president
They've chopped down cherry trees and waged full-on war. Riding the highs and lows of the leaders who've tried to Make America Great Again.
I don't want to live through another Trump presidency.
When I shared McSweeney's list of the damage that Trump has done, my uncle laughed at me. I thought that the people who raised me taught me about integrity. I thought they believed that lying is wrong. My dad warned me about the sex offender's in my grandma's neighborhood, and warned me that it wasn't safe to walk alone.

The Impact of Interest Rate Cuts on the United States Dollar, Global Markets, and Bitcoin
The Federal Reserve has a number of powerful instruments at its disposal, one of the most important of which is the choice to reduce interest rates.

There are, however, benefits and drawbacks associated with interest rate reductions, and the ramifications extend beyond the borders of the United States, having an effect on markets throughout the world as well as alternative assets such as Bitcoin. In this essay, we will discuss the benefits and drawbacks of lowering interest rates, with a particular emphasis on the ways in which this affects the economy of the United States, stock markets throughout the world, the United States dollar, and Bitcoin.

The Truth About Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s Economy: What Trump and Vance Don’t Want You to Know
I have taken the time to research and write this essay because I feel it is important that people vote on the facts instead of lies. I find it reprehensible that Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are basing a major part of their presidential campaign on an outright lie.

You can't trump a messiah in an election year, not even in the US
Apart from the early years when I’d not long been granted the right to vote, I’ve not really attended the election pantomime in the United Kingdom for the past 40 years having reached the conclusion long ago that politics is a rigged game across the globe.

Is Trump's policy enough to make up for his personality
This was undeniably a generational Republican ballot. With Doug Burgum, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Ron DeSantis all present, it felt like the only person missing was a Bush. Every angle of right-wing philosophy was represented on that stage: neoconservatives, libertarians, America First proponents, foreign policy enthusiasts, governors, and newcomers.
