The ford mondeo (I think it was called the fusion in the US) was 'inspired' by the Aston Martin Rapide. This was at a time when Ford owned Aston Martin. Fisker and Porritt, who worked at tesla when the model S came out, also worked for Ford/Aston Martin.
It's not just me either. For example, here's a ten year old thread on the tesla forum which mentions it:

The tesla model S looks like a decade old eurospec Ford Mondeo.
Certainly look more alike than a porsche and a byd.
What happens when something requires maintenance in a month/week/day?

Textbook statistics don’t really hold when you have a huge selection bias, as just about any poll does.
Meh. Often quite accurate, if you read the small print and caveats. It's not 1980. Good pollsters don't just do landline surveys, they correct for demographic factors, and are transparent about flaws and limitations.
IME the problem is usually how the media reports on said polling.
Probably inflation.
You don't need to poll everyone to get relatively accurate polling results.
I have a related degree, it is possible with the necessary caveats, margins of error and confidence intervals. Statistics is a wonderful thing.
This being said, I actually read the full 77 page document they linked to, and if I'm not mistaken the 55% comes from a 2021 telephone poll. Obviously phone only polls are likely to be biased, even if you correct for demographic factors like age.
Then again, inflation is a problem.
I have a related degree.
The study was conducted for CNN via web and telephone on the SSRS Opinion Panel, a nationally representative panel of U.S. adults ages 18 or older recruited using probability-based sampling techniques.
BUT...
In a January 2021 poll taken just before Trump left office and days after the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, 55% considered his time as president a failure.
Relevant bit:
Unless otherwise noted, results beginning with the August 3-6, 2017 survey and ending with the April 21-26, 2021 survey are from polls conducted by SSRS via telephone only
TLDR: doubt those polls are representative.
when israel releases the 3000+ Palestinian hostages they hold in concentration camps we can reach a ceasefire.
In other words, you would rather that Israel continue bombing Gaza, than that Hamas and Israel sign a ceasefire today.
Almost as if you don't actually care about the innocent men, women and children who are dying, as you find it politically convenient the conflict continues. Especially in the run-up to the US election.
