It's been an incredible campaign this time around. I'm a bit of a black sheep as a voter, I voted for Obama twice, I voted Hillary in 2016, Trump in 2020, Trump for the primary, and now again Trump in 2024. Having a multi-ethnic coalition behind him really sealed the deal for him IMO, as well as a coherent platform of deregulation, immigration reform, and putting American workers and businesses first.
Wish I'd bet more in the election markets and crypto, but hindsight is always 20/20 as they say.

Deregulation and immigration reform is inherently at-odds with putting American workers first. Apple didn't send their manufacturing jobs to China because of too many regulations and immigrants in America - they did it for the opposite reason. It happened with automotive manufacturing, it happened with silicon fabrication, and it's going to continue for every consumer good America cannot export competitively.
