So much so that it feels nearly impossible to keep up. That’s the prime issue with the fashion industry in today’s world: Its endless cycle of overproduction and overconsumption causes harm to both people and the planet.

And yet … even though the January 6 hearings have been so bad for Trump they have made Ron DeSantis look like a winner simply for not being mentioned, Trump is still ahead of or level with the Florida governor, his only serious rival, in most polling regarding the GOP nominee.
