Hard Choices: Why Trump won and how the Dems must change (Lyin' Steve's autopsy)

[Meclazine for Israel]

I think you have some great points in there Steve.

Character was a big deal. Even though Trump misfired on some of his communication, he did communicate things directly to people with a familiarity like their uncle, and those things were heard.

Even though he has narcissistic ideals and a history of poor sexual conduct, the populous appears to have forgiven that in exchange for someone who will change the country.

And then Hillary continually attacked Trump without ever realising his "actual" popularity vs his "perceived" popularity.

As John Howard, former Australian Prime Minister noted:

"Never underestimate the intelligence of your most average voter."

And you highlighted that well in Hillary's continual attacks.

As for the Democratic Party, dont be too harsh , only missing out by a very small amount.
