Trump Victory Speech
()
Quote

Thank you. Thank you very much, everybody. Sorry to keep you waiting. Complicated business. Complicated. Thank you very much.
I've just received a call from Secretary Clinton. She congratulated us. It's about us. On our victory, and I congratulated her and her family on a very, very hard-fought campaign.
I mean, she fought very hard. Hillary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time, and we owe her a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country.
I mean that very sincerely. Now it is time for America to bind the wounds of division, have to get together. To all Republicans and Democrats and independents across this nation, I say it is time for us to come together as one united people.
It is time. I pledge to every citizen of our land that I will be President for all of Americans, and this is so important to me. For those who have chosen not to support me in the past, of which there were a few people, I'm reaching out to you for your guidance and your help so that we can work together and unify our great country.
As I've said from the beginning, ours was not a campaign but rather an incredible and great movement, made up of millions of hard-working men and women who love their country and want a better, brighter future for themselves and for their family.
It is a movement comprised of Americans from all races, religions, backgrounds, and beliefs, who want and expect our government to serve the people -- and serve the people it will.
Working together, we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding our nation and renewing the American dream. I've spent my entire life in business, looking at the untapped potential in projects and in people all over the world.
That is now what I want to do for our country. Tremendous potential. I've gotten to know our country so well. Tremendous potential. It is going to be a beautiful thing. Every single American will have the opportunity to realize his or her fullest potential.
The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer.
We are going to fix our inner cities and rebuild our highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, schools, hospitals. We're going to rebuild our infrastructure, which will become, by the way, second to none. And we will put millions of our people to work as we rebuild it.
We will also finally take care of our great veterans who have been so loyal, and I've gotten to know so many over this 18-month journey.The time I've spent with them during this campaign has been among my greatest honors. Our veterans are incredible people.
We will embark upon a project of national growth and renewal. I will harness the creative talents of our people, and we will call upon the best and brightest to leverage their tremendous talent for the benefit of all. It is going to happen.
We have a great economic plan. We will double our growth and have the strongest economy anywhere in the world. At the same time, we will get along with all other nations willing to get along with us. We will be. We will have great relationships. We expect to have great, great relationships.
No dream is too big, no challenge is too great. Nothing we want for our future is beyond our reach.

Today Mr. Donald Trump signed Executive Order 13769, which titled Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States, often referred to as the Muslim ban or the travel ban

This news brought the Democrats into great anger. Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi have already issued their angry statements. His words for criticism of Trump could not be restrained by ordinary Democrats: Senators, Representatives, Governors, state senators and representatives. The Democrats have already stated that they will prepare a lawsuit everywhere to abolish this order

Also moderate Republicans reacted badly to this news. John Kasich, Rob Portman, Charlie Baker, John McCain all criticized Donald Trump very sharply. They said they would do their best to prevent this order from happening

All parties are preparing for the midterm elections. The most difficult time is for the Moderate Party, because almost all the senators from this party will be reelected this year. Experts predict a lot of competitive races this year

Trump's order to end birthright citizenship in USA

Today, March 14th, 2018, President Donald Trump signed a executive order that not all children born in the United States can receive citizenship. This applies primarily to refugee children

This incident caused a lot of criticism from all three major US parties (except the GOP).

Part of the performance of the Minority Leader of the Senate Chuck Schumer (D-NY):

We suffered for a very long time. Donald Trump. For many Americans, this name is terrifying. They recall their problems, which are created by the policy of Mr. Trump. Donald Trump does not deserve to such a great position

More recently, I was a member of the GOP, then I realized I was moving in the wrong direction. I switched to NRP. I just made sure once again that I did everything correctly. This is humiliating for many people. We are against. We will stand to the last

Part performance by Representative Collin Peterson (D-MN):

I became the founder of the party of moderate democrats. I thought that our party would be able to find a compromise with all the parties. But with people like Trump and his allies, this is impossible. This is very, very disturbing, this is terrifying. For the first time in the history of my political activities, I meet such a shameless, incompetent politician and President

Jim Mattis leaves office

Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis announced that he was leaving his post. He will do it by the end of May. The reason for this, Mattis called different opinions with Trump on various issues. This was confirmed by rumors that have been around for a long time

Jim Mattis was one of the most popular, if not the most popular, member of Trump's cabinet. While it is not known how this will affect the activities of the Pentagon, but you can confidently say that Trump's popularity will fall

Also, the general said that he would remain non-partisan, but was considering the possibility of joining NRP or MOD

Meeting of the leaders of the New Republican and Moderate parties
10th May 2020

()

