Here are the reasons Trump won:
1. The hated and distrusted media attacked him relentlessly.
2. Hillary was a corrupt criminal and a pathological liar.
3. He wasn't an elitist politician, he spoke like us and acted like us.
4. He didn't give a rats ass about political correctness.
5. He loves this country.
6. He is a leader.
Here are the real reasons Trump won.
1. Hillary was an awful candidate.
2. Too many people voted for third party losers because the media told them Hillary had this.
3. We have too many stupid people who think that Trump was a "leader" because he had a reality TV show. You might as well call Honey Boo-Boo a "leader".
4. He happily played on the racism, homophobia and misogyny of this country, because actually discussing real solutions is too complicated for people who watch Honey Boo-boo.
5. The media didn't call him out on his bullshit early on because he was good for ratings. By the time they did, the damage was done.
The winning Trump issue (that no other candidate had) was the immigration problem. Second on the list was Commie Care--an issue that ushered in mid-term sweeps for the Republicans.
The Democrats were fooled. They thought that people liked their left-wing issues like forcing girls in school to take showers and dress with boys. But people didn't like their issues--they liked Obama. The left simply pushed too hard and too fast.
There you go. That single point, about boys in girls bathrooms, is indicative of how this election was won. It was won through the manipulation of public opinion by some new media masters combined with old school fear mongering, even reaching into Phyllis Schlafly's bag of tricks.
