Summary

Donald Trump’s return has provoked days of soul searching among Democratic voters. But the pollster with one of the most accurate predictions of the outcome, James Johnson of JL Partners, has asked George Osborne and Ed Balls to shake off the gloom and consider any positives. Is there a silver lining in a second Trump presidency? George has some ideas, while Ed is struggling… 


Votebeat editorial director Jessica Huseman asks: does the world see the US as an international example of democracy any more? Did it ever? 


And Susanna Reid from Good Morning Britain has rung in to ask what Trump’s re-election tells us about what voters truly want.


Plus: with Kemi Badenoch now leading the Tories, George and Ed answer the question: what does the shadow cabinet …actually do?
