I am not sure people understand how big this thing is. I am not sure people understand how big Trump’s victory was. Donald Trump didn’t just beat Hillary. He beat everybody. It’s the damnedest thing I’ve ever seen, but there is an underlying theme and message to it all. We have just witnessed another American Revolution. This was a total repudiation by the people – and not just of Hillary.
Trump beat Hillary, sure.
He also beat obama.
He beat the pollsters.
He beat the legacy media.
He beat Entertainment Tonight and Access Hollywood.
He beat the DNC.
He beat Hollywood celebrities.
He beat Jon Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen.
He beat Donna Brazile. That’s just for starters.
He also beat the GOP establishment.
He beat the Bush’s.
He beat Lindsey Graham.
Trump has ended the era of the Bush’s and the Clinton’s. Both dynasties opposed him. Soon he will begin to dismantle the damage Barack Obama has done to this country.
With Republicans maintaining control of the House and Senate, President-elect Trump would be in a position to repeal large parts of Obama’s legislative agenda, repeal his executive orders with a stroke of a pen, and install conservative Supreme Court justices.
It is a tall order.
Trump beat Trump too. People voted for him despite all of his stupid remarks. People were starving for change- for an outsider. They wanted change so badly they were able to overlook the dumb things he’s said and done. Trump even got more of the black and latino vote than did Romney. That’s astonishing.
In the end Trump became the symbol of hope to everyone who voted for him. He made them feel that they have a voice in the country again and that just maybe someone cares about them and not just Wall St and the wealthy elite. They feel like perhaps corruption in government can be ended. That’s a very potent emotion and while Trump should not be given completely free reign it’s something that Congress needs to keep in mind over the next four years. People chose Trump’s message. As long as he tries to make good on it they best help or get out of the way.
There’s a revolution happening. The damnedest thing I’ve ever seen.
