Why Trump has won
November 9, 2016 at 9:15 am
I'll give you a few reasons as to why. You know see when you have a candidate who isn't taken seriously like Trump was they have a huge advantage.
Pretty much they gave that guy so much screen time on TV to were it was free advertisement for him and people kept talking about. Okay that's one
reason he won the other is you know the DCCC and the DNC kinda cheated out a perfectly good Vermont senator from running. Then you add onto the fact
millennials were not that gullible H.A. goodman we have bullshit detectors. There is many reasons as to why Trump won and i have to say i am
not even surprised that he won.

Trump won because of a large amount of bigots voting. Just like with Brexit.

The bit about the media is certainly right. He got his presence simply by playing the horror clown from a freakshow.
The part about the democrats not being able to present a character who's popularity level wasn't below the subway tunnels is also right.
As for the large amount of bigots, radicals are always more likely to vote than moderates. Even more so when the moderates aren't presented with a desirable choice. That's why I said a few days ago that there's a possibility of Trump winning. I haven't seen the turnout numbers as of yet, but if they're as low as the always have been during the last decades, you got your answer. The presidential election is obviously a minority show with a lot of people not caring one way or the other.

Trump got one thing right. Neither party understood the degree to which people feel alienated from and contemptuous of Washington and 'business as usual'. He and Sanders tapped into that anger, though in very different ways.

I don't know that they are all bigots but Drumpf fans expect that there are magical solutions to their problems.
'Murricans have had smoke blown up their asses for so long that they really think they are special. Drumpf promises to "bring back jobs" and they say "YEAH!" instead of "How?" Or "which jobs?" They aren't going to assemble cell phones for $1 an hour. Automation and technology will continue to displace blue collar workers and they will face the same dilemma they face now. Acquire new skills which are of value in the marketplace or watch the world pass you by.

Because my fellow Americans want to preserve the hate filled backass ways we grew up on >.>

The people of America have demonstrated that a simple majority of us is really that stupid.
Our household recognized what a buffoon Trump is at the first debate. We're all just shaking our heads in disbelief, at this point. Shee-IT this is disappointing.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Trump has won the election because the voters felt like he wasn't part of the establishment and wasn't your run of the mill politician - they think he will bring around real change. Whether that actually happens or not, we'll just have to wait and see.
