Right down to the voter interviews that are like "why did you vote (leave/trump)?" and the reasoning is completely different from anything that voting choice might result in and/or deranged ramblings based on a campaign slogan
there’s a LOT to say about trump’s actual campaign promises and how they worked for him in 2024 functioning as brexit 2: electric bugaloo like the little old England sentiment (Midwest edition), mass hatred and distrust of immigrants essential to economic function, removal from global spheres, nationalism, rage against internal industry controls and regulation, and a lot of people being very very stupid and allergic to googling WHAT IS TARIFF.
And then when every professional economist was like this is a terrible and reactionary idea that will harm the economic bottom line of literally everyone wayyyy too many people were like silence intellectual elite I’m here to trust the billionaires, who would never lie to me!
