How could this man win the presidency?
Business man turned reality star announced his candidacy for president and the media laughed.
Donald out witted 16 of the Republican’s best and the media said he didn’t have a chance.
When the candidates gathered for a fake debate, Donald didn’t show up. Instead, he went to help raise money for veterans.
When Trump was elected the Republican candidate at the national convention, the media went negative and discussed ad nauseam all the reasons why he could not win the national election.
Big name Republicans refused to support him and took a “Never Trump” stand. The media interviewed everyone of them to make sure the whole world heard their bitter objections to a Trump candidacy.
During the presidential debates, Hillary received the debate questions in advance of the program. Wolf Blitzer and others consulted with the DNC to obtain their anti-opposition research to find the most deceptive, baffling questions in an attempt to trap and stump Trump. It didn’t work.
During the campaign season, the media united behind Hillary to promote the first woman to the presidency. They went negative on Trump questioning his competence, criticizing his gaffes, and poking holes in his agenda. They chided him, blamed him, mocked him, slogged him, offered money to any witnesses that could offer sleaze about Trump to come forward. When that didn’t work, they slandered him, defamed him, and cast rocks of aspersion about him.
Then the media ignored him and refused to give any positive reports about his campaign speeches and the huge crowds that attended his rallies. On the other hand, Hillary’s sparsely attended rallies were carefully crafted to give the impression that she should become the queen bee for the nation.
For months the media showed the polls having Hillary comfortably ahead and Donald distressingly behind.
On election day, November 8, 2016 the main stream media announced Clinton ahead by 6 to 8 points predicting a landslide for Hillary. In the early part of the election coverage, the media pundits gleamed with smiles predicting, hoping, pushing, and pulling for a Hillary victory.
But, as the evening went on the media became puzzled, mystified, bewildered, and even depressed and angry as it looked like Donald might win the electoral college. Droopy eyes and bent lips appeared on the faces of the media magnets. As Donald crept ahead, the reporters looked like they had eaten a triple decker sauerkraut toadstool sandwich. The man who couldn’t win WON!
They threw everything they had at Donald to defeat him. Nothing in the Democratic playbook worked. Like the Terminator, he kept coming at the American people and his supporters stood by him through the bitter battle.
How could a man that refused to show up at the last Republican debate, called Miss Universe “Miss Piggy,” tangled with Megan Kelly labeling her a “horrible” journalist, said he “loved pretty women,” had “respect for all women” except fat, ugly Rosie O’Donnell and still win the presidency?
The fact that Donald won the electoral college has shocked the media and the reason for his victory is driving them insane!
Why did Donald win?
Knowing that he wasn’t perfect, that he had a few skeletons in his closet, that he’d said and done things that would be on the front page of every newspaper, Trump decided to run for the presidency anyway. He didn’t need the money, and he certainly didn’t need the office for some kind of self-affirming act.
He ran because he saw America headed in the wrong direction and his supporters strongly agreed with him!
He won because he was genuine, honest, and real. Crude, rude, and bad hairdo and all, the people loved him. He didn’t use a teleprompter, scripted speeches, rehearsed power phrases, nor use the typical, carefully crafted talking points of the Republican party to make the crowds feel good. He didn’t lie, deceive, or try to impress the crowds. He told the truth and called issues as he saw them. Even though he was rough, tough, rude, crude, and shocking to the media, Donald was being himself-warts and all! Shocking! So American, but so un-Washington D.C.
There was nothing plastic, sugar-coated, or fake about Donald.
During the whole campaign his faults were exposed to all, and he didn’t try to cover them up. He didn’t change to appease his critics or to “appear” “more presidential.” And, the people were shocked by his candidness.
Familiar with lying, deceptive, polished, and carefully scripted sophistry by politicians, Americans were unprepared for an honest, “call it like it is” kind of candidate.
Republicans were ashamed by such simplicity and frankness. Hollywood didn’t know how to handle something that was not staged. Americans were baffled. The media became flustered and couldn’t handle his candor. But, his supporters loved him and saw in him a genuineness that was totally refreshing.
Hillary, on the other hand, had a fake smile, a fake hand wave, and a fake stage production. She would not admit to lying or carelessness. She pretended she’d done nothing wrong. She admitted no health issues even though she had dozens of people around her propping her up, literally.
She was the paradigm of deceit, duplicity, fakery, falsity, equivocation, and fraud that is so common among politicians.
She was the polished, smooth, plastic candidate. Half of America accepted the glitter and the glaze, but the Trump supporters wanted nothing to do with the lying, cheating, forged, counterfeit phoniness of Hillary Clinton.
Most of us would never run for a political office because we have too many glaring flaws, things we are ashamed of, and skeletons in the closet.
But, Trump? He had all those things. He didn’t try to act like God. Rather, He was like us . . . one of us . . . a flawed human being that loves his country and was disturbed by Obama’s treachery to the nation. And, because he didn’t try to hide his warts or run a phony campaign, Trump supporters loved him for it.
And, because the media has never seen a real, genuine, unpolished candidate run for office, Trump is driving them insane.
