Seemingly overlooked amid the simple tweet presented by Donald Trump last evening was the glaringly obvious: the President Elect, after winning the White House, is directly talking to the Chairman of the Ford Motor Company.

FULL STOP.
Think about it. Big Picture.
Donald Trump is focused, intensely focused, on Main Street – not wall street. The era of Main Street, middle-class, American economics becoming the primary interest of economic policy is right now. Do you think President Obama would ever give consideration to calling a captain of American industry, personally?

This is not a President-Elect talking to Warren Buffet about Wall Street’s best interests and how the financial class can be a partner with government (vis-a-vis Bush circa ’07/’08).
This is a fundamental paradigm shift. A conversation about the what is the best play for a Main Street corporation, which has direct impact on middle-class jobs.
This is exactly what candidate Trump said he was going to do. Don’t get caught up in the media obfuscation, accept it for what it is.
It is not a simple feat to untangle the multi-decade web of corporate outsourcing for profit (Wall Street). Many would say it is an impossible task, but we did not elect many, we elected the one man who said that is exactly what he is willing to do – focus intensely on Main Street economics.
There are going to be internal adverse interests who have a vested stake in global manufacturing and production benefits. Those multinational corporate interests are going to be in opposition to national economic interests, and President Trump is going to have to navigate his way through their oppositional efforts while trying to offset any negative impacts to the American people.
The false song of globalism is more than just multiculturalism (Geo-political), it is first and foremost a matter of economics.
The redistribution of American wealth has been a slow burning fuse, a cancer upon the American middle-class, for decades.
Fortunately, we have a president-elect, a blue collar billionaire, who is uniquely skilled to cut out this infectious problem and deliver clear margins to U.S. workers.
There are two specific areas to be addressed: 1) the corruption in DC and the draining of the swamp to remove the professional political class and the Wall Street (lobbying) influence over legislative priorities.  and 2) putting Main Street economics, America First, as the primary beneficiary of enterprise.
Some policy proposals will merge the two initiatives, but individually they are also very unique challenges.
You may remember the discussion about the moment when politicians became more valuable to Wall Street than Main Street.  The accompanying legislative influence followed the shifted priorities and K-Street expanded.  President Donald Trump is constructing the framework to reverse this mutually beneficial arrangement and put the legislative emphasis back on Main Street as the primary beneficiary.
Removal of regulation and empowering full utilization of energy resources is the quick start into the carburetor of the domestic economic engine.  Using tax policy to infuse manufacturing and production with capital while making domestic long-term investment the best play for financial return is another aspect.  Accelerated depreciation schedules only amplify the investment and return possibilities.
The return of the Industrial Titans will also unleash true business entrepreneurship where innovation and uniquely American skills of product development are national advantages. Americans know how to think independently, often outside the box, innovation is in our national DNA.
We still have people, captains of industry, who know how to harness this advantage and turn ideas into jobs, they just need to be empowered, reinvigorated and emboldened.  It will happen.  What America can dream an American can create.
Other nations have to read about our innovation in books, manuals and on-line publication affording them only duplication.  This is why everyone comes to America to learn/study innovation; then they export our ideas back to their home countries.  It doesn’t matter if it’s the cotton gin, the automobile, the airplane or the computer chip.
We are also blessed to have the natural resources needed to fully develop a renewed manufacturing economy.  The underlying architecture and infrastructure is right here in our own back yards.  The possibilities are only limited to our own imagination.
However, there are adversarial interests, multinational corporations, who remain invested in the American outsourcing model.  Together with foreign interests they will work to undermine any change in the current service-driven, ie. ‘dependency’, economic model which they built over the past 30 years.
Climate change is the platform for carbon trading, another Wall Street creation as analogous as derivatives and just as financially toxic.
That said, it has only been a little more than a week, and you can already see/hear the sound of steel toed boots beginning to rumble.  Take heart, we have a champion in our corner….
