Consumers across Europe furious over President Donald Trump’s policies are boycotting U.S. goods. Among the most passionate are Danes, seeking a way to protest Trump's threat to seize the Danish territory of Greenland.
it sort of doesn’t matter because the billionaires control the media to the point that they can set up inflation and immigration as the major issues and portray Trump as the solution to them while, in all statistical measures, the inflation and immigration were just fine under Biden and all of Trump’s related policies are godawful
Inflation and immigration were both at like 40 year highs. Also not only did a large number of billionaires favor Harris, but Harris won the majority of American households making over 200k per year.
You know the US isn’t the only country that has issues due to letting in more immigrants than they can handle right? You are stating a position that would be considered radical in virtually every western nation as if it were an established fact.
the US isn’t a country that has issues due to letting in more immigrants. the US historically has a culture based in immigration and diversity as a cultural touchstone and does not suffer from immigration in the way that a country where the national identity is tightly coupled to an ethnolinguistic group would.

Just because things worked out eventually doesn’t mean there weren’t extreme issues getting there.
Are you even American? This is something the vast majority of Americans know from both an educational and family history perspective.
i’m not just american, i’m the child of an immigrant to america. i’m aware of the strife because my ancestors encountered it, but again, the strife historically hasn’t been because of rational self-interest in labor forces but because of racist and moneyed forces coaxing lateral violence between communities

inflation, yes, for 2021-2022 but it was in normal territory for 2023-2024. immigration, there is no rational argument for why a high rate is bad
