From the Left
AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
How deeply is President Trump mired in disasters of his own making? Let me count the ways:
His deeply unpopular war against Iran resulted in a stronger Iran regime, dared Iran to restrict the Strait of Hormuz and led to a damaged-but-hardly-obliterated nuclear program. On the home front, gas and grocery prices are high, and consumer confidence is low. The looming midterm elections could shift the balance of power in Congress to Democrats, at least in the House, which would signal the beginning of Trump's lame duck era.
