  • Because from a human perspective, it doesn't matter. The planet used to be a ball of molten rock at one point, it doesn't mean we should shrug our shoulders at the thought of it returning to a molten state. It may be "natural" but it's not suitable for humans.

  • Here is a source for you to use in the future:

    The number the New York Fed came up with is 90% was passed onto the consumer.

  • Is every death at the hands of Israel against someone who is terrorist or has "terrorist-aligned ideologies"? If not, is every unjustified death of a civilian just "one IDF soldier doing something bad"?

    You are handwaving away any sort of accountability from Israel. It is impossible, given your framing, for Israel to ever do anything wrong.

  • How do you go from a campaign motto of "No new wars" to "War with Iran" and still maintain it was a central campaign plank of the Trump Admin?

  • > We can’t have elections in the middle of a major war.

    Yes we can? Is there any provision in the US Constitution that allows delay of election because of war? We have had elections during most of our recent wars (Iraq, Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan).

    Trump could definitely try. Or pull an emergency card out of his ass. But it doesn't mean there is any provision for cancelling elections because of this 'war' with Iran (which they aren't even calling a war, but a "special combat operation" to get around congress having the war powers)