Senate New Republican leader in the Senate Rob Portman, Senate New Republican Whip John Hoeven and New Republican Senatorial Committee (nNRSC) chairwoman Susan Collins today met with the leaders of the Moderate Party: Senate Moderate leader Bob Casey, Moderate Senatorial Campaign Comitee (MSCC) chairman Joe Manchin and chairman of Moderate Governors Association John Bel Edwards

()

As you know, they discussed the issue of combining efforts in competitive races to overcome the possibility of electing new ultraleft or ultraright senators. This is important for both parties, especially for the Moderate Party in the elections to the Senate and the New Republican in the elections of governors

()

As a result, the negotiations were called very successful at the briefing of both parties. After the talks, it became known that the parties would support one candidate in such races as:
1) IN-Sen. Joe Donnelly (M) will be supported by the NRP
2) MO-Sen. Claire McCaskill (M) will be supported by the NRP
3) ND-Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (M) will be supported by the NRP
4) NJ-Sen. Frank LoBiondo (N) will be supported by the MOD
5) TN-Sen. Phil Bredesen (M) will be supported by the NRP
6) CO-Gov. Mike Coffman (N) will be supported by the MOD
7) ID-Gov. Brad Little (N) will be supported by the MOD
8) NV-Gov. Joe Heck (N) will be supported by the MOD


In the future between these parties it is planned to cooperate in such races as:
1) ME-Senate
2) MN-Senate (both)
3) MT-Senate
4) WV-Senate
5) ME-Governor
6) MI-Governor
7) TN-Governor
, where only one of these parties has its own candidate

They also discussed the race to the House of Representatives. While in the Senate, cooperation is significantly advantageous to the Moderate Party, in the elections for governors it is equally beneficial for both, then in racing to the House, cooperation is more beneficial to the New Republican Party

But still the parties could not reach an agreement everywhere. The uncompromising were the races such as:
1) AZ-Senate
2) NV-Senate
3) TX-Senate
4) CO-Governor
5) FL-Governor
6) GA-Governor
7) IL-Governor
8) IA-Governor
9) KS-governor
10) MN-Governor

and many others, where at the moment all parties have their own candidate or one of the two parties supported the nominee of the Democrats or the Republicans

Brett Kavanaugh- Trump nominee to SCOTUS
July 2018

President Trump select 53 year old Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit Brett Kavanaugh to replace retiring Anthony Kennedy

Later around Kavanaugh began to spread rumors about his obscene behavior, namely sexual accusations. Kavanaugh himself denies everything and calls it an attempt to disrupt his career

Trump began to defend his nominee and called the latest events a conspiracy between Democrats and pseudo-Republicans against him and against the United States as a whole. It deepened the split in society

It is anticipated that voting for Kavanaugh will greatly affect the position of the Moderate Party Senators in re-election in their states, since most of them will re-elected or will lost in very red states where society is strongly set up by pro-Kavanaugh

Democrats are categorically opposed to the Trump nomination. Their leaders have already stated that they will do their best to confront the election of Kavanaugh

The preliminary voting in the Judiciary Committee in the Senate is scheduled for early September

Recall, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee is Mike Lee (R-UT)
Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee is Richard Blumenthal (D-CT)
New Republican Party leader in the Senate Judiciary Committee is Lindsey Graham (N-SC)
Moderate Party leader in the Senate Judiciary Committee is Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)

Trump's tour on the countries of Middle East

Despite the huge criticism in the United States and other countries, Donald Trump assured of maintaining friendly relations with Saudi Arabia. An agreement on the supply of expensive weapons of Saudi Arabia was signed there

From Saudi Arabia, where Trump spent two days, he went to a meeting with the North Korean leader Kim Jong-Ying in Helsinki, Finland on a neutral territory. The meeting between both sides was called constructive. North Korea has taken on the responsibility not to conduct nuclear tests for a year and to gradually eliminate nuclear stockpiles. The USA, for its part, promised not to impose new sanctions on North Korea and gradually reduce old sanctions

Governor of Arizona Doug Ducey appointed John McCain's wife Cindy McCain to replace him in the Senate



This replacement is regarded as negative by the leaders of the Republicans, since Cindy McCain has very modest views and will stick to her husband's voting lines and will also be the merciless critic of Mr. President

Trump went on tour in the US to support Republican candidates to the Senate or to the post of Governors

Trump meeting with Putin

President Trump met with his Russian counterpart in Vienna, Austria. The conversation between the leaders of the two countries lasted 3 hours. After, at a press conference, despite numerous evidence of Russian intervention in the 2016 US election, Trump assured that this did not happen. The US President also said that it is necessary to develop bilateral relations and to reach a compromise on many issues. About such hot spots as Syria and Ukraine said nothing

()

Speech by Trump after the meeting caused unprecedented criticism from the side of not only the three opposition parties, but also some Republicans. He was called Putin's servant, as a leading role at a joint press conference was given to Putin, and Trump only supported everything the President of Russia said. There have been many calls for Trump Impeachment. Whether this will happen will soon be known

()

Meanwhile, the special prosecutor Muller said that he would intensify the investigation of the Russian ties of Trump. Invited to interrogate translators at a meeting with Putin

Return of Nancy Pelosi?

