    He doesn’t care about being unpopular, he is a dictator beholden to nobody. He does care about protecting his kompromat that he has over all the other rich pedos. If it gets released it’s no longer valuable to him.

      and raising grocery and gas prices is going to help that? the prices have people against the pedos in charge.

        He’s making shitloads of money off those high prices. He does care. Just not in the way people want him to.

          the importance of bread-and-butter issues on popularity more than make up for that (look at the polling), even if true, and i see no evidence that gas moguls are now donating more to trump (or even making shitloads more profit, for that matter) or that trump is connected to grocery moguls.

          we need to pare things back to the evidence to fight disinformation and remain grounded in truth and better decisions. for example, this means democrats would do extremely well if they campaigned with economic populism.
