How Trump Is Fixing the Revenue Side of the Federal Government and, In Turn, The Nation's Economy

As readers of this blog know, I have never voted for a Republican for President since I began voting in the 1970s. Thus, I am not a Trump voter. However, I have avoided coming down with Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and have kept an open mind about him. I find him obnoxious, graceless, and certainly not smooth.

However, he has been effective in other facets of his life and he has been effective as President so who cares if he is not graceful and eloquent? Consider the following stats as a historical review:

  • When Trump left office in 2021, the average price of a gallon of gas was $2.42, when Biden left office the average cost was $3.08.
  • When Trump left office in 2021, the average 30 year mortgage rate was 2.65, when Biden left office the average cost was 7.04%.
  • When Trump left office in 2021, the average cost of a dozen eggs was $1.47, when Biden left office the average cost of a dozen eggs was $4.95.
I could go on but you get the idea: I do not care what a politician's personality is as long as he or she delivers results for Americans, much like Trump did in his first term and unlike what Biden did in his only term.

Since coming into office three months ago, Trump has made excellent progress on several major issues facing the country including illegal immigration, illegal drugs flooding into the country, wasteful government spending, and the need to develop the country’s manufacturing base. Over the next series of posts, we are going to focus on the last two aspects of his progress, eliminating wasteful government spending and developing the country’s manufacturing base.

We have already done a series of posts on Trump’s attacking of wasteful government spending which began with the following post:

https://loathemygovernment.blogspot.com/2025/02/february-2025-by-numbers-part-2.html

We will get back to wasteful spending since Trump and Elon Musk have continued to identify stupid and wasteful government spending since the above posts on wasteful spending were discussed.

Today, however, we will review the various sources and companies that have promised to invest in America as a result of Trump’s policies. Revenue and expenses/costs are part of any business and Trump is a businessman. Thus, today let’s focus on “revenue:” generating jobs, wealth, and eventually taxes. And in the following posts we will go through the incredible amount of wasteful spending that he and his team has identified, something any business owner should always be doing, optimizing and hopefully minimizing his company’s costs.

But today, Trump’s efforts to bring investments and jobs to the country:

1) Apple recently announced that it will bring up a quarter million square foot factory in Texas by 2026. This factory will be focused on building artificial intelligence servers and this effort will create about 20,000 research and development jobs across the country.

It also announced that it plans to spend a half trillion dollars in the U.S. in the next four years. These expenses and investments will be spread out across its many product lines including purchases from U.S. suppliers and filming TV shows for its streaming service.

According to Apple CEO, Tim Cook: “As a proud American company, we're thrilled to continue to make significant investments in the US. Today, we’re announcing a $500 billion commitment to support American innovation, advanced manufacturing, and high tech job creation.”

2)Kimberly-Clark recently announced that it plans to domestically invest $2 billion over the next five years. This will be the company’s biggest U.S. investment in over 30 years.

This investment will greatly expand its manufacturing base to keep up with domestic demand for its many consumer products. The company expects this investment to create over 900 high end industrial automation and advanced manufacturing jobs.

According to Group Vice President for North America, Russ Torres: "This landmark investment represents a strategic bet on the American consumer and our ability to drive innovation-led sustainable growth for Kimberly-Clark. It reflects the confidence we have in our long-term growth plans and complements a broad range of commercial and R&D investments we have been making throughout the business as part of our Powering Care transformation journey."

A new factory in Warren, Ohio will be spread out over 1 million square feet. A new regional distribution center in South Carolina will streamline and improve the company’s logistics and delivery capabilities.

3)The United Arab Emirates recently committed to spending/investing a whopping $1.4 trillion in the U.S. over the next ten years. These investment will be done in various fields including AI, semiconductors, energy, and manufacturing.

For example, Emirates Global Aluminium will build the first new aluminum smelter in the country in 35 years. Such an investment is expected to double U.S domestic aluminum production.

