How Trump Won, Again
Briefly

"When Donald J. Trump won the presidency eight years ago, it was easy to cast his victory as a narrow one or even dismiss it as a fluke. Not this time. Despite Jan. 6, the end of Roe v. Wade and a felony conviction, Mr. Trump won a clear victory."
"According to our estimates, Mr. Trump is also on track to become the first Republican to win the national popular vote in 20 years. At the same time, the scope of his victory shouldn't be overstated. This was no landslide."
"Despite his victory, most voters found Mr. Trump to be an unappealing candidate. CNN's exit poll found that just 44 percent of voters had a favorable view of him, compared with 54 percent who had an unfavorable view."
"Mr. Trump's victory may say more about the Democrats and the public's desire for change than it does about the president-elect himself."
