Let me offer a very simple explanation of the Trump phenomenon: There's a strong dynamic now working in Trump's favor that may be almost impossible to overcome. All the establishment powers in the media (which everyone hates), the political establishment (which everyone hates), and much of the corporate establishment (which almost everyone hates) are seen as "piling on" against Trump. They're also seen as elitist and illegitimate critics who are all responsible for our current mess. They have ZERO credibility with the average working American.
