    I pray to god that they put people in power whose #1 priority is addressing the cost of living crisis. If they keep pushing idiots who are more concerned with identity politics than the well-being of the American people, this powder keg is going to explode.

    There can only be so many young men who are unable to find a job and unable to afford a house before you end up with a civil war. Trump completely ignored our economic problems. If the next administration does the same the only outlet will be violence.

      that they put people in power whose #1 priority is addressing the cost of living crisis.

      To do that they’ll have to look far below the surface at the actual root causes. And fixing that, even if they do everything 100% perfectly, will take a long time to accomplish.

      Hopefully the American people have the patience and wisdom to allow that to happen, and don’t just toss them all out if there aren’t instant results. (I don’t expect the electorate to have either, but I am willing to be pleasantly surprised.)
