LOS ANGELES, California — Breitbart News senior editor-at-large and in-house counsel Joel B. Pollak told the audience at the main stage at PolitiCon Sunday that Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election because of three words: trade, immigration, and Islam.
Moderator Mike Allen of Axios asked Pollak and each of the panelists — former Trump campaign communications director Jason Miller; veteran Democratic political strategist James Carville; Weekly Standard founder Bill Kristol; and liberal CNN contributor Paul Begala — to summarize Trump’s win in a single sentence.
Kristol said: The Republican primary electorate especially — to some degree the general electorate — were more susceptible to an authoritarian demagogue than I thought they would be.” The largely liberal audience applauded.
Pollak said: “Trade, immigration, and terrorism.” There were cheers, and a few boos.
