Why Trump Won | Victor Davis Hanson

Victor and John discuss why Donald Trump won the 2024 US election, assessing both his policies and character.

Victor Davis Hanson is the Martin and Illie Anderson Senior Fellow in Residence in Classics and Military History at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is a nationally syndicated columnist and has written many books on ancient and modern warfare. His most recent books are The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation and The Case for Trump: 2024 Edition.

Conversations feature John Anderson, former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, interviewing the world's foremost thought leaders about today's pressing social, cultural and political issues.

John believes proper, robust dialogue is necessary if we are to maintain our social strength and cohesion. As he puts it; "You cannot get good public policy out of a bad public debate."

Love that this channel showcases some of the best people on the sensible right. John Anderson does a great job.

The Hoover Institution should thank their lucky stars for having Victor Davis Hanson on their team.

From the Demoncrats point of view, they only have themselves to blame. Shameful candidate, shameful campaign, shameful policies.

This is the headline, Victor is the billboard. So clear, so concise, so accurate. We are saved or at least given time to breath.

[cheriew]

Yes, I felt it too, and it happened. Hallelujah.

Great analysis of the 2024 US election outcome!!! Victor Davis Hanson has become one of my favorite political commentators. He's rarely seen on mainstream news programs here in the USA, but he's become a formidable force because of "alternative" sources like John Anderson.

About time Australians got on board and send the same message at the next election

VDH is most certainly a bonafide national treasure.

Don't forget voting against the hate, hypocrisy, censorship, and insanity of the wokeists. That's who I was voting against.

[cindywilson]

I appreciate your ideas and humility. Thank you!

[mrsbluesky]

I didn’t KNOW he would win, I just prayed.

[sampotter]

As usual VDH is insightful, articulate, and such a treasure to our nation! Thanks John Anderson for interviewing VDH and taking such an interest in America. - proud deplorable, garbage here clinging to my guns and God! :)

Nobody is a saint especially if they are down here on this Planet!! However he has a heart for doing the things God wants done in this Nation!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💖💖💖

It occurs to me that one of the biggest problems politicians have with the voters is the idea that the elites tell us what to believe, what to do, and who to vote for instead of listening to the citizen’s concerns and developing practical solutions. The voters have spoken. Listening is better than speaking.

[robyncohen]

Thank you VDH...you gave me hope over the last few years❤

[CSUnger]

Well, as you’ve stated elsewhere, enough people showed up and said, “No, we’re not going to do this” .

It’s so clear to me. I knew the second she was announced as the candidate it was over.
