    Sadly it will roll back as soon as the next republican takes office. The elastic shit show of American politics continues

      Possibly, but the trend of American elections where we’d typically see 8 years of one candidate being president then switching to the other party for 8 years is likely over now. The average boomer has started retirement, and the young voters replacing them are increasingly left wing given the last 20 years of failures from U.S geopolitics in regions like the Middle East or even domestic issues like how fewer and fewer people can own a home.

      Historically, the midterm elections should have been a right wing blowout, especially with the economy in its current state.

        Probably domestic issues only. Only right wing cares about geopolitics.

        Also this is world-wide trend.

      Well, yes, but at the same time, companies will likely hedge and adopt a conservative (in the context of regulatory compliance) business model that complies with the new regulations (which may be on-again/off-again due to political changes) just to simplify matters. Switching how your business works every time the presidency flips parties has real financial disadvantages. In the long run, it’s very likely more profitable if they pick one approach and stick with it.
