WASHINGTON — One takeaway from the 2020 election is that while President Donald Trump lost, Trumpism did not.
Many voters offered a consistent refrain about Trump: They liked his policies but could not abide his anger-fueled personality, his constant use of Twitter as a weapon and the way he ridiculed anyone who dared disagree with him.
Democrat Joe Biden’s call for a return to decency, and his promise to be a president for all Americans and not just the base of his party, was an important part of his formula.
