This is really an interesting time in our history. As we got closer to November I began to believe Trump could be an iconoclast, a wrecking ball against the calcified constructs of our ever-more-left-going government.
That is playing out, and it's rather wonderful to watch. He really is neither liberal nor conservative!
I check Scott Adams' blog regularly and he is nailing the psychology and strategy of Trump. I almost always laugh out loud at his last paragraphs.

Am also reading a book called MAGA Mindset, written and selling millions of copies well before the election. Premise is that Trump prevailed because he waded directly into the quagmire of issues swirling around all the candidates and never wavered. He is unapologetically nationalist (the wall), dismisses white guilt by acting like there's nothing wrong with being white, is unapologetically masculine in a national environment of rampant feminism, and completely disregards political correctness.
I am not sure how this all will play out, but it is interesting to watch! Waaaaaay more interesting than HRC would have been.
