With Donald Trump seeking to secure a second term as president in the American presidential election in November this lecture will assess how America has evolved politically, economically and socially in the Trump era.

We will consider the people, groups and movements that have been to the fore in shaping America during this time and assess what roll and influence they can have in the presidential election campaign and election in 2024.
