The political system of the United States determines that as long as James Garfield is elected President of the United States, Arthur, as James Garfield's running mate, will serve as the vice president of the United States. At the same time, Arthur will also serve as the speaker of the Senate and become the de facto first heir to the president of the United States. As long as James Garfield encounters an unexpected accident during his term, is impeached, or James Garfield resigns voluntarily, Arthur will naturally succeed the US president.

As vice president and president of the Senate, it sounds very good. In fact, Arthur, the Senate Speaker, has no real power. When the Senate votes, Arthur, the Senate Speaker, basically does not play any role. Only when the Senate votes are tied, the Senate Speaker's vote is decisive. So far, this situation has never happened in more than a hundred years since the Senate was established. Therefore, as long as James Garfield serves as the President of the United States, Arthur will not play any role.

Li Mu's confidence lies in that if James Garfield fails to fulfill his promise to Li Mu after being elected president, then Li Mu will be sure to promote the Senate's impeachment of James Garfield. By then, according to the provisions of the US Constitution, Arthur will replace James Garfield as the US president, and James Garfield will naturally not cause any obstacles to Li Mu.

Of course, Li Mu still has a lot of work to do to achieve this step, but this is no longer impossible. With the support of Vladivostok, Hawaii, New York, Massachusetts, California, as well as Indiana and Illinois, Li Mu is already able to do whatever he wants. Impulsing the president is only one aspect. Even without the help of Time and broadcast, Li Mu is also able 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 House of Representatives, Li Mu and the strength of Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan and others are already qualified to make their own voices.

Grover Cleveland was the one who sent James Garfield out and was visiting Li Mu's office. James Garfield must have noticed Grover Cleveland. After saying hello to Grover Cleveland intimately, James Garfield gave Li Mu a look of complex meaning.

Li Mu didn't care, but Grover Cleveland still noticed it, so Grover Cleveland started the topic with this: "It seems that Mr. James has a lot of opinions about me."

"Stop worrying, I just reminded me to keep my distance from you." Li Mu laughed silently. The good or bad relationship is not about political stance, but about 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 the course. There are not one or two people who change their party members within the Republican Party. Li Mu is particularly concerned because of his energy. However, Li Mu will not be restricted by James Garfield. From this perspective, Arthur has caused more trouble to Li Mu than James Garfield.

"Haha, I don't ask you the result. No matter how you do, our friendship will definitely not change. I will always remember that it was you who prompted me to enter politics, otherwise I would still be the confused lawyer." Grover Cleveland was grateful to Li Mu. The Democratic Party has failed in the presidential election for more than ten years, which is enough to make the vast majority of Democrats pragmatic and humble. To be honest, even within the Democratic Party, they do not think that Samuel can defeat James Garfield. Many people with insight have placed their hopes on new forces like Grover Cleveland.

Since the last presidential campaign, many Democrats have realized this problem. The older generation of Democrats have left people with an inherent conservative and corrupt impression. If the Democrats want to change the inherent impression in people's hearts and want to win more support, the Democrats need to launch more fresh faces. In the past two years, the Democratic slogan has been replaced by "change" and "innovation". Grover Cleveland is the representative of these two slogans. After all, Grover Cleveland is unfamiliar to all voters. Voters are actually heartbroken by the conservatism and corruption of the Republican Party. They really want to see some different new faces and pin their hopes on some new things that these new faces may bring.

"Don't say that, the reason you have achieved your current achievements is because you already have the corresponding ability and has nothing to do with my encouragement. Regardless of whether I have given you confidence or not, you will reach this point now. And I believe that it is not your limit now. Work hard, Your Excellency Grover. Maybe four years later, or eight years later, you will always have a chance." Li Mu is still looking forward to Grover Cleveland. It is not because of the relationship between Li Mu and Grover Cleveland. Li Mu also hopes to break the situation where the Republican Party monopolizes the Presidential Palace, which will also go bankrupt. The Republican Party reviews itself. What is the current situation of the Republican Party? Blindly optimistic, arrogant, and the party is full of speculators, and Li Mu doesn't like it at all.

The title "Your Excellency" is almost a special noun for senators in the United States. Li Mu has almost reached the peak of businessmen. However, when many people call Li Mu, they are just a suffix of "Sir", and they cannot reach the level of "Your Excellency". Although Li Mu doesn't have to be so polite to call Grover Cleveland, everyone is holding the flower sedan chair. If Grover Cleveland is high, they will not belittle Li Mu.

"Ream, I always treat you as a friend. You don't have to be so cautious when you are with me. What were you talking about to James just now? Tariffs? Antitrust Act? Or Vladivostok? If James doesn't give you a definite answer, can you listen to my opinion?" Grover Cleveland came prepared, but it depends on who gave many benefits. Grover Cleveland never stingy, and he must be qualified to make decisions for the benefits. If he cannot enter the Presidential Palace, what he is talking about now is a castle in the air.

"Let me tell me." Li Mu certainly wanted to know the offer from Grover Cleveland. James Garfield said it well. Can only God know that the cunning rabbit has three holes?

