What about majority of murders?

There's no case for specifically disarming a group of people who commit majority of crimes involving guns?
Apparently Labor is going to treat Incel ideology similarly to political Islam in the UK
Pander to them and prosecute anyone who doesn't like them? /sarcasm
I think that women in UK have legitimate reasons to feel unsafe due to mass immigration and Labour wants those feelings to be abstracted and redirected to all men in general.

Of course WW1 and 2 would start with the same arrangement of players if Britain was more powerful, but that doesn't there wouldn't be massive wars. Maybe the war would have been British vs the whole Europe.

They got 33.7% of the votes of people who did vote. The reason they won so many seats is tory voters going for reform out of frustration.

"Not a blathering moron" is a pretty low bar for a presidential candidate.
It causes cancers in other animals for sure.

In around 2016 Trump said that women who get illegal abortions should be punished, it was a big controversy at the time.

It's not 2016 anymore. Trump is integrated with the GOP establishment now. RNC chair Ronna McDaniel was his toadie. He endorsed both previous speaker McCarthy and current speaker Johnson.

Easier to balance a budget when not paying close to a trillion a year in interest payments.
...Or just default on the debt. Lending to Uncle Sam in the current situation is irresponsible behaviour, after all - you wouldn't* lend to an alcoholic during a binge.

So, Trump can only do the right thing for his supporters only if it doesn't cost him in any way? Maybe you have invested your hopes and dreams in the wrong guy then?
DeSantis was far superior - not so old, not indicted, hasn't lost to Biden once already, not involved in a bunch scandals, can serve two terms, not obese, better on handling Covid, not related to Kushner, on the right of Trump on various issues, etc.
Tea party was about fiscal responsibility. At the end of Trump administration US was close to outright socialism, with the stimmy checks, rent moratorium and unemployment paying more than a minimum wage job. If Tea party mutated into that, that's some real "Cthulhu only swims left" stuff. Your guy wins a popularity contest and you completely lose any mission objective along the way.

They shouldn't be "happy with him" though. He beat a far better candidate in the current primary based on voter ignorance, glib charm and lies, likely will lose in the general and sell you down the river again if he wins. He doesn't believe in anything except his narcissism.

no new entanglements
He started arming Ukraine and bombed Syria.
new trade deals and reshoring manufacturing
He made a lot of noise and got US hit by retaliatory tariffs, haven't achieved much benefit AFAIK.
(It is definitely not akin to reparations.)
That was supposed to be funds earmarked for blacks only, call that whatever you like.
"Gun control" is also not very compelling when I presume you're really just referring to bump stocks.
It wasn't just bump stocks, he pushed for red flag laws ("take the guns first, go through due process later").
Ironically, MAGAs aren't getting much of anything out of it, Trump didn't have to do anything for them because he has their vote anyway. For example, left a bunch of his most ardent supporters who participated in J6 to democrat mercy while pardoning scammers and rappers. He pushed for gun control, First Step criminal release and Platinum plan reparations, because what are anyone unhappy with that on the right going to do, vote for Biden?
Well, yeah, left handers are actually more criminally inclined, there's just less of them.
