Written off four years ago after his loss to Joe Biden, Donald Trump has come back with a thumping majority
-
The Second Innings US President-elect Donald Trump speaks at the Palm Beach County Convention Centre during an election night watch party on November 6, 2024, in West Palm Beach, Florida
DONALD J. Trump is going to be the 47th president of the United States. A historic win for several reasons—this is the first time since 1892 that a US president has served two non-consecutive terms. Trump is the oldest person to be elected president, the first president to be convicted of a felony and the only president to have faced impeachment proceedings twice. Above all, this win is historic because of the scale and impact of his political comeback. Written off four years ago after his loss to Joe Biden, Trump bided his time and came back with a staggering majority, clinching the House, Senate and the presidency for the Republicans. He also won the popular vote—cementing himself as a populist who united Americans. “They (voters) came from all quarters. Union, non-union, African American, Hispanic American,” Trump announced to a roaring crowd after his win. “We had everybody, and it was beautiful.” Clearly, Trump has painted the town red!
The Democrats probably expected a defeat in the final hours leading to the election, as several polls predicted a narrow margin between Trump and incumbent Vice President Kamala Devi Harris. But they didn’t (and couldn’t) visualize a landslide victory and the overturning of several swing states like Michigan, Pennsylvania and Arizona in Trump’s favor. Several counties that were typically blue were overturned, too—marking the demolition of the Democratic Party in every way possible. This leads me to ask—how did we get here?
An Election Fought by—and Won by—Men

Fully-loaded Magazine
It was in 2012 when I walked into the Delhi Outlook Magazine office and realised that this was a place that was throbbing with a rare energy that newsrooms are known for and I knew I'd always keep that intact. To be on the other side of a media organisation is a difficult road to navigate and yet, it comes with a unique fulfilment that I have felt often as I have defended the editorial freedom and integrity as the CEO.

Diary
Over 30 years ago, when I joined the weekly Sunday as a reporter, everyone around me said it was a big mistake. 'The age of magazines is over' was the chorus. Sunday Magazine did close down for various reasons but the age of magazines was not over. Evidently, it still isn't as this special issue of '30 Years of Outlook' proves. There is something exciting, unpredictable and complete about a magazine. The thrill of sitting down with a new edition of a magazine, holding the cover to the light to examine its design, opening the first pages, to look at the contents to savour what's inside, then to flip the pages to give a look-see at the various stories and articles, stopping at some stunning photograph or an illustration, and then finally zeroing in on which article to start reading from is a unique experience.

To Men Who Write Women Off
“Women feel differently, so they talk differently, have a different relationship to words and to ideas of which these are the vehicle. Asserting difference at the same time as demanding equal rights is obviously the position to take. We must impose female cultural models, which have a universal value in a world where ‘universal’ equals ‘masculine’. In other words, cultivate marginality until the margin takes up half the page. We have a long way to go...”—Marina Yaguello, French linguist
