I'm not criticizing any posters here; they may well be right. But I really think that no one saw this coming, not until PA appeared to be going for Trump.
This election was a shocker on the order of Harry Truman upsetting Dewey in 1948. No one saw that coming, either.
I didn't believe Trump would do it until he did it. The bottom line for me is that the realignment going on in the Rust Belt amongst white working class voters was further along than anyone suspected. Except, possibly, Donald Trump. No matter what anyone thinks of him, Donald Trump knows SOMETHING about this process that no one else does.
Even he didn't expect to win. Or else he wouldn't have already been 95% finished with basically all of his fundamental plans for setting up an enormous media empire shortly after the election had ended. If anything, Trump was perhaps the one person most surprised with the results of all people you could think of from the top of your head.
Now all the pussygrabbers of the world - from the Phillipines to Syria to Nigeria and beyond - can unite and form an enormous brotherhood. Newt Gingrich has already nominated Trump for next year's Nobel Peace Prize for putting on the global agenda the basic rights of men's rights activists, rapists, pedophiles, homophobes and racists across the globe, from sea to shining sea. Now the only question remaining is whether he will beat out the Pope for the prize in the end.
