## Summary

An opinion essay argues that US voters are tiring of the divisive, combative politics associated with Donald Trump after a decade in which he reshaped the Republican Party. It points to Texas Democrat James Talarico’s election-night appeal for less hostility as a sign that voters may now favour political unity and expect leaders to deliver on their promises.

Trump’s insults and unscripted rally performances once resonated with voters who felt ignored by political elites, and his MAGA movement channelled their anger over immigration and trade. The essay says his return to power in 2024 appeared unstoppable, but frustration grew over inflation, fuel prices and his decision to attack Iran, which the writer sees as a broken promise to avoid foreign wars. The supplied article text ends mid-sentence, so it does not show the full argument about whether US politics can return to its earlier form.
