Marion Marechal-Le Pen – the Better Looking Donald Trump of France
When the New York Times first wrote that Marion Maréchal-Le Pen the French Weapon of mass distraction: France’s youngest member of Parliament is 25 and she takes no prisoners, I seriously doubt they ever realized that she could actually become the president of a district in France. However, this stunningly beautiful and smart 26 year-old politician is more than just a fresh-faced rising star of the far-right National Front. She is able to deliver hard messages on migrants and Muslims that outdo her tough-talking aunt, party leader Marine Le Pen, yet using a soft touch and a smile.
When the national French TV asked me to debate the
top three students selected by the elite French schools, I assumed it
would be a confrontation that would be interesting. Instead, the
students asked me what to do to help their country since they felt
powerless to reverse the trend. This was really showing me that a
watershed moment was emerging in France. I appeared on different TV channels and the questions were interesting. They even explained the model on National TV.

I was asked to also debated the French Finance
Minister Michel Sapin on National TV. He said he could not make it. Then
at the last minute he showed up at the TV station assuming I would not
be there. They played the clip they made interviewing me and following
me around in Paris. CANAL TV confronted Michel Sapin on national TV,
which would never happen here in the States. Sapin appeared on air and
the host asked him directly about the business cycle and our forecasts.
While Sapin claimed nobody can forecast, he then proceeded to forecast
that the French economy would boom next year, posting a 1.5% growth
rate. The point is, that obviously things were changing in France even
before the Paris Attack.
Now tomorrow, the vote in France will be for the
leadership councils in 13 French regions. Should both Le Pens win their
regions, the anti-immigration National Front will devastate France’s
current political landscape. Her aunt will be well positioned to take
France’s 2017 presidential campaign.The polls released Wednesday showed
both Le Pens were behind and Prime Minister Manuel Valls wages the
braindead Socialist campaign against the National Front claiming that
the Le Pens positions of “the extreme right advocates division … that could lead to civil war.”
Proof that the Socialists have destroyed the
economy which will indeed lead to a revolution or civil war, is the fact
that its share market has been unable to ever match no less exceed the
2000 high.
Politics – It’s Not What You Think
COMMENT: Dear Mr Armstrong,
I just was looking at your blog entry about the Republican
higher-ups choosing their candidate against the voters.I always tell
people this story when something like that comes up. I was a Ron Paul
supporter back the last time he was running. I lived in Massachusetts, a
little north of Boston. I didn’t realize it, but the heart of the
moribund Republican Party was right in my district.
You may recall the establishment Republicans were stonewalling Ron
Paul to keep him from getting into the convention.So one day I got an
email from his campaign to to go to the ‘Republican Caucus’ for my
district and vote for a slate of pro-Ron Paul candidates to be sent on
to the national convention. I have a Bachelor’s in Political Science,
and I had never even heard of a Republican caucus before.So I went out
of curiosity, if nothing else.
As it turns out, the Ron Paul contingent came out in force. The
organizers clearly were not accustomed to having a big turn out for this
event. They kept emphasizing all through the event that the people
selected would be obligated to vote for Romney at the convention, based
on his having won the primary. The Ron Paul plan was these people to
follow the rules in the first round of voting, but apparently by some
obscure rule of the convention, if there was no clear winner in the
first round of voting, then these delegates would be free to vote for
whichever candidate they thought appropriate. So I guess the Ron Paul
people thought to do a kind of end-run around the establishment by this
route.
