In this episode of the podcast, Jeremy and I delved into the upcoming election in just 2 days!  Jeremy builds the case for why he believes Clinton has this one in the bag, while I try to cast doubt and build a case for why Trump may eek out a win on Tuesday.  

Again, this podcast is about perspective and some may wonder why I am not pushing back on things they think I should call someone out on, or visa versa.  The point is, that's not what this conversation is about.  Also, this podcast was completely unedited.  We wanted to get it out before people went and voted.  So, the audio may be rough, you'll hear me reference cutting things out if need be, but thankfully, we never had to :).  

To clarify some of my rambling statements at the end, I don't think a Trump presidency will be as bad as everyone thinks it will.  He's already stated that he wants to see interest rates go up in the housing market to prick this current bubble.  That would bring on the recession, allow the economy to restructure itself, allow businesses to save, build capital, and grow, instead of outgrow their consumer base, and we may go one to a full economic recovery THANKS to a quicker pricking of the bubble.  

If we continue to kick the can down the road and allow our budgetary deficit and national debt continue to grow, the recession that comes then, will be much deeper, much longer and much harder to recover from.  The sooner we bring on this restructuring, the better.  Its going to suck, but its also inevitable.  Debt is unmanageable at this point.  So the sooner the better.  

So while I think Trump is a risky choice for a lot of reasons, legislatively, I don't think he will have the insane impact people believe he will.  If anything, he may inadvertently do the one thing our country needs the most, getting control of the Federal Reserve.
