Earlier this year, MHProNews advised manufactured housing industry employees that they have potential POWER this year to bring about meaningful change in the problematic behavior of several prominent Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) brands. More on that in the postscript following the headline items.

Part I
ELECTION 2024
Donald Trump, class traitor par excellence
‘Americans are inclined to believe the country is on the wrong track’
By Josh Hammer | October 25, 2024
If there is one data point above all that suggests Donald Trump and JD Vance are headed for a resounding victory on Nov. 5, it is this: By a nearly 40-point margin in the polling average, Americans are more inclined to believe the country is currently on the wrong track than the right track. There are other reasons to believe the 45th president is peaking at the best possible time and that dimwitted California commie Kamala Harris is cratering at the worst possible time, but the stubbornness of the right-track/wrong-track polling has surely led to many sleepless nights at Harris-Walz campaign headquarters. It defies common sense for Americans to reelect the vice president from the administration responsible for so much misery. At some level, Democrats surely know this.
But if Trump’s campaign was already on the up and up, his brilliant, pitch-perfect stop to serve hamburgers and French fries last Sunday at a Bucks County, Pennsylvania, McDonald’s might have sealed the deal. The 45th president of the United States ditched his signature suit for a chef’s apron, manning the fryer and dishing out Happy Meals to drive-thru customers. Trump, a longtime McDonald’s aficionado, was affable and came across as genuinely thrilled to be interacting with the fast-food franchise’s employees and customers. The main photo of the visit that went viral, which saw Trump smiling as he waved goodbye to a drive-thru customer, has emerged as this presidential cycle’s second-most iconic image – following only Trump’s mesmerizing raised fist and bloodied face in the aftermath of his brush with death on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Once again, Trump has proven he is the people’s billionaire – someone who, as I wrote for TomKlingenstein.com earlier this year, “may hold ‘elite’ ruling class credentials, but whose hearts, minds, concerns, and general sensibilities are decidedly with the country class.” Trump, who has been an outlier among his fellow wealthy industrialists ever since his nationalist views on trade began to clash many decades ago with the free-trade absolutism of the neoliberal establishment, is the most formidable class traitor in American politics today. And at a time when Americans bewail the state of their republic and bemoan the decadence of their ruling elites, that class-traitor status increasingly looks like a ticket to victory.
Once upon a time, Democrats were the working-class party in America. Those days are long over. At some point between the Bill Clinton and Barack Obama presidencies, the Democratic Party decided to mount a full-scale war on the economic and cultural interests of the working class. Manufacturing and supply-chain resilience went out the window, as the “New Democrats” ditched the American heartland and outsourced countless jobs – and many entire industries – to our communist Chinese arch-foe in the name of “efficiency.” Elites routinely belittled biblical morality as bigoted, disparaged respect for the rule of law as a vestige of “white supremacy,” denigrated advocacy for immigration restrictions as xenophobic, and lambasted support for locking up hardened criminals as racist.
In came – or rather, descended down a gilded escalator – Trump to tell regular, salt-of-the-earth Americans that no, you actually are not that terrible. No, you are not a horrible person simply for being white (or having any other particular skin color). No, you are not an irredeemable troglodyte simply for thinking the Bible is the inerrant Word of God. No, you are not a relic of a bygone era for believing that cops do an important job, and that secure and stable national borders are necessary for a nation to, well, actually be a nation in the first place. No, you are not a crypto-fascist for flying the red, white and blue on your porch and for being proud of America’s historical legacy.
Many have observed that Trump is like a “comment section come to life.” What they mean by this is that Trump says, and does, irreverent things that others would typically shy away from doing. There is some truth to this. But it would be more accurate to say that Trump is the silver spoon-fed scion who never much cared for his presumptive social and economic peers. Trump is “outer-borough” to his core – the boy from Queens who never thought very highly of the well-heeled Manhattanites who sipped their brandy and smoked their cigars across the East River. Trump was involved with Ross Perot’s populist Reform Party and outspoken in his opposition to NAFTA at a time when virtually everyone with a seven-figure net worth was an ardent free trader.
Donald Trump, in short, has always been a class traitor. And following his large helping of French fries and Happy Meals in Pennsylvania, that class-traitor status may well win him a second term in the White House come Nov. 5. ##
Part II
The Kamala Harris (D) rally in Houston, TX was perceived by tens of thousands as featuring Beyoncé, who they expected to get a free concert out of for attending. But per reports, Beyoncé endorsed Harris, spoke in a fashion that many found hard to hear. When they didn’t get the expected concert from Beyoncé, there was booing and some left. Some in media, per ZeroHedge and other sources, blamed those boos and heckling on the attendees being “Trump supporters.” But the evidence seems to suggest what ZeroHedge observed, no, they were attendees who were “pissed off” that they thought they were getting a free concert and instead saw Beyoncé back Kamala and then got the 91-year-old Willie Nelson instead.

JUST IN: Kamala Harris’ rally in Houston, Texas descends into chaos as she fails to control the rally attendees.
Boos and yelling were heard at the rally as Harris failed to calm down the rowdy crowd.

They came for Beyoncé and this is what Harris gave them 🤣https://t.co/iVzu0NlNLs

That caused some to recall that something similar happened at this past summer’s Democratic National Convention, when “rumors” were spread that Beyoncé would perform, but didn’t.
Fans of pop star Beyoncé are annoyed that a rumour was spread early in the day that she would be a surprise guest at the finale of the DNC, with some fans accusing the Democrats of being “f***ing liars.” https://t.co/57bqvylPF1

As was arguably true of much of the Biden-Harris (D) years, an apparent bait and switch was deployed. People were told to expect A and were given Y instead.
The opportunity to punish those using the old bait and switch is upon us. To learn more on that and other issues impacting MHVille, see the linked reports that follow. And don’t miss today’s postscript. For those who haven’t seen the first item on MHLivingNews, it is a focused eye-opener.

Postscript
As was mentioned above, part of the working plan for this week is to do an update and follow up on the following.
Thousands of manufactured home employees, based on research via Indeed, appear to be unhappy with the business practices of their employers. There are good reasons for that unease.
The good news is that every vote for Trump-Vance and their down-ballot GOP (i.e.: Republican) candidate allies at the local, state, and Congressional levels offer the potential for meaningful change.
There are those who believe that if the current early voting trends hold that the Trump-Vance ticket has the potential to be historic on several levels, including the point that they may win the popular vote, not just the electoral college vote.
That said, it always comes down to ballots cast. Election integrity may not be perfect, but several steps have been taken in numbers of states to see to it that it has improved. As Trump, Bongino, Michael Whatley for the RNC and others have said, what is needed is to Swamp the Vote. Trump and Republicans need to win by at least 1 to perhaps 2 percent more to account for bogus ballots. Just days ago, indictments were handed down for fraudulent votes in OH. Trump has said that based on his victory that post-election, bogus votes will be investigated and prosecuted as needed. Kamala Harris (D) has been fading as Trump-Vance and the GOP have been peaking. When the Washington Post, and Los Angeles Times have both declined endorsing Harris, a multi-year first for both normally pro-Democratic publishers, are just one more indication that many on the left see the handwriting on the wall.
You can be a part of history in the making. Don’t let anything keep you from voting early if possible, or on election day November 5th if all else doesn’t make it possible for you. It is time to make the American Dream’s rebirth begin, starting with voting this election. See the series on the Patch as needed. Then, vote wisely. Get others in your circle to do the same. VOTE like your future depends on it. Because it does. And the last 3.5 years have proven that Kamala and those in her party are obviously not the solution. Because most Americans were better off under Trump then they have been under Democrats like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Better to be safe than sorry. ###
