I would like to think that J D Vance might be the Republican presidential candidate in the election following this one: ie someone from the 'deplorables' who made good, embraced religious faith, has realised that being successful and making money is not all there is to life and who has kept touch with his roots.

If I am right he will then present a formidable challenge to the corrupt, elitist Democratic Party.

If I were an American, I would vote for Trump this time. But 'Trumpism' is not the answer.

Your analysis of the US social and political scene is uncannily like ours here in the UK. The chasm between ordinary people and our Leftwing political middle class is now unbridgeable.

It is the consequence, I think, of the loss of God and the void being filled by cultural 'Marxists' taking over our schools and universities (and the Christian Church being asleep on its watch.)
