Crystal Ball Game

[JohnyMac]

We have not played the Crystal Ball Game in awhile. I would like you to peer deeply into your crystal ball and predict the future between midterm's and January 3, 2023. Here is the scenario.

If you are an over achiever, carry out the date from January 3 till Easter, 2023.

1) US Legislature goes GOP. Not a small amount but 55/45 GOP in the Senate, 245/190 in the House.
2) Governors go Red.
3) Market jumps with the Red Wave.

Have fun.

Biden essentially freezes any progress.  Uses executive orders, continues militarization of public "servants" & LEO's. Vetoes anything to reverse course put forth by the Congress. Very little gets done, except more spending with RINO support. Biden/Dems blame all woes on Republican obstructionism.  In others words, SNAFU.  Trump declares a Presidential bid, country continues to be polarized, as no true moderate candidate emerges to challenge him.  Prices in general continue increasing, recession hits hard in late 2023 to early 2024, as Biden continues to pump money into the economy. Antifa, BLM resurface near the election, promising violence if Trump elected.  2024 sees Trump elected, but a swing back to Dems in the House as they promise more and more "free stuff" if elected.  Senate remains Republican- again resulting in SNAFU. There is no Presidential honeymoon period. It's the Democrats turn to be obstructionist again.  Essentially, we remained FUBARED for at least 2025 and possibly 2026.

Great comments RB!

OK, here's my predictions:

Precious Metals will become unobtainable. No, wait.... That's already happening.

My wife will say the same thing everyday. "I'm tired of eating the same thing everyday."

I'll tell the wife the same thing everyday. "Just shut up and eat."

My crystal ball reports to me that over the next 6-months,

> GOP will take the Senate and House by a large percent.
> The DEM's will claim that the election was stolen.
> The anti MAGA/GOP rhetoric will continue and increase.
> December holiday sales will be down Vs. 2021.
> Things escalate post the start of the new Congress, January 3, 2023.
> Trump will be arrested and sent to GITMO. What do "they" have to loose.
> Investigations Via Congress on a whole host of Biden issues.
> Biden announces that he will not run in 2024.
> China will annex by force, Taiwan.   
> Peaceful protests (Riots) will start up again post January 3, 2023.
> Folks will have to chose between eating, heat, and meds; Consequently, people will die. In the USA and the EU.
> Central banks CB) in the EU will start to fail, one by one.
> NATO will move against Russia and its proxies.
> The Fed will follow suit of the EU CB's and declare the only way to save the dollar is to go digital.
> Inflation continues at a high rate.
> Unemployment will become an issue.
> Late January early February, DJIA will be south of 26,000-points. A loss of 10,000-points in 12 to 18-months
   from its high of 36,500-points, January 2022.
> With the economy in the shitter, the GOP will become the 'scapegoat'. 
> With the country in turmoil, the MSM starts to report on the suspected cognitive health of Biden.
> Biden will resign due to "poor health". Harris will become the first women president.
> The number one pick to run for president in 2024 for the DEM's will be put into the VP roll.

Bottom-line, 2023 will suck!

I think the elections will be rigged and there will NOT be a red wave, at least here in Alaska

[JohnyMac]

I think there WILL be some attempts to rig the election however, at least here in PA., there will be a lot of poll watchers this election cycle especially in the Philadelphia and Allegany counties.

Ammo prices will return to reasonable levels.  Bullets will not be priced as made from unobtanium.

Gas prices will return to reasonable levels as Ds realize they are likely to lose again in 2 years based on economic issues and their dreams of socialism needs more hiding before it become acceptable.

Illegal alien entry will be reduced as Ds realize their imported devotees are smarter they previously thought and do not like socialist governments.

Gavin Newsom will become the star of D party and their golden boy for Prez run against DeSantis. 

Trump will realize he likes the money he is making on the campaign trail and decide being kingmaker is better than being king.
