What Trump Means To Preppers
What does the election of Donald Trump mean to preppers? It means there is a lot of good stuff in the future.
End free trade and bring our jobs back from China.
Let China know we will no longer bow to them.
Restore relations with Russia.
Restore good relations with Britain. President obama made some disparaging comments after Britain left the EU.
Bomb ISIS back to the stone age. Even if you feel ISIS is no threat to the United States, they are a threat to stability in the middle east and they are a human rights issue.
ISIS is killing innocent civilians. Their actions have caused hundreds of thousands to flee the middle east. Destroy ISIS so families can return to their homes.
Secure our borders.
End decades of globalism.
No chance of new gun laws for several years.
Maybe we can get those M1s and 1911 from South Korea for the civilian marksmanship program?
Rewrite the tax code that gives companies incentives to leave the USA.

The Rule of Holes. Just as soon as you notice you are standing in a hole, stop digging.
We have been digging since George HW Bush announced a New World Order..
I hope Trump will pull us out af the hole, but I am confident we will stop digging.

Trump means a lot of good stuff, but I wouldn't get complacent on any of the issues that hes promised either.
Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

I think it will be interesting to see IF the "establishment" will be willing to work with him toward the will of the people, while I hope things change,for the better, I'm in "wait and see" mode at the moment
The right tolerated the left for the last eight years better than the left is going to tolerate the right going forward. Civil unrest alone will bring about deteriorating conditions in the United States. A monetary crises already in the making will be unable to be averted. Any healing or rebuilding of this country will be emphatically and sometimes violently attacked by opposition to anything the new leader proposes or implements. We are headed for more chaos than ever, and it'll be ushered in by the losing party.
It depends: never mind riots, the people may be prosecuted for the previous riots (including people on the top). The election fraud investigated fully. Media (especially connected to the actual criminals) will lose the protection it has enjoyed for many many years. Including political connection to violent gangs and outright terrorists. Many more things may be done to put the enemies on the defensive.The right tolerated the left for the last eight years better than the left is going to tolerate the right going forward. Civil unrest alone will bring about deteriorating conditions in the United States. A monetary crises already in the making will be unable to be averted. Any healing or rebuilding of this country will be emphatically and sometimes violently attacked by opposition to anything the new leader proposes or implements. We are headed for more chaos than ever, and it'll be ushered in by the losing party.
The "crises" in the making would actually have a better chance to be averted or mitigated due to a greater confidence of the people in their leaders and such.
Y'all are overly optimistic and are forgetting the shadow government, the deep state etc. that really runs things. JFK found out the hard way.
WalMart dictates to their vendors what they will pay to allow the product to be sold in their stores. Look up the Huffy or Schwinn stories of how bicycle manufacturing left the USA. Does anyone believe the Waltons are going to roll over? Can the taxpayers afford to subsidize all the manufacturing like Trump proposes with Carrier?
This turnaround requires nationalism where the people reject imports and only buy domestic goods which don't exist anymore. We've got generations of low price shoppers that could care less about how the product gets made. They have swallowed the globalist's pill which was an easy task by importing millions of immigrants that have no allegiance to their adopted country.
I realize that tariffs are proposed on imports but in the global scheme of things this represents billions if not trillions of dollars lost to shareholders. Wall Street will not stand for this unless it's part of the engineered economic collapse plan where those at the top of the pyramid make out like bandits (again) and the lower tiers jump out of tall buildings. See the crash of 1929 and run up prior to the fall. The DOW is over 19K......are you kidding me?? Based on what? Just another bubble.
So, Mr. Trump needs to round up all those Black Friday "Americans" and instill a new value system of quality over quantity. Shareholders need to be happy with reduced gains. Good luck with that!

Trump won't have to do a whole lot with the "protesters".The right tolerated the left for the last eight years better than the left is going to tolerate the right going forward. Civil unrest alone will bring about deteriorating conditions in the United States. A monetary crises already in the making will be unable to be averted.

The Republicans have 31 state governors to 18 for the Democrats (with 1 independent.). I suspect the rabble & their rousers will be put down in those 31 states, along with a good numbers of the Dem governed states, too. The unrest will not be as widespread or as crippling as people anticipate.
Protests based on righteous indignation is one thing. Rioting & general mayhem fueled by trumped-up charges of racism & false narratives will peter-out pretty quickly.
The regional governors now have direct control over their territories. Fear will keep the local systems in line. -- Governor Tarkin
just so there's no confusion in the written word...I did vote for, and am glad that Trump won.
as for what's changed/or will change?
I was a middle class middle aged white guy last year..and there were plenty of people who hated me simply because of the color of my skin or who they assumed I may be...there were riots, violence a plenty and reason to pack a gun on my person.
next year.. I believe there will be more of the same...they simply believe they have a cause to rally behind now..so i will continue to pack a gun on my person.
I avoid buying cheap junk from Malaysia so while I anticipate trade deals/pressures will see a rise in the cost of walmart products.. it wont change my buying habits much.
my overall attitude is expected to improve as I believe that I will have an administration (not just trump but his cabinet) that will be more favorable, fair, maybe even pro-biased towards guys like me, my work ethics, my faith, my race and age...rather than showing obvious favor to a community and class that I was not a part of and seeking to somehow punish me at every oppty.
but again, not much will change. I will continue to work hard for a living, worship as i believe, love my family , offer a smile and a friendly hand to those who want one, and the barrel of a gun to those who are coming at me with intent to harm.

