political jab at Biden.  Joe Biden is 77 years old and it has caught up with his mental capacity.  That is just a statement of cold hard fact.  Like all Alzheimer's victims, Biden has good days and bad days. But the good days are lower highs and the bad days are fall off a cliff bad.

The latest thing to note about Biden is that he is losing the ability to speak clearly.  He now slurs perceptibly in every other sentence even on his best days.  He speaks like is mouth is full of cotton.  Here is a very recent example of this.  On his worst days he is totally confused, mistaking momentarily wife for sister.  This is not a "gaffe".  This is driving down the road at 100mph when the steering wheel suddenly comes off in your hands.  Alzheimers is degenerative at an exponential rate.  Biden will be in diapers within 2-3 years.  There is zero chance that he could finish one term if elected.  Whoever runs with Biden is actually running for president.  Biden is just the placeholder.

But back to Trump.  I watched part of his recent rally in Tulsa where he connected with people even if he was not very well prepared to speak to the issues.  It was more of a complaint about bad treatment in the press.   But then I also watched part of a "students for trump"even in Phoenix and I was actually impressed with the speaking momentum he built.  It was energetic but not the usual Trump repetition with fillers such as "very very good/bad" and then repeating that 3x in slightly different ways in order to fill time.  He went from talking point to talking point spending the right amount of time, transitioning well, etc.  It was like having youth around him energized him.  I was quite impressed really, and I do not say that often of Trump speeches.

What Trump has done by this is to throw down the gauntlet in front of creepy Joe.  Think about it: where is Biden?  We only have a few months until the election yet he is not campaigning actively.  Where are his rallies?  Where are all of the usual campaign whistle stops?  It's like Sleepy Joe thinks he can spend the morning on Morning Joe denying his sexual assault on national TV and that constitutes his campaign.  He cannot possibly win on his own merits.  Yes, I know what the polls are being quoted as saying and that the vegas bookmakers are picking up on it, but this is just like in 2016 when Hillary had massive money supporting her, all the polls were in her favor blah blah blah.  The dems thought it was a shoo-in back then and many are acting like it is a shoo-in now.  I do not agree that Biden is a shoo-in.  I think he will be lucky not to have a stroke before election day.  I think the left believes it can win using dirty tricks like those that AOC applauded.  All of a sudden, let's change the long standing laws and allow vote by mail (AKA vote by dead or fictitious people).  I believe that the left is putting Biden in there regardless of his obvious mental state because they think they can steal the election with dirty tricks.  I don't see any other reason to put Biden up there like that, embarrassing himself in his senior moments when he should be enjoying his last few years in an adult community, planting flowers or golfing the rest of his life away.

I don't think it will work.  Everyone, including Mish Shedlock thinks Trump will lose.  I personally have more faith in our centrist dems than to think they will accept Biden simply for being "not Trump".  Time will tell but if Biden wants to have a chance then he will have to publicly campaign like Trump is doing, and I don't see Biden as really being able to do that anymore.  Not without having so many senior moments that he does himself more harm than good.
