How did an internet troll become President of the United States ?

He pandered to the Republican base which is made up of bigots, racists and very ignorant people.
@whoowho: It's intriguing to me, because I do understand what your point is; if some people who voted for Obama and supported Sanders made that 180 and cast their vote for Trump, that's a huge disconnect in terms of what each candidate represents and I would love to know what else could've been done to prevent it. I strongly hesitate to blame Obama because he tried to be non-partisan---supposedly the correct way to behave---and the GOP obstructed him anyway. It's almost comparable to watching someone deliberately put out a foot and [i]trip[/i] a person, and then getting angry at the latter for falling.

@bijouxbroussard: I am not saying Obama should have [i]personally[/i] done something about it. He should have hired a team to look into why we were losing so many seats. I believe Bill Maher asked him that question. He never got a good answer. Sadly, we are paying for it now. The Republicans want to know why we are so angry? Well, it's because no one had our back and paid attention. I live on the East Coast. In my neighborhood, no one voted for Trump. I wish I knew what was going on in all the states that were hurting. I would have been better prepared. Now we have to rely on Neocons to save us. The thought is not thrilling. 🙄
@whoowho: I do understand. My state and governor have been virtually at war with the Trump administration, with some people talking about seceding (which isn't happening anymore than it did when the anti-Obama factions proposed it). It's a bad situation to be in.

So if you don't agree with someone they're automatically a troll? I guess liberals aren't so tolerant after all.

@Burnley123: I think you're right ..... and furthermore , I think he is taking the piss out of the people he claims to represent. 😉

He has his finger on the zeitgeist as well as the nuclear button. It is going to get a lot worse before he his done.

So in other words you think Trump's a liar because you're a liberal.
