Panama's president says there will be no negotiation about ownership of canal
-
We're already putting tarrifs on Taiwan.
Giving Ukraine to Russia and Taiwan to China were part of Trump's deal to become president.

Trump is the President of the common man.

"Richest third" is a useless division.
You pretty need to have some equity in a house to be in that category, and it goes all the way up to nearly half a trillion in networth. A significant portion of that "richest" third isn't even middle class.

I think tha Panamanians are missing an opportunity here. They could trade the canal for say, Florida?
-
No one wants Florida. Floridians live there.
-
Not for long! It'll be underwater soon.

But Mar-a-lardo goes along with it.

Thank you. I was surprised and confused by the graph. Of course you can't go by thirds. Income inequality is so great that this graph is practically useless. I'd like to see it split into tenths though.
-
The upper third is, as you say, the middle class. (The people with half a trillion in net worth don't show up on graphs like that at all because there are so few of them.) However, my main point is that the majority of people in the bottom third preferred Trump.
The poor preferred Harris almost as much as the upper middle class did, but Trump's message was particularly appealing to working class voters, which is why he was elected.

The richest third is the upper middle class. The super-wealthy don't show up on graphs like this at all because there are so few of them.

Under 30k isn't working class anywhere. That's pretty damn bad off.