Anyway, there was a congressional candidate Richard Tisei there as
far as I could tell was very unpopular, don’t even know how he got
nominated, another guy Bruce Tarr one of the high-ups in the state
Republican hierarchy, Kerry Healey (Lt Gov with Romney), Charlie Baker
(the current governor of Mass.), etc etc I was surprised to see so many
Republican luminaries at this little meeting in a school auditorium.So
all these insiders were put up for election as delegates to the
convention. They were voted down over and over again, and the Ron Paul
candidates were getting every spot.This woman Kerry Healey was voted
down twice and left before the event was over. At one point they called
her on the phone to see if she wanted to be nominated as an alternate,
and she said she didn’t even want to be voted on again. I am sure she
knew she would lose.Subsequently, it turned out that all of the
non-insiders were challenged and put through every kind of ringer to get
them out, and get the ‘right’ people in.I had steam coming out of my
ears later seeing a photo of Kerry Healey at the convention anyway, even
though she had been voted down multiple times.I said to everyone, ‘If
this is how the Republican Party will treat its own people, the most
inside of insiders, registered Republicans, showing up at this obscure
meeting, what will they do to the general population?’I am no fan of the
Democrats, which is how I happened to be at this caucus, but the
Republican establishment is a bunch of scum bags.JM
The delegate system is also a pretense to an election. It does NOT have to reflect what the people vote on any more than the Electoral Collage.The 2000 election was the most recent when Bush won the election with the Electoral College vote, 271 to 266, but not the popular votes since Gore won 540,000 more votes than Bush. Back in 1824, John Quincy Adams was elected president despite not winning either the popular vote or the electoral vote. Andrew Jackson was the winner in both categories. Jackson received 38,000 more popular votes than Adams, and beat him in the electoral vote 99 to 84. Despite his victories, Jackson didn’t reach the majority 131 votes needed in the Electoral College to be declared president. In fact, neither candidate did. The decision went to the House of Representatives, which voted Adams into the White House. That was a “brokered” deal that made Jackson mad and he destroyed the Bank of the United States (central bank) not for any economic reason, but because they funded his opponents. It was pay-back time.
Then in 1876, Rutherford B. Hayes won the election (by a margin of one electoral vote), but he lost the popular vote by more than 250,000 ballots to Samuel J. Tilden. During the 1888 election, Benjamin Harrison received 233 electoral votes to Grover Cleveland’s 168, winning the presidency. But Harrison lost the popular vote by more than 90,000 votes.So rigging elections is nothing historically new.
To all the emails that have asked me to run for President and even being asked that question on a radio show, my response is always the same. Even assuming I could get the nomination of a Party, they would assassinate me before my hand touched the Bible. You have to KISS so much ass to rise to the top slot of any party, I seriously doubt there would ever be a real selection by the people.
This 2016 election is going to be interesting. On the one hand, the ONLY possible way we can save our country is to do what they did in Scotland – vote absolutely EVERY career politicians out of office be they Republican or Democrat. The party system MUST be destroyed or there will be no saving the United States until the politics changes. Neither Democrats nor Republicans will deal with the issue. This is their budget forecast – not ours. This means they all KNOW this becomes serious in 2017. They will not deal with the problem. Instead, they will raise taxes exponentially destroying everything. This is why G20 is doing everything to track everything. It will not work. The political system is a joke.
So let’s see what happens. It’s not over until the political ELITE begin to scream for they are losing control of their power machine to fool Americans into believing they have a right to vote. In Europe, the Trioka does not stand for election ever.
Will Obama Pay Tax on $1.2 Million in Gifts from Saudi Arabia?
If you receive valuable jewelry as a gift,
you cannot return to the USA without reporting it and paying the tax.
The Saudi king gave Michelle Obama and her daughters $1.2 million in jewels. So
why are the Obamas allowed to keep them tax-free? Oh yes, taxes are for
the “little people” (munchkins) who live outside of government in
Washington.They were turnover to the National Archives and you can bet
they cried over that. Obama complains his wife is not being paid. So much for doing a job to jelp the country.
100,000 Troops to Fight ISIS
The Iraqi Agency Press reported that some 100,000 foreign soldiers, including 90,000 from Arab countries and the Gulf States, are expected to be sent to combat ISIS in 2016. This is the beginning of a serious war that is unfolding for it has no real borders.
