There is a massive opportunity for the US in the next 5-10 years to take advantage of a Slow Adopter advantage by only now truly taking advantage of the technological and cost advances made in the past 5-10 years.

Now that the public has heard the term “Trillions” whether it relates to defense spending or company valuations, that term is now somewhat more meaningless for grand scale ideas. Couple that with rising energy costs and you have a potential public appetite for a massive push for renewable and storage of all kinds.

The US president and administration are very vocally against it. And are responsible for the ongoing crisis, with no sign of change

The US president will be gone and the Republicans will have to replace him. I dont know if Vance is up to the task of being "The New Trump."

But whoever takes his place will inherit a party that is very strongly against anything renewable and is financed by the fossil fuel industry

But also a party which famously is willing to play follow-the-leader at the hint of an election win.

Probably not. The man has no charisma. Don Jr seems like an idiot. Possibly Rubio, which would definitely be an upgrade from Trump. Or someone who isn't on anybody's radar yet.

I suspect people are going to be pretty sick of Republicans after another two years of this idiocy.

> Don Jr seems like an idiot

I mean.. doesn’t seem to matter, right?

It kind of does. Don Jr is just a professional son. The moment his father is gone, nobody will take him seriously.
