Yes it could. It wasn't unthinkable at all. In fact the entire campaign of the current president was based on the fact that the USA is not as great as it once was, that it is in need to be made great again. So yes, this sentiment was very much spread all around before the pandemic, with widely different ideas on how to correct the trajectory but that's beside the point.
- hyperman1 6y agoYes and no. The current US president has a completely different communication style than the 'serious'-tone mainstream media. You're correct that he's become president because of it. And people were aware and complaining, but not doing much themselves. That's what changing now.
