The last ten years or so have made it crystal clear that people have no idea how any part of the world works. I am just astounded by the blatant ignorance!
1/2: It's everything from people using the internet to get their "news" with no verification to, frankly, news itself which has infantilized politics for years, turning it into a sport where you root for the "team" you're on.
Except that we're all on the same team. Ironically, people know WAY...
2/2: more about sports and their favorite teams (or fantasy leagues) then the gov't that will affects all our lives. Yet if their favorite team was being incompetently and corruptly run they'd be all over it.
Not so with MAGA, where's it's "my team no matter what."
Also: Take a look at why Trump may suddenly be into Crypto: The Tech Bros are trying to raid Fort Knox so they can have real money instead of their phony Crypto money:
So glad I at least get to tell morons “I told you so” as we all choke and starve. And avoid basic safety precautions for the next global pandemic in case it smears dear leaders makeup.
If only MSM had these discussions before everyone voted, & these takes had been blasted into every corner of internet so low info voters had some basis of what might be coming by putting Orange Magoo "Savior" back into WH. Sadly, rest of us where screaming into void pointlessly this was coming.
Tariffing countries in our own hemisphere is nonsensical. It opens the door for China to swoop in and buy up those products and then if the U.S. wants them, which we need them, or grocery produce aisles will be barren. Then China will sell them to us double the price to make up for their purchase $
Still no attention is being paid to the inflationary pressure, brought on by the GOP's war on women.
They're going to send healthcare costs skyrocketing.
For young couples and families in particular. Rising healthcare costs are baked on the cake of goods and services we buy.
Mexico is also the leading producer of lemons and limes. We also import 8.6 billion dollars of canola from Canada. And just wait for the tariff retaliation from our neighbors and the effect on farmers
I hate to even watch clips of CNN at this point. I agree with the point being made, but that network can fuck right off. Sane washed us into this mess.

In 2020–22 - 32% of farmworkers U.S. born, 7% were immigrants with U.S. citizenship, 19 percent were other authorized immigrants, and the remaining 42% no work authorization.
HIGHER PRICES!

But I have to wonder, could CNN possibly get a few more people on this panel? 🤣🤣
Like, what are they even aiming for?
