How did Donald J. Trump get elected? When Trump made that short trip down the escalator in 2015, the media, the corrupt career professional politicians of the American uniparty political machine thought it was a joke, a publicity stunt, and, in short, they did not take him seriously. What they did do was severely underestimate their yet unrecognized enemy. Throughout the election cycle, the Left and their complicit RINOs did not fathom the concept of Trump ever getting elected. In their minds, it was a foregone conclusion that Hillary Clinton was going to be the 45th President.
The members of the Washington Beltway Bubble corrupt uniparty political machine could not fathom that the silent, constitution-loving, American patriots could embrace the Make America Great Again (MAGA) approach of Donald Trump. Donald J. Trump and his MAGA minions were a Pearl Harbor type sneak attack on the corrupt Republicans and Marxist Democrat uniparty establishment, and it was just as devastating to the corruptocrats of that establishment. Hillary Clinton got to trash her election night hotel room because of her and her Marxist Democrat minions’ arrogant underestimation of Donald Trump and American patriots. The Dimms just didn’t cheat good enough in 2016. That is how our 45th President got elected.
President Trump was so successful because neither the political corruptocrats nor the bureaucratic infrastructure corruptocrats were prepared to deal with anyone who was not an establishment politician. They landed Donald Trump, a businessman who used business practices, rather than same old, same old tried and true political tactics, and thus totally upset the predictable political applecart. In spite of all the personal attacks, the constant obstructions by the bureaucrats, and his RINO enemies within his own party, Donald Trump succeeded in making America great again much to the appreciation of true American patriots.
