Steemit Vlog - Early Morning Musings (Oprah Winfrey, Politics and Crypto)

in #dtube7 years ago


Another quick vlog that I wanted to put together on my perspective of the day. I feel what we are witnessing is the U.S losing its place as a superpower in the world. I feel like an experiment is being played out on our perception.



Politics

When it comes to Trump I don't even think he wanted the job. He wanted to prove a point and now the power at be are using him to see how far they can take things. He may or may not know this but I hope he does. That would at least explain his behavior.

If it but if it is true that he locks himself in a room, eat cheeseburgers and watches 3-4 TV's at a time then he really is being programmed and he doesn't even know it. At a basic level he is looking for love/acknowledgement and he is not getting it from anywhere.

Crypto

This is going to be a really emotional year for a lot of people getting into crypto. Some will make out big while other will lose. You have to remember that for every trade there is another person on the other side of that trade. The markets were down yesterday but they seem to have picked up a little bit.



Manage your fear and greed. The markets can inflate or crush a person's ego. Just be responsible out there while getting into this wild west market. Be safe and thanks for watching

I loss a lot in crypto in these day. Hope it will be end and start to earn very soon

Hi nice. meet. you

Great video!

I am loving the momentum you are getting right now. Big UPS!!!

So much momentum, flying through space, like pigs in space! Remember that show? From the muppets?

Pigs In Space !!!

Lol... I am going to have to brush up on my muppets, it has been a while.

Oh man, that was definitely one of the best parts of the muppets. And hey man, keep it real OK?

@allcapsonezero what are muppets?

They are a a bunch of puppets created by Jim Henson... there used to be a "Muppet Show" back in the 1980's that I watched when I was young... the have movies... Kermit the Frog is the most famous muppet.

The Rainbow Connection was my wedding song. My wife & thought it was hilarious. Our parents couldn't believe it.

How did this conversation get here... this is incredible! Good post @alao

Just Change your name legally to "None Of The Above " And get your name put on the ballot ... run no campaign say nothing ... I am sure most people would tick that check box... lol...

President "None of the Above" would likely be the most unanimously voted for President

😂😂😂 I might try that!!!

Illuminatti Oprah

Well said man!

This is the first post of yours I've found, and I immediately relate to your perspective—I've had such similar thoughts.

"I turned on the news today. Big mistake." lol! Yep. That's how I feel about it, too. Then you asked, "Why do we need billionaires to run our country?" EXACTLY!

The vision of America was to have a government run for the people by the people. Though I think Oprah would do a good job if she were in power (because she does actually care about other people), but I'd be surprised if she wanted to take on the weight of that role. And, yes, I'd LOVE to have a black woman as the next president, though I'm not sure if Oprah is the right woman for it.

"We have to take the system we're living in and change it," you said. Yes. I think crypto is changing A LOT, and it's exciting. You said Steemit is a "working democracy experiment," and I agree. I'm brand new here, and stoked to be a part of this community that IS making a difference.

You had so many great thoughts in this vlog. I've followed you and am looking forward to more!

Thank you and I'm really floored right now. I'm telling you I don't normally get these big payouts!!!

Well, I hope you keep getting the big payouts. You deserve them for your thoughtful honesty. I love seeing Steemit reward everyday people for being real. :)

Thank ya I appreciate it. I'm not exactly sure how long this will last but I'm going to make the best of it.

thank yuo alao

You deserve them for your song. That could be the steemit and steem theme song although the bitcoiners might try and steal it. lol

😂😂😂

If you were using an image or images it didn't work for me. FYI

Oprah doesn't intend running for president. She mentioned that she doesn't have the strength flr that. She also stated that her strength lies in bringing people together and supporting whoever has potentials.

I too love Oprah as an icon and I'm sure she would be a compassionate and wise leader as she has already proven to be but I'm pretty much done with dems and never was on board with repubs so there's that...

The Trump situation is seriously funny. It does really seem like he just wanted to prove a point and now he has no real motives to do anything. Well, we will see how it plays out.
I think it's always important to do your research before investing into a crypto. You must learn about the potential it has to rise. We can't always win trades, but we can always HODL and wait until the prices go back up when they drop:) It's the perfect time to get into new cryptos when markets go down like yesterday.

As me are moving more into a digital age it does feel pretty sure that in the long term the HODL will work out the best. With research it sort of feels too like a waste since everything is so new that nobody really has any clue how stuff will go. But it's highly engaging and fun!I

I am agree with you brother

Yeah there's a point there

Great take Alao! Trump already said he didn’t expect to win. He was doing it to prove a point. This was a joke from the beginning.

As far as the cryptos, yes, people do your research. Things can change in a heartbeat.

“All smiles turn to frowns”

So happy for you @alao ! You have had so many peoples backs and give non stop on Steemit & put a lot in to it. It's only inevitable my friend! I don't know how I feel about Oprah, I love her too but who knows what it would be like. I'm having trouble loading the rest of the video but the quality looks great! And i'm glad that's not smoke coming out of your mouth lol, it looks freezing!

