“growing popularity”? “substance over style”? “obvious”? “truth”? You need to clarify all this, Anon, but you cannot use Fox News or Trump as sources.

Growing popularity ... check voter turnout on Tuesday
Substance ... what gets done or not donei
Style ... how it gets done or not done

BTW, didn’t ‘spaceball Rudy’ Guiliani tells us that truth is relative so that there is no obviousness to it: “Truth isn’t truth.”

As there are flat-earthers, holocaust-deniers, and anti-vaccinators, there are few if any obvious truths.

Beliefs and Truths overlap only to a limited extent. And time-delimiting any future event is simply extrapolation.
