That’s a nice thought, but I am pretty sure that Trump leads among white voters. The election wouldn’t be close otherwise.

Can journalists of respectable outlets please just put the conclusion in the headline? Those that briefly read headlines (90 percent of readers) will now assume that Biden lost 88,000 children. Even worse behind a paywall.

Are we now to the point where we’re deifying Clinton? He had sex with a subordinate (likely more than one). His policies resulted in incarceration of minorities, and a decline in life standards for people at the bottom of the income distribution. You are NOT the first person who had to hold his nose while voting for the lesser evil, and frankly in his day the GOP candidate looked much better than it does now.

What makes you think that? Do you think we are buying made in China artillery shells? Of course the West makes its own. The main difference is that we never expected to need very many of them, because in a typical war the West has air superiority and uses bombs/rockets instead of shells.

Doesn’t seem to be an SC case. Should be obvious that you can’t have a trademark that includes someone else’s name. How did it end there?

For politicians they usually you the term previous or past to indicate they are no longer in power. So Trump would be past president or PP. since he was only in power for one term, you might want to add the adjective small, such that Trump’s full title becomes small PP.

Actually, when kings/queens abdicate they usually lose the title king/queen. These titles are then re bestowed upon death. Would of course be ridiculous to have two living kings at the same time (similar to presidents).

Yes, policing can be important, but it also helps that socioeconomic conditions have improved since the pandemic.

Of course, climate change is one of the main drivers of future migration so this is very counterproductive.

This is just such a false narrative. The issue is not a lack of funds to help our own citizens and refugees. The issue is that those funds are concentrated among very few very wealthy people. Those wealthy people would very much like us to blame the refugees.

The saddest part is that Italian farmland is quickly losing value due to climate change (especially lack of rain). Here is a great alternative source of income for farmers that will also solve the underlying problem. Instead they choose to continue to pollute.
