After a legion of challenges, Donald Trump has just accomplished the most stunning political comeback in United States history.
The former president was reported to have achieved this victory for three main reasons: The first was that some 70% of Americans, according to exit polls, thought the US was on the wrong track and wanted change. Kamala Harris, the vice president and the candidate of the Democratic Party, promised none.
The second was that Trump reportedly broadened his appeal and outreach, eating into the so-called “Obama coalition” by winning sizable numbers of minorities and young people.
And the third was that Harris reportedly ran a ‘lousy campaign.’
Numerous surveys showed voters, fed up with inflation, unchecked immigration and rising crime, wanted a change. However, Harris could not say how she would “turn the page”.
When asked on “The View” what she would do differently than Joe Biden, she could not think of a “single thing.” More than any other utterance on the campaign trail, that unprepared and unimaginative response became her albatross.
