What were the expectations of those 63%? Did they expect he would start a nuclear war on day 1? Well, yes, by that measure he’s done better than expected. That poll doesn’t tell us a whole lot.

In my opinion we are all different to some degree.
My best friends growing up were twin brothers. To me they were entirely different. To almost everyone else, they were exactly the same in every way.
There is nothing wrong with being different except when you harm others.
Iowa just became the first state to remove gender identity from its anti-discrimination laws.
You can now legally be denied housing or fired from a job simply for being even suspected of being trans. Is opposing such laws "pushing an agenda"?

More of a principle than an agenda.
Is it just fine for me, as a landlord (say), to deny you housing because I think that you look like you might be trans? Or Black? Or Christian? Or a Jew?
Or to say that denying you housing because I think that you look like you might be trans is OK, but the other reasons are not valid?
The principled approach is to say that you can't do any of that.
Germany was for years the economic engine of the EU. High energy costs and political turmoil have resulted in predictions of a 5% shrinkage of Germany's GNP in 2025. Add that to the growth, perhaps doubling of Germany's defense budget extending years into the future, and the available capital for economic growth is severely reduced.
UK is in a more precarious situation. Starmer pledging $Billions of military aid is a joke. UK has neither the $Billions or enough equipment, armaments, nor personnel to make a difference.
All of the EU couldn't field two combat ready divisions in months. Poland spends more of their GNP on military budgets, but are way more interested in divvying up what's left of Ukraine than being ground zero for Russian missile arrivals.
Oh, and the US is dead broke. $36Trillion now?
What a ****ing mess the war pigs have wrought!
And you know who you are....
The future of the world will not play out in the museum that is Europe. Frankly, said continent is not worthy of much of our attention any more.
Look to the east where China, India and America and her allies will grow the economies and engage in the geopolitical chess game that will shape the future of our world.
Europe wont go quietly, they will continue to squawk about how good they were at High School football and that they deserve to be included.
