WASHINGTON, MARCH 22 – Sunday’s CBS Face the Nation panel placed most their bets on Donald Trump having a lock on the Republican party presidential nomination. It’s a hard sell for the Establishment Media to tell the narrative of the Election Cycle without up turning the status quo in Washington. Once Donald Trump started racking up delegates to the summer Convention politicians of all stripes in the Congress have had target on their political backs. Targets put on the backs of these Do Nothing officials because Donald Trump has energized electorate by packaging the anger and resentment of the voter base of both parties. Swept away – GONE – are the social issues that FOX News has been trumpeting for going on three decades. Donald Trump as the nation’s cheerleader: Either on your side as the New Republicans or the enemy as the Dems and status quo regard him. Just how many times can the Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street append the tag business mogul to Donald Trump on Page 2. And reality tv star in Page 2? The Grand Fix has held the electorate hostage ever since Ronald Reagan packed up Nancy’s astrology books and headed home to his California ranch … … Leaving Congressional Republicans to turn out the base with cost free social issues: Block Gun Control – Block Universal Healthcare – Block Civil Rights for all Americans. The status quo was last ousted during the Vietnam war of the 1960s. The premise of the status quo was two fold: The United States must stop the spread of communism. Opponents of the war are just college bums. Never mind that in their death bed confessions the architects of the war all fell over themselves with apologies and acknowledgement that it was all a big mistake. The status quo today is the Establishment: National politicians – Big Banks – Telcoms to pick a few. New York real estate tycoon Donald Trump wants us to know he’s going to change the rules for business. He’s bringing home Apple manufacturing. Maybe bedding and towels are gonna be returning to the Carolinas. Hold on there. Here’s Donald’s problem. Nobody wants to be put to work on assembly lines making stuff like how the Apple’s do it in China. Hungry youngsters living in dormitories far away from home doing assembly work. The status quo – the Explainers – would have us just leave it there. Another Trump scatter brain scheme. But that is not the point. Neither is Building the Wall. The point is that Donald Trump is channeling the everyman’s anger at the status quo. It’s convenient for the status quo Playbook of Washington politicians and New York cable news has no vocabulary for this channeling. So what they do is just throw stuff at the wall and see if it sticks. Paul Ryan chimes in on the Klu Klux Klan. Jeb! Bush snarls Trump isn’t presidential. And of course Trump doesn’t like the black people, they chant. Or the handicap people. Or Muslims. Or blue collar people. This is the chatter of the talking heads – It’s all about Trump. And not a word about how the status quo is screwing Every Day Joe. Right. Let’s all believe Donald Trump is hated by all these folks when they’ve encountered him. There was a day in America – a memory only as far away as your grandparents’ childhood – that folks still went a locally owned bank. Textiles were woven in the Carolinas. The local tv station was just that – locally owned. Small manufacturing was found in small communities. Every now is Big Box venues. Take banking: We were told by the politicians back in Bill Clinton’s day +the banks needed to become competitive to make a profit. So Congress let them merge into like a handful. With 29% penalty interest rates. Donald Trump channels the anger in chunks. Festering just beneath is the surface anger everyone knows Big Everything is taking away and giving to the 1 percent. These seismic changes to our economic lifehave all but gutted out the nation’s economic fabric. With the knowing collusion of both parties in Congress. It’s all about Trickle Down : Free Trade economics. Bernie is popular with the young because they’ve figured it out about the Telecoms and the Banks. Hillary holds onto the Democrat that remains loyal to what they believe she and the party have accomplished in spite of the Bush family. The Economic Agenda perpetrated by the Congress has gutted out the core of American manufacturing. Donald Trump would have us believe that he is gonna get the Apples and towel weavers put back in place on American soil. His blue collar base knows that isn’t gonna happen anytime soon. Yet Donald’s promises have resonance because Donald has harnessed a huge megaphone which is effectively mowing down the Congress at it’s knees. And the Establishment Media is helpless to bail them out. On economics Hillary joins Donald with very little on offer. As a Democrat she knows in a four year White House turn not one new technology building factory is likely to get set up and running. The making of things – whether it is the creative minds of the next generation or industrial goods – takes not a village but a pipeline. Pipelines come about because Congress enacts legislation to protect and revitalize an industry. States orchestrate investment from business to expand where there is a capable work force. Free Trade is the exact opposite of Domestic Trade Protection – DTP. One White House administration after another has been an enabler of the manufacturing pipeline being sent off shore. Neither Hillary, Donald or the national parties have any clue how to establish a new production cycle like the Japanese. New industries come about by enabling legislation, business investment and most importantly a social framework that brings together hierarchies of skilled labor and anchored in communities to the industry’s pipeline. Donald Trump does not have clue how to run a Division level office of the civil service. Hillary doesn’t have a clue how to set up an expansive new industrial labor pipeline. Her only contribution to the economic debate has been a silly promise that college loan debt will be paid back slower as the interest continues to ka-ching a long. This is the political action item the Democrats have yet to tackle. It’s a given that assembly line manufacturing is never gonna return stateside. Attaining status as a service economy nation puts a huge chunk of folks into receivership. There is only Medicaid and Section 8 housing to fill the financial gap of the low income wage earner – and the unemployed. The Democrat tacticians are just as complacent on economic action items as the Republicans. The party has been getting away with it’s empty agenda because the rhetoric of promises and hope bridges what the family and good schools can provide. New industries come about by enabling legislation, business investment and most importantly a social framework that brings together hierarchies of skilled labor and anchored in communities to the industry’s pipeline. Donald Trump does not have clue how to run a Division level office of the civil service. Hillary doesn’t have a clue how to set up an expansive new industrial labor pipeline.
