The post provides a clear overview of the 2024 US elections and the two main political parties, but it could benefit from more detail on the implications of the elections and a broader discussion of candidates.
It's like turkeys voting for Christmas.I will never understand the USA.
I thought Americans had learnt but alas.I am a bit shocked that people are shocked about Trump looking like winning. I was completely shocked in 2016. But not this time. It seemed very much on the cards.

Trump had a worse approval rating than Harris when the votes were cast yesterday. People voted for Trump not because they liked him, but because they thought he would be better for some reason. Those reasons are what we need to think about. My number one culprit is the economy and inflation. The west is so used to low inflation that when inflation that resembles emerging market happens, they are traumatised.All in all though, Trump and the Republicans have battered the Democrats. It has been a resounding victory.
