The Trump comeback

 Josh Hammer:

In a just world, Donald Trump would have won the Nobel Peace Prize for securing the historic Abraham Accords peace agreements of 2020. So too, in a just world, would A-list Hollywood studios now be bidding for the rights to produce the film adaptation of the single greatest comeback story in American history: Donald Trump, the once and future president.

Trump’s electoral landslide this week is one for the history books. His myriad foes illegitimately spied on his 2016 campaign. They fabricated a “Russia collusion” narrative out of whole cloth, then spent years “investigating” it. They impeached him twice. They prosecuted him across four separate jurisdictions, 91 criminal counts in total. They have tried to humiliate him, bankrupt him and incarcerate him. Assassins have tried to kill him — twice.

They have failed — repeatedly and catastrophically. Trump has solidified his status as the most consequential American political figure since Ronald Reagan. He has become the first Republican presidential candidate to win the national popular vote since George W. Bush in 2004. He has scrambled America’s political coalitions for a generation or more, expanding beyond his white working-class base to reach the full tapestry of modern American life.

And he has done it all despite the impassioned opposition and scorn of ruling elites from sea to shining sea. Never again will Grover Cleveland, that venerable 19th-century “Bourbon Democrat,” be the sole answer to the trivia question, “Which president has served two nonconsecutive terms?” We can now add the maestro of Mar-a-Lago to the list. It is a mesmerizing, astonishing tale.
