What is happening in USA?

-and then he lost the pop vote by a greater margin than any other president in history. 

So, no, he's a shit candidate and a shit campaigner with a tiny cohort of shit supporters aided and abetted by domestic voter disenfranchisement and a hostile foreign power who wanted to watch us burn...the rest, lied about their embarrassing vote... but ambulated, eventually, to the idea that he was better than hitlery and left it at that.

The failure of identity politics is made more clear in trumps win over the republican establishment than it is in trumps historic loss with voters.  He was everything they were supposed to hate.

Nobody who becomes president is a shit campaigner. That's ridiculous. Some people, when they don't like someones politics will say that they are bad at everything automatically. Totally silly to say Trump is a shit campaigner. Its the same as when people always predict their side will win no matter what.

How can you call it a failure of identity politics when Trump became president? That's not a failure. Its the opposite of failure.

Calling it a historic loss is totally silly, because only 4 presidents have won when losing the popular vote, two of them deep in the past, when the population was much smaller. So thats statistically irrelevant.
