On the Eve of the Midterms, Closing on Willie Horton? Plus, MH Market Updates

CNNmoney11.5.2018ManufacturedHomeStocksMarketsReportsMHProNewsMarkets rose, but they’ve been bouncing around pre-midterms through much of October.  This past weekend, several of the Sunday talk shows featured the booming economy.  It was a surprising pivot from media outlets that have kept mum of the economic boom in roughly 21 months of President Trump’s administration. With a booming economy – recently rated by an international monitor as the best in the world – mainstream media voices are asking, why is the economy not getting more emphasis by Team Trump? Why are they closing instead of what Democrats and left-leaning media decry as a Willie Horton style theme?

The die is almost cast.  The pundits and talking heads in 36 hours will be talking about why the results of the midterms.  The panels will ask, why did it go this way instead of that way?

Many now are saying that the market turbulence has been pre-election jitters.

Investors like certainty.

As part of the agenda media, CNBC tonight has a video that says that investors should “hope” for a split House and Senate.  They have a pundit that says that investors should want the GOP in charge of the Senate, and Democrats in charge of the House.  That’s one view.

Some normally anti-Trump media outlets this past weekend surprisingly praised the economy, and then asked: why isn’t the president spending more time talking about the economy than about immigration? Why did the GOP roll out an ad that even Fox News said they would not run?

A new GOP backing ad is being compared to the controversial Willie Horton ad from the late 1980s. That ad, by the way, worked. This is what a CBS affiliate in Boston, a clearly anti-Trump outlet had to say.  They include some clips of the controversial video, which features an illegal immigrant who killed cops, and said he wants to kill more.

 

What follows below is the controversial Willie Horton ad that some say helped sweep the George Bush to victory over Michael Dukakis.  Note that YouTube says that this ad was not run by the GOP or the Bush campaign.  The “Infamous attack ad from 1988 U.S. Election against Michael Dukakis. This ad was ran by the National Security PAC, not directly by the Bush/Quayle campaign,” is how it was described.


Perhaps the Willie Horton ad would not have been described as racist if Willie had been Anglo, but the principle applied.  That’s water under the bridge.

The illegals coming into the U.S. aren’t white. Is it really racist to show clips of a courtroom video?

Immigration is a strong motivating issue for millions of GOP voters.  It is unclear if this ad will have the effect that it aims for, because it is being discussed by mostly negative news analysts in a mostly negative way.  Fox News won’t run it.

That said, a few observations from those who have observed a number of Trump rallies in 2018.

  • The economy is discussed in some detail at rallies.
  • Health care is discussed, including the GOP position that pre-existing conditions will be protected.
  • Veterans’ health care is a talking point.
  • The “right to try” law is discussed.
  • Defense and foreign policies are rally topics too.
  • All of that is framed in the context of “promises made, promised kept.”
  • On immigration, it is one of the issues that gets voters motivated.

Texas has studied the immigration issue.  Literally hundreds of thousands of crimes in that state are committed by illegals.

According to Texas Department of Public Safety: “According to DHS status indicators, over 270,000 criminal aliens have been booked into local Texas jails between June 1, 2011 and October 31, 2018, of which over 182,000 were classified as illegal aliens by DHS.”

This writers is someone who came to the U.S. legally.  Our publisher is the son of 2 legal immigrants, who applied and waited for years to come to America.

The immigration question is often morphed into something that it shouldn’t be.  Laws exist for a reason.  Immigration laws exist for a reason too.  It is unjust and unsafe to allow people to enter the nation without vetting. It is unsafe for those making the journey.  It is unsafe for citizens on both sides of the border.

Will the president’s gamble pay off on the immigration issue pay off?  In about 36 hours, we’ll know more. For other topics, from an industry perspective, see the related reports, linked below.