Thanks I'm still in shock to be honest. After the this latest vlog I figured I would take a break and get grounded for a second. This has really inspired me to make some big moves this year. I already have a lot going in crypto wise but I feel steemit is going to be a big part of my life in 2018.

Mickey Mouse for president all the way!!! Seriously though, Oprah is better than Trump but she’s not president material. I don’t think she’ll run.

I agree she is not, however, anyone and everyone seems to be the getting the presidency these days... lol

@alao for president. He can run his campaign funded by steemit upvotes. 🔼

Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown. Its not so easy being the president of any nation. In as much as you wanna do things that seem right to you but, for political reasons you still have to listen to some of your adviser. And remember in every cabinet there's always the good, bad and ugly. We experience that everywhere, even here in Nigeria. Well done @alao

So real. Dude when they called the election for him and he didn't come out to speak for 45 minutes, I KNEW that he was in shock. I saw in my mind's eye (like a movie) the shock he and his family was experiencing - the shock on their faces. And then the mad scramble to help him say something presidential for his acceptance speech. I swear they almost went out and said, "Nah, it's okay we will concede to the real politician" but then greed and how they could milk this came to the forefront.

@alao you are killing it with these vlog posts lately. Congrats man! Steem to the moon!

I know...I'm just as shocked as everyone else. I really wasn't expecting it to get this much payout today...

Consistency is always rewarded eventually.

Great video. We do get more info in a day, but on the flip side, we are less plugged in spiritually, I believe. Hoping to keep my energies moving up. Blessings on your success. Following.

Thank you kindly 😁

I am really impressed with this post! You my friend make sense in this world where media (and those who own it) are trying to destroy true freedom and unity. The political system is a joke they are all Tyrants! Keep up the good work!

nice post

I wish next president of USA is also from Business community.

Interesting thoughts and advice. The one who is more informed, profits. Perhaps it begins with self-confidence - without which, we tend to follow instead of reach for a higher level of understanding. Being informed, makes the difference between being played or playing the situation to our own advantage.

Early morning rumors.

Oprah is pretty cool, but damn... actually i haven't really thought about it, i guess when you think about who the other slime bucket alternatives will be, maybe Oprah is a decent choice. I don't really even know what she beleives in i guess

Ok so your goal in life is to "stay a superpower" in the world? We have people starving and living in tents since Bill, Bush, Obama were presidents. What did they do to the poor? Nothing to help them out. The healthcare reform only helped the insurance companies not the citizens.

Not my goal. I think that having super powers basically creates a in balance in the world. President's are puppets either directly or indirectly.

A president represent the legitimacy of a country.
The more stupid the president the weaker the nation.
If you want to understand whats going on in this world, think like a globalist.

a great example of a team leader and their team, the stronger the leader, the more powerful their team would be ....

@alao I hope you have a blessed 2018! Followed and upvoted, I couldn't agree more about everyone who gains there comes an expense of someone else. The real question is which fate do we hold? The best thing the newer traders can do this year is to educate themselves and put themselves in the best position they can. Happy Trading! -Zach

I totally agree with your crypto section.people have to understand there is no market will be same for long time .
Bull & bears are the important side of trading .
We have to remember this.

Trump just wanted to win so he can get a larger racist following, and he achieved that.

I think he just wanted to write a book or get another TV show. I could be wrong.

Well said brother, I also think 2018 will be a turbulent year.

excelent vlog

Trump is a crazy man ,,, Upvoted @alao

Yea he's a sad puppy.

nice and very informative post bro @alao . Politics is really affecting on crypto. In our country also it is going to be banned. I wonder why it needed to be banned? I do not know what is going to be happened in near future? i just hope everything goes well.

What country are you in?

good post

Cryptocurrencies are so great, but a bit scary at the same time. You must always be up to date and well informed to play along. Greetings to all. : )

wow you write a great post... i impressed to see it...keep it up brother...

He's thinking of better days

Cant agree more !!!

I RESPECT your point of view and see the logic. New subscriber.

Amazing post i like this.

Trump make us dollar value down! USA economy down even USA situation worse !

Trump wants to sleep ! hahahah :D

This was a great video, couldnt agree more.

Do we really know what is going on tho'? This $hi.. is just crazy.

Nope we don't

2018 is gonna be a long year. Too long if you ask me.

Hey alao. Is there any chance that despite having 331 votes here, that you are interested in potentially trying a conversational vlog and seeing what kind of conversational chemistry we have. I saw you resteemed my friends post, and he was over last night doing a warm up for our local vlogs. [@mrviquez] Funny stuff. I know most people don't watch tons of video here, but cool sh_t is coming together. Let me know if you ever want to chat. Alx

Amazing post ....U r rock@alao

politics is like gambling, thats why i hardly read things about politics, cos today, mr A will be on the side of mr C, fighting for mr C against mr D, TOMORROW the same mr C will turn to back mr D. ( confused people).

Have a nice day everyone !

Long live steemit comunity....
Go to the Moon!
