Two things helped Trump the most - his direct (and often over the top) communications, and the over-the-top media bias providing daily proof of Trump’s charge that everything is rigged.

President Trump tapped into American culture. America loves an under dog. Look at “Rocky”. It is the American story. Work hard, believe in yourself, believe in success, then enter the ring, fight, get hit, get up, hit, get hit but never give up.
That was trump. He got hit from every side. He would punch back, back and never stopped believing in himself and America. America saw a leader, a warrior, a friend. They were in his corner and never left. They told their friends and family over coffee. They became the resistance. The underground. They didn't want to be found. They came to rallies to tap into his energy and then back to the underground.
Our Rocky never stopped fighting and we knew it. We saw it. we got our energy from his energy. He was America's under dog. And American culture embraced him. When they raised his arm in victory Election Night, we all cheered, we all jumped up and we all cried that America was saved. He fought for us, we fought for him. America won.

I think Team Xlinton also seriesly miscalculated the amount of fraudulent votes they needed to manufacture. There were no people at her rallies except her staff and a few morbidly curious onlookers while President Trump turned away thousands standing around in the ice and rain
