Lets not forget that many who voted for Trump in the primaries were also voting against everything Conservatives believe as well.
You misunderestimate the American People.
The vast majority of Americans are practical people, we're not necessarily ideologues. What is "conservative" or "liberal" on any given day may vary according to the talking points of the party leaders and the commentary of the talking heads, but common sense remains relatively constant from one day to the next.
The American People knew in advance what we were getting with Hillary, and then she showed it to us again each and every day during the campaign. Lies, deceit, underhandedness, and then to the corruption, one scandal after another, day after day, every day a new one. That's Hillary, she's always been that way and that's just the way she is and there's no changing her.
If you were following the polls early in the campaign, you heard that Hillary had a huge lead. So the choice was basically between Hillary and whoever was behind Door #2. And the rest is history, Trump beat out 16 other Republicans and got more primary votes than any other Republican candidate in history, and that's because he talked
common sense. It may have "sounded" outrageous, to some people, and some people heard way more than he actually said, and some people
pretended they heard way more than he actually said.... and all this was not lost on the American People. And then towards the end it became so blatantly obvious that you couldn't miss it (even if you weren't paying attention) - poll numbers going from 16 to 2 in one week, things like that... and once again, all this contrivance was not lost on the American People.
So, apparently, this is where the Democrats put their money - contrivance. Everything from the Hollywood factor to outright lies. And this is what Hillary showed us, and she never tried to show us anything different.
There were plenty of people who voted for Trump because they decided that Hillary Clinton was an entirely dangerous person, far too capricious and whimsical to be allowed back into the White House. You know, for all her bluster about Donald Trump being "unfit", we find out that
she is the one who throws psychotic rages after midnight, and finds it impossible to appear for an important 3am meeting.
It seems to me the American People are mostly feeling pretty grateful right now (except for a few college kids, and a few paid protesters, whose numbers are entirely insignificant). America dodged a bullet. We could have been really,
really screwed with Hillary as president. The corrupt Orwellian liberals could have had the Supreme Court for the next 30 years, and then we go beyond money is speech, beyond buildings are people... you know... maybe war becomes peace and lies become truth, that sounds about right for the Democrats.
Instead, the American People spoke, and the Republicans have all three branches of government for many years to come, because it's going to take
years for the Democratic Party to recover from the devastation that was just handed to it. Think of it like the Neo-Cons, it took about 8 years for the Republican party to get back on the radar after the '08 election, and that sounds about right for the Democrats at this point, 8 years.
The Dems just don't seem to get it - the entire campaign they were trying this "racist, sexist" stuff against Donald Trump, and it didn't work. So here they are, trying the "racist, sexist" stuff again. It's amazing, it really is - I mean, it's not going to work this time either. It won't work next time either. But I'm sure the libbies will keep beating their heads against the wall.... yuk.
There were a few libs who got it right away. Chuck Todd from NBC had his light bulb moment in real time, on the air. He was on with three others and you could see he got it and they didn't. And then you have idiots like Van Jones who's leading a conference on how the Progressives can do better in '18. One of his friends should take a moment to inform the poor gentleman he's wasting his time.
