| | | Now you all know I am a fan of the 4th turning as you should be as well, however I believe another way to look at things and put this into context is in this manner.
Right now I see elements of these three Presidents at play in President Trump.
George Washington- One of our Founding Fathers (more on that in a minute)
Andrew Jackson- The President has more in common with this President than any other, also remember Old Hickory's fight with the Bank of the United States played out in the press (sound familiar? It was pretty much Old Hickory against the bankers and their agents the press)
Abraham Lincoln- The President is presiding over a divided Republic
Now I think that this upcoming election have elements of all of the following because of the confluence of these 3 factors.
1.Of course this is the 4th Fourth Turning in American History
2.This upcoming recession will turn into a depression because just like 1929 the market meltdown will be accompanied by a currency/banking crisis
3. And this is important because this 4th turning will be different than the other 3 because it will mark a transition in America's history and can be best explained this way. Empires have 3 phases Beginning, Middle, End
When I bring all of this together this is what I believe and can be summed up this way.
President Trump will be known in history as the Re-founding Father of America.
This is how the 3 Presidents above come together.
We are now 12 years into the winter cycle and are currently in the Eye of the Hurricane but you can see the back half of the hurricane coming.
You see I believe President Trump and average Americans over 50 know that Socialism is not what America was founded on but those under 50 do not. (The reason for this ignorance can be debated, but it is clearly evident that younger Americans Millennials do not look like Gen X, Baby Boomers, or greatest Generation)
With that in mind America is making this transition in this turning. We are at the End of the Beginning of America and are transitioning to the Beginning of the Middle in the history of the American Empire.
For example Gen X, BB, and GG all see America through the eyes of the Founding Fathers and can understand America from its start. However Millennials are all challenged and conflicted about what America is about.
Do you see younger Americans understanding why we have Freedom of Speech, The Second Amendment, Capitalism or embracing the Judeo-Christian value system?
You see I think from 1776-2001 was the Beginning of America. Things changed for the worst (IMO) when 9=11 hit. What did we get? The patriot act and a great erosion of rights. The Clinton Administration started the vicious assault on the Second Amendment and also the repeal of Glass Stegal. Judeo-Christian values have been under assault for years but what was College Academia's response to 9-11 to embrace Islam and indoctrinate for Allah.
So for the last 20 years we have been in the transitory time as we move from the end of the beginning to the beginning of the middle.
And this is how/why I believe DJT will become the re-founding Father of America. He will set the stage for the next 100-200 years of American History by embracing elements of the 3 presidents I have mentioned.
However, he will be influenced the most and look more like Andrew Jackson than any other President.
A banking crisis is lurking in the next part of the Fourth Turning. He will have to defeat or change the Federal Reserve. The history of central banks is the following. They must go through a reset every 100 years. Well the Federal Reserve has been around for 107 years. The history of fiat currencies is they always return to their intrinsic value of ZERO.
This is why Gold is so important right now. Trump will have to beat the bank. Unlike under FDR Americans are not going to be stupid enough to give their Gold to the treasury like 1933. I believe the next depression will by hyper inflationary. So we will probably follow the path of the Wiemar Republic and will solve the inflation much like the Germans. We are going to go to a two tier dollar or a crypto currency. This dollar will have to be backed by something. So ask yourself what asset does the Federal Government have alot of that is accumulated for next to nothing? Yep you guessed it land.
So this is where it really gets interesting. You see while all this is going on Trump will face a crisis in keeping the Republic together. Lincoln was the last person to face this type of crisis. I see in addition to a political divide between Republican/Democrat or Conservative/Socialist. Trump could now have a States vs. Federal Government crisis on his hands. How do you think all those states who have Federal Land will feel if the Federal Government decides to back a new dollar with this asset? In addition, an Article V Constitutional Convention is already gaining steam and this first plank is a balanced budget which is going to conflict with what the FED and Congress want to do.
So if successful Trump may soon have many crisis on his hands. He will have to defeat Socialism/Communism decisively, deal with a financial/banking crisis not seen since 1929, and hold the country together. If he does it with the conservative values he is supporting then we will keep capitalism and re-embrace the bill of rights and the Judaeo-Christian values we were founded upon. However it will look different than it has in the past.
If he does this he will be seen as the Re-Founding Father of America, if not then the Republic is finished and the middle chapter of America will quickly turn into the final chapter of America.
