Why does Trump have such popularity? Why do women, blacks and Hispanics vote for him? Why do people who don't vote for Trump say those who do are one or more of the following: ignorant, racist, mysoginist, or Nazi?

I was surprised Trump won, but more surprised by Democrats' reaction to it, and continue to be surprised by so many simply denying reality that he's the president. If there's a problem, denial and blame the world book tours aren't helping. Considering I misread the 2016 election so badly, I don't know if the reaction to Obama's election was this extreme, but I don't think so.

Funny, I did here comparison our Polish Kaczyński to the Trump, couple threads ago , and have to do it again.
His party here gets 30% voters support too, regardless of their shit production,
and
it looks , that he has no match in the opposition , he may win again ...
but
he is much wiser than Trump, `cause Kaczyński not directing officially , he is doing it from the "back seat",
so
officially - he is ordinary deputy
NO responsibility what`s so ever

Well, I think the biggest issue with the Trump win was that he lost the general election and only won by the godamned electoral college. More people voted for Hillary, but Bozo the Clown ends up being President.

One difference was that Republicans said that they would do everything possible to obstruct Obama. Now they change rules and laws to enable Trump's policies. Remember their refusal to consider Obama's Supreme Court nominee, but changed the rules so that they didn't need the usual number. The irony is that Obama got more done with resistance than Trump can do when it's now a sin not to be loyal to the "president." Obama also got more votes than Trump, but Republicans said his win didn't represent the will of the American people.

It's also galling that Trump led the birther charge. Not to mention that one congressman called Obama a liar during his first SOTU address. I'm hoping the favors can be returned because they are deserved.