4)Saudi Arabia’s crown prince recently announced that he wants his country to invest $600 billion in the U.S. over the next four years. According to a Saudi spokesperson: “The crown prince affirmed the kingdom’s intention to broaden its investments and trade with the United States over the next four years, in the amount of $600 billion, and potentially beyond that.”

5)Japanese Prime Minister, Shigeru Ishiba recently promised to boost Japan's investment in the U.S. by $1 trillion after a recent meeting with Trump. Part of this commitment involves boosting Japan’s importation of U.S. liquefied natural gas.

The Prime Minister, during the meeting, also pointed out how two Japanese car companies, Toyota and Isuzu, have plans to build factories in the U.S.

[Note: these stories and actions were reported by reputable news sources including Reuters, Associated Press, Japanese Times, and other sources.]

Big companies and wealthy nations are committing to making big investments in the U.S. as a result of Trump’s efforts and business negotiating skills. These investments will create jobs and wealth, the “revenue” side of the equation we discussed above.

But investments in America and our economy are not related to these huge investments discussed above:
  • IBM - $150 billion to be spent over the next five years for manufacturing operations.
  • Thermo Fisher Scientific - $2 billion over the next four years to expand its manufacturing and innovation projects.
  • Corning - $1.5 billion to expand its manufacturing location, adding 400 new jobs.
  • Merck - $1 billion investment to build a new manufacturing plant in Delaware to create more than 500 new jobs.
  • Amgen - $900 million investment in its Ohio manufacturing operation.
  • The Bel Group - $350 million investment to expand its U.S. manufacturing across several states.
  • Nvidia - $599 billion investment over four years invested in its AI infrastructure.
  • Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing company - $100 billion investment in its U.S.-based chips manufacturing.
  • Johnson & Johnson - $55 billion investment over four years in its manufacturing, research, and development operations.
  • Roche - $50 billion investment in its U.S. manufacturing and research operations, creating more than 1,000 jobs.
I will end this discussion here but we could list out dozens of other domestic and foreign companies and nations that have committed to invest trillions of dollars in the U.S. economy over the next decade or so.

And this is why I do not care that Trump is an obnoxious, crude person. The only thing that matters is positive results, regardless of what you think of the person creating these positive results. The investment plans discussed above, the “revenue” component of the business of government, are amazing. Over the next several posts we will continue to discuss the unbelievable number of wasteful projects and efforts that are wasting taxpayer wealth every day, the “expense” side of the government.

October, 2020, Part 5, Political Class Insanity: A Small Town Mayor Goes TDS, A U.S.Senator Goes Trivial, and the Washington Post Goes After Kids

It is the beginning of another month which means it is time again to review the latest political class insanity from the American political class. Each month it takes us multiple posts to cover the wasteful spending, incompetent government organizations and employees, government programs that usually make a problem worse than resolving it, inane and idiotic politician comments, etc.

To review past posts on this insanity and idiocy, just click on the first few posts in each month listed to the right of this page. After reviewing just a handful of these insanity posts we think you will agree that we are currently being served by the worst set of American politicians ever to hold office in our entire history.

1) Politicians in a perfect world would be dignified leaders, respective of all of their voters. However, anyone who has followed this blog knows that American politicians are overwhelmingly NOT leaders, dignified and respective. They are usually greedy, shallow, and ineffective people that never get anything accomplished.

