Reminding us that Obamagate was invented in January of 2017 to blunt an oncoming investigation of Mike Flynn, CNN’s Daniel Dale looks at Trump lies yet again, because they will not ever let up.

Downfall does not offer a prediction or wishful thinking—it affirms a certainty. Veteran political scientist Andrew Hacker’s vast array of evidence points to the conclusion that Donald Trump will not be reelected, regardless of which Democratic candidate opposes him. Based on a close analysis of midterm and special elections, Hacker has found that Trump’s so-called base is shrinking and that a strong majority of voting Americans want Trump out of office.
Alongside comments from Republican Party members on why they stand with their party, Hacker autopsies their most steadfast viewpoints to illustrate from where these opinions stem and why Trump supporters provide him with votes. This includes an examination of Republican positions on:
- Gun control
- Abortion and women’s rights
- Sexism and gender disparities
- Racism and affirmative action
- LGBTQ rights
- Climate Change
- And more
Both a look back at the years since Trump’s election and a glimpse into what lies ahead for politics, Downfall provides an optimistic outlook that the most divisive leader in the US’s history will join the ranks of one-term presidents.
