Quick Takes: Things of Note You May Have Missed – by Jim Bratten

What ‘Exoneration’?

As former congressman Trey Gowdy explained, the Mueller Report didn’t “exonerate” President Trump from obstruction claims for good reason. “In America, you don’t have to be ‘exonerated’ if there is no crime alleged. You are innocent until proven guilty; but Democrats are trying to flip that… flip the burden to prove innocence onto the accused…” (just as they did to Justice Bret Kavanaugh). When you have a political party that doesn’t believe in the Constitution as written and ignores the rule of law, you have a party of outlaws.

Despite what Robert Mueller, the DOJ, and the FBI would have us believe, “there is nothing called exoneration in U.S. law if you have not been convicted of a crime.” No one can be exonerated for something they never committed.

Electoral Ignorance

Looking only at history and economics, according to Donald Luskin, CEO of Trend Macrolytics, economic models show Trump wins a landslide election in 2020 in the Electoral College. Luskin expects a blow-out. No wonder the Democrats want the elimination of the Electoral College in favor of a national popular vote for the election of president. The Constitution is definitely not a friend when it comes to power and control of the population by socialist coastal elites.

However, Tennessee Democrat Rep. Steve Cohen says we must abolish the Electoral College because of… Slavery! The undistinguished congressman believes that, if you support the Electoral College, you are a bigot. Unfortunately, the rube has likely never read The Federalist Papers. Lack of knowledge of history can make one a fool.

Shining (Red) Star

The Washington Examiner has been looking into who South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg really is. He’s a rising star in the list of undeclared Democrat presidential hopefuls for 2020, but no one knows “what he’s made of.”

The Examiner found that, “Pete Buttigieg’s father was a Marxist professor who lauded the Communist Manifesto,” Karl Marx’s handbook for communist socialism. “…Buttigieg was among a group of leftist professors who focused on injecting Marxism into the wider culture.” Buttigieg senior taught literature at Notre Dame and was a member of the Communist Party USA.

Mayor Pete Buttigieg is a solid-left radical, following in his father’s footsteps. He supports the Green New Deal, a wealth tax, a single-payer health provider system, packing the U.S. Supreme Court, abandoning the Electoral College, total amnesty for illegal aliens, and the entire LGBT agenda. The Democrats’ new rising star is a “red star” – and definitely no moderate.

Media Black-Out

President Trump’s multitude of accomplishments during his first two years in office still goes unreported, little to no mention of it in the Propaganda Press.

The Trump economy continues to boom. The U.S. economy added 284,000 manufacturing jobs in 2018; the most in 21 years. In November, 2018 there were 7.335 million jobs in the U.S. – unfilled.

Real GDP growth through the first three quarters of 2018 hit 3.2% and $30 billion was saved through Trump’s deregulation achievements. The U.S. again became the world’s largest producer of crude oil, surpassing Saudi Arabia and Russia; the first time since the 1950s.

Hiring resumed in March, a 0.1% gain over month previous; 3.0% year-over-year. Average pay was up 3.2% over March, 2018 and 196,000 new jobs were added.
