Summary

The 2024 presidential race is over, but experts have just begun analyzing how and why former President Trump was able to gain so much ground in key voter demographics. The now President Elect was able to turn out young men and black men at historic rates, bringing him victories in the "Blue Wall" states as well as North Carolina and Georgia. With the White House secured, the Senate, and potentially the House of Representatives, what does the future hold for the next Trump presidency? Former Special Assistant to President Elect Trump Marc Lotter joins the Rundown to discuss what campaign strategies led to the Election Day win, what he expects over the next four years, and analyzes the shift in Republican voters. This election cycle has been anything but normal, and many pundits expected it to take all week to see results. Yet, as the evening went on, it became clear that former President Donald Trump would return to the White House in January. Former advisor to President Bill Clinton and Chairman of the Harris Poll, Mark Penn, joins the Rundown to react to Trump's "return from oblivion." Plus, commentary from FOX News contributor and host of the Jason In The House podcast, Jason Chaffetz. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
