Episode 19: Unpacking the US Election
Nathan is joined by guest host Taylor to break down Donald Trump’s election victory and the aftermath.
Where did the Democrats’ message falter? Why was Trump such an effective messenger? We analyze exit polls and the factors that made this election an uphill battle for the Dems, from inflation and immigration concerns to the Ukraine war.
We also explore how each campaign interacted with different types of media and why this will be crucial going forward.
Looking ahead, we discuss how Trump might approach Israel and Ukraine policy, and what legislation he’s likely to push. Nathan voices his concerns about Trump’s most troubling impulses, which were on full display during the campaign, and laments the Democrats’ failure to resonate with a wider audience.
We wrap up by emphasising the importance of getting money out of politics to build a better system for all Americans, and that if this election has triggered something in you, to get activated and do something constructive in your own communties!
