DID TRUMP DODGE A BULLET?

Did you ever experience a broken engagement  or get turned down for a job?  It was upsetting at the time, and it took awhile to stop mourning your dashed hopes.   But then later–maybe much later– the lost lover turned out to be a bummer, and the company that refused to hire you went bust.  Or, with a more positive outcome, you found a better job, or met the love of your life.  Looking back, you realize that the loss you mourned was actually a blessing in disguise.  You dodged a bullet.   Now,  Trump supporters are grieving the Biden win during the 2020 election. But maybe it’s not a bad thing, after all.  Did Trump dodge a bullet?

did trump dodge a bullet? We may be facing stagflation when the pandemic ends.
Did Trump Dodge a Bullet? The stock market is rising, but many jobs will never come back.

The stock market is climbing on good news of the vaccine. .  But at least one financial advisor is predicting a once in a lifetime crash.  During this pandemic, millions of jobs were eliminated in retail, restaurant and other business.  Many of these jobs aren’t coming back.  How long can the government keep on printing money before we have massive inflation and higher taxes?

Instead of the robust economy everyone is looking forward to, we could have stagflation–slow economic growth, high inflation and high unemployment. They say inflation is under control, but I’m not sure what indicators they’re using. Right now, the cost of food and housing is skyrocketing.

The  cyber attack last March may lead to something  disastrous for the country.  Who knows what a hostile power is going to do with all the information they have now.  We could experience massive power outages.  Suddenly, you have no telephone, internet,  heat, light or running water.  Nothing works.  Most large organizations have generators that tide them over until the power goes back on.  But what if it doesn’t?  Generators can’t run indefinitely.  Imagine being the president of the United States during such a disaster.

Those are just two scenarios that the next President could face.  We avoided foreign  wars under Trump.  But the luck may run out with Biden, with  so many countries desperate after being ravaged by Covid-19.  Only time will tell if Trump dodged a bullet.
