Donald Trump's performance in the 2024 election surpassed expectations, with the candidate winning the key battleground states of Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia and picking up larger shares of more diverse segments of the electorate, including Black and Latino male voters. Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, a professor of African American studies at Princeton University, says the blame lies squarely on the Harris campaign, which refused to differentiate itself from unpopular incumbent President Joe Biden. "The problem here is with the leadership of the Democratic Party," adds John Nichols, natio…
When Donald Trump reenters the White House, he will be met with a newly Republican-controlled Senate, consolidating power in the hands of a party now dominated by supporters of Trump. We take a look at the results of down-ballot races for the Senate and House, and the possibilities for congressional opposition to Trump's agenda with John Nichols, The Nation's national affairs correspondent. Nichols notes that losing Democratic Senate candidates missed opportunities to highlight working-class voters and economic issues, likely to their detriment.
While Democratic candidates suffered major losses in this year's U.S. elections, elsewhere on the ballot voters supported liberal positions. In the wake of tightening federal and state restrictions on abortion, historic ballot measures enshrining the right to an abortion passed in seven states, while other initiatives to raise the minimum wage and codify marriage equality also won by wide majorities. We're joined by Chris Melody Fields Figueredo of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center to examine the role of ballot measures, a form of direct democracy, in elections, and why this "powerful tool&#…

Consumer advocate, corporate critic and former presidential candidate Ralph Nader comments on the reelection of Donald Trump and the failures of the Democratic challenge against him. Despite attempts by left-wing segments of the Democratic base to shift the party's messaging toward populist, anti-corporate and progressive policies, says Nader, Democrats "didn't listen." Under Trump, continues Nader, "We're in for huge turmoil."…
Shortly after Donald Trump was announced as the winner of the U.S. presidential election, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to social media to enthusiastically congratulate him. Meanwhile, the Israeli military continued its violent assault on Gaza, killing multiple Palestinians in strikes on apartment buildings and homes. We speak to Palestinian American journalist Rami Khouri about what we know of Trump's pro-Israel policies and how Trump beat Kamala Harris for the presidency. "Trump out-dramatized Harris, and that's how he won," he says.
In the Arab American-majority city of Dearborn, Michigan, Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris by over six percentage points, with third-party candidate Jill Stein capturing nearly one-fifth of the vote. During the primary elections, a majority of Democratic voters in Dearborn selected "uncommitted" over then-presumptive nominee Joe Biden, citing disapproval of the president's handling of Israel's aggression in the Middle East. "Uncommitted" voters continued to press the Harris campaign to shift its Israel policy as the election went on, but were routinely ignored. Democrats "…
Donald Trump has been reelected president of the United States. Ahead of Kamala Harris's expected concession speech, we speak to professors Carol Anderson and Michele Goodwin to discuss Harris's historic campaign — and historic loss. "The Confederacy won," says Anderson, a professor of African American studies at Emory University. "It paints a picture of what Americans are willing to embrace," says Goodwin, a professor of constitutional law at Georgetown and an expert on healthcare law, who warns of the public health dangers of a second Trump administration and discusses…
