Did Nostradamus try to warn us about Donald Trump as the “false trumpet”?

By Milky Way Maid

 
Recently I obtained a series of books written by Dolores Cannon, a regression hypnotist who authored several books based on her research. This particular series was about the work she did in contacting Nostradamus to ask him to clarify his famous Centuries, books of quatrains written in Old French that predicted a host of events from his time into the far future.
I am not a newbie to the Nostradamus material, having read a couple of other books whose authors took a stab at interpreting the poems. However, you could call me startled when Volume 1 of the series (printed in 1989) seemed to forecast the advent of a Donald Trump type.

Century I-40 says:
The false trumpet concealing madness will cause Byzantium to change its laws.
From Egypt there will go forth a man who wants the edict withdrawn, changing money and standards.

According to Ms. Cannon's interpretation as channeled from Nostradamus, this refers to powerful leaders who are both religious and political. . . He says that “the false trumpet refers to fundamentalist-type religious men who distort the word of God and use for their own ends. He says that several of these men are striving for political power and they are banding together to help as many of them as possible to attain key posts in the government. A lot of these posts are not necessarily splashy or public. . . .”

The part about changing money refers to new laws in foreign countries that make it harder for Americans to change money when traveling abroad. To quote: “He says these men attaining political power will have repercussions all over the world. It will cause many countries in (eastern Europe and western Asia and the Middle East) the whole area there; leaders in this part of the world will become very alarmed by the development of things. They will start changing their laws in reaction to this, making it more difficult for Americans to travel in that part of the world. Some laws in particular that will be changed will be those having to do with the conversion of American money into other currencies and with trading with the United States. It will have negative repercussions.”

A second quatrain also appears to describe Donald Trump. Century V-75:
He will rise high over his wealth, more to the right, he will remain seated on the square stone;
towards the south placed at the window, a crooked staff in his hand, his mouth sealed.


Ms. Cannon wrote: “He says that this refers to a man in the United States. A man who is very wealthy . . . He says that this man will be well known and famous because of his wealth, but his true mission in life will be secret for this man will be a fanatic of sorts. He will involved with such organizations as the American Nazi Party and the Ku Klux Klan. That's why he put in the phrase, “the crooked staff,” to represent the burning crosses of the Ku Klux Klan and the swastika of the Nazi Party. This man's sole ambition in life is towards the overthrow of the American government as it is presently constituted in the twentieth century. He says this man naturally enough will also be involved in politics.”

His mouth sealed” means that he will act in secret. I am going to step in and say that the reference to rising high refers to the tall towers he has built all over the country; it seems reasonable to also infer that “towards the south” could refer to moving to Washington D.C., which is south of his native New York City. 
 
However, Cannon writes that the phrase “towards the south” means that the open activities he indulges in “and the mayhem he likes to cause” is aimed at the southern part of the country “where such mayhem has been somewhat traditional,” as she puts it. She's being very oblique, shall we say, about referring to the continuing culture of glorifying the slave-owning South, suppressing the black vote, and in general keeping black people in a state of poverty. 
 
Anyway, from our experience to date of Donald Trump in the White House, it seems that the Trumpet is really mere “trumpery” --- which the dictionary defines as 1- Showy but worthless finery; 2- Nonsense, rubbish; and 3- Deception, trickery, or fraud.
Nuff said.
