However the material conditions that led to Trump is still there. Inequality is growing and the middle class existence that many Americans thought they were entitled too is becoming a more and more unrealistic dream for many.
On top of that a global pandemic has crashed the economy and the US model of privatised health care, minimal labour right and inadequate social safety net is proving to be a massive failure all while the ossified political establishment is unable and unwilling to pass necessary aid to people.
What will happen next politically in the US? I have a really bad feeling about this. People are going to feel angry, insecure and cheated out of what was rightfully theirs.
