2025.08.12 Daily Thread – American Stories: Trust Trump…And Big Beautiful Tariffs

As our Kal continues to accurately say and which has become a code statement on here, “Trust Trump”. Today’s opener is dedicated to the economic reasons of why we should do that. We will be back next week to resume the Declaration signers.

Many of you may be like me. I only trust the Lord completely, then wifey, and down the line. The first two have earned my complete trust; I go down with the ship with them. As for the topic of trusting Trump, observations and experience have taught me that he is outstanding and fully trustworthy in many specific areas. None of us are perfect and everybody will have their own opinions on any weaknesses President Trump has demonstrated he has in the past. This latter point is not the purpose of this opener. This is about how we finally have a POTUS who is executing a plan that will take the rest of the world off our backs.

My first piece of advice is to ignore anything the main stream pundits say as well as many politicians who are stuck in the past. There is no modern day reference on which to base their antiquated analysis that will adequately explain what is happening. Which is exactly why they are astounded they are so wrong and POTUS Trump has been so right about his economic plans including the use of tariffs. President Trump has not only beat them at the game, he changed the rules to it without them grasping he was doing it. The following article summarizes it well.

In my opinion we should Trust Trump in many areas in addition to economic matters. There is also his leadership with the illegals invasion, strategic military actions, world peace, law and order, real estate usage, natural resources, world leadership, jobs, education, political endorsements… well, most things relating to being POTUS of the greatest country on earth.

Brave New Economic World

We can see that the pundits and pseudo economists proved they did not know didly about what they were opining about. But Diddley knows,

The Alpha is back in charge in America. You know it is true. 😀

As you can see there is a major reason why The Lion said “tariffs” may be his favorite word. By the time this opener posts, he will have negotiated nearly $20 trillion of investment commitments into America. The results from it all will be incredible. With it he is authorizing and EPA is fast tracking approval of electrical power plant generation on site of the projects that need it that are built and owned by the investing company. Do you fully realize what that does? It means power generation for many manufacturing companies will gravitate to being off the primary national electricity grid not only with new plants of new investments, but also with existing large industrial consumers of power that will undoubtedly be permitted to do likewise. In addition these new generators of power will be able to sell excess power to other customers and the existing grid’s suppliers. All of it makes the grid safer in the event of attack or natural disaster. This innovative approach will spread worldwide and create another major industry for American interests. The very methods being used will stabilize energy costs and diversify the sources of fuel that are utilized. All of which America has ample supply and access.

Next, add in the opening of federally controlled lands for fuels and minerals production. Then add in all the suppliers, manufacturing support, distribution, and service companies who will be integral to the new manufacturing and utility operations. Then, add in the housing, schools, retail, professionals, etc. needed to support the communities whose populations will be affected by this growth.

Mind blown…

To better understand and for the uninitiated into the world of macro economics and finance – what PDT and supporters are doing with tariffs and trade deals is world defining change. The trade efforts are bringing peace to many contested parts of the world. Paradigm shift does not even come close to describing it. He is having fun like a kid in a candy store doing it.

There is no way to turn this economic ship of positive change around and head back to port; it has irreversibly sailed for the brave new world. The trillions are coming to our home to roost. When the Euros bent the knee and the deal was announced, the death rattle sounded for the future of the existing operations of the cabal. To be sure they will morph into something else that operates on the fringe. But they no longer hold the cards.

To use TradeBait vernacular – PDT got other people to invest their and other people’s money into America to the ultimate benefit of We the People. They pay us for the privilege of doing business with us while hiring and training us for the related highly compensated jobs. The numbers made better sense to do that than to pay the higher tariffs PDT imposed. Yet, they are still paying some level of tariffs as well as taxes along with some investing cash into the Trump/Bessent controlled version of a public investment fund like Trump’s buddies use in SA.

Meanwhile, his handpicked cabinet related to national security is running off or deporting the Dem’s illegal, under the table slave labor and traffickers who have undercut wages, jobs, elections, and lives of We the People. Next on the agenda is to go hard on the cartels and take them out before they even smell our borders.

Cool.

What The Founders Thought

However, much of the economic might being exerted is not a new concept. It has been developed and staged over the past 250 years to be rolled out when ready and as needed. Again, here is the archived letter from Alexander Hamilton to Robert Morris that I posted in American Stories.- Part 21 a couple of weeks ago.

Many know that Hamilton was our original “tariffs” guru. Fewer understand the depth of what those two genius founders understood of the interrelating factors. If you want to know more about the tariffs subject, Alexander Hamilton’s official activities, and the politics at that time; please take time to read the linked informative analysis.

Just like in those days, once again we find ourselves in a similar position today. This time around PDT has the majority support of Congress and the authority as POTUS that Hamilton did not fully have.

What was already known and then expanded upon by our founding fathers has been noted, researched, and chronicled over all of the years that followed; particularly in the areas of economics, military, and the law. A base of economic knowledge relating to worldwide activities has been built. Economic strategies have been developed for dealing with a myriad of situations, conditions, nations, and leaders.

