1A - The New Political Landscape Of The United States

The results are in. Donald Trump will be 47th president of the United States come January.

He'll return to the White House as the first president who's been re-elected after being impeached during his first term. He's also been convicted of a felony since his win in 2016.

Trump won several key swing states this election, outperforming how the pollsters and pundits projected he'd do in America's electoral battlegrounds.

We discuss what the U.S. looks like now that the election is over, and what the results tell us about who we are.

The Gist - Trump II, Day 1

Donald Trump has won, his coalition is actually more diverse than any Republican since Nixon, and his share of the popular vote could be larger than any Republican since George H.W. Bush in 1988—it was certainly the largest in 20 years. Today, Mike has a critique of the media, hope for the republic, and a pair of interviews. First, he talks with not-Trump-nor-Harris voters Kemele Foster, of The 5th Column podcast, and Coleman Hughes, author of The End of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America, and we get to hear them react to Trump's victory in the moment. Then Peter Meijer, one of ten House Republicans to vote to impeach Donald Trump, says he stands by his vote, but understands Trump's success.


Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara

The Indicator from Planet Money - America’s economy is the envy of the world. Will it stay that way?

Donald Trump's victory in this year's election had a lot to do with how many Americans feel about the US economy (surprise: not good). But Simon Rabinovitch, US Economics Editor for The Economist, argues that, despite the turmoil of the past few years, America's economy remains the envy of the world. Today on the show, Simon explains why that is, but also why he believes a Trump presidency puts America's 'economic exceptionalism' at risk.
