The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Going to need confirmation polls on this. Hoping it's an aberration - if it continues it's bleak It also means I don't understand my fellows.
*******

First, it is still early. President Rudy Giuliani, President Hillary Clinton will tell you that. For more ridiculous, YET statistically bankable numbers, Presidents Rick Perry, Herman Cain, Howard Dean and Mike Bloomberg will attest - it's early.

BUT.....yes, you do not understand many of your fellows.

Much of Club 401K here, and in the Coastal Corporate-Media-Complex, don't understand their fellows.

That's why they earned Trump, and they earned TrumpISM coming out of the woodwork and becoming mainstream in America, Brazil. India, Britain, Austria, France, Spain just to name a few.

Then on a smaller level, the Social Right didn't understand their fellows when Roe v Wade got overturned- and Red Ohio and Red Kansas stood up for abortion rights, and Repubs lost 2022 when they should have won.

From Brussels to London to NYC to LA to Target to Budweiser to Disney.....they don't understand their fellows - - and they had (NO) intention to understand their fellows.

So now here you are. Dems can win elections.......but MAGA is a plurality that HAS AND WILL gum up the works around the world.

NY City begging for immigration help. And the earth continues to warm.

Oh and here's a good one: Imagine, FOX and MSNBC are gonna be helping craft social security and entitlement reform.

Ain't that neat?
