On Tuesday, Donald Trump became 45th president-elect of the United States. Asked to comment on the stunning upset victory, political scientist Dr. Armando Steinko told Sputnik that like Brexit before it, Trump’s victory was the logical outcome of a situation where elites refused to recognize political and economic realities in their countries.
Speaking to Sputnik Mundo about what US politicians and most of the mainstream media had said would be an impossible victory, Steinko explained that actually, Trump’s win “is similar to what happened in the United Kingdom with Brexit.”
In each case, he noted, “the political and economic elite did not perceive or did not want to acknowledge the chasm between the actual situation in the country and the ‘official’ one.”
