Trump 2.0 will do at least two things for the world. It would further hasten the internal decay of the US by aggravating racial tensions and emboldening right-wing excesses. Two, Trump’s America First ultra-

This sounds more like saying that if US voters were happy to be seduced by their worst selves, they deserve what they get.