President Trump, applicable cabinet, and economists have studied it all and are using the most current methods and technology in coordination with the best and brightest America has to offer. Then his team negotiates trade deals with the best sharks in the world handling it from our side while he acts in the closer role. Nobody does it better than us because our guys and gals think outside of the box and are always well prepared. What is different is the peace deals he negotiates between former enemies frequently have trade deals attached to America and our interests. So, America wins on trade with both parties as they learn to be friends instead of enemies without the deep state creating mischief and pitting them against each other. That takes them out of the cabal’s clutches and adds more valuable information and data in addition to the trade.

The historical downside has always been that nobody ignores the advantages created more than us as well. We get fat, happy and lazy; then fall asleep behind the wheel. Sometimes it happens intentionally due to political and business corruption. As a result we know what our kryptonite has been.

Donald J. Trump has got this. The America First MAGA movement, the white hats, and many other nations in the world now have his back. Most importantly God spared President Trump’s life to be His servant for a time such as this. The Donald himself knows that to be true and openly states it. We have a deep, growing bench of America First MAGA leaders and supporters in important roles. There is zero doubt in my mind that the Hillbilly Middie can take it to the next level when #47 is done. Even lil Marco has proven his commitment and done an exceptional job at State.

Current Situation

As Americans we have been enticed to buy lower cost stuff because the Chi-coms do not care about human rights and 401-k plans. We are a nation conditioned to consuming mass quantities of products of all types. However, the purchases perpetuate their scheme and actual power. They use controlled and slave labor to produce the stuff at lower costs. International business conglomerates design products and use the Chi-coms to produce them at those lower costs, then resell to the consumers worldwide who fall for the fake promotions, sponsored media reports, and ads. Add in the politicians that the people elect who believe it is good business in their states to establish relations with the godless communists and offer special deals using tax payer money for locating businesses to their states; for personal gain of course. I

n essence the international corporate piranha that use Chyna and other totalitarian regimes operate irrespective of nations. Their sole goals are to survive, provide enough products the customers want, make good profits, and grow even more tentacles by whatever means necessary.

That has been the picture in America for decades pre-Donald J. Trump as #45 and #47. That is what is changing so dramatically. As an example, some reading this may still pay or remember paying a cover charge at a club or entertainment venue. The charge went to covering the costs of the entertainment. The venue had something of value you wanted to see, so you paid to get in and then paid some more for the food and libations. That is what President Trump and team are doing with other nations and corporate conglomerates. There is a charge for doing business here because we have something of great value they want – capable workers, more than adequate natural resources and infrastructure, quality products/services, and many paying customers. They can choose to pay a larger cover charge with the tariffs to access our markets, or, they can pay a smaller one or even none under stated conditions along with providing financial and manufacturing investment into America. Most are opting for the latter. They know their investments are safe here and over time their costs will be lower as America leads from the front with AI and technology. With the lower taxes locked in long term from the BBB and a lower cost of energy that reduces production as well as transportation costs – foreign investors are jumping at the opportunity provided them.

So naysayers have to ask themselves; what do these very intelligent, wealthy, and established leaders from around the world know that entices them to do what PDT is dictating, that they do not know?

The cost to produce those products will be controlled in America because for the first time in a very long time the tariffs are leveling the playing field and American leadership is reducing the costs and red tape to corporations to invest big and do business here. Distribution costs will be lower than shipping here from other parts of the world. Our officials are also providing the things that are critically necessary relating to ample access to electricity, water, land, transportation, a competent workforce with training support, reduced regulatory requirements and so on. As we assert ourselves in the domestic energy sector, production costs drop in relation to revenues received. This leads to greater profits and rising stock valuations.

Since robotics and AI are going to drive modern production lines, there is a reduced need for massive numbers of employees that would necessitate an aggressive worker visa program for the purpose. American citizens win as a result.

All of it leads to a much larger, financially stronger middle class in this country. America wins big time when that happens.

Conclusion

To get to the roots of who has been behind the grand scheme of the soon vanquished cabal, please read the works of our Gail Combs. Just know that anytime a politician has ever wanted to attract investment or business relations with the Chi-coms, they are openly stating whose team they are on and it is not America First MAGA.

I have a comment to make to each and every single one of those azzhats.

Game over, bitches. You gotta pay to play now.

Going forward, critical thinking and strategic actions will be rewarded. If you were duped or were beat down and just did not care any more with the past long running fake economy, this is your shot at redemption. All you have to do is communicate support for America First MAGA to folks. Let them know that you appreciate what is being done by President Trump and supporters. If you see something sinister relating to election integrity or with illegals, say something to authorities.

That’s it.

Then invest your work ethic and assets into MAGA. Celebrate each day that we are a SAFE nation that is no longer being taken advantage of and used by the rest of the world. When you no longer have to pay income taxes in the future and see the increased wealth in your retirement plans and investments it will become even more personal and appreciated. That day is coming…

Please remember Wolf’s rules for our community. In general that means to be respectful to each other and to pull no shenanigans that your mom might find offensive or otherwise cause jail time. That said, free speech is honored here.

Be blessed and go make something good happen!
