Hindsight is ALWAYS 20/20.

I read through these three expounded upon points and there are some “wisdoms” contained within with which I don’t agree. In point one, it ends with frustration of the middle class including “rich-get-richer” dissatisfaction. I don’t begrudge that, nor was it EVER part of my frustration.

Point two: “unscripted personality.” Yeah, horsehockey unless you really want to nail it down and say that his appeal was and IS that he speaks from the heart, tells you the truth as he believes it, and, MORE IMPORTANTLY, has so far been the ONLY candidate to try and implement his campaign promises I can remember. The other candidates and politicians have ALL been liars of exigency, IMO.

Point three: Ability to ‘control’ the media. No. He isn’t controlling them. He is ignoring them and refusing to accept the media’s false narrative. Neither he, you, I or the media can help that he’s chose another venue to get his message out.

In summation, I submit that even those on our side who may or may not have any motives in analyzing what happened STILL DO NOT GET IT! Not a damn bit. To understand the reasons, you have had to LIVE with its causes over decades and suffered the endless lies of dissembling politicians and an intrusive government that doesn’t give a sh!t about you in an economy which has been lied about consistently.

The opposition candidates — the 16 or so Republicans AND Hillary Clinton — ran on the same old political party platforms they had been running on for decades.

They were out of touch with ‘flyover country’.

Clinton ran basically a 1992 type campaign with many of the same speeches and promises. The 16 or so Republicans did similar by parroting the same Republican talkingpoints — lower taxes, better wages, economic improvement, yada yada yada.

None of them offered anything new, and besides, they were politicians who few trusted to keep any promises they made.

A huge (YUGE) part of the unscripted personality is his total rejection of political correctness. That may have been the biggest part of it.

Another part is the fact that since he was “unscripted”, that means NO ONE was writing the script for him. Not Soros, not the RNC, not the DNC, not donors. NO ONE.

And being unscripted, the media and the Democrats with scripts didn’t know how to react when he went off script. Priceless.

Put the blame for her defeat where it rightly belongs.

The Clintonistas all hated him. But Hillary-Its-Your-Turn was forced to run for Obama's third term....and she stupidly took that route.

Obama had a habit of raining on Hillary's parade.

For instance, Hillary's debates came off looking good and she looked good after the convention. But her campaign fell off a cliff, after Obama gave her a helping hand.

Obama's obsession for burnishing his (gag) legacy is all he ever thinks about b/c it means big bucks for his foundations.

So his sap-happy "I'm The Greatest" messaging forced Hillary to follow his lead and run for a third Obama term. She no longer ran on change, she ran on Obama's continued progressiveness in a country crying for change.

She lost the election in the final two weeks because of avoidable things like Obama embracing her that sent the electorate a frightening message.

The Royal Idiot's ringing endorsement of Hillary meant many people had moved over to the Trump side.
