What’s this effect? Never heard of it
When a country goes to war, internal conflicts (i.e. left wing vs. right wing) are forgotten, or at least put on hold, and everyone is suddenly on the same page.
Example:
USA, September 11, 2001
Geeorge W. Bush’s approval rating went through the roof. It slowly drops, but then each time the US got a “victory” his approval goes up. The USA Patriot Act basically had no opposition, across the aisle.
