He's not. But he's not a political insider. He wasn't the Republican Party's anointed candidate. Like so many things, it's a game of perception. Perception = reality.

I think this video did a good job explaining it (without being a Trump booster, which he definitely isn't):

I don't think it's a deliberate conspiracy but it's no secret that about 90% of journalists are democrats/liberals. They're all for diversity, as long as it's not political diversity.

I read those articles. If people who voted of Trump feel looked down upon by city people now let me make you aware that you've put a true psychopath in the White House. You will now be looked down on by the world. You've earned that "low information voter" title. Trump is a con man and he's not going to help you. I have no sympathy for you because you have a long history of voting for the very people that have been the architects of destruction of your economies, of OUR economies. A long history of being race bated into voting for Republican policies that have dramatically increased the burden on working class and middle class people for decades. You are responsible because of your inability to think and because you embrace you're very own ignorance by rejecting and demonizing all forms of information by deeming it "liberal" or "elite". You've put a true psychopath in the White House but you're too ignorant to actually know he's a psychopath and that you've been conned. However the world chooses to look down upon you, you've earned it.

This is total unverified, emotional, MSM drivel. I love how a random guy on the internet can call a guy who built a multi-billion dollar real estate empire a "con man" psychopath despite the fact he has employed tens of thousands of people, deals with foreign vendors daily, and has managed to run a successful presidential campaign despite the resistance of BOTH political parties, and the entire main stream media.

Yeah he's just a crazy lunatic psycho foaming at the mouth. Man, you got him good.

I don't see how this is even a debatable point. I don't have cable TV, but once in a while, I'll have the unfortunate instance where someone will leave a copy of the New York Times around in the office, and the NYT will have some tabloid-like headline, "Trump's wife is naked" followed by pictures of Melania in lingerie.

All the while, Hillary Clinton is being investigated by the FBI, and that's on page 8 in a 2x2 inch box.

In the exit polls, 70% of voters said the MSM was untrustworthy. So at least their antics didn't go unnoticed.

Even the Bush administration was more balanced and diverse than this. What a joke.

With republicans controlling both the senate and the house now, Trump's radical plans will go unchecked. This is very frightening.

Latinos, blacks, Muslims, and women, you better hide yo kids and hide yo wives.
Yeah, Trump only became racist once he decided to run against your savior Hillary. Let's forget the fact that he has employed thousands of latinos, blacks, and muslims, put a paycheck in their pocket every month, and helped support all of their children, and other family members.

Oh wait, that doesn't fit into your race baiting agenda.

Wait so because he employed people of color he's not racist? LMAO you mean like how all those racist hotels and racists did through history? Just because you have "the help" employed doesn't mean you're not a racist. Typical right wing logic. "HEY I HAVE A BLACK FRIEND I CANT BE RACIST!"

He didn't rent to Blacks, He trashed the Central Park 5 Even after a guy came forward admitting to the crime, he STILL attacked them. But he's not racist. Republicans are the biggest race baiters there are but they never own up to it.

Yeah because racist people like to pay salaries to minorities so they can pay for their mortgages, cars payments, and put their kids through college.

Yeah, that's what racist people do! They give you a job so you can pay your bills and live a good life!
