It\u2019s gasoline,\u201d he said. He suggested that lowering oil prices below $70 per barrel before November could significantly influence voter opinions and potentially affect control of Congress.<\/p>\n President Donald Trump has faced criticism over inflation and affordability issues. Economist Peter Schiff cited a July AP-NORC poll showing Trump\u2019s approval rating at 33%, attributing the low numbers to voter concerns over rising costs. Lawmakers including Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren have accused the administration of favouring billionaires and worsening household expenses through spending priorities and tariffs. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker also criticised Trump\u2019s handling of inflation.<\/p>\n In related news, recently Kevin O\u2019Leary believes that the fear of China\u2019s rise will be the driving force behind deeper economic integration between the United States, Canada and Mexico. According to a report by Business Insider, O\u2019Leary posted a video on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) in which the venture capitalist said that covers over China\u2019s advances in AI, technology, warfare and power generation will outweigh political disagreements across North America. O\u2019Leary argued that each country brings unique strengths to the table: \u201cCanada has the energy and critical minerals, the United States has the scale and innovation, and Mexico plays a vital role in the North American economy,\u201d he said. He added that cooperation is not just good policy but \u201can economic necessity\u201d as the race for AI, energy, and critical infrastructure accelerates.The comments made by the Canadian billionaire come amid the growing recognition of China\u2019s technological momentum. SpaceX CEO Elon Musk also recently told Economist that China already produces far more electricity than the US and it could become the world\u2019s AI leader if it manages to secure enough computing power. American AI labs OpenAI and Anthropic have also warned that Chinese rivals are closing the gap, with Beijing-based Moonshot AI drawing attention for its Kimi K3 model.<\/div>\n Canadian billionaire
