The background

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2 — Clinton, the Democratic nominee, lost the 2016 presidential race to Republican Donald Trump in November of that year. A Chicago Tribune opinion piece written by a former member of her digital campaign team marks that anniversary. The writer argues that many of the warnings Clinton gave about Trump have since come true, including his response to the January 6 attack and his tariffs.

The same piece argues that Democrats still struggle to offer voters an explanation for their economic problems, which Trump provides. It also recalls a 2016 speech in which Clinton described a second group of Trump supporters who felt left behind by government.
