Please note that in this, and accompanying stories, we will only be looking at only the contest between Trump and Harris , not the previous race between incumbent Joe Biden and the 47 th President-Elect, nor the fallout from that assassination attempt, which many say actually decided the contest months ago.
Among the many angles and paths that these discussions will take, one really stood out to us, it spoke to us.
Kamala Harris and the Democrats have dominated political ad spends; they have leveraged the massive tech forces of Google and Meta far more than their Republican opponent; they have courted and curried celebrity endorsement; and they have canvassed city and society, demographic and denomination, nation and notions. They have been a collective. And they have lost. They have lost the White House, they have lost the Senate, and look poised to lose the House of Representatives.
Donald Trump went on podcasts. A lot of podcasts. He went on popular podcasts, populist podcasts, and puerile podcasts; the three often overlapping each other in a venn diagram. He did ads and roadshows and rallies, sure, but what we'll remember from this contest with Harris are the podcasts. Donald Trump has been a one-man brand. And Donald Trump has won. Donald Trump has won the White House . Donald Trump has won the Senate. And Donald Trump is likely to win the House of Representatives.