Such is the case of the mayor of a small town in the rural areas of New Jersey and her recent childish outburst:
  • Flemington, New Jersey is an old, quaint town in the rolling hills in western New Jersey, about five miles from where I used to live.
  • The current mayor is Betsy Driver who I am assuming is a Democrat, given she is not a big fan of Trump.
  • She is so not a fan that she recently, on her Facebook page likened Trump supporters to “religious zealots” who want to “enact the Christian version of Sharia law.”
  • First of all, I did not know there is a Christian version of Sharia and I doubt it exists because it looks like the good mayor is in the throes of a TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome, attack.
  • Not only does she slander every Trump supporter and make up a fake Christian tenet, she goes over the edge with her follow up comments: “If you voted for the orange monster with COVID, go f— yourself. If you plan on voting for him again, unfriend me and go f— yourself again.”
  • To say this is a dignified leader would be comical, she is on the verge of being certifiable crazy.
  • County Republicans properly pointed out how intolerable and insulting her words were, calling them shameful and insulting and calling for the good, wacko mayor to resign:“Your statement is antithetical to the principles of representative democracy. It is further proof that you do not represent the people of Flemington, the character of Hunterdon County, and the values of at least part of the Democrat party.”
But the whole situation gets even funnier and more ridiculous in that the mayor claims that her words were taken out of context! Really not sure how “go F___ yourself” can be taken out of any context imaginable, seems pretty straightforward. 

Which gets us to another sad attribute of American opticians: when they say ridiculous stuff like “go F__ yourself” was taken out of context do they think we are too stupid to realize how inane her comment is or does she really believe her statement? In either case, she is obviously unfit to fairly serve ALL of her constituents in the town of Flemington, Republicans and Democrats.

2) We have often wondered out loud which member of Congress has said the most stupid things over the years. Nancy Pelosi was the long time leading candidate for that title but over the past few years people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sheila Jackson Lee have come on strong with absolutely ignorant and/or silly statements.

But there is a newcomer to this competition. Hawaiian Senator Mazie Hirono has come up with some pretty good idiotic comments lately, the latest one coming from the Senate hearings for Supreme Court nominee Amy Cooney Barrett:

  • The good Senator actually asked Judge Barrett if she had ever sexually assaulted another person.
  • Now, keep in mind there was no evidence she did, no one had come forward to claim that actually happened, it was just a ridiculous, unfounded and stiupid thing to ask a well respected judge and woman.
  • The exchange between the Senator and Judge went as follows:
Hirono: I ask each nominee these two questions and I will ask them of you. Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature?

Barrett: No, Senator Hirono.

Hirono: Have you ever faced discipline or entered into a settlement related to this kind of conduct?

Barrett: No, Senator.

Roe Vs. Wade, Gun Control, Judicial Overreach, Civil Rights, etc., there are dozens of important issues that the Senator could have asked of the judge. But no, she decided to ask these two ridiculous questions that have no basis in reality. What a waste of time and breath.

Would she have asked these same questions if Joe Biden was nominated for the court, given his extensive sexual harassment and sexual predator beahviors that are well documented? I doubt it because the hypocrisy is strong with every Washington politician.

3) It has always been our position that democracy needs a strong, independent, smart, and unbiased press. Such a strong press would make sure that misbehaving politicians stay in place since those in the free press would be honest, stay in integrity, and chase down stories regardless of whose political party the subject of that story was associated with.

But, sadly, that is not the situation today in this country. Different media and journalism entities have taken sides in the political discourse in this country, standing up for one part of the political spectrum no matter how corrupt while trying to find even the tiniest hint of wrongdoing on other parts of the spectrum.

The Washington Post is no different. Its reporting and blatant hatred for anything Trump is well documented and known, as illustrated in the following bit of tripe that the Post recently published:
  • Amy Cooney Barrett is a very well respected judge who has been nominated to sit on the Supreme Court.
  • A couple of weeks ago, she was part of a White House press gathering where Trump introduced her as his nominee for the Court.
  • Judge Barrett and her family attended the gathering.
  • Many people at the gathering unfortunately came down with the coronavirus including the President.
  • Fortunately, it appears most have recovered from the virus or are on the way to recovery.
  • Judge Barrett has a lot of kids, both her own and adopted, who go to school.
  • Unfortunately, two students and a teacher at one of her kids’ schools came down with the virus.
  • Mind you there is absolutely no evidence that the Barrett kids had anything to do with the infection of these three people, none whatsoever.
  • The Barrett kids tested negative for the virus, they stayed at home for a while after the gathering and only went back to school after the school said it was okay to return, they have had no connection to those that were infected, and have no virus symptoms. 
  • But that did not stop Post writer, Amanda Prestigiacomo, from publishing a non-story, strongly implying that the Barrett kids, by attending the press gathering, spread the virus to school folks.
  • Specifically: “Two students and a teacher at school attended by Barrett children tested positive for coronavirus,” was the headline to her story.
  • After publishing this sensationalism headline and opening implications that somehow the Barrett kids are responsible, she then said, “Parents are freaked out though no proven link.”
  • The story went on to say that “no evidence linking the school infections to the White House event.”
This was a non-story and yet the Washington Post still ran with it, implying from the title and the first paragraph that Judge Barrett’s kids somehow got these three people infected. It is only after the sensationalism headlines and first paragraph that they admit there is absolutely no evidence that the Trump meeting and Barrett’s kids had anything to do with the infections. A non-story that should have never been written, there is nothing there. So many other bigger issues and national problems to discuss and this newspaper prints this tripe, insinuating the kids did something bad. Disgusting.

