What Americans Want and why Democrats Failed
That's nice. Please adjust for after tax and time value. Also, please reflect the reality. The vast majority of Americans are struggling to pay this month's expenses. The server at Denny's, the cashier at Walmart, the school teacher in Topeka, typically does not have $100 a month to invest like this. -

What Americans Want and why Democrats Failed
Long term planning and strategy is not a trait of the US citizen or of US companies. Very few Americans are thinking about 25 years. Most are struggling to pay this month's expenses. Over several decades I have worked for large US multinationals. The emphasis, the focus was always on short term gain, of increasing share price and maximizing shareholder return. -

Why Donald Trump Could be a Major Challenge for the British Government
Another example of interference in US elections by a foreign (UK) agency, likely with official approval if not actual support: https://greenmedinfo.com/content/exposed-ccdh-ceo-imran-ahmed-orders-black-ops-against-rfk-jr-shocking-memo-lea Of course "western" countries in general think nothing of themselves interfering in the politics of other countries. A tactic little appreciated in other parts of the world. -

What Americans Want and why Democrats Failed
Understood. However, A 2023 survey conducted by Payroll.org highlighted that 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, a 6% increase from the previous year. In other words, more than three-quarters of Americans struggle to save or invest after paying for their monthly expenses. https://www.forbes.com/advisor/banking/living-paycheck-to-paycheck-statistics-2024/#:~:text=or lost income.-,How Many Americans Are Living Paycheck to Paycheck%3F,paying for their monthly expenses. The Forbes article is potent and to be honest, I am oblivious to their plight. Like you, I am concerned only with my ROI on investments. I am still paying into the retirement plans, and doubt I will collect what I contributed to the government when the time comes to claim the benefit. The Trump campaign understood the fears and concerns of the paycheck to paycheck people and gave them something to dream for, to hope for. The Democrats did not. Desperate people will attach themselves to the candidate who offers a chance to do better. -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Trump Will Test European Solidarity on NATO, Ukraine and Trade Another Trump term could spur Europe’s efforts to stand on its own, but it is far from clear its leaders will seize the moment this time. https://archive.ph/5PaAI#selection-5239.0-5243.137 Trump changes everything - this war started under Biden and will end under Trump. Whether Ukraine will survive as a viable state is a moot point. Blinken and Nuland along with Putin have blood on their hands. -

Trump is back! He has won.
So Harris received 68 million and Trump received 72 million. Final? In what was most likely the largest turnout of any election in recent history.
