President Trump Will Not Serve Out His Four Year Term In Office.

 The day he leaves office is not certain, but the day is certain to come.  the reasons are so obvious and exhausting and visible every moment and day.  The details have already been exposed.  His every day exposure of governing is chaotic, uncertain, toxic for everything he touches, a thirst for dictatorship to rule over people's lives, the government itself, private functions, education, a disregard for the constitution, law and order and the judicial system.  A hateful attitude toward veterans who sends the National Guard for domestic operations as his political tool which is a disgrace to our armed forces.

Trump's age, his mental unfitness for office, a lack of respect for everything that matters.  The coming of a severe economic recession of his own doing, a continuing rise in inflation and a GOP party of ditto heads who look the other way and refuse to carry out their duties as members of congress.  It will all come to a head, explode and Trump will be over run by the extent of the damage.  He will have no choice, leave or be impeached once again for the third time.  This time he will be convicted by the senate 

More than enough of his coward GOP ditto heads in congress will still be cowards and vote against him to save their own self sorry political life.  They will join the majority democrats and vote with them to oust the convicted criminal Trump.  And the day the criminal leaves office, America the Beautiful will be Beautiful once again.

Two Phony Law and Order Elected Officials. President Donald Trump and Louisiana GOP Governor Jeff Landry.

 President Trump's rap sheet is a long one well aware of by the people.  A convicted criminal (34 felony counts) a sexual abuser, a fraudster and a President who betrayed his oath of office when he sent his mob rioters to the nation's capital in Washington D.C. on Jan. 6, 2021 to try and overturn the Presidential election using force.  His many attacks against judges, the rule of law and the constitution are well known.  So now, he puts the spotlight back on Washington D.C. by sending in the National Guard to take control of a local matter called a crime emergency that does not exist.  The Guard will just be there as a fixture and the hard work will still be done by the local governing body.

Trump's phony law and order action came 4 years and 6 months too late.  He failed to send the National Guard to D.C. on Jan 6 when he ordered his riot mob to attack the capitol and stop the carnage.  In fact he refused to do so even after his advisers advised him to do so.  It was his own lawless mob and he was not about to stop it and restore law and order.  Trump's latest Guard move in D.C. was just a political move to deflect from his problem concerning Jeffery Epstein, his tariffs, his failure on Ukraine and a chaotic administration of ignorance.

In a Times Picayune article of 8/19/25 we learn that Louisiana's little boy governor Jeff Landry, a well known Trump ditto head, is sending 135 National Guard troops to D.C.to assist Trump's effort there.  The article quoted Landry as saying:  WE ARE A NATION OF LAW AND ORDER.  OUR CAPITAL IS A REFLECTION OF OUR NATIONS RESPECT, BEAUTY AND STANDARDS.  WE CANNOT ALLOW OUR CITIES TO BE OVERCOME BY VIOLANCE AND LAWLESSNESS.  I AM PROUD TO SUPPORT THEIR MISSION TO RETURN SAFETY AND SANITY TO WASHINGTON D.C.

That Landry's quote applies to what took place on Jan 6, 2021 in Washington D.C. when Trump sent his uncontrolled riot mob to the capital, not what is taking place at this time in D.C.  Does any one remember Landry making this statement on Jan 6 when the nation's capital was being disrespected and abused?  Trump even pardoned all those rioters who were convicted for their lawlessness.  On that day, the capital was overcome by violence and there was no safety and sanity.  Trump by his own actions prove he is no supporter of law and order.  And his party is right behind him.

Trump and many in his party are still trying to sell the lie that the 2020 Presidential election was rigged.  And now, Trump and his party are trying to rig future elections with their redistricting plans to change the voting maps.  The FBI's past stats on crime year in and year out show that 7 out of the 10 top states that lead in crime are governed by the GOP.  

And that really says it all.

Louisiana Loses $156 Million Solar Energy Fund Thanks To Trump, The GOP and Louisiana's Voters Who Voted For Trump.

 In a Times Picayune story of August 9 Louisiana was notified that the fund, already approved and granted to Louisiana was cancelled by the EPA and that the funds no longer existed.  The $156 million for Louisiana was part of a $7 billion program for solar energy.  The monies were part of the $27 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund approved by the Biden administration's signature climate legislation, The Inflation Reduction Act passed by the democratic controlled congress.

