From banker to books – Jamaica Observer

COURTNEY Lodge is now a business transformation consultant, personal mastery life coach, motivational speaker, trainer, entrepreneur, author, banker, real estate developer and futurist.

Kamala’s game plan it’s a question of the future. As hostile foreign powers pray for “the death of the United States” and civil war after the upcoming 2024 presidential elections, Lodge, a Jamaican political strategist and political futurist, offers a stunning and breathtaking strategy. He suggests that if Kamala Harris wins the presidency, she might consider pardoning Donald Trump of his numerous criminal convictions. This surprising proposal might seem more suited to a political thriller than the current political landscape of the United States, but it stood out as a reasoned strategy aimed at strengthening national and global peace.

In his thought-provoking book, Kamala’s Plan: The Impact on World Peace When President Kamala Harris Pardons Donald TrumpLodge explains how such a controversial act could serve as a bridge to healing a divided nation, potentially producing waves of stability that would extend far beyond America’s borders, including as far as Jamaica.

Lodge, revered for his insight as a strategist and futurist, tackles the crucial crossroads facing the United States as the 2024 elections approach. He draws deeply on his experience as former CEO of ‘a billion dollar confederation of Caribbean credit unions, former superintendent of police who also worked with the German equivalent of the “FBI” in Germany, and uses his understanding of economics, transnational crime organized, and the political dynamic to develop its roadmap for a more peaceful world.

The specter of political chaos looms, particularly with hostile international actors ready to exploit divisions. Lodge’s work resonates more than ever, especially as Kamala Harris – who has Jamaican roots – could rise to the presidency, influencing the future of not only the United States, but also countries with close ties to it , like Jamaica.

At the heart of Lodge’s narrative is a call for empathy and forgiveness in the face of impending crisis. It urgently highlights the need to recognize external and internal forces capitalizing on American discord as the country marks the 250th anniversary of its War of Independence in 2025.

Yet rather than sinking into despair, Lodge quickly turns to a sense of hope, suggesting that Harris’ presidency, especially with a carefully crafted game plan, could restore trust and unity within the states -United. This renaissance could serve as a powerful example for nations around the world struggling for harmony amid their tumultuous societal landscapes.

In Kamala’s game planLodge presents several crucial strategies and policy proposals designed to promote both domestic and global stability. Among these plans are diverse but interconnected suggestions, all based on a vision of cooperative governance and sustainable development.

One of the most notable proposals, ironically for a first world country like the United States, includes ambitious climate-resilient “concrete and steel” housing initiatives, particularly for disaster-prone areas that are frequently threatened by extreme conditions such as hurricanes, tornadoes and disasters. forest fires. This is where the United States could learn from the example of islands like Jamaica, which have long moved toward more sustainable building codes. Instead of spending billions of taxpayer money each year to rebuild destroyed “paper houses,” Lodge suggests building concrete and steel homes that would become the foundation of generational wealth, especially for struggling families .

This is the same Courtney Lodge, former CEO of GSB Credit Union, who transformed Jamaica’s mortgage market when he and his team launched a 9.58 percent mortgage – to tie the world record Usain Bolt’s 9.58-second 100-meter dash – in a market where mortgages were frozen. from 14 to 28 percent for decades. Almost single-handedly, he pushed the big banks to cut rates and brought down rates across Jamaica, while the construction sector was booming with new housing being built, materials being sold construction and the reduction of unemployment.

For the United States, Lodge also emphasizes the creation of a bipartisan council aimed at bridging political divisions, thereby fostering mutual respect between different political ideologies. This suggestion, which applies to Jamaica, is for President Harris to convene a council made up of all living former presidents – Biden, Obama, Bush, Clinton and, yes, even Donald Trump. This innovation could, through vigorous debate and inclusion, foster policies that would benefit all of America, not just Democratic, Republican, or independent America.

The introduction of an innovative freedom visa aims to reconcile the complexities of humanitarian issues with effective immigration and foreign policies. Lodge describes a framework that includes strategies such as redistributing the world’s workforce to help rebuild war-torn countries like Ukraine, Israel, and Palestine. The Green Fracking Technology Strategy emphasizes the importance of inclusiveness and sustainability in economic recovery and growth. The extension of the Trump-era Abraham Accords, in which Israel and other West Asian and Middle Eastern countries would form a deeper alliance, could bring lasting peace to the region, with a direct impact on global stability.

Perhaps most controversial is that Lodge is proposing a preemptive pardon for Donald Trump. He says such a move could quell civil unrest and demonstrate unprecedented political courage during a busy election cycle. While this idea may arouse skepticism, it underscores Lodge’s broader philosophy: leadership must sometimes forgo the pursuit of punishment in favor of healing and regeneration.

The shine of Kamala’s game plan lies in his blend of practicality and moral commitment to governance. Lodge does not shy away from the complexities and potential pitfalls of such strategies; instead, he engages head-on with them, presenting a vision that elevates the discourse and forces us to reflect on our collective responsibilities. The book takes an in-depth look at how these strategies and policies could be financed and implemented.

As Jamaica closely monitors American political dynamics, Lodge’s work emerges not only as a commentary on American affairs, but as an essential narrative for all nations seeking stability in an increasingly fragmented world. His words advocate introspection and action at all levels of governance, reviving the belief that the pursuit of peace is always worth it.

In these difficult times, Kamala’s game plan invites readers to consider new possibilities, emphasizing that even in a divided world, where hope is often hard to find, there is potential for a better future, grounded in responsibility, compassion, and the courage to change.

Right here in Jamaica, Lodge suggests that we too could literally take a page or two out of Lodge’s book. Many of the strategies and policy proposals mentioned would be very useful to us.
