Go back and predict a Trump victory? This guy was twenty years ahead of the crowd

"The nonsuburban electorate will decide that the system has failed and start looking around for a strongman to vote for--someone willing to assure them that, once he is elected, the smug bureaucrats, tricky lawyers, overpaid bond salesmen, and postmodernist professors will no longer be calling the shots....One thing that isvery likely tohappen is that the gains made in the past forty years byblack and brown Americans,and by homosexuals, will be wiped out. Jocular contempt for women will come back into fashion....All the resentment which badly educated Americans feel about having their manners dictated to them by college graduates will find an outlet."
