Peter Schiff: Trump Played the Trump Card During His Speech Thursday (Video)
In the following podcast, Peter Schiff analyzes Donald Trump’s speech from Thursday night. Make no mistake, Peter is not a Trump fan by any means, not as a politician anyway, but unlike most Americans these days, Peter is able to objectively talk about the speech without foaming at the mouth, or spitting venom.
Throughout his analysis Peter points out what should be obvious to anyone thinking about voting for Hillary, yet somehow isn’t. Democrats should be flocking to Trump, whether they like his personality or not. After all, how many blacks, Latinos, blue collar workers, or women are better off now than they were eight years ago? Virtually none.
Blacks and Latinos are worse off now by virtually every measurable statistic that is even tracked! What has Obama (or any other Democrat) done about the wage gap between men and women? Nothing! Why? Because the issue is more complex than a sound bite. How many blue collar workers had good jobs eight years ago, and now have three part-time jobs to replace them?
What Democrats voters fail to grasp after DECADES of failure in cases ANYWHERE Democrats have been in power long enough (like inner cities), is that the promises of those they elect are hopelessly empty. There is no such thing as a free lunch, not ever. No one person can deliver what Democrats promise, and when Democrats inevitably come up short, somehow Republicans get the blame. It’s insane???
The reality is, the only way to solve ANY of the problems Democrats keep whining about is to elect a Commander In Chief who understands the best thing for a president to do is get out of the way. Peter comments about how one thing in particular is very scary about a Trump Presidency is how much the Trump campaign has made everything so far about Trump the man, and about how much success he’s had in his life personally.
As Peter points out, unfortunately government isn’t a place for people to succeed personally, but don’t tell the voters that. What voters want, and what government needs, are two very different things. Voters want to paint someone as a hero, and Trump has all the makings of that someone.
In the private sector, where Trump comes from, if people work hard, and persevere, they can succeed on their own. In government, success comes from the people being governed finding success, NOT the other way around. The only way for the people being governed to succeed, is for the government to shrink and get out of their way.
As proof, look at those who voted for Obama. Americans voted for him not once but twice, because he promised change, and they got change alright. By every measurable standard, the lower class that Obama promised to help are significantly worse off today than before Obama was elected. That’s not my opinion, that is a mathematical fact, and Michael Snyder points out the math in further detail in the article below.. Now, Clinton is promising more of the same, and people are lining up. It’s crazy!
As Michael Snyder rightly points out below, America is in free fall at the moment. Without a change from the abysmal policy failures delivered by Obama, the same policies that have never worked anywhere they’ve been tried anywhere throughout history, the country is finished.

America is in decline. There are some that still attempt to deny this, but the reason why Donald Trump’s campaign slogan has so strongly resonated with the American people is because deep inside most of us realize that America is not as great as it used to be. Our economy is a mess, we are 19 trillion dollars in debt, our infrastructure is crumbling, crime is on the rise, moral decay is all around us, other countries don’t respect us as much anymore, and our nation is the most divided that it has been in decades. Anyone that believes that America is better than it has ever been in 2016 is either completely delusional or simply has not been paying attention.
As I write this article, the prepared text of Trump’s speech has already been released to the press. So the following remarks may differ slightly from how he actually delivered them, but the differences are not likely to be too great. At one point during his speech, Trump highlighted the rising crime and violence in our cities, and the numbers that he had to share were more than just a little bit alarming…
Decades of progress made in bringing down crime are now being reversed by this Administration’s rollback of criminal enforcement. Homicides last year increased by 17% in America’s fifty largest cities. That’s the largest increase in 25 years. In our nation’s capital, killings have risen by 50 percent. They are up nearly 60% in nearby Baltimore.
In the President’s hometown of Chicago, more than 2,000 have been the victims of shootings this year alone. And more than 3,600 have been killed in the Chicago area since he took office.
The number of police officers killed in the line of duty has risen by almost 50% compared to this point last year. Nearly 180,000 illegal immigrants with criminal records, ordered deported from our country, are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens.
And it is really hard to argue with Trump about this. We have all seen what just happened in Orlando, in Dallas and in Baton Rouge. As I have said so many times before, a spirit of violence and civil unrest is rising in America.
Donald Trump thinks that he can fix this. Unfortunately, I don’t think that any politician will be able to do that at this point.
Our long-term economic decline is another puzzle that our national leaders have been unable to solve. Gallup’s U.S. economic confidence index just hit the lowest level so far this year, and poverty levels continue to rise all over the country. The following is another excerpt from the text of Trump’s speech…
Nearly 4-in-10 African-American children are living in poverty, while 58% of African-American youth are not employed. Two million more Latinos are in poverty today than when the President took his oath of office less than eight years ago. Another 14 million people have left the workforce entirely.
Household incomes are down more than $4,000 since the year 2000. Our manufacturing trade deficit has reached an all-time high – nearly $800 billion in a single year.
The budget is no better. President Obama has doubled our national debt to more than $19 trillion, and growing.
Yet, what do we have to show for it? Our roads and bridges are falling apart, our airports are in Third World condition, and forty-three million Americans are on food stamps.
Even during Obama’s so-called “economic recovery”, the middle class has continued to shrink. Right now, 62 percent of all Americans have less than $1,000 in savings, and millions upon millions of ordinary families find themselves desperately clawing and scratching as they try to survive from month to month.

