He figured out how to appeal to a larger group of fringe voters and those who otherwise would not typically vote at all. In his case, the uneducated conservatives because they hate all politicians and 'he's an outsider, he's one of us' and of course, the racist rednecks because he said all the right things to get them good and wound up.(March 28, 2018 at 7:35 pm)johan Wrote: Like it or not, he's doing a 2nd term.

No way dude. Only reason he won was bc he was up against Hilary.
And here's the thing. Nearly all of those people still absolutely love him. He could raise their taxes and they would still love them. He take away their guns and they'd still love him. He could show up at their house, shoot their favorite dog in the head then skull fuck the bullet hole right in front of them and they'd still love him. In each and every case they'd find a way place the blame on Hilary or Obama or some other democrat. But they wouldn't blame their boy because he's their boy. And those mother fuckers are going to elect him again unless the democrats can figure out how to pull off some sort of absolute miracle which I honestly doubt they can do.
Because despite having lots of well paid highly educated people at their upper levels, political parties tend to not learn from the past very well. So even though they were wrong to believe all the poles and assume they had the election in the bag last time, they'll do the exact same thing next time. 'Oh everyone hates trump, we've got this in the bag, we pick any candidate we want and we'll walk away with it'. That's exactly what they'll say. Then the racists and rednecks will show up again in force and we'll have 4 more years of the fat man. Get used to it.
