| ebr.... | Raising prices on each other only hurts their country's citizens. Stupid people fail to realize this. It's Trump's birthday trip, that's all. He's probably going to sightsee. |
| mark... | We can only hope!! |
| fcom... | Trump is unreliable, unhinged, unpredictable, unstable, "un" everything.... A traitor to the world..... Only Trump decides.... |
| erwi... | It is always to communicate and negotiate for a win win situation. Even if this talk does not have the desired outcome, it's just another step forward. |
| jane... | Although I’m not sure what will come out of a summit with the two authoritarian leaders, they will probably agree to something that benefits their hold on power, not their country |
| codf... | China thinks it has the whole world by the balls.Trade should be equal both ways |
| rgar... | Not sure if China will ever have an open relationship with the US. We need to try to improve relations with them. We also need to be prepared to compete and counter them on all levels. |
| mbul... | Not democracies need or want stability. Authoritarian regimes, which now seems to include the U.S. need their citizens to be fearful and miserable so they are grateful for any morsel to dear leader throws their way. |
| amwi... | Trump is a hot head and bully. He is incapable of productive negotiations. |
| geor... | If this meeting goes like Trump’s other meetings with Xi, Americans will likely know nothing about what really happens behind closed doors! Just like with Putin, secrecy is the goal as I am certain they are all talking about themselves and how they can help each other get even richer. |
| mary... | It depends on how much US oligarchs benefit from trade with China. |
| tubi... | trump cant help himself. he will hinder relations by bragging about things before and after, of which he know little more than a text about. |
| jenn... | I don't believe Trump has the best interest of his people in mind. I feel like this is a power trip, and he is trying to establish dominance with other world leaders rather than make peace and do things right. It's all about ego and I feel he is an oversized toddler throwing a tantrum anytime someone stands up to him. NO dignity or professionalism. |
| wrwa... | Still to many unanswered questions. Too big of an issue to be a yes or no answer. |
| jbel... | The only issue with China, United States is Donald Trump. What else do you want China to do to not be strong to not grow to not shoot for being the best in the world of course they’re gonna do that. That’s what we’re doing, but we’re losing especially with Donald Trump. |
| cica... | Trump is delusional, irrational and demented. Xi will play him like a violin. I’m quite sure Xi and Putin have traded notes on this |
| mike... | ORANGE HITLER IS A FOOL |
| jhck... | China will remain a scapegoat for Trump no matter what happens. |
| mdul... | Xi has a long term plan measured in years and decades aimed at ensuring China is the clear and undisputed sole superpower, both militarily and economically. Said another way, he is intent on doing what is required to take over what has been the US world position these last many decades. Trump does what feels right in the moment with little regard to the downstream effects of his actions. His world view has the US dominating and using its power as a cudgel. Their goals and methods are incompatible. |
| cb10... | Trump is a fool. |
| edga... | Trump is inept as representative of USA Interests. |
| bcar... | Trump will be fooled by Xi’s flattery |
| ehde... | I believe with trumps arrogant attitude he will prodigy more harm than good. He believes he knows everything which he proves every day to be just another one of his lies. After the fiasco he had with Ukraine president, I’m convinced he will have us in a war very soon. |
Which aspect of the Syria conflict concerns you the most?
- 54% Humanitarian crisis
- 42% Geopolitical power struggles
- 4% Other

| cica... | I fear all of it and it’s all of a piece. Syria could very easily evolve into a factional bloodbath. In the old United States, we would be pushing for a peacekeeping force while the country transitions away from dictatorship. This isn’t going to happen now. |
| mbul... | Power struggles feed for humanitarian crises. |
| tubi... | the the US Govt backed petrol industry might see this as an uncontrollable oil provider and react as they have historically. (regime change, skullduggery, and the like) |
| kibb... | Both options you offer are intertwined |
| bcar... | They have to stop the killing in order to begin to act as a cohesive nation. |
| jhck... | This surely will help Putin who wants strong ties with Syria . |
| zack... | The United States has wanted to flip Assad for decades. They finally got their wish. Now the terrorist linked, US funded government is committing genocide. Congratulations!!!! |
| ksdb... | Christians are being persecuted and killed! |
What type of travel do you prioritize?
