@sarahbauerled.bsky.socialNew: the Iran war's price increases on just two products, gasoline and diesel, has already cost American households $130 each (on avg), a total of $17 billion -- and it's rising fast. We have an Iran War Energy Cost Tracker @climatesollab.bsky.social. Check it out: iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
Show PostLots of replies to this invoking America being uniquely more religious & having uniquely greater problems with racism/xenophobia, & 1) that wasn't the piece's argument; & 2) folks clearly have not been to many European countries before.
Show PostAnother data point: Trump was the <first Republican> since 1988 to win more than 30% in 🇺🇸's largest city. 26.5% in LA. 22% in Chicago. Urban voters regularly vote 75-90% for Democrats across the country. Today, the RN is at 34% in Marseille, 🇫🇷's 2nd largest city. The AfD is at 17% in Berlin. Etc.
Show PostProbably not, but given that low propensity voters broke hard for Trump in 2024, not sure including them helps the numbers
