Post the Trump victory in November I have been watching the prepper community start to let down its guard to the point I thought it prudent to point out that, TRUMP AIN”T THE MESSIAH!
Not unlike the boy messiah AKA, President Barrack Obama who promised us better healthcare at a cheaper price, the seas would stop rising, our allies will respect us more, et cetera, Mr. Trump will not stop all illegal aliens coming into the country, raise the standard of living for the average US citizen, “clean the swamp”, et cetera.
So I am posting this in hopes that most of you have come off your “Clinton Defeat High” enough to see reality and get back to prepping for the inevitable. The inevitable being a local weather event, forest fire, or a normal job loss.
Then of course we have the other things to worry about like: Europe’s economy which will be a “bellwether” for us across the pond. The Chinese economy has to be reinvented by the Communist government as the world is already buying less and less of their product and it will only get worse with Trump’s nationalism and coming policies – Good/bad, smart/dumb, right/wrong, et cetera.
The Middle East is a whole other kettle of fish. Between the Bush and Obama administration the region is just one big hornets nest ready for anybody with a stick to rile it up. If you have ever accidentally threatened a hornet’s nest you well know.
Then at home here in these fine United States we have a lot of our own issues like: The Elites in DC not liking that half the country said, “get out” in November. I am talking about Sen. Sanders and Trump supporters mind you. There is a lot of unrest out there that will cause domestic terrorism when one side does not get what “they want.”
I implore you to not regress into “Normalcy Bias”. If anything, reprioritize your prepping “punch-list” and accelerate parts of your plan to weather what is coming over the next 6-12 months. It will not be pretty.
