1. Hard right white vote that was probably up from that of McCain and Romney

2. Hillary's lack of appeal

3. Rust belt and NAFTA

2. Clinton was an historically unpopular candidate who couldn't shake scandals. The perception of her being the ultimate insider was also poor timing for the 2016 election.

Helped Trump: Women who know men want to screw attractive women and that's ok.

She followed Obama, lied and the American people just couldn't connect with her as a genuine person.

Trump brings optimism. Trying going to one of his rallies. Greatly reduced government intervention.

Hillary was too short, corrupt, corrupt, not humble, mean, angry, poor health - at least she can rest up at San Quentin for 5-10 years. Free food.

A few things hurt Hillary.

1). The massive amount of refugees that she wanted to pour into our country.

2). Granting a pathway to citizenship for illegals her first 100 days.

3). Her flip flop on the TPP trade deal.
