Well this is fun, the #EU has slapped #tariffs on #EVs made in #china the Chinese will retaliate, meanwhile #Russia has halted trading in the dollar & euro making the most traded foreign currency the yuan
Yeah this is going great.
The best part is our #media sucks so bad most people have no damn idea what’s going on or why

The problem with being reactive is you are always on the back foot while your opponent is punching you.
The U.S. has been hemming and hawing about funding the defense of #Ukraine while #putin slaughters people and churns #russia into a militaristic state.
Then suddenly #iran backed forces start the current #hamas #israel conflict with attacks spreading to #american targets and throwing the u.s. into more chaos.
Leading isn’t reactive, we have a lack of leadership

There is a lot of “ignore the polls” stuff out there from democrats and Dem leaning pundits.
Don’t, ignore the damn polls. Don’t blindly follow them either, polls can fool people, different polling groups have bias, national polls don’t mean as much as swing state polls etc.
That being said ignoring data is bizarre coming from people who supposedly pride themselves on being evidence based.
The evidence says we are in damn trouble, and this is not a lock for the Dems & Biden

Also the war in Iraq cost (as a low estimate) 2 trillion dollars.
