ALT Head of Politics and Immigration at the University of Southampton Professor Pia Riggirozzi, a woman with long curly hair wearing a blouse and suit jacket alongside a quote reading: "Trump has pledged to revive and expand restrictive immigration policies from his first term. "Vowing an unprecedented deportation campaign, he has threatened to deploy military and diplomatic resources to expel undocumented immigrants and has referred to migrants in dehumanizing terms, likening them to a threat to the nation’s moral well-being and safety. "There has been an open rhetorical framing of undocumented immigrants as a moral and criminal threat, especially to ‘suburban women’ - which has appealed to some Latino and (white) women voters through a mix of fear-mongering and a narrative of security."

Dr Emilia Belknap says: "Trump’s victory is the culmination of the populous realignment found in 2016, with not only the white working class and evangelicals sticking by him but also adding young male voters and the Black and Hispanic working class. The Democratic advantage in the early vote was significantly reduced, with fewer Democrats voting by mail and more Republican voters attending early voting. As ever, the glass ceiling remains intact in the USA, and women’s reproductive rights remain at risk."

ALT Professor Pia Riggirozzi, Head of Politics and International Relations, a woman with long curly brown hair wearing a suit jacket and blouse, alongside a quote reading: "The outcome of this election will have far-reaching impacts on global health and reproductive rights, not only in the US but internationally. "It will consolidate and legitimise a window of opportunity for conservative and right wing leaders across the world, directly aligning with the values of religious conservatives, who are increasingly influential in international health. "We are likely to see further opposition to expanded reproductive freedoms and a de-funding and undermining of organisations that work with women on gender and sexual and reproductive rights, such as UNFPA and others."