Enough insanity for today: a New Jersey mayor goes off the TDS deep end, a U.S. Senator asks ridiculous questions, and the news media loses even more integrity.

December, 2019, The Horrors And Destruction That Donald Trump Has Imposed On America...Just Kidding! A Three Year Review Of The Trump Administration

Before we start today’s discussion, let’s review my voting history: 
  • I have never voted for a Republican for President in my life.
  • Thus, I did not vote for Trump. 
  • I have rarely voted for a Republican for national office in my life. 
About 3 years ago, many liberals, Democrats, and millennials were besides themselves with grief and fear because their pre-ordained queen, Hillary Clinton, was not elected President. Instead, Donald Trump was elected, an individual that these same people despised, hated, and feared, an individual they felt would endanger and possibly destroy the country and our democracy. For the past year and a half they fretted, worried and lashed out at anything or anyone that even remotely smelled of Donald Trump.

Given that Trump has been in office for almost two years, I thought, that as someone who did not vote for him, it would be a good idea to review the horror, trauma, and terrible things that Trump has subjected the country to in just eighteen month’s time. This is obviously a very sarcastic comment when you take an unbiased look at what has happened during the Trump Presidency.

The many previous posts we did on this topic identified over 300 good things that have happened to America and Americans since Trump became President and they can found by entering the phrase “the horrors and destruction” in the search box above. 

Given we are three years onto Trump’s Presidency, I thought it would be a good idea to list out some of his many accomplishments that we have already listed in the previous numerous posts on the topic. As the previous paragraph points out, we have already named over 300 ways that American is better off today than it was three years ago when he took office. So in no particular order, consider the following 13 improvements that have occurred in America under the Trump administration:
  1. According to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, 76% of those polled rated the economy as very or somewhat good, higher than the rating a year ago which was 67% and the highest level since February, 2001.
  2. The House of Representatives passed Trump’s new trade treaty with Mexico and Canada with overwhelming Democratic support, a treaty that should benefit the U.S. economy and provide protections to workers outside of the U.S.
  3. According to a study by Surveys of Consumers Attitudes, consumer sentiment has been at 95 or higher in 30 of the previous 35 months, a 20 year high.
  4. Trump has recently announced that he will be withdrawing about 4,000 U.S. troops from Afghanistan, hopefully a first step in getting the country completely out of this disaster.
  5. Since Trump took office the number of individuals receiving food stamp aid has dropped by 6.2 million people and 2.7 million households, a sign of a robust economy.
  6. Trump has introduced additional food stamp regulations that will reduce the number of food stamp recipients by another 700,000 able bodied adults.
  7. There are currently 158 million American citizens in the workforce, a record.
  8. Female labor workforce participation is at an all time high.
  9. The African-American unemployment rate is at an all time low.
  10. Over 6.3 million jobs have been created by the Trump economy, with over half of them going to women.
  11. November results on illegal immigration showed for the sixth consecutive month the number of apprehensions of illegal immigrants at the border was down from the previous month, hitting their lowest level since July, 2018, indicating that Trump has tightened up security on the southern border.
  12. Trump recently donated his quarterly salary to fighting opioid addiction in the country, a donation that follows previous donations of his salary to the Department of Education, infrastructure improvement, Veterans Affairs, the Small Business Administration, alcohol abuse prevention, and aid to U.S. farmers.
  13. Under Trump, improper payments by the Medicare program have declined $7 billion from fiscal 2017 through 2019.
Okay, let’s stop the list here, you get the idea. The previous posts under this topic found over 300 successes and good things since Trump took office. Higher wages, better job opportunities, higher economic growth, better approaches to health and drug addiction, stronger actions and respect in foreign affairs, reductions in government bureaucracy, hardly the disaster that liberals, Democrats, and Hillary Clinton predicted.

