WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE? ASKS TRUMP: ANSWER: PLENTY!

 

…Gary Trudeau’s version of “The Donald”

 

 

 

Donald Trump’s ideas for bringing back jobs for Americans is totally ridiculous

 

Recenly, while listening to the two political campaigns, I came to the point that I really had it with one of Donald Trump’s approaches in trying to obtain support from the nation’s minority populations. 

 

This item I have a problem with is his asking the blacks and the Hispanic minorities, “What do you have to loose in voting for me over Hillary?”

 

OK, I’ll bite on this comment with this response.

 

The nation’s youth and the minority groups 20-30 years ago were able to work their way through high school and they could then find a job or learn a trade that allowed them to get a full-time, 40 hour a week job.  Well folks, that era has been gone now for decades. 

 

Those jobs are now either being fulfilled by a robot or they exist in another country where the workers are paid $1.50 an hour, or less.  If your plant in the Rust-Belt towns of America at one time needed 3000 employees, today, if the company still exists, they probably only need 300 employees.  Or if they are mostly automated, maybe only need 30 employees.  The thing about America, since the nation’s inception, is that nothing ever stands still.

 

Those jobs that Trump says that he would be bringing back, most don’t even exist anymore in the real world.

 

So, just what is it that these workers have to lose?

 

Well, let’s look at what Donald Trump says he’s going to do, and how he’s going to pay for it.  First, Donald Trump never says how he’s going to bring those phantom jobs back.  He never says how he’s going to pay for what it will take to bring them back, or to what cities or areas they will come to. 

 

Trump also never gives anyone any specifics as to how he’s going to do anything he promises. 

 

So, what Trump’s supporter’s have to lose is virtually everything!

 

To do whatt Donald Trump says he would do has been looked at, and there are real answers.  First, if his promises to bring the jobs back were even possible, it would take as much time as it was for the nation to lose those jobs.. That is decades.  If, in the mean time, you don’t want to flip burgers or make espresso dirnks in America, you’d better figure out how to obtain some higher levels of education.

 

The world has changed, and there are very few jobs you can get today without having an education above high school that coild give you a good, living income.  Especially one that could last for 30-40 years and provide a real retirement program.  If you want a job likethat, you need to either go to work for the city, the county, the US government, the US Post Office, or you could join the military or run for political office. 

 

Today, Donald Trump is the PT Barnum of our era, and worse.  As Bartnum always said, “There’s a sucker born every minute,” and today, most of them support Donald Trump.

 

Now, don’t get me wrong.  I don’t mean that these at stupid Americans.  These individuals are hurting and they just want to believe what Trump says.  Unfortunately, they will be the first to be hurt by his unrealistic promises.

 

This man has made his money mainly by receiveing a giant inhertitance from his father, and by dealing with his 3,400 law suits for failure to pay his suppliers.  How many of us can say we have been offered these same opportunities?

 

My point here is not that I am a dyed-in-the-wool Hillary supporter, as she has her own questionable issues, but I sure as hell am not in support of a bogus candidate like Donald Trump.

 

If you really want to understand Trump, you should acquire Gary Trudeau’s new Doonsbury book on Donald Trump.  It’s fun to read, and it is Trump unfolded to the truth.  Trudeau’s new book titled: “YUGE”, Trump” is the complete collection of Trudeau’s Doonsbury strip on the many years of Trudeau’s view of Donald Trump.  And these strips were not previously meant to do or be what they eventually became.  Which is a complete mirror of what Triump is as a person and as a presidential candidate.  And rermber, Gary Trudeau has been following Trump since the 1980’s.

 

Once you read and laugh your way through the Trudeau book, you will understand that Trudaeu has properly unveiled and categorized the real Trump, and it definitely ain’t a pretty sight.
