I'm not wondering how they lost - its very straight forward.
I predicted the brexit vote and this ghastly outcome. The only one I got wrong was Scottish independence.
Its very straight forward because the industrialised nations have not been able to deal with the social impact of technology on the employment market. Unless the governments of industrialised nations can conjure some role for the low ranking uneducated masses then there is a democratic inevitability about these results.
However I am very pessimistic about the future of your country.
Trump wont be able to "bring back the jobs", the fact that he is rich and a successful businessman will end up being his Achilles heel. He wont be able to turn the clock back to the 1950's.
Then when America is not great again I think the real problems will start - he does not respect a free press or the democratic process, he has threatened to put his opponents in jail, and he thinks leadership is about stamping your feet and crying cheat until you get your own way.
I have another unfortunate prediction - Trump will not allow the interwebs to turn on him like it did with Hillary, and all measures will be on the table.
Mr Assange et al should remember that sometimes you get what you wish for.