After Nancy Pelosi resigned from Congress in early 2018, in May she said she would run again in her old district (CA-12), a seat still vacant. Subsequently, she won the election as a Democrat, it became a big surprise, since in March 2018 she talked about completing her political career

()

The elections became more or less successful for Democrats, they managed to keep almost all their seats in the House. Already after the general election, 78-year-old Pelosi announced that he would fight for the Democrat leader in the House

It marked the centrist turn of the party. Anti-Pelosi united extremely progressive figures of the Democratic Party. This association existed around the current leader of the Democrats, Raul Grijalva (D-AZ-03). More centrist Democrats supported Pelosi in her quest to return to leadership, led by Ben Ray Lujan (D-NM-03)

Mass media say Nancy Pelosi has promised Ben Ray Lujan position of a Democratic Leader in the House if Pelosi will be the Speaker. Nancy Pelosi conducted an active campaign, met with almost all Democrats in the House, working and newly elected. While Raul Grijalva claimed that Pelosi was unable to run the House and resist Trump worthy of it. The main issue of divergence is the impeachment of the President. While Grijalva advocated the immediate impeachment of Trump, Pelosi argued that it was necessary to wait for the preliminary findings of the Mueller commission

There was also a question about the existence of 4 parties in the House. How should this happen? 1 variant was the formation of a coalition, 2 was the same system as in the 2nd half of the 115th Congress. Pelosi met the leaders of the Moderate Party, after which two of the leaders of the Moderates Stephanie Murphy and Collin Peterson declared their readiness to form a coalition with the Democratic Party, provided that its leader will be Pelosi. This was also stated by the more moderate NRP members who rallied around Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. So, if Democrats choose their leader, Nancy Pelosi, they will be able to form and lead a coalition in the House

Full list of candidates for the Demicratic Leader in the House of Representatives:
1) Nancy Pelosi (D-CA-12)
2) Raul Grijalva (D-AZ-03)
3) Terri Sewell (D-AL-07)

It is known that the fight will be held between Nancy Pelosi and Raul Grijalva.

Former Presidents Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, former Vice President Joe Biden and many other officials have recently announced their support for Pelosi.
While Bernie Sanders, Jeff Merkley and Elizabeth Warren provided full-fledged support to the current Leader Raul Grijalva

Тerrorist attack in a school in Georgia

A terrorist attack took place in one of Georgia's schools. As a result, 53 people (30 african and 23 white) were killed. 47 students and 6 teachers were killed. Another 90 people are wounded in hospitals. So far, nobody has assumed responsibility for it.

Governor Stacey Abrams urgently convened a press conference. In parallel, Donald Trump spoke at the White House with immediate appeal to the nation, the President instructed all special services to initially investigate the terrorist attack.

An excerpt from Governor Stacey Abrams's speech:
Quote
"Good morning. First of all, I want to express my condolences to the victims of the terrorist attack, I want to express my condolences to the families of the victims, they will be punished! You hear, I promise you, they will be punished! And now I want to appeal to you, killers, I I know you hear me! You are scum, you ... do not you have a drop of conscience ... there is no drop of pity, human compassion? Come kill me, kill government officials, why kill children? What are they guilty of? You will pay for everything, do you hear? You will pay for everything! You need to kill! You do not deserve to live!"

()

Stacey began to cry. A press conference was announced. After 5 minutes, she turned around. She has just started to say the traditional slogans that are typical of democrats and moderate:

Quote
"In such difficult times we need to unite ... Let's be together ... We need to resist the policy of the Republicans and President Trump, because that is precisely what causes such events."

She said a lot of slogans
And then she started crying again. Her hysterics began. Doctors ran to her, they began to calm her. Under her own shouts, "You are all punished. You do not deserve to live!", Stacy fell. She was taken to resuscitation. An hour later the doctors announced the death of the governor.

()
Lieutenant Governor John Barrow, who was elected in 2018 began to assume the duties of the Governor.

