Political article, political comment: Hah, nice unexpected result for Trump (and his corrupt genocide-wreaking idiot-whisperer Netanyahu) despite their chaotic action: drop bombs on Iran, oil crisis, oil price spike, everything gets more expensive because we all still use diesel to transport products, cost of living protests get co-opted by the right-wing populists to topple "liberal" governments. Oh wait, we're talking about France and Germany; they're stooge-o-cracies themselves, trying to soothe the right to not go full Nazi, but the right spectrum would rather have the full deal, and the left hate them for it.
