      @@ttacking_you Uncle T's top priority is to lower inflation and the price of goods. He made it clear at his rallies.During the last federal election on Nov. 3, 2020, food inflation was running at just 3.9% annually. Fast forward to March 2024, and the latest data shows food prices have risen a whopping 25.8% since then. To put that in perspective, a basket of groceries that cost $100 in November 2020 would now set you back $125.80. That’s an increase of nearly $26 for the exact same food items.
      The biggest price hikes have been for specific grocery categories like eggs, dairy products, cereals and baked goods. But price rises have impacted all food groups across the board.

      Exactly. So that's why you look who the bookmakers have their money on. And they all have it on Uncle Trump. He's the odds on favourite, at 8/11, which have shortened from 4/6. This means that the bookies are more confident he will win. The betting favorite has lost only twice since 1866, according to the Conversation, a nonprofit news organization. The only other time bettors failed to predict the winner: 1948, when Democrat Harry Truman beat 8-to-1 odds to defeat Republican Thomas Dewey. Bookies hate losing money and do their best to avoid doing so.

    If Trump's comment is true that Detroit can't compete in electric vehicles, then the auto industry in Detroit is done. Thankfully, he is wrong but even if he were right, it does no good to stick our head in the sand and pretend no changes are coming. As we know, the failure to address the need for cars with better fuel economy in the 1970s is one of the reasons Detroit lost its dominance over the car industry in the first place. Oil is a finite resource and is subject to the whims of countries who don't share American interests. It is a national security imperative that we create an electric car infrastructure and move away from our dependence on oil. The sooner we make the change, the easier the transition and why the electric vehicle legislation passed by Biden was important. Any politician who says different is pandering to American oil interests who are looking for short term corporate results and not long term American interests.
    The bottom line is if Trump gets elected and guts the electric car industry, the American car industry will never recover.

    The weirdest thing in all of this is how intractable the idea that Donald Trump is great for business has been. He's a relatively unsuccessful businessman, anti-union, and most famous for costing people their jobs on a fake game show. And his policy proposals and actual record in office demonstrate something other than real competence in guiding the United States economically. The only thing that makes sense is that people forgot how good things were going as a lead-in for him from the Obama years and forgot everything after those first three years he was in office. Oh, and also forgot the turmoil in markets and trade during those three years that probably cost us a lot of the potential benefits of a good economy. The only thing you can definitively give him is that he's great at marketing.

      Democracy as a concept doesn't seem to register. I would suggest however that pointing out how Trump literally tried to disenfranchise actual voters through criminal means should matter. I live in Georgia. He tried to coerce the Secretary of State to "find 11,780 votes" and change the outcome. He suborned the submission of fake electors. He tried to get the Vice President to kick the results back to state legislatures or to say the count was illegitimate so the House delegations should decide. All of that is direct criminal infringement on voting citizens including myself and millions of others. It should deeply matter to all of us.
