Trump Picked Three Fights. Guess Who Gets Stuck With the Damage?

from A WORLD GONE MAD · host Jeff Alan Wolf

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWDonald Trump has picked a trade war with Canada, and Americans may soon discover exactly what a 50 percent tariff looks like when it reaches the checkout line. I break down what’s coming, why Canada is retaliating, and what you might want to buy sooner rather than later before higher prices hit.Meanwhile, something deeply unsettling is happening inside the United States Army. Pete Hegseth has been making changes at the very top, experienced leaders are disappearing, important chairs are sitting empty, and one particularly bizarre episode raises questions about just how the Pentagon is being run.Then there’s the Supreme Court. With the midterms roughly 70 days away, a 6-to-3 decision has opened the door for Donald Trump to begin making changes involving mail-in voting. What happens next could affect millions of voters, and the timing alone should get everybody’s attention.There’s a difference between changing election rules and changing them while an election is already bearing down on you. If you vote by mail, know somebody who does, or simply give a damn about what happens in November, this is something you need to understand before Election Day gets here.And if all of this feels like an extraordinary amount of disruption to absorb at once, that’s because it is. Some of it could hit sooner than you think, some of it could matter long after the headlines disappear, and all of it deserves a much closer look.🎙️ A World Gone Mad with Jeff Alan WolfSubscribe to A World Gone Mad with Jeff Alan Wolf for independent news commentary that looks beyond today’s headlines to the bigger forces shaping American democracy.Looking for more independent news commentary and original articles?Visit Jeff’s Substack.https://open.substack.com/pub/[email protected]