Donald Trump was calm today.
In his press conference, he expressed his broad condolences to the victims and the families of the dead, and also promised to kill the organizers of the terrorist attack on his own. After announcing the Governor's death, he immediately expressed his condolences on Twitter

Senate passes Trump's taxes reform

Today, United States passes Trump's taxes reform 51-50. All Democrats voted against it, while all Republican Senators voted for it. Three Moderare Senators (D.Jones, J.Manchin and K.Sinema) voted to favor of it, while two New Republican Senators (S.Collins and L.Murkowski) voted in opposition to it. So Senate balance was 50-50. Vice President of the US Mike Pence voted for it and taxes reform was accepted

The tax policy of the state determines the social philosophy and generally accepted values ​​of its society. Public debates about the choice of philosophy and approaches to taxation are often fierce, and the opponents taking part in them are irreconcilable. Discussing and choosing the tax policy of the state, society, thus, discusses and chooses what it should be and what role should be assigned in it to the state.

If the state’s fiscal policy determines the values ​​and priorities of the nation as a whole, which of these values ​​can we see in Trump’s so-called tax reform recently adopted by the US government?

On November 12, 2019, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, signed the Law “On Tax Reduction and the Creation of New Jobs” (“Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”, TCJA), which:

- reduces the corporate tax rate,
- makes taxation of ordinary Americans more understandable and, in general, is aimed at improving the economic situation in the country.
"Republicans care only about the rich" - confirmed the Democrats after the vote

IOWA PRIMARY

Now all voices in Iowa are processed. And we can predict the winners in all parties. Let's start with the Democratic Party.

Democratic Party Primary

Kirsten Gillibrand 27,43%
Elizabeth Warren 26,03%
Cory Booker 20,86%
Jeff Merkley 9,14%
Kamala Harris 9,08%
Gavin Newsom 7,46%


The Democrats' results have become the unexpected rise of Warren's candidacy. Recent polls predicted her 3rd place with a large margin from the first two candidates, Gillibrand and Booker, respectively. For Gillibrand, this victory was expected. While Jeff Merkley showed a slightly worse result than expected. Kamala Harris did not focus on Iowa, so 5th place from 6 was not a surprise. The goals for Harris were Nevada and South Carolina.

There were also rumors that Governor California Gavin Newsom, which took 6th place (as expected), but with a very low score, will be out of the race. This denied the Newsom office, but the governor's further prospects were clear to everyone. He will be out of the race after New Hampshire or Nevada.

A sharp struggle will be held in New Hampshire, with just four candidates competing for victory, namely: Gillibrand, Warren, Merkley and Harris. It is believed who wins this state will have a strong impetus in the states of New England. Nevada will vote for Harris and it's not a secret. The second place there is Merkley. But in South Carolina there is a sharp struggle between Harris and Booker.


Moderate Party Primary

Sherrod Brown 27,95%
Fred Hubbell 26,88%
Mark Warner 26,12%
John Hickenlooper 11,12%
Andrew Cuomo 7,93%

The primary of the Moderate Party unexpectedly won Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown, who could count on 2 or 3 in the latest polls. Governor of Iowa Fred Hubbell took second place. This is a real blow to his campaign. Without winning his native state, where he has been a governor for a year, his chances for further victory are significantly reduced.

The real shock came from Governor New York Andrew Cuomo. He was prophesied 4th place with 15-17% of votes, instead he finished the last, having not got to 8%. At this time, we know that his campaign is already preparing an appeal for the disappearance of the race.

At the moment in the field of moderate slightly lightening. Everyone understands that the fight will be held between Senator Warner and Senator Brown. It can be said that Nevada will accurately vote for Brown, while South Carolina will vote for Warner.

Further results depend on the results of party primaries in New Hampshire, where Warner and Brown have equal chances to win


New Republican Party Primary

Phil Scott 22,36%
Bill Haslam 22,07%
Brian Sandoval 21,87%
Mike Coffman 20,43%
Greg Orman 13,27%

In New Republican Party it was a sharp rise for Governor of Vermont Phil Scott, who was to take 3rd place, but unexpectedly won. The results of the primaries became a blow to Bill Haslam, who was counting on victory. If he can not win the South Carolina, then his chances of winning the nomination will be zero.

Greg Orman, who from the start was a clear outsider, showed a low but exacerbated than expected outcome. Mike Coffman, as expected, finished fourth.

Further results are not based on New Hampshire primary, but from South Carolina primary, where all the candidates, other than Orman, can count on victory. Nevada will vote for former popular Governor of this state Brian Sandoval with 60% according to polls.

Among the New Republican Party's paramyrists, realistic odds of victory are Phil Scott, Bill Haslam and Brian Sandoval


Republican Party Primary

Donald Trump 62,23%
Don Bankenship 37,77%


The least we can say about the Republican Party. Donald Trump wins Don Blankenship with a bigger margin than expected a month ago, but much less than expected a year ago.

For the incumbent President, the victory of the primaries of the Republicans will not be a big problem