For those of you that have hated on Trump since day one, and given your obvious gross error in judgment relative to Trump given the well 300 accomplishments we have previously listed, let me ask that you do us all a favor by implementing the following changes in your behavior and attitude:
  • Chill out, tamp down your TDS affliction. No matter how much you hate Trump on a sexist, personal basis, get over it. He is the legally and duly elected President, he will be around for a while so refocus your hatred on more constructive issues and matters. You will live a lot longer if you take your hatred out of your heart and soul and devote it to something positive.
  • I would really appreciate it if some of you would apologize to the Trump voters you have disrespected in some of the grossest terms possible over the past year. You have called millions of voters racists, ignorant, stupid, Nazis, KKK members, and other horrible names simply because you disagreed with their voting choice. No American should be called such disgusting names simply because they exercised their Constitutional rights to the best of their abilities. Plus, slandering over 60 million Americans is no way to unite the country and get it focused on the real issues facing us all.
  • More personally, I would like, no I am demanding, an apology from some of you for your slanderous and disgusting name calling because in doing so, you insulted and disrespected my sister, my family members, my friends, and my co-workers who simply voted their conscience. I will defend their right to vote anyway they wanted and will not put up with your childish and vicious venom and bile directed at them, very important people in my life.
  • And finally, I challenge you to read the following blog post, a post that shows quite clearly that it was hateful people like some of you and your silence during the Obama years that actually caused Trump to be elected. Thus, the people you hate for voting for Trump are actually looking back at you in the mirror:
https://loathemygovernment.blogspot.com/2016/03/how-american-liberals-and-washington.html

If you were silent in the dozens of instances listed in this post then you were responsible for the very thing you hate: a Trump Presidency. Or put another way, a so far successful and productive Trump Presidency. Over 200 accomplishments in two years is not too shabby despite many of you wanting both Trump and the country to fail.

The Horrors and Destruction That Donald Trump Has Imposed On America...Just Kidding, An Update To The Hundreds Of Accomplishments We Already Identified

Before we start today’s discussion, let’s review my voting history: 

  • I have never voted for a Republican for President in my life.
  • Thus, I did not vote for Trump. 
  • I have rarely voted for a Republican for national office in my life. 
Almost three years ago, many liberals, Democrats, and millennials were besides themselves with grief and fear because their pre-ordained queen, Hillary Clinton, was not elected President.

Given that Trump has been in office for well over two years, I thought, that as someone who did not vote for him, it would be a good idea to review the horror, trauma, and terrible things that Trump has subjected the country to in just eighteen month’s time. This is obviously a very sarcastic comment when you take an unbiased look at what has happened during the Trump Presidency.

The many previous posts we did on this topic identified hundreds of good things that have happened to America and Americans since Trump became President. These posts can be found by entering the phrase “the horrors and destruction” in the search box above. 

We continually list out some of Trump’s many accomplishments and we have done that in the previous 20 posts on the topic. As the previous paragraph points out, we have already named hundreds of ways that American is better off today than it was almost three years ago when he took office. 

