825 is in no hurry
The political system of the United States determines that as long as James Garfield is elected president of the United States, Arthur, who is James Garfield's running mate, will serve as vice president of the United States, and at the same time, Arthur will also serve as president of the Senate, becoming the de facto first presidential heir of the United States.
Arthur as vice president and president of the Senate, it sounds very good, in fact, Arthur, the president of the Senate, does not have any real power, in the Senate vote, Arthur, the president of the Senate, basically does not play any role, only when the Senate vote is tied, the Senate president's vote is decisive, and so far, in the more than 100 years since the establishment of the Senate, this situation has never occurred, so, as long as James Garfield is the president of the United States, Arthur will not play any role.
Li Mu's confidence lies in the fact that if James Garfield is elected president and does not fulfill his promise to Li Mu, then Li Mu is now sure that he will promote the impeachment of James Garfield in the Senate, and at that time, according to the provisions of the US Constitution, Arthur will replace James Garfield as the president of the United States, and James Garfield will naturally not be able to cause any obstacles to Li Mu.
Of course, to achieve this step, Li Mu has a lot of work to do, but this is not impossible, with the support of Vladivostok, Hawaii, New York, Massachusetts, California, and Indiana and Illinois, Li Mu is already capable of doing whatever he wants, impeaching the president is only one aspect, even without the help of Time magazine and radio, Li Mu has the ability to determine the political direction of the United States to some extent, this is not a joke, among ordinary people, Perhaps Li Mu's influence is not enough, but in the Senate and the House of Representatives, Li Mu plus Rockefeller, J· The strength of P. Morgan and others is already qualified to make their voices heard.
Sent James Garfield out of the door, followed by Grover Cleveland, who was going to come to Li Mu's office as a guest, James Garfield must have noticed Grover Cleveland, and after greeting Grover Cleveland affectionately, James Garfield gave Li Mu a look with a complicated meaning.
Li Mu didn't care, but Grover Cleveland still noticed, so Grover Cleveland started the topic with this: "It seems that Mr. James has a big opinion of me. ”
"Don't worry about it, you just reminded me to come, let me keep my distance from you." Li Mu smiled dumbly, the quality of the relationship does not lie in the political position, but in who can give Li Mu more benefits, if James Garfield does not pay attention to this, then in the future, Li Mu may really be able to switch to the Democratic camp.
Li Mu doesn't care about changing his course, and it's not one or two who change his party membership in the Republican Party, Li Mu is because he has too much energy, so he will receive special attention, but Li Mu will not be constrained by James Garfield, from this point of view, Arthur has brought more trouble to Li Mu than James Garfield.
"Hehe, I don't ask you the result, whatever you do, our friendship will definitely not change, I will always remember that it was you who prompted me to enter the political arena, otherwise I would still be that muddy lawyer." Grover Cleveland is full of gratitude to Li Mu, the Democratic Party has lost the presidential race for more than ten consecutive years, which is enough to make the vast majority of Democrats pragmatic and humble, to be honest, even within the Democratic Party, do not think that Samuel can defeat James Garfield, many people of insight have pinned their hopes on a new force like Grover Cleveland.
Since the last presidential election, many Democrats have been aware of this problem, the older generation of Democrats have left people with an inherent conservative and rotten impression, if the Democratic Party wants to change the inherent impression in people's hearts, if it wants to win more support, then the Democratic Party needs to launch more fresh faces, the slogan of the Democratic Party has been replaced with "change" and "innovation" in the past two years, Grover Cleveland is the representative of these two slogans, after all, Grover Cleveland is the representative of these two slogans, after all, Grover Cleveland Cleveland is unfamiliar to all voters, who are already bitter about the conservative and corrupt Republican Party, and they are eager to see some new faces, and they are pinning their hopes on something new that these new faces may bring.
"Don't say that, the reason why you have achieved what you are now is because you have the corresponding ability, and it has nothing to do with my encouragement, whether I gave you confidence or not, you will come to this point, and I believe that now is not your limit, work hard, Lord Grover, maybe in four years, or eight years, you will always have a chance." Li Mu is still looking forward to Grover Cleveland, not because of the relationship between Li Mu and Grover Cleveland, Li Mu also hopes to break the Republican monopoly on the presidential palace, which will also collapse The Republican Party reviews itself, what is the current situation of the Republican Party? Blindly optimistic, arrogant, and full of speculators in the party, Li Mu did not like it at all.
The title "Your Excellency" is almost a special noun for senators in the United States, and Li Mu has almost reached the pinnacle of businessmen, but when many people call Li Mu, it is just a suffix for "sir", not to the extent of "Your Excellency", although Li Mu calls Grover Cleveland not so polite, but everyone carries the sedan chair, and praises Grover Cleveland, and will not belittle Li Mu.
"Come on, Ream, I've always treated you as a friend, you don't have to be so wary with me, what were you talking to James just now? Tariff? Anti-Monopoly Law? Or Vladivostok? If James doesn't give you a definitive answer, can you hear from me? "Grover Cleveland is prepared, but it depends on who gives more benefits, Grover Cleveland will never be stingy, and he must have the qualifications to make decisions when he gives benefits.
"Tell me about it." Of course, Li Mu wants to know Grover Cleveland's offer, James Garfield said it well, whether it can be done only God knows, cunning rabbit three holes.
