This week, Walter and Jeremy discuss how Donald Trump won over Gen Z, Latino, and Blue state urban voters, and how the history of the American South, Latin American populism, and Davy Crockett-style mass politics explain the greatest comeback in American political history.

Each week on What Really Matters, Walter Russell Mead and Jeremy Stern help you understand the news, decide what matters and what doesn’t, and enjoy following the story of America and the world more than you do now.
