/in ,

As recently as a decade ago, Portland was widely seen as a model American city, a European wannabe built around dense apartments, mass transit and every conceivable form of political correctness. Now it is the latest place to be invaded by Donald Trump’s National Guard, and of course the political establishment is screaming its head off.

The socialist Zohran Mamdani’s stunning primary win in New York came largely off the back of concerns about housing affordability. California has recently passed legislation to reform environmental regulations that have hindered home-building.
