The top contributor to Trump winning was the Democrats. They put up Hillary the worse candidate possible. Someone with a shady past and doing the best to hide it, someone who has been in a government which has made a lot of Americans poorer, then her policies did nothing to address the problems.

Trump on the other hand understood the voters, something so called clever politicians don't.

He knew the animosity of people who were losing jobs and pay to illegal immigrants and simply don't believe the "they do jobs Americans don't want" spin. They have had their companies move to China or companies that promised them new jobs after their old ones had gone move as well. And Trump banged on about these things in speech after speech, while Hillary promised more of the same.

Result was enough of the middle ground switched allegiance and Trump won.

Still the Hillary crew don't get it, how will they stem the millions of jobs and dollars lost to China and illegal immigrants.

Will they get off the LBGT band horse and realise that at best the tiny percentage of Democrats who don't vote Democrat aren't going to swing anything.
