GOP IOWA CAUCUS
Criminal defendant, rapist, financial and moral fraud wins in Iowa.
For a few years, most of the world suffered through the psychological and economic devastation of the pandemic. Average workers emerged – quite remarkably – in almost the same shape as before the Covid-19 virus hit.
But that shape wasn’t all that great. Economic inequality remains quite terrible. Wage increases are only recently (and barely) outstripping inflation. And people are as angry at corporate elites, politicians and institutions of all kinds as they’ve ever been. Labor union support is soaring.
All this helps explain why former President Donald Trump romped to victory in the frigid Iowa GOP caucuses yesterday despite barely running a campaign in the state and skipping all the debates.
