About 76% of the country is dissatisfied with how the economy is going.

And a lot of that is because of the war.

And so the war is obviously driving up gas prices, which is then leading to inflation in other areas.

Of course, a lot of things use not just oil and gas, but fertilizer, which has also been blocked through the Strait of Hormuz.

So we're having an energy crisis, actually mainly in Asia and Europe, more so than even America.

So that's why the South Koreans are livid at the Israelis, that they're having to, you know, conserve gas and go through lean times because Israel wanted this war and literally no one else on planet Earth did.

And so shortages in India.

And this is all before we re-engage and restart the war, which is what I'm afraid is going to come next.

So now some folks have a hard time believing this, but we have to go back to a conversation we had earlier.

Remember, in America, we legalize bribery.

So one corporation can give an infinite amount to a super PAC.

Corporate interests, lobbyists, individuals.

To give you a sense of the scale of the problem, one family alone, the Adelson family, Miriam and Sheldon Adelson, have given Donald Trump over $317 million in campaign contributions.

We used to have a word for that.

It was called a bribe.

And Trump is so accidentally honest on this stuff.

He just can't keep anything in his head from going outside his mouth.

So he has said, oh, Miriam, she cares more about Israel than America, right?

I'm like, no, that's super awkward.

And then he says, oh, Sheldon Adelson used to come in here and tell me what to do all the time.
