We got a Sick President!!

After his first address to joint session of congress, it was looking like Trump is coming back to his senses and we were looking forward to some sensible decision making going forward. and then... 
This tweet of Trump being victimized of spying by previous administration without any inkling of the evidence to support. 

Worst part was to call a very well respected and elected President sick man/guy. 

This so called sick man was elected twice with much better electoral and popular votes than the sickest and most deplorable President in the history of United States yet!! 
This so called sick man completed his presidency and left legacy which will be there forever in the history of United States. Though time will tell but if my analysis or predictions are true, Trump may not even finish his first year, before getting impeached by his own fellow Republicans. Only hope for him to be saved will be Democrats, as this will take away sweeping victory in 2018 elections. 

Not sure what is going thru Trump's mind (if there is any)... But if he thinks, that to cover up his AG's scandal, he can create another controversy so that democrats will forget the liar AG and will focus on this.. then he may be right.. I am sure after democrats will stop asking for Sessions' resignation, he will turn over and say that he meant something else.. or maybe, he found some evidence that Obama discussed to start wire tapping etc.. basically twist and eat his own words. 

Now, what all this tells about him and more importantly, about United States of America? as he did got elected by our system and people... even if Russia meddled into our elections by hacking and taking out all the negative reports about Hillary.. and helping Trump win the Presidency.. Onus is on America and it's electorate to understand and take right decision making. Though, separate topic, but I do believe that it was Democratic Party and it's so called elites/heads who made him The President.. Nevertheless, we elected him.. It does tells about us that we are getting too complacent and crybaby about the conditions, for which most of them, we ourselves are responsible.

In a way, it was good thing.. I think, after this people will remember for a long time, what a decent or good President means and this is not the job where anyone and everyone can assume to take over. This presidency will remain a very good case for someone like Trump (though I doubt if there will be anyone like him) to think about getting elected to this office. 
As we say in India.. Whatever happens, happens for good!!

Implosion of Democratic Party - Unimaginable consequences!!

Democrats are making lot of noise against all kind of decisions (executive or non executive) from Trump administration.. In reality, they themselves are responsible to ensure his win to White House. They have to admit that they messed up by unnecessarily promoting Hilary at the cost of Bernie. Bernie could have easily excited critical mass of youngsters and liberals to vote for him to defeat Trump in electoral votes as well. In reality, Hilary wasn't able to excite most of the voters enough to move them to ballot boxes.. Whereas Trump Supporters though less in numbers were super excited and pushed for him. 

Despite all this, if they still elect Nancy Pelosi back as their leader, then only God (if any) help them. 

On top of that, I don't understand rationale of these demonstrations and Women Marches against Trump. What the hell these folks were doing on November 8th. On November 8th, they were all sleeping comfortably hoping that Hilary won't mind missing one vote. Well.. those few votes are responsible for where we are today. Now, reality is that Trump is democratically elected leader of this country and respect not only his opinions but also folks who took pain to go to Ballot Box on Nov 8th.. 

Not that I am big fan of Hilary.. still voted for her as I strongly felt that Trump was bigger evil. and he IS.. unfortunately, he is playing with people's mind. giving them false hope of decent blue collar job on their high school diplomas.. maybe for few years, they may have jobs.. but ultimately, this protectionism and visibly direct hatred towards rest of the world is going to bring down the very fabric of the country. In my view, what Trump is trying to do is ultra ultra socialism or even communism.. trying to save/create jobs by carrot or stick.. and we all know that socialism and communism doesn't work.. It collapses nations.. 

Only thing which had worked in this country is the top and bottom quality immigration. This country has attracted both best of best talent from all over the world which helped USA become superpower.. as well bottom most (for the lack of better words) type of immigration, which had provided desperately needed hands for all kind of jobs to support middle and upper middle class of this country. Agreed, no system is perfect.. but it was working perfectly fine for this country.. 

What was not working was white lower middle class of this country which was looking for decent blue collar jobs after their high school diplomas hoping to make decent by their early thirties.. 

If Trump or for that matter anyone wants to do anything for them (blue collar workers), then they have to make them understand that blue collar era is gone!! There is not going to be any blue collar workers in few decades at the most. What will be there is: "what we call knowledge Worker"!! even basic bachelors degree is no longer enough for coming days. They need to dream more than simple blue collar jobs. If Trump really want to do something for them, them maybe, offer them free enrollment in universities (excluding Trump University!!) to come upto speed on 21st century skills. That is the only hope for them. 

Otherwise, they are simply cutting the tree where they are sitting.. Bernie was trying to do same by offering all kinds of free social programs.. which now looks so good as compared to Trump's exec orders.. These orders are simply destroying the very foundation of this country and hence making very long term damage not only internally but globally by giving mantle of world leadership and vision to rest of the world.. for anyone sensible country to grab it and run with it.
