Kamala Harris is a bad politician and the Biden administration obviously sucked so it's not such a surprise that Trump won. If there's a larger theme it's that people in the US---probably all over the western world too--are done with the "establishment" people and their institutions. That's a continuation of the rejection of the RINO republicans and reformulation of the GOP into a populist working class party--basically some version of FDR democrats. The democrats became republicans too. It's bizarre partisan people don't notice those changes.
The current establishment is "left wing" which just means they advocate social engineering policies because people called gay kids "fags" in 1985, buy they are still all about stacking as much wealth as possible.
The establishment is rich people, corporations, and associated institutions like universities. The American lefties want to adopt a Europeanish style system with heavy handed central planning. The average person would be living like a hamster in a habitrail while an inbred parasite class "manages" society and infrastructure that slowly falls apart. That top down central planning is a follow on to the failing neoliberal financial/corporate system. It's really an attempt to cement the current social/economic order in place forever.
Many Americans apparently don't want that outcome. Many people realize the top down plans of the past several years were utter failures. The common core education system pushed by people like Bill Gates and Obama is an utter failure. Obamacare sucks ass. The states in the US that are lefty dominated are losing residents at a rapid rate and the average IQ in states like California is plunging as the population mix changes.
The problems in America run pretty deep and I don't think an election or any resulting institutional reform will fix a single thing. Its really a waste of time to scheme over "policies" and "system" fixes. Systemic fixes aren't really possible. That's the neoliberal system in a nutshell--a big paper, now electronic monster that can be tweaked and poked and prodded to produce some desired outcome. Nope. Not gonna work.
We'll probably get 4 more years of establishment driven left wing nutjob craziness. I'm sure dumb fuck shitlibs think the world ended for the second time. They'll probably rededicate themselves to wrecking cities they control and crapping up corporate life even more than it already is.
Americans invest way too much time and energy in national politics and national media. They should bring their focus home and even work on their own self instead of even thinking about nonsense like politics, the NFL, national media, the stock market, etc...