Thanks to Trump and the GOP's recently passed One Big Ugly Bill, the solar energy funds were cancelled.  Louisiana voters elected Trump and the GOP representing Louisiana in congress even though they were aware of their opposition to Biden's policy on solar energy.  This decision comes only weeks after Trump announced he was cancelling wind farms in the Gulf of Mexico that Louisiana was depending on to develop.

The Times Picayune article disclosed that approximately 15,000 Louisiana households were expected to benefit from the program and Louisiana's Energy Department had earlier stressed how the program to generate 112 megawatts of solar power would positively impact the state.  States with democratic leaderships and other organizations across the country are signaling they will fight the EPA's termination of the funds. 

Everyone in Louisiana understands how important alternate energy resources are to the people and the state and how alternate energy can reduce the toxic pollution industries are known to produce.  The $7 billion investment in solar energy for the nation and Louisiana's portion of $156 million is a reasonable and productive venue.  But Trump and the GOP's one big UGLY bill changed all of that.  

Louisiana may be a Trump and GOP state for politics, but that does not make it a good state for the people's needs and well being.  It is playing out front and center and the worst is yet to come.

Trump Extends His Corruption To The Bureau of Labor Staticstics.

 The convicted criminal President Donald Trump did not like July's job creation numbers so he fired the agent in charge and said the numbers were fixed.  The report also noted that the job numbers for the previous 3 months were reduced by 258,000 jobs.  Reductions or additions to the job numbers are nothing new to Presidential administrations or congress and take place because of the way jobs are reported by the business community.  

Simply said, Trump's actions are in line with his thirst to destroy everything the federal government touches so he and his administration will be the lone power to tell people what to do and how to live their lives.  And there is an additional part of the firing to install his unfit stooges and clowns to ultimately reverse the fact that his first administration lost 2.7 million jobs.  He actually said he would create 25 million jobs.  Everyone knows Trump is a serial liar and now he wants his appointed stooge and clown to lie about future job creation on his watch.  Trump has already lied about the economy in his second term.

The following facts will tell the story just how bad Trump and other GOP administrations record on job creation has been for the past 44 years from January 1981-January 2025 vs. Democratic Administrations.

Reagan served 8 years,  created 16.1 million jobs

Bush 41 served 4 years  created 2.5 million jobs

Clinton served 8 years   created 22.7 million jobs

Bush 43 served 8 years  created 1.3 million jobs

Obama  served 8 years  created 11.3 million jobs

Trump  served  4 years  lost  2.7 million jobs

Biden  served 4 years  created 15 million jobs

Total net jobs created by GOP in 24 years  19.9 million gross minus 2.7 million lost equals net jobs of 17.2 million jobs created.

Total net jobs created by Democrats in 20 years 49 million jobs created with no  losses.

Reagan was the only GOP President that left office with a lower unemployment rate than when he took office.  (explains why GOP so bad at creating jobs.)  All three Democratic Presidents left office with a lower unemployment rate than when they took office.

A economic recession began on all 4 GOP President's watch.  None began on any of the 3 Democrat's watch.

Clinton administration created more jobs in 8 years than all four GOP Presidents did in their 24 years of service.  And President's Obama and Biden each created more jobs while in office than Bush 41, Bush 43 and Trump did on  their watch.

The highest sustained unemployment rate in the last 70 years took place on Reagan's watch when it stood at over 10% for 10 straight months from September 1982 till June 1983. 

This writer uses the 44 year period named above because that is when Reagan started the propaganda that the democratic party were the big spenders and had no real economic plans.  But if one looks at the facts from 1929-1981 the preceding 52 years, one will find that Democratic administrations outperformed the GOP administrations by a wider margin than the later period.

The actual facts tell us that over the past 92 years the democratic party job creation record can be described as robust while the GOP's job creation record can be described as poor.  And Donald Trump kept that poor job creation record in his first term in office.

Crime In America Drops Once Again In 2024

 So says the annual FBI report issued on August 6.  The FBI stats show that violent crime fell 4.5% in 2024 compared to 2023 and that the murder and non-negligent manslaughter rates fell 14.9%.  The downward trend continued on Biden's watch since the record murder rate increase on Trump's watch in 2020 during COVID.  That increase was almost 30% higher than in 2019.

