    The electorate has clearly shifted right. That’s why this time the right side won, whereas last time the left side won. I hope (but am by no means certain ) that a high quality left-wing candidate can help to shift the electorate back to the left.

      Trump got the same number of votes, the dem’s base just didn’t turn out because they abandoned them to chase after “moderate republicans”, again.

      The electorate didn’t move right, the democrats did.
