Will Trump be sentenced for any of his felonies?: Donald Trump's legal jeopardy is complex. While some investigations may conclude, others remain open, making any definitive prediction about future sentencing difficult. The Department of Justice's policy regarding indicting a sitting president also plays a significant role.
What does this result say about American society?: The result reflects deep societal divisions, particularly regarding race and gender. Kamala Harris's candidacy highlights the barriers faced by women and minorities in American politics.
What is the truth behind Project 2025 and it being put in place?: Project 2025 is a policy initiative developed by the Heritage Foundation, with input from Trump's former administration officials. While Trump initially distanced himself, right-wing figures now actively promote it.
Are pollsters a redundant entity after getting it so wrong, again?: Pollsters need significant improvement. Their underestimation of Trump's support, especially among Latinos, highlights the need for substantial changes in methodology and analysis.
Do you think Hollywood’s elite helped or hindered the resulting outcome for Harris?: Hollywood's influence was likely negligible. Both Democrats and Republicans utilize celebrity endorsements, so its impact on the election outcome is questionable.