Today’s update to his accomplishments come from the Freedom Headlines website. We have identified many of these accomplishments already but it is a nice review of Trump’s accomplishments:

1. Because of Trump’s pro-growth policies, real gross domestic product (GDP) growth exceeded 3 percent over the last four quarters

2. More than 5 million jobs have been created since Trump’s election and the unemployment rate remains well below 4% and is currently at a 50 year low.

3. The unemployment rate for African Americans in May fell to 5.9% which is the lowest rate on record.

4. Since Trump’s election, 4.6 million Americans have been removed from food stamp dependency.

5. More than 6 million workers received tax cut bonuses and benefits.

6. Trump signed legislation that reauthorized the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, making more than $1 billion available for career education programs.

7. The female unemployment rate is at its lowest level in 65 years.

8. Trump signed legislation to roll back burdensome Dodd-Frank regulations that harmed community banks.

9. Trump negotiated a new, better trade agreement between the United States, Canada, and Mexico to replace the North American Free Trade Agreement.

10. Trump held an historic summit with North Korea Chairman Kim Jong-Un, hopefully bringing beginnings of peace and denuclearization to the Korean Peninsula.

11. Trump secured a record $73.1 billion in funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to provide quality medical care for our veterans.

12. Every quarter since taking office, Trump has donated his salary to worthwhile charities and other benevolent organizations, fulfilling a campaign promise he made.

13. Trump implemented a five-year ban on lobbying for White House employees and a lifetime ban on lobbying for foreign countries.

14. In a historic show of transparency and accountability, the Trump Administration completed the Department of Defense’s first ever audit.

15. In 2018, programs at the VA and the Department of Housing and Urban Development helped more than 51,000 veterans find permanent housing and access supportive services.

16. Trump signed the Veterans Affairs Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act, making it easier to fire failing employees and protect whistleblowers.

17. Trump convinced the NATO nations to strengthen their counterterrorism activities, and NATO formally joined the coalition to defeat ISIS.

18. Trump has imposed tough sanctions on the corrupt regimes in Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua.

19. ISIS’ territorial caliphate has been crushed and President Trump has announced that he is starting to bring America’s troops in Syria home.

20. President Trump ended the devastating defense cuts of the past Administration and has secured historic investments to rebuild our military.

To these accomplishments, let’s add some others that the article missed:

- The U.S.unemployment rate recently dropped to 3.5%, reaching a 50 year low, and getting to a level once thought to be impossibly low by standard economic theory.

- According to Josh Wright, chief economist at iCIMS: “The unemployment rate usually rises ahead of a recession, so a fresh decline pushes out the timeline for any potential recession into late 2020 at the earliest.” 

- On average the Trump administration has eliminated 14 unnecessary government regulations for every new government regulation that his administration put in place, blowing away his campaign promise to drop 2 regulations for every new government regulation.

- The median household income is up $4,000 since Trump became President.

- A new NPR/PBS/Marist poll shows that Trump is trusted more than the media and Congress with 31% saying they trust Congress, 29% saying they trust the media, and 40% saying they trust Trump.

- Trump signed an executive order that aims to improve the fiscal health of Medicare and offer more affordable Medicare plan options.

- Trump dedicated $25 million to support the U.N. effort to promote religious freedom around the world and fight genocide against religious groups.

Okay, let’s stop the list here, you get the idea. Another 27 items of success from the Trump Presidency. The previous posts under this topic found hundreds of other successes and good things since Trump took office. Higher wages, better job opportunities, higher economic growth, better approaches to health and drug addiction, stronger actions and respect in foreign affairs, reductions in government bureaucracy, hardly the disaster that liberals, Democrats, and Hillary Clinton predicted.

For those of you that have hated on Trump since day one, and given your obvious gross error in judgment relative to Trump given the hundreds of accomplishments we have previously listed, let me ask that you to do us all a favor by implementing the following changes in your behavior and attitude:

If you were silent in the dozens of instances listed in this post then you were responsible for the very thing you hate: a Trump Presidency. Or put another way, a so far successful and productive Trump Presidency. Hundreds of accomplishments in just a few years is not too shabby despite many of you wanting both Trump and the country to fail.
