#18, Watergate, trump

History often provides us with stunning parallels to current events that involve numerical phenomenon – clusters of numbers.

In early May 2017, Trump had been in office for about five months and the parallels between his administration’s Russia scandals and those of the Nixon administration and Watergate already were becoming more apparent. One focal point was the number 18.

In Watergate, an 18-minute gap in a recording resulted in Nixon’s impeachment and resignation. In the Russian investigation with this administration, it took Trump 18 days to fire National Security Advisor Michael Flynn after he was warned by acting Attorney General Sally Yates that Flynn might be easily blackmailed by the Russians.

On May 18 of last year, we learned from Reuters and the New York Times that there were at least 18 undisclosed contacts between members of the Trump administration and the Russians. That adds up to four clusters of the #18.

The first two instances of 18 solidified the tie to Nixon and Watergate. I felt it underscored what many people already suspected – that a cover-up was involved about Russia’s interference in our 2016 election. I also figured there would be other instances of 18 – and there were, revealed on May 18, 2017. With this second set of 18s, I felt the cluster might just be getting started, warming up. So I posed a couple of questions to the quantum synchro gods who orchestrate this stuff:

Will at least 18 people in the Trump administration be indicted for their collusion with the Russians? (In Watergate, the casualties were two resignations -prez and VP – and 48 others who were indicted and jailed.)

Does 18 refer, perhaps, to a day of a month when the full truth is known?

Will Trump continue as president for another 18 days, weeks, or months?

Let’s say the 18 phenomenon is referring to Trump’s presidency lasting another 18 months from May 2017, when this number cluster came to our attention. That would put his end date at November 2018, the mid-term elections.

If the Democrats sweep the house, then it’s likely the mid-term elections will spell the end of his presidency through impeachment, indictment, or implosion, or all three. Stay tuned!
