Brilliantly Summed up by a totally pissed off yank who couldn't stand the system..

It happened because you banned super-sized sodas and smoking in parks. And offensive ideas on campus.
Because you branded people who oppose gay marriage "homophobic" and people unsure about immigration "racist" .
Because you treated owning a gun and never having eaten Guinoa as signifiers of fascism.
Because you thought correcting peoples attitudes was more important than finding them jobs.
Because you turned "white man" from a description into a insult.
Because you used slurs like "denier" and "dangerous" against anyone who doesn't share your eco-pieties.
Because you treated dissent as hate speech and criticism of Obama as extremism.
Because you talked more about gender-neutral toilets than about home repossessions.
Because you beatified Caitlyn Jenner.
Because you policed people's language, rubbished their parenting skills, took the piss out of their beliefs.
Because you cried when someone mocked the Koran but laughed when they mocked the bible.
Because you said criticising Islam is Islamophobia.
Because you kept telling people, "you can't say that, you can't do this".
Because you turned politics from something done by and for people to something done to them, for their own good.
Because you treated people like trash. And people don't like being treated like trash..... TRUMP HAPPENED BECAUSE OF YOU !!!
The very same applies over here. :D.

They couldn't stand the system so they elected a billionaire with no experience. Way to stick it to the 'man'.

Here's how it happened, predicted over a year before the event by the very many that Clinton cheated out of the presidential race (Bernie Sanders):

"Let me be very clear. In my view, Democrats will not retain the White House, will not regain the Senate, will not gain the House and will not be successful in dozens of governor’s races unless we run a campaign which generates excitement and momentum and which produces a huge voter turnout.

With all due respect, and I do not mean to insult anyone here, that will not happen with politics as usual. The same old, same old will not be successful.
The people of our country understand that — given the collapse of the American middle class and the grotesque level of income and wealth inequality we are experiencing — we do not need more establishment politics or establishment economics.


We need a political movement which is prepared to take on the billionaire class and create a government which represents all Americans, and not just corporate America and wealthy campaign donors.

In other words, we need a movement which takes on the economic and political establishment, not one which is part of it."

The man was spot on once again, and would have won easily vs. Trump.
 


The tiresome O'Neill gets things half right as usual.

Trump won because he is a very clever politician totally underestimated by liberals, and these complacent centrists put up the only possible candidate he could have beaten, an entitled Wall Street crony.

It does worry me that half of those marching yesterday would do exactly the same again

Hardly much choice was there ?

No, but if it's a choice for the rich woman who you think is a bit corrupt or a racist, sexist, disabiloty mocking, bankrupt declaring, corrupt xenophobic twonk, it's not hard to pick a side. Lesser of two evils and all that.
 








Since Kennedy, all American Presidents have been puppets of the system. Will be interesting to see how the manipulators react and how DT will fare.

The "system" must be absolutely wetting its knickers given all those Goldman types he's hired huh

He may be a billionaire but there's no denying he played the role of outsider brilliantly and the system made it a reality. And before you say it, no I didn't want him as President but then again I didn't want Hillary either.

Indeed he did. He is indeed a brilliant conman.
