Nobody wants to go into the weeds of all those tedious legal proceedings against Trump and Biden, but they could well determine the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. From James Rickards at dailyreckoning.com:
Today, with so much going on in the world, I’m writing about the 2024 presidential election. Why on earth would I write about the November 2024 election in October 2023?.
Because this election is different. The election won’t be decided in November 2024. It’s being decided now.
If you’re an investor, you need to prepare accordingly.
There are two events unfolding in front of our eyes. Democrats have attacked Trump with unprecedented lawfare, and the House of Representatives has started formal proceedings to impeach Joe Biden.
Trump is getting all the attention. But the Biden story is even bigger, and the legacy media are ignoring it almost entirely. My concern is that investors are going to get blindsided by this because of lack of media attention.
The recent ousting of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy plays into this. There are rumors that McCarthy promised conservative representatives impeachment would go forward, while telling moderates that it wouldn’t go forward.
He was trying to appease both sides, in other words. If the new speaker is firmly committed to impeachment, that would likely accelerate the move to impeach.
The Trump indictments are already handed up. There are two federal cases, two state cases and 91 felony charges in total. The trial dates have been announced for March and May of 2024, but the pretrial motions are in full swing.
On top of that, there’s an effort at the state level to remove Trump from any ballot under the so-called “insurrection clause” or Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. That’s a good way to start a revolution.
Thanks for this. The blogger lays out things in clear terms.
James Rickard does indeed lay things out in “clear terms,” plus he has the advantage of doing his own thinking. His take is generally unique.