- 50% Domestic budget travel
- 50% International or premium travel
| Comments | |
|---|---|
| bcar... | I’ve cut back on international travel |
| john... | Once you fly Qatar, you can never go back. Actually once you fly even American business class, you can never go back! |
| tahe... | Non-premium air travel has gotten so unappealing due to lack of space that only premium travel is acceptable which makes for fewer trips due to overall cost considerations. |
| ashl... | International travel has become wildly expensive. |
| ebr.... | Yeah, my family's taking a break from traveling via planes for a little bit. Four years to be exact. We don't trust what's happening with the FAA and I refuse to be a guinea pig during this administration. Our travel plans will commence with our new president in 28/29. |
| joer... | Delta is overpriced for the service they deliver. Domestically they profit from the small amount of non-budget airlines left, but premium international travel is not competitive. Delta One prices are high and product is inferior. |
Should the US government continue funding the CHIPS Act?
- 85% Yes, it’s critical for national security
- 13% No, let the private sector handle it
- 2% Other
| Comments | |
|---|---|
| amri... | as usual knee jerk reaction and dumb approach by the current admin. Stupid, risky and anti national. |
| jhck... | Trump is inconsistent and down right stupid to halt Chip Act funding. |
| rich... | And its bringing manufacturing onshore - isn't that the stated goal, or was that yesterday? |
| jrom... | If they are looking at repeal because it is or has been wasteful, it would seem wiser to manage it better and trim the fat. On the other hand, if we have a commitment from Taiwan to build a plant in the U. S. that can serve a majority of our needs, we may not need to subsidize firms as part of CHIPS. |
| bcar... | Trump would like to undo anything that Biden did in an attempt to hurt Biden’s legacy |
| tubi... | the govt should incentivize, not fund. tax breaks, permitting, etc. should favor the industry, but no taxpayer funding for a private, self-profiting company. |
| zack... | When you don’t have globalist in charge then the private sector works as intended. |
| ebr.... | Those who voted for Trump are finding out how much he has lied to get where he is. Could you let them find out? I have my popcorn. |
| mbul... | Trump is an ignorant psychopath. He wants to reserve anything Biden did, especially if it benefits America and Americans. |
| mark... | Can't let the other countries beat us out! |
| ehde... | As usual you can expect Trump to do just the opposite of the right thing. He wants bring manufacturing back to the U.S. ? Here’s a chance for us to do it and he wants to cancel the program. He doesn’t care about manufacturing jobs or the people all his cuts in government spending are just to offset the tax breaks he gives to corporations and billionaires. Even his own store that sell his tacky Trump products is loaded from items made in China. He’s a fake, conman. |
| art.... | Ponch & John FTW! |
| aubr... | Anyone surprised that Trump said one thing and then changed his mind and flip-flopped on it later is an idiot. |
| kold... | Another attack on automakers, dependent on that technology. |
| bc11... | If tariffs are intended to bring manufacturing to America, why undermine homemade computer chips? |
| rand... | The only reason Trump wants to eliminate it is because he did nothing postive like it in his first term and wants to destroy any positive movement Biden made! Trump is destroying American government and our allies! |
How do you feel about the pace of medical innovation?
- 58% It’s appropriately cautious for safety
- 40% It’s too slow, we need faster approvals
- 2% Other
| Comments | |
|---|---|
| mbul... | Good luck getting funding for cancer research from the people who believe RFK Jr is the best America has offer with regard to healthcare. |
| nick... | For the amount of money that’s been put into cancer research we should have a cure by now. But finding a cure would mean admitting what causes cancer and there’s too much money in the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry to do that. |
| bcar... | There’s no quick fix |
| ebr.... | Side effects are a part of the treatment of cancer. The doctors must kill the cancer cells but not kill the host. That's a tough spot to be in. Passing it thru too quickly is a bit too dangerous in the long run. Maybe short term it can be tried just to help the worst cases with no other options. |
Do you think society is too hesitant to explore psychedelics for medical use?
- 84% Yes, we need to be more open-minded
- 15% No, caution is necessary
- 1% Other
| Comments | |
|---|---|
| mart... | Big pharma doesn’t make money on psychedelics and therefore they don’t want the public to have access to what really works. That doesn’t drive the earnings. |
| kibb... | Animal testing is barbaric and unnecessary with our technology and computer modeling. |
| eli.... | Too much evidence not to. |
| ebr.... | As someone with a history of mild, moderate, and severe cases of concussions and traumatic brain injuries, YES. Let the doctors try it on people. Nobody deserves to suffer like I have. The brain and nervous system control everything. Dose the hell out of these patients, then play them their favorite music and familiar sounds. It helps in recovery a lot. |
| mbul... | I’m not too confident that open mindedness will win the day - look no further than the marijuana debacle. |
| jenn... | Most prescriptions on the market now have terrible side effects that lead to other problems. I would much rather use natural processes like mushrooms to explore safer and more effective medications and help cure some of these horrible diseases |
| tds0... | Adults should have the right to decide which medication and drug therapy is best for them. |
