This
COULD be a very bad summer/fall for the Republicans. The following
AREN'T predictions....but they
ARE possibilities....and some of them have a
VERY good chance of coming to fruition:
1) Support for serious change to gun laws continues to spread, not only among students....but among businesses as well. In addition....there are a growing number of REPUBLICANS that "break rank" with their pals in the NRA and Congress, and want serious gun legislation.
2) News on RussiaGate
CONTINUES to come out against Trump and his cronies....and it continues to be bad news for Donnie and company. He chooses to
NOT talk with Mueller "over dinner".....and he ends up taking the 5th amendment (as well as a 5th of scotch
AFTERWARDS...and he doesn't drink:). By this summer....the number of indictments in RussiaGate exceed the total number of indictments in Watergate.
3) The stock market....after 12 months of rising during Trump's time in office......hit a "snag" in February....which turns out to be the first down month on the way to a
SIGNIFICANT correction (greater than 20%....perhaps as much as 38%) over the 8 month period from this February, through this coming September. All that talk of "winning" seems to disappear for Traitor Don.
4) The Arctic ice sheet has a "bad year".....heading towards a new record low this coming September. It gets harder and harder to ignore what is happening....
5) The electoral map continues to look dismal for the Republicans. By early summer it looks like they are
LIKELY to lose the House....and they may lose some critical members in the Senate (say hi to Ted Cruz) as well. What started in
MARCH as a few Republicans talking about the possibility of impeachment....has grown. As well...it looks like Republican Rick Scott will likely lose in his race for Governor of Florida....
AND....the Florida Attorney General race also was won by a Democrat. I sure hope Traitor Don doesn't have any property in Florida where he did anything illegal or the
STATE charges could put him away for many years.
6) Exxon Mobile....what was once the most valuable publicly held company on the planet, has continued to drop in share price. After hitting over $104 in 2014.....it has continued its "two steps down and one step up" travels....and now is under $60 in September of this year.
THAT....would be a rough year. And yes....it certainly could get worse....OR...it might not be nearly as bad as the painting above. Time will tell....
