The liberal media has a long memory for Palmer Luckey. They hate that he backed Trump (which got him fired from Meta), so we have to hate him on principle.

You are conflating intelligence with speaking style. I did not say he was the most intelligent person ever.
However! Your example just proved my point - Trump speaks using concrete details, examples, light metaphor, sound bite anecdotes - and all of it is concrete. Harris speaks in meaningless generalities.
Every time Trump speaks, he speaks rather concretely. He doesnâ(TM)t always get the facts perfect but the guy is a concrete thinker who got his start literally building buildings. His words reflect a desire to build a specific thing or do a specific thing.
in contrast, Kamala Harris, always spoke in the most vague platitudes and generalities. Her words belied a desire to never commit herself to any position or concrete plan of action. Partially because she was a politician, and partially because she is an idiot.

Seriously, Kalshi has a history of this kind of deceptive practices. Not to mention they, like all betting markets, profit from addiction.
Some examples:
CFTC vs. Kalshi — Election Betting Dispute (2022–2025)
Massachusetts AG Lawsuit (September 2025)
New York Federal Class Action — Illegal Sports Betting (November 2025)
"Deceptive Gambling Platform" Class Action (January 2026)
Nevada Gaming Regulators vs. Kalshi (2025–ongoing)
Multi-State Cease-and-Desist Actions
Ah this old trope. It's pedantic and false, but if it makes you feel good *shrug*
I came here to say the same thing. Unless youâ(TM)re dealing with an article on physics, geography, or engineering, almost everything on Wikipedia has a noticeable slant. It is not limited to politics, it encompasses pretty much everything except the hard sciences.
You got down voted for not being woke enough. You can never appease the woke mob completely - should have called Trump a Nazi.
We promise guys, trust us.
It's starting to look like OpenAI is the Myspace to Anthropic's Facebook.
"Thanks for opening the market, we'll take it from here!"
Electricity costs, water usage, noise pollution. Data centers come in asking for fat tax breaks claiming they will bring jobs- more and more people are saying no thanks.
There is also the question of rebalancing. When illegal immigrants are no longer in the labor market, wages rise, because supply has dropped. In addition, cost of living tends to go down because the demand for housing and other goods also drops. There is more to this equation than the propaganda about Americans, not wanting certain jobs.
Italy and South Korea come to mind as well.
We are indeed.
A small number are US citizens. The vast majority are here illegally. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dhs.gov%2Fnews%2F2025%2F...
We're about 15% of the way there. At least 20 million people are in our country illegally. At least 2.5m have left voluntarily.
