A direct correlation means that as one variable increases, the other variable also increases, resulting in a positive slope on a graph. In contrast, an inverse correlation indicates that as one variable increases, the other decreases, leading to a negative slope on a graph.

Maybe history books will record some of it.
Maybe history education will teach it
But will American students learn it?
If American education, which resulted in a criminal elected President, and the Constitution becoming a fantasy - then my guess is the history books will be shelfbound.

The dollar has been a lot lower in the last 20 years and yet is has remained king, despite its value relative to other currencies.
More than 80% of global trade is in USD and anchored by international SWAP agreements.

Your post notes NRA contributed $1M in 2016.
My source shows $6M.
And 2016 was the year Russia was using the NRA as a conduit to get Trump / Republicans elected.
The NRA pumped $54M into PACs etc. in 2016.
3x what they funneled in 2012 and 5x in 2024.

That chart is DECEPTIVE.
Reality is in the chart on the right.
30 million people were working in 1940. 30% = 9M jobs
120 million were working in 2020. 8% = 12M jobs, 3M more than 1940.
The number of manufacturing jobs did not start declining seriously until 2002.

That may be true in terms of absolute value, but Trump (as usual) is a lightweight (not figuratively speaking) when it comes to the true measure of a loser: percentage loss.
Trump will have to do better to even break into the top 10 of biggest losers.

If Trump wasn't elected he would in courts.
He shut down the FEC / DOJ investigations into his crimes.
He pledged his Tesla stock to buy X.
X has lost 2/3rds of its purchase price.
And Tesla is down more than 50% from its 52 week high.
Is $200 the threshold of fElon's end?
