Its downplayed but the Tr7mp election which was possible even likely once he got the nomination, was the complete implosion of the Republican party and inability of any republican candidate except Trump to remotely connect to the needs of the people.
Two issues particularly, immigration which yes plays to darker impulses, but also represents law and order to the average conservative. And free trade, endlessly flogged by so called conservatives and was increasingly exposed as more shilling for powerful interests and more benefit to them than the average american.
Even though they lost the election Dems had their shit together much more compared to Republicans, and as much as we say we want disruption in presideantial politics, we see what happens when one half of the system goes completely limp.
