Kingsley Moghalu, a former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has proposed reasons why former President Donald Trump is likely to have defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in the presidential election on November 5.

Americans were not yet prepared for a female president, according to Moghalu.

Trump defeated Harris on Wednesday to become the 47th President of the United States, according to ZINGTIE.

The former deputy governor also mentioned how Americans view the economy, stating that inflation was high for the most of the campaign season.

Moghalu clarified in a post on his X Twitter on Wednesday that the election demonstrated that, in spite of Trump’s contentious nature and legal history, the majority of Americans still supported him.

His words: “Why Harris lost to Trump:

“1. Sexism (Americans are not ready yet for a female President)

“2. (Perceptions of) the Economy – Inflation that’s coming down but was high for most of the campaign season.

“3. Harris could not overcome the skepticism of the white working class.

“Many reasons for this, including both racism and sexism. Obama overcame racism, but his mother was white and the timing was propitious.

“4. That Trump’s victory was sweeping, encompassing virtually all the “battleground” states including the “blue wall” of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin says something: despite Trump’s controversial legal record and personality, Americans broadly wanted him. They are not as enamored of the “woke” liberal agenda as the left-leaning media would have us believe. They want a return to more “traditional” values, even if Trump was not necessarily the perfect exemplar of those values.

“Traditional values” cloaks many things, some good and some bad. Harris ran an excellent campaign (in a short 100 days!), worked hard, and organized well. She simply could not overcome the factors (good and bad) that drove support for Trump.”
