Prediction Thread Part Two

Post by ceeboo »

Within the first 90 days of Trump taking office (or sooner - perhaps before he is even officially the President) what are some of your predictions?

Here are mine:

Trump will pardon Hunter Biden.

The seven Americans (perhaps three of the seven are now dead?) that are still being held hostage by the terrorist organization, Hamas, will finally be home.

The Russia/Ukraine war will end.

Your predictions?

Likely with Putin eating dinner in Kiev (formerly Kyiv).

I can tell you one thing I didn't predict. I didn't predict that Trump would make the only person in the entire Legislative Branch (Senate or House) who voted "no" on a bill against human trafficking, and has been the subject of countless investigations of sex crimes against minors, the Attorney General of the United States of America. Then again, after the Epstein tapes from last month showed that Trump maintained a secret friendship with Jeffrey Epstein while publicly claiming they had a falling out, I suppose I should have predicted it.

Things I do predict:

The economy will be incredible for the next 3-5 years. Trump is once again inheriting a strong economy that's already on a trajectory to grow. He'll again implement policies that will help make the economy run hot, ultimately setting up a secondary inflationary bomb just like the first one. Some items will cost substantially more (just like last time) as he implements tariffs, and we'll see some massive socialist bailouts again of industries that he decimates with his policies. Those bailouts, and extremist deficit spending will ultimately counteract the "felt" effects of his policies just like his last Presidency. After 3-5 years of policies bearing short-term fruit, the long-term consequences will come into play once again (and assuming a Democrat is President at that time, they'll get blamed).

Trump promised he'd bring it to an end within 48 hours of being elected. He wouldn't even need to wait to be President.

Maybe that phone call Trump said he had with Putin (that Russia denies happened) was just a concept of a peace plan though.

It was in vogue to ask how other Harris supporters were feeling after the election. My answer is my answer to this OP. That being: tomorrows headline could be "Velociraptors roaming the streets of New York" and my reaction would be, "Oh, this timeline also has Velociraptors? Makes sense."

The Trump administration will begin to do everything necessary in his overwhelming mandate: "Mr. Trump, tear down this country." Tearing down the infrastructure of the federal government, starting to end the social safety net, ending alliances with former allies, starting alliances with current enemies, handing out huge tax breaks to the wealthy, and ending safety and business regulations.

I predict that Trump will pardon most of the January 6th rioters during his first 90 days in office.
