For any commentary or thoughts, I simply refer you my November 9, 2016 blog post from 8 years ago. It all still applies and is nearly the same event, just with a 4 year intermission…
A lot may have happened in the past 8 years, but also nothing much has actually changed either: one party still endlessly does identity politics and will “be right” all the way to the grave, and the other party understands that majorities in this country have always voted with their wallets.
Rinse. Repeat. /shrug
