Ten years of Trump

In looking back over the past ten years of Trump, people often ask how he was able to succeed. To the silent majority he represented someone who was opposed to the bureaucracy. His early pledge to drain the swamp caught the attention of all the people who had watched their good paying jobs disappear and the bureaucrats who fostered the changes. First off, he was not a part of the swamp but also behaved in a manor which proved he was not a politician. There were at least a dozen occasions where his remarks were supposed to be his doom but each time he was knocked down, he got back up. The more politically incorrect he became the more he gained in popularity in the working class, those who had watched elected officials do nothing while they lost their jobs. His unorthodox behavior and irreverent speech, connected with the working folks. To this day the educated White liberals do not understand what hit them. They are not interested in explaining policy only in bad mouthing Trump. If forced into a corner they will respond by saying they stand for redistribution of the wealth.
