I feel like going after guns in Australia after a terrorist attack is like trying to ban prop planes after 9/11. I get the sentiment, but it's a different problem that needs a different solution. Plus, even if you have all the solutions already enacted, eventually something bad is going to happen.

Paradoxically, in normal times this should be career ending, but right now we shouldn't focus too much on it because of the shitton of actual legitimate crimes his admin is doing.

I'll agree that the vibecession was a real thing and the economy was genuinely improving, but the housing crisis remains an increasingly severe problem, likewise with certain consumer goods skyrocketing in price over the last ten years, like, as silly as it sounds, fast food.