"Regarding tariffs, I only emphasize one point, if the United States wants to have stronger competitiveness in the world, it must protect and help the development of local enterprises, only if enterprises have stronger competitiveness, the United States will be stronger, so we can't blindly maintain high tariffs, enterprises must go abroad, to Africa, to Asia, to Europe to compete for a larger market, so as to get better development-" Grover Cleveland did do his homework, but from this passage, Grover Cleveland dare not say better than JamesGarfield is much stronger, at least stronger than Hayes.
Also during the last economic crisis, then-US President Ulysses Grant raised US import tariffs to more than 150 percent in order to protect American companies, which was really effective, including the Kufco, Carnegie-Riem Steel, and even the Vanderbilt family at the time.
By now, the impact of the economic crisis in 1876 has basically disappeared, the economy has begun to recover, the market has gradually become active, the Vanderbilt family has died of their own death, similar to the Horse Group and Carnegie Riem Steel Company have been full-fledged and have stronger strength, but the United States has not lowered tariffs and is in line with Europe, which makes European countries very annoyed, including Britain, France, Germany, and other countries are actually implementing similar high tariffs as the United States to protect local industries, which seems to be beyond reproach. But it has hindered the circulation of the economy and the integration of the market, Li Mu is also aware of this problem, but he is unable to break the situation, who can give up vested interests?
Even Li Mu can't.
But it's clear that Grover Cleveland can, and Grover Cleveland's ambition is to break everything that is currently conformist and restore tariffs to normal levels, which may have a certain impact on American companies in the short term, but in the long run, companies like the Stallion Group and Carnegie Rim Steel that maintain a leading position in technology will definitely get faster development than now, and in this sense, Grover Cleveland is really good, at least Grover Cleveland has ideals.
"——About the "Anti-Monopoly Law", I have to say Ream, in fact, I support the passage of the "Anti-Monopoly Law", you should have realized that in an industry, it is not as good as multiple companies competing with each other, which may have an impact on the profits of enterprises in the short term, but in the long run, this will be more conducive to the development of the industry, in fact, Reem you don't have to worry, just like the current Horse Arms Company has been divided into Horse Company, Springfield Company, Colt, and Winchester, This doesn't have any effect on you, but these companies compete with each other, but it will promote the progress of military technology, as long as the current situation is maintained, it will not be long before the US military industry can defeat those old military industrial enterprises in Europe, whether it is the Horse Factory or the Springfield Factory, or Colt and Winchester, they are all subordinate enterprises of the Horse Arms Company, right? Grover Cleveland went on to state that perhaps the situation Grover Cleveland was not perfect enough, but it was already the best option under the existing conditions.
Of course, Li Mu agrees with Grover Cleveland's statement, otherwise Li Mu would not have gone to great lengths to split the horse weapons company, many people actually don't understand Li Mu's behavior, such as Henry, and Zhang Leye, but they didn't stop Li Mu's determination, speaking of which Grover Cleveland was the first person to really understand what Li Mu wanted to do, which made Li Mu feel very happy.
"Finally, Vladivostok, I don't know what Mr. James's definition of Vladivostok is, I just say that I understand it myself, if before we were separated from the Russians by the white-collar strait, then now we have a border with the Russians, which will lead to more problems, if we want to better consolidate Vladivostok and develop Vladivostok, then we will inevitably rely on Riem your influence in the Far East, to be honest, not only I think so, and the Irish, Germans, And compared to Africans, I would prefer that the United States can attract more Chinese immigrants, not because of your flattery, but because of the ability that Chinese immigrants are showing now, Springfield Institute of Technology, as long as people who pay attention to this school, will notice the potential of Chinese Americans, and I even think that if possible, the United States should bring Springfield Institute of Technology under the management of the U.S. Department of Education, and it won't be many years before Springfield Institute of Technology will shock everyone. "Grover Cleveland is really talking about Li Mu's heart this time, compared with Vladivostok and Horse Arms, Li Mu has more expectations for Springfield Institute of Technology, and now Springfield Institute of Technology has not achieved her due status, but it doesn't matter, there will always be people who notice the potential of Springfield Institute of Technology, just like Grover Cleveland.
"I've already regretted Grover now, you really should have participated in this presidential election, and I will definitely vote for you." Li Mu is not eligible to run for president, but Li Mu has the right to vote, which is very important, because this is not just a matter of one vote, Li Mu can influence many people, and this is where Li Mu's value lies.
Li Mu's value is here, why do the bigwigs in the Republican Party attach so much importance to Li Mu? Why do Democrats want to pull Li Mu into the Democratic camp? It is because of Li Mu's influence =.
In the past, American politicians did not attach importance to Chinese Americans, because Chinese Americans were useless in politics, and they did not even vote for the most basic votes, so it is no wonder that American politicians targeted Chinese Americans, but now it is different, because of the emergence of Li Mu, Chinese Americans in the United States are very enthusiastic about politics, but the vast majority of Chinese Americans are qualified to vote for their "sacred vote", so Li Mu's attention is also rising.
"It's not possible this time, but I've decided to run for the next presidency, but it's only four years later, I'm still young, and you're young Reem, and we all have time." Grover Cleveland is not in a hurry, it is not yet the time for Grover Cleveland to perform on stage, and in four years, Grover Cleveland will definitely shock everyone.
Really young, Grover Cleveland was born in 1837, and he was only 47 years old four years later, Li Mu was less than thirty years old four years later, and there was still a long time for Grover Cleveland and Li Mu to have a golden time, so they didn't have to worry.
