My very online 22 year old son tells me that most people on 4 Chan now hate Trump and think he is a clown. This is very different from a year ago. Anecdotal, but interesting.

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

Sen. Mike Lee has introduced an amendment to the Interior appropriations bill that would remove language preventing the sale of national parks and other protected lands.
It could pave the way for the Trump administration to sell off #NationalParks to the highest bidder.

This also happened during Trump’s first term. That 2024 dip? That’s when Democrats went on the defensive, and let Trump and MAGA dictate the immigration narrative.
Why, it’s almost as if political leadership (good and bad) can actually drive public opinion, instead of always following it.