One very frustrated mother recently shared her feelings about her family’s ongoing financial struggles on scarymommy.com…
I’m tired of my stomach flipping inside when my son mentions he’d like to take a computer class after school. Or when my other son wants to enroll in swim lessons, take an art class, or buy a new bicycle. I’m tired of wondering where on earth we’ll come up with the cash for our children to pursue their interests.
I’m tired of never, ever going on vacations that don’t involve someone flying us out to see them or crashing at someone’s house for free.
I’m tired of wondering how on earth we’ll be able to send our kids to college.
I’m tired of renting, and the almost certain feeling I have that we’ll never be able to afford to buy a house.
I’m tired of having to pretend I’m not worried about it all.
I’m tired of my kids overhearing our worries, of knowing that money is a constant struggle for us.
Before I wrap up this article, I want to share one more stunning example of America’s decline.
Under Barack Obama, corruption and incompetence has spread throughout every part of our government. Sadly, that even includes the Secret Service.
Secret Service agents are supposed to be “the best of the best”, and they are charged with protecting our most important national leaders.
But instead of doing their jobs with seriousness and professionalism, they have been acting like wild animals. Documents that have just been made public reveal that the Secret Service has become an absolute disgrace in recent years…
They highlight incidents in which agents had sexual encounters with underage girls, married agents took part in ‘wheels up, rings off’ parties, and a manager who sexually harassed female subordinates dubbed the National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) the ‘Nice **** and *** Club.’
The documents contain a report about “a male agent who had his gun stolen by a male prostitute he solicited using his government computer in Puerto Rico“, and they also detail the behavior of one agency manager in particular that deserves to be immediately fired…
The report says the manager kept alcohol in his office and forced employees to drink ‘so he could trust them.’
‘He sexually harassed every female subordinate,’ the report says.
The manager would ‘publicly’ male employees: ‘Where are my little whores/*******? Have you slept with them yet?’
If this is what is happening in the Secret Service, can you imagine what is going on in other federal agencies behind closed doors?
America is a complete and total mess, and Donald Trump is completely correct when he talks about the need to make America great again.
But is that even possible, and if so, what would that look like?

STrumph is leaning on the cult of his personality to get into the WH. He’s white, he’s got $$$, he’s got mansions, towers, golf courses, big hair and no brains – perfect for his ‘UNEDUCATED’ electorate.
So you must be willing to vote for a known criminal, murderous admitted Luciferian who is also a Grand Madame in the National Witch Community. Yep, that will certainly make for a better USA
Nope just a canadian worried about the fact that IF that orangutan is elected, not only YOU PEOPLE but the WHOLE WORLD will go down the drain.
That’s hilarious considering what you just elected. What a joke.
According to Pew Research (who’s been studying both parties since 1986) democrats are DUMB and 13% of them are high school drop outs while only 3% of Republicans dropped out. Look in the mirror.
Personally, I have a hard time understanding how only 13% of democrats dropped out when 50% flunk out of the liberal broken down public schools. The democrats can’t even make it through the mess they built.
whether you are a democrat (or especially if you are a democrat) or a republican, you should go see dinesh souza’s film “hillary’s america”. see it with an open mind. you will learn a lot.
Sorry, folks, but Trump has as many Jewish controllers as Hillary, possibly more. See:

Wish you would post this on Dave Hodges site since he is so enamored with Trump. Thinking the good guys are bad and the bad guys are good……!!!!
The offices operating out of Washington D.C. needs a good house cleaning.
And all those operating outside the law need to be thrown out because they are trash.
Americans with good moral character need to be hired to replace the ‘scum’ and ‘above the law types’.
People should be required to pass a test showing they are qualified to do the Federal job before being hired.
In my humble opinion there are lots of things Americans could do to turn our country around and improve our living standards if we had competent moral people holding office in Washington.