For those who accepts facts instead of lies and mis-information by Trump, his party and a enabling media, it comes to no surprise that the reduction in crime took place on Biden and the democratic watch.  It is one more issue where the democrats govern best.  Trump and his party has a huge problem because they represent a party bent on destroying the rule of law and order.  No one represents law and order who sends or supports a riot mob to the nation's capitol to overturn a legitimate Presidential election.  

Trump and his party has reached a new low in his second term by sending masked federal agents to do the work of government.  A new blow to law and order in a democracy.  When Trump leaves office a Democrat will have to clean up the mess he leaves behind.  That is the way GOP administrations end.

America's Childish President Donald Trump Displays Once Again His Mental Unfitness To Serve in The White House.

 The little child Trump on Friday August 1, received the bad news that the economy created only 73,000 jobs in July per the U.S. Labor Department's monthly report.  And with that report, the childish President fired the Labor Department's agent in charge of producing such report, said it was fake news and claimed the report to be politically motivated.  The report also noted that unemployment increased to 4.2%. 

The firing, the placing of blame and attacks on others are not new.  It is the game children like Trump play to deny their own failures.  And it fits in with Trump's second term where he seeks to discredit and destroy everyone and everything that has to do with government.  This latest attempt to put his own ditto head people to now report on the monthly job numbers is an attempt to rewrite past labor department job numbers and eventually revise the fact that 2.7 million jobs were lost in Trump's first term in office.  

This latest childish action by the President is another MAJOR piece of EVIDENCE why Trump's mental unfitness for office presents a GRAVE danger to America the Beautiful.  And that really says it all.

The U.S. Economy, Job Creation and the Unemployment Rate for July 2025.

 The U.S. Labor Department reported the economy added 73,000 jobs in July and the unemployment rate came in at 4.2%, it was 4.1% in June.  It was the 54th straight month of positive job growth.  The department also reported job creation for the previous 3 months were adjusted down by 258,000 jobs.  July's job numbers surprised no one except those who do not understand past precedent of GOP administrations for the past 90 years.

In Trump's first 7 months in office, 962,000 jobs were created and during his 55 months in office as President (first term plus 7 months in present term) his administration has lost 1,738,000 jobs.  (2.7 million in first term less 962,000 created in his first 7 months in office in his present term.  The unemployment rate when Biden left office was 4% and in July 2025 it was 4.2% so unemployment is up on Trump's watch so far.

In July 2021, Biden's first term in office 943,000 jobs were created and for the first 7 months of his administration 3,917,000 jobs were created.  The unemployment rate in July 2021 was 5.4% and when he took office it was 6.3%, unemployment was down on Biden's watch.

The GDP for the 2nd quarter of 2025 on Trump's watch was 3%.  The GDP for the 2nd quarter of 2021 on Biden's watch was 6.7%.  At the end of June 2025 inflation was 0.6% higher than the Feds 2% target area and for the year 2021 during Biden's administration, inflation stayed within Feds target area.

It should be understood that July's job numbers are only one month of data and should not be taken as a trend. The most important thing to remember that GOP administration have a poor record on the economy that goes back the last 90 years except for the Reagan administration.  And during the past 90 years the Reagan administration is the only GOP President that left office with a lower unemployment rate than when taking office.  That tells the story of a GOP that is terrible when it comes to creating jobs and governing over a good economy.  During that same period of time, every democratic administration except one left office with a lower unemployment rate than when taking office.  And that one was President Carter as the unemployment rate on his watch was the same when he left office as when he took office.

The numbers here in tells the story that the Biden administration governed the economy much better than Trump has done in both his first term and 7 months into his second term.  The media, Trump, the GOP and the negative voices lied about Biden's economy because he was a quiet President who got the job done.  They even tried to sell the notion of a economic recession that would take place on Biden's watch and were wrong for two years running.

What is taking place on Trump's watch so far in 2025 was predicted in several PolitiDose commentaries in December 2024 and January 2025.  PolitiDose commentary even predicted what would take place in Trump's first term prior to taking office and what would take place during President George W. Bush's administration before he took office.  Precedent tells us that future GOP administrations will be like the failed past. 

And that really says it all.
