    He was elected by theft.

    Simple.

    He stole it.  He knows how to work smarter not harder.  He just went to the root of the situation.  What can his money and power get him if he aims it in the right direction.

    Use a base that thinks he is GOD.  They are mindless followers that want a leader that they can understand. Meaning he will say any nonsense and they can back him up because he is real smart and he said some words.

    He somehow connected with some powers that be that have influence with Russia's ability to sway and hack and betray with no lack of ability to hide what they are doing.

    He smeared Hillary's name and it was not hard.  That mystifies me.  It wasn't hard.  Because she really did not do anything close to what all the Repubilcan candidates did.  All of them had such miserable dirty laundry it was impossible to take them seriously and yet they had very little on the political front to offer.  And the ones that had some time in the political arena were a total embarrassment. 

    Hillary was competent and she lost to this moron.

    That was not easy to do unless?  Something happened.  Many stupid red states.  That is for sure, but THIS?  I am stymied. 

    Mostly it was spite because we got Obama. 

    But more than that?  It was rigged somehow.  It was rigged when Bush got in and it is rigged today. 

    Who would ever elect BUSH?

    Talk about "theft" of an election.
    Nice job Hillary and her crowd did on Bernie Sanders.

    Unlike Hillary's nomination - Trump didn't have to steal anything.
    The Republicans were disorganized, so the media focused on the antics of the biggest showboat on stage.
    The Republican leadership was too slow to take him as a serious threat ... maybe remembering how Perot imploded.

    During the general election, the Democrats made the same mistake.  They failed to take him seriously.
    They also failed to reconcile with the Sanders' supporters.  Many of whom refused to vote for Hillary.

    Then there's the stupidity of the modern Electoral College.
    Which will only get worse, if enough states change theirs to give ALL the votes to the candidate who gets the most popular votes nationwide.
    No 3rd Party will stand a chance at national elections, and we will be stuck with a broken "2 Party" system - which was never intended to exist.
