What a week! The attempted assassination of Donald Trump, Joe Biden's unexpected withdrawal from the race, and Kamala Harris setting a fundraising record has thrown the U.S. political landscape into disarray. Dubbed a Gen X woman with Gen Z vibes, Harris has energized young voters, reminiscent of the Obama era. As Trump names J.D. Vance as his VP pick, we delve into the implications. Vance, a complex figure with a history of criticizing Trump, now embodies a unique mix of Elon Musk's innovation and Bernie Sanders' populism. His anti-corporate stance, advocacy for wage increases, and controversial views on immigration and foreign policy could redefine the MAGA movement. We explore how these shifts might impact Ireland and Europe, especially if American multinationals are pulled back home, potentially destabilizing the global economy. Tune in as we dissect these political upheavals and their far-reaching consequences.
