6. This is why I bristle when the pundits refer to Dotard as a "Populist"

Yes he rode in on a wave of resentment for the status quo and government, but real populism is based broadly on economic fairness and a strong working/middle class, a chicken in every pot. Bernie was the closest to populism during the last election cycle.

Dotard managed to convince a lot of folks that are still hurting from W's recession that an articulate black man didn't understand their pain and looked down on them from his Harvard law degree. Mostly, they couldn't look past the size of their paychecks and the color of his skin.

They linked HRC to Obama and demanded their turn at the controls regardless of the obvious disconnect of voting for a NYC slum lord billionaire.

They voted for the exact type of person that has always exploited them, but still can recognize when the 1% is sticking it to them. Hopefully they will remember this when the midterms come around.
