  • How Trump Won the White House: Collusion, Collapse, and Chaos (Ep 3)
    Sep 30 2024
    A campaign trail like no other. Both sides experienced ups and downs aplenty. As August began Hillary was soaring in the polls whilst Trump’s campaign was bogged down by accusations of Russian collusion. Fast forward six weeks and the polls were narrowing. Trump had a new campaign team, his speeches were clearer and more coherent, and he was frenetically flying around the country. Meanwhile, Hillary had collapsed at the 9/11 memorial and called half of Trump’s supporters ‘deplorables’. Then came the October Surprises. After the release of the Access Hollywood tapes it seemed like it was all over for Trump, but then James Comey announced that the FBI were again looking at the Clinton email case, meaning America careered towards election day with Trump gaining on Hillary. In the third episode of The Rest is Politics: US’ series on How Donald Trump Won the White House, listen as Anthony and Katty look at the campaign trail and the way the momentum continually swung from one candidate to another.

  • How Trump Won the White House: Did Obama Create Trump? (Ep 2)
    Sep 23 2024
    Make America Great Again. This Trump message has become widely recognisable since 2015, when he began articulating his protectionist, anti-Washington, nationalistic, America First message. Trump wanted to appeal to the ‘forgotten men and women’ of America, those who had been left behind by globalisation. But he could not do this alone, so what team did Trump establish around him? How did they help him formulate his strategy? And how was Hillary Clinton shaping up to challenge him after her bruising primary against Bernie Sanders? In the second episode of The Rest is Politics: US’ series on How Donald Trump Won the White House, listen as Anthony and Katty look at how both sides of the race prepared for the campaign trail. What was their strategy, who were their teams, and what message were they taking into the race?
