We’ve just witnessed the greatest comeback in American political history, and pundits are, as usual, busily explaining why Donald Trump was re-elected as president. The majority of the talking heads, though, are wrong in their analysis. Issues like the economy, abortion, immigration, race relations, foreign policy, technology, education, environmentalism, etc, will be cited – with different experts emphasising this or that issue as the key to the success of Trump’s campaign, while the core reason he has regained the White House will be mentioned in passing, if at all, but not given the importance it deserves.
