Imo there are a whole host of smaller granular events like the ones you've listed (or dismissed?). They add up and have an impact.
But you're right that there is a deeper structural current here which you've summed up neatly in earlier posts.
Where I think there is a real challenge for the future is how do you solve the economic issues like cost of living and wage stagnation while securing $bn in election funding and without being painted as totalitarian communists by the media?

Explaining the loss away due to dumb voters, bias, Silicon valley, Joe Rogan, social media, Russian interference etc, gets you nowhere.
Somewhere along the way, someone needs to keep up with an electorally popular alternative to both the status quo and nativist populism. Or we keep getting Trump and his equivalents.
