In this podcast, Dr. Veltmeyer discusses the history of electoral-altering political realignments in the United States, including the post-Civil War period of Republican dominance to the New Deal Democratic majority forged by Franklin Roosevelt to the post-1968 swing back to Republicanism under Nixon and Reagan. He sees a new, different realignment under Donald Trump which is populist and nationalist in makeup and which is scrambling historical voting patterns among traditionally-critical voter blocs.
