Could it be that maybe, just maybe, people were unhappy with the direction their country was taking?

The Left won the culture wars. They had it all. But they were not gracious in their victory. Things were rammed down people's throats that they disagreed with, and any attempt at debate was shouted down as bigotry. Eventually, things went far enough that enough voters said it was time for a change.

It's happening all over the Western world.

The people of The West have value. Western culture has value. What The West has built has value.
