In today’s episode, it’s just me, breaking down the striking patterns of recent U.S. presidential elections. We’re looking at Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris, two of the most influential women in American politics, both of whom went head to head with Donald Trump; a businessman turned politician. We’ll dig into how, despite their political expertise, neither could secure a victory against Trump, a career outsider whose appeal brought fresh questions about what kind of experience Americans value in a leader.
Then, I’ll take a closer look at Trump’s pandemic response and how it ultimately led to his loss to Joe Biden in 2020. This moment was a major turning point in how voters saw Trump’s presidency, setting Biden and Harris up as the “fixers.” But have they delivered? We’ll unpack the Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the recent hurricane devastation in Florida and the strong reactions from many Republican-leaning communities who feared they’d be overlooked for federal aid. And yes, we’ll tackle the rumours that FEMA aid was prioritized for immigrants relocated by Texas; stirring up even more controversy and fueling mistrust in federal support.
To wrap up, I’ll switch gears with a review of Lazareth movie on Hulu by the director Alec Tibaldi