^ Where you and I disagree. I see this sort of activity increasing. Of course, I hope your prediction is the correct one.Rioting & general mayhem fueled by trumped-up charges of racism & false narratives will peter-out pretty quickly.
He is one guy against the new world order - one gubernment, one digital currency, one religion of big gubernment.
Hopefully he can buy us some time so more people can wake up and learn to take care of themselves and have some supplies and skills to accomplish the task.
The print money system is broken. The banksters charge us interest on stuff then "print" out of thin air. Back in the day it took time to print $100 bills now they just create digitally. In 1913 a $100 bill would buy like 5 ounces of gold and today you get less than 1/10 an ounce. That buying power was stolen by your gubernment and the Feral Reserve System of central banks - a federation of corruption.

I see a start to the return of sorts to the ideals that made us America, meaning:
1. Hopefully, the church has awoken, we as a people will repent, and God will not mete out the punishment that our country so richly deserves.
2. Hopefully, jobs and infrastructure for THIS country will be a priority.
3. Hopefully, the welfare state that supports 1/2 the country with your's and my tax dollars will be reigned in some, prompting the re-education of the freeloaders to the idea of "you work you eat, you don't you starve".
4. Hopefully, once again the world will fear the U.S. now that we have leadership.
5. Hopefully, ISIS will become WAS-WAS.
6. Hopefully, race relations will start to improve now that many minorities are starting to realize that the Democratic Party is NOT helping them by giving them more welfare.
7. Hopefully, we will reign in spending and disbursing money around the world like it was free.
8. Hopefully, we will renew our efforts to become totally energy self-reliant.
9. Hopefully, we will put education back into the hands of the states and get the federal government out of the classrooms.
10. Hopefully, we will begin manufacturing again instead of relying on products from everywhere else in the world.
The future certainly looks a lot brighter, and there is more hope, now than there was right before the election. Trump got elected because the people that actually contribute to society want to see that we Make America Great Again.

there's a lot more reason to prep, now; we're in for a BUMPY flight.What does the election of Donald Trump mean to preppers? It means
It is good to see the hope all of you have. Don't be too disappointed when only 1 or 2 of those things happens. We have a president not a king and not a dictator there is a limit to what one person can do especially in a system as broken and corrupt as ours.
Also some of you seem to be forgetting that he was a democrat and big Clinton supporter until 2012, so I think you will find him to be much more moderate than you are expecting. I do think he will be good for the country and will accomplish a couple of the things on our christmas wish lists, but it certainly won't be revolutionary change.

I'm happy he won and hope he can/will do what he promised, but I see the time between now and his inauguration as VERY dangerous. The radicals in the mideast's best friend O Bummer can't do them any more favors after Janurary. THEY TELL US THEY WANT TO DESTROY US. Unlike our politicians they mean what they say.
I am keeping everything sensitive to an EMP as protected as possible until Trump is pres. My faraday cabinet is full and I put my Japanese K truck in a shipping container. All my gas cans will soon be full, water storage and propane nearly full. I'm in Defcon 3 mode until Janurary.

Trump in the White House increases the chance of putting the US in a new war by an order of magnitude.
He increases the chance of a nuclear war by two orders of magnitude.
So you better get ready.

Wall of China
People say building a wall won't work...
China built a wall thousands of years ago and they don't have ANY problem with illegal Mexicans over there.

On jobs - Trump can say a lot and even try a lot, but the high paying manufacturing jobs he promises might lead to products that are too expensive to compete on the world market. We'll see.
On guns - definitely better than Hillary.
On world stability - Trump has favored a more unrestricted nuke policy. More nukes in untrustworthy hands = more chance of a nuclear or EMP attack on the US by a non-state or rogue state actor. He may change his tune once he's actual aware of what that policy idea really means.
On ISIS - we've been bombing people back to the Stone Age for years. How has that worked for our foreign policy? Is more of that going to help?
Overall, I'm not as pessimistic as I could be. I was expecting to be disappointed by a Hillary win on Election Day, and instead I was surprised but disappointed in an entirely different way by a Trump win. Life goes on.
