The Anti-Trump Stock Market Rally

All the Wall Street averages are at all-time highs, with many stock leaders up as much as 20 percent since the first of the year.

August summertime rallies, especially in presidential election years, are not unusual (sometimes to be followed by September drops). I think, however, this rally has all the earmarks of being anti-Trump. It certainly tracks very well inversely with the decline of his national and battleground state poll numbers, and the rise of Hillary's, over the past month.

Trump's disastrous gaffes and antics continue apace:

• He luridly alluded to Monica Lewinsky’s blue dress at a Connecticut rally. One wonders whether his New York married mistresses used his own brand, Trump R Us, dry cleaners.

• He claimed he would be ahead 20 points in Pennsylvania, except for the biased national media—led by the New York Times, which he threatens to ban from his campaign (the Washington Post is already under a Trump fatwa)—but also suggested he might lose there because of voters fraud on the part of minority voters including illegals voting ten times for Hillary Clinton. Trump’s “solution” is “election monitors.” Who does he propose to use: racist biker gangs or Putin KGB operatives on vacation from Crimea?

• The New York Times features reports from the Ukrainian government’s anti-corruption unit of the discovery of ledgers in an office rife with loose one hundred dollar bills showing Trump Campaign Manager Manafort (who denies the report) receiving 12.6 million U.S. from Ukrainian political operatives who essentially worked for Putin’s plot to take over that former Soviet republic. Manafort never complied with U.S. law by registering as a foreign lobbyist for either Putin’s satellite Ukrainian government or for Russia. Trump has just delivered his major speech on defeating ISIS. He squares the circle  by blaming the George W. Bush Administration for a “nation building war” to replace Trump's alleged anti-terrorist chum Saddam Hussein, while blaming the Obama Administration for stopping nation bulidng in Iraq–thereby creating ISIS. He also suggests that Russia will do our dirty work of defeating ISIS in the Middle East, presumably after they finish reincorporating Ukraine with Manafort's paid cheer leading from inside the White House.

• Trump used a poster showing Hillary Clinton’s picture stamped on a U.S. Dollar bill to make the point that Uncle Sam is being ripped off by foreign aid to Middle East nations (Arab ones, not Israel). The same poster was previously splashed on the Internet by David Duke, but with anti-Semitic and anti-Israel symbols incorporated.

Finally, in light of polls showing Donald Trump’s support in the African American community ranging from 1 to 4 percent (a smidge lower than Obama’s opponents  in 2008-2012!), the Republican National Committee has joined Roger Simon of PJMedia to urge that “Trump Should Go for the Black Vote—NOW!”

I suggest an alternative, more promising strategy than Trump going after African American or Jewish votes. Professor David Jacobs teaches history at Temple University. He is a noted authority on alien abductions, i.e., not Trump’s imagined menace of illegal crossing our borders but native-born Americans of all races and religions being vertically kidnapped by UFOs and biologically altered to the returned to the U.S., including not least to areas of presidential political battlegrounds like Pennsylvania.

Jacobs concludes that the constituency of “humanoid hybrid” abductees may number in the hundreds of thousands. This is certainly a promising constituency for Trump to mobilize and Manafort to milk for consulting fees.

I plan to email Jacobs to ask whether the alien mother ship—Louis Farrakhan also claims to be in contact with it—may have already recruited Putin to preemptively infiltrate the Trump Campaign.
