Blame the Elites for the Trump Phenomenon. A Debate
Description
Surprising pundits, pollsters, and the political establishment, Donald Trump amassed a large base of voters to win both the Republican nomination and the presidency in 2016. What accounted for his unexpected rise? Some argue that Trump's support reflected an uninformed populism and the misplaced anger of a large swath of the American people. But others argue that it arose from the failure of elites to empathize with their struggles and craft effective policies to improve their lives. Should the elites be blamed for the Trump phenomenon?