"As for tariffs, I only emphasize one thing: if the United States wants to have stronger competitiveness in the world, it must protect and help the development of local enterprises. Only when the company has stronger competitiveness can America be stronger. Therefore, we cannot blindly maintain high tariffs. Enterprises must go abroad, go to Africa, Asia, and Europe to compete for a larger market, so that they can achieve better development-" Grover Cleveland did do enough homework, but from this passage, Grover Cleveland dare not say that they are much better than James Garfield, at least better than Hayes.

It was during the last economic crisis that Ulysses Grant, then-US President, raised the import tariffs of the United States to more than 150% in order to protect local American companies. This was indeed very effective, including the Junma Group, Carnegie Reim Steel Company, and even the Vanderbilt family at that time, benefited a lot from it.

By now, the impact of the economic crisis in 1876 has basically disappeared, the economy has begun to recover, and the market is gradually active. Not to mention the Vanderbilt family itself is willing to die. Similar to Junma Group and Carnegie Reim Steel Company are already full of strength and have stronger strength. The United States has not lowered tariffs and is in line with Europe, which makes European countries very annoyed. Countries including Britain, France and Germany are actually implementing high tariffs similar to those of the United States to protect local industries. This practice seems unreproachable, but has hindered the integration of economic circulation and the market. Li Mu also realized this problem, but was unable to break the deadlock. Who can give up his vested interests?

Even Li Mu can't.

But it is obvious that Grover Cleveland can do it. Grover Cleveland's courage lies in breaking everything that is currently sticking to the rules and returning tariffs to normal levels. This may have a certain impact on American companies in a short period of time. But in the long run, companies like Junma Group and Carnegie Reim Steel, which remain technically leading will definitely develop faster than they are now. In this sense, Grover Cleveland is indeed very good, at least Grover Cleveland has ideals.

"—About the Antitrust Law, I have to say Reim. Actually, I support the passage of the Antitrust Law. You should have realized that being the only one in an industry is not as competitive as multiple companies. This may have an impact on the profits of the company in a short period of time, but in the long run, it will be more conducive to the development of the industry. In fact, Reim, you don't have to worry, just like the current Junma Weapons Company has been divided into Junma Company, Springfield Company, Colt, and Winchester, this does not have anything to do to you.

Influence, but these companies compete with each other, it will promote the progress of military technology. As long as the current situation is maintained, it will not take long for the US military industry to defeat those old European military enterprises. Whether it is Junma Factory or Springfield Factory, or Colt and Winchester, they are all subordinate companies of Junma Weapons, aren’t they?” Grover Cleveland continued to state that perhaps what Grover Cleveland said is not perfect enough, but this is already the best choice under the current conditions.

Of course, Li Mu agreed with Grover Cleveland's statement, otherwise Li Mu would not have tried his best to split the Junma Weapons Company. Many people actually did not understand Li Mu's behavior, such as Henry and Zhang Leye, but they did not have the determination to stop Li Mu. Speaking of which, Grover Cleveland was the first person to truly understand what Li Mu wanted to do, which made Li Mu feel very happy.

"Finally it is Vladivostok. I don't know what Mr. James' definition of Vladivostok is. I only say I understand it myself. If we were separated from the Russians in the past, then now we are bordering 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 Reim's influence in the Far East. To be honest, it is not just me who thinks so. Compared with Irish, Germans, and Africans, I hope the United States can attract more Chinese immigrants. This is not flattery for you, but because of the ability of Chinese immigrants now. Spring

Field Institute of Technology, as long as people pay attention to this school, they will notice the potential of Chinese. I even think that if possible, the United States should include Springfield Institute of Technology in the management of the US Department of Education. In a short time, Springfield Institute of Technology will shock everyone." Grover Cleveland really talked about Li Mu's heart this time. Compared with Vladivostok and Junma Weapons, Li Mu has more expectations for Springfield Institute of Technology. Now Springfield Institute of Technology has not yet achieved the status she deserves, but it doesn't matter. There will always be people who notice the potential of Springfield Institute of Technology, just like Grover Cleveland.

"I regret Grover now. You really should participate in this presidential election. I will definitely vote for you." Li Mu is not qualified to run for president, but Li Mu has the right to vote, which is very important, because this is not just a matter of votes. Li Mu can influence many people, and this is the value of Li Mu.

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 to the Democratic camp? It is because of Li Mu’s influence =.

A fact that cannot be ignored is that Li Mu can almost affect the choice of all Chinese. In the past, American politicians did not value Chinese because Chinese were useless in politics. They did not even vote for the most basic votes. This is no wonder that American politicians target Chinese. Now it is different. Because of Li Mu's appearance, American Chinese are very enthusiastic about politics, but most Chinese are qualified to vote for their "sacred vote". Therefore, Li Mu's attention is also rising.

"This time is impossible, but I have decided to participate in the next presidential election, but it's only four years later. I'm still very young, Reim, you're very young, we all have time." Grover Cleveland is not in a hurry. It's not the time for Grover Cleveland to perform on stage. After four years, Grover Cleveland will surely shock everyone.
