"Why Trump Won" And Other Stories

I ran across this video put on YouTube by the user PragerU.  It also was discussed on Kel the Red Fox Blogger's BlogTalkRadio show.  The speaker is former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who explains the difference between people who can live anywhere and people who do not have this option.  You could even call them, respectively, the globalists and the nationalists.



You can also watch the video directly on YouTube.
