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 the 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 there is a tie in the Senate vote, 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, Maybe Li Mu's influence is not enough, but in the Senate and the House of Representatives, Li Mu, plus the strength of Rockefeller, J Morgan and others, is already qualified to make his voice heard.
Sending 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 mixed meanings.
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 ways, 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 brings 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 has left people with an inherent conservative and rotten impression, if the Democrats want to change the inherent impression in people's minds, if they want to win more support, then the Democrats need to launch more fresh faces, the slogans of the Democrats have 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 a stranger to all voters, Voters are already bitter about the Republican Party's conservatism and corruption, and they are eager to see some new faces that will be different, 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 Party's monopoly on the presidential palace, which will also collapse The Republican Party reviews itself, what is the current situation of the Republican Party is blindly optimistic, arrogant, the party is full of speculators, Li Mu does 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", and it is not to the extent of "Your Excellency".
"Come on, Reem, I've always treated you as a friend, you don't have to be so vigilant with me, what were you talking to James just now, the tariff antimonopoly law or Vladivostok If James didn't give you a definite answer, can you listen to my opinion" Grover Cleveland is prepared, but it depends on who gives more benefits, Grover Cleveland will never be stingy, and you must have the qualifications to make decisions when you give benefits, if you can't enter the presidential palace, what you are talking about now is all in the air.
"Tell me about it."
Of course, Li Mu wants to know Grover Cleveland's offer, and James Garfield said it well, whether it can be done only God knows, the cunning rabbit.
"Regarding tariffs, I only emphasize one point, if the United States wants to have a 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 has indeed done his homework, but from this passage, Grover Cleveland can't say much better than James Garfield, at least better 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 Kufma Group, Carnegirim 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 the Carnegirim 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 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 boldness lies in breaking everything that is currently conformist and restoring 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 Horse Group and Carnegirim Steel that maintain a leading position in technology will definitely get faster development than they are now, and in this sense, Grover Cleveland is indeed very good, at least Grover Cleveland has ideals.
"Regarding the anti-monopoly law, I have to say Reem, 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 the enterprise 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 the Horse Company, Springfield Company, Colt, and Winchester, this does not have any impact on you, However, these enterprises compete with each other, but 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 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 continued, perhaps the situation that Grover Cleveland said was not perfect enough, but this 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 none of them have the determination to stop Li Mu, speaking of which Grover Cleveland is the first person to really understand what Li Mu wants to do, which makes 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 the bigwigs in the Republican Party attach so much importance to Li Mu, and why the Democrats want to pull Li Mu into the Democratic camp 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, now is not 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 the golden time for Grover Cleveland and Li Mu was still a long time, so they didn't have to worry
