This article, published in November 2024, analyses how Donald Trump won the 2024 US Presidential Election. The author, John Polonis, argues that the election was not a fluke, as some may claim, but a reflection of a changing America. He outlines how Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate, made several strategic errors, including failing to clearly articulate her vision for the country and alienating key voting demographics, particularly young men. He attributes Trump's success to his ability to tap into Americans' nostalgia for a simpler time and his emphasis on practical issues, such as economic concerns and the need for tax cuts. Polonis concludes that Trump's victory signifies a new era in American politics, one that will be defined by his conservative agenda and the potential for a diminished role of government oversight.
