He won because he does not speak like a polished politician, as Pence rightly remarked.

People are sick to death of slick politicians. The Clintons are the slickest of all; they lie, cheat, steal, anything to gain more wealth and power. And they will not stop being who they are if elected.

This kinda reminds me of the recorded music industry of the late 50’s and early 60’s. The industry was slick and polished. There were acts like Doris Day, Frank Sinatra, et al. But there was something new in the works with the likes of Elvis, Holly and Cash. It was not polished. It was raw. It was not slick arrangements of songs written by professional song writers. It was a small band of “so-so” musicians and songs that hit people where they lived, and hit them hard.

I get the feeling that, in a way, Trump is to politics what Elvis was to music. The beginning of things to come. It takes the right guy at the right time. In a way, it took Obama to give us Trump.
