He got Trump's profile right before anyone else. It's too bad Adams has turned off comments on his blog, as it would be interesting reading material.

Scott Adams from August 2015...two months after Trump threw his hat in the ring:

Clown Genius | Scott Adams' Blog

Quote:
Like many of you, I have been entertained by the unstoppable clown car that is Donald Trump. On the surface, and several layers deep as well, Trump appears to be a narcissistic blow-hard with inadequate credentials to lead a country.


The only problem with my analysis is that there is an eerie consistency to his success so far. Is there a method to it? Is there some sort of system at work under the hood?


Probably yes. Allow me to describe some of the hypnosis and persuasion methods Mr. Trump has employed on you. (Most of you know I am a trained hypnotist and this topic is a hobby of mine.)

...and from March 2016 (before Trump even secured the GOP nomination):

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...-explains-why/

And that is part of why Adams believes Donald Trump will win the presidency. In a landslide.

The person who took that video of Hillary collapsing and having to be carried into the van was huge.

Yes, one of the biggest stories of the election, and it was captured by a citizen journalist.

........feel free to add to the list.
RT is a commie rag, but they did push for Trump heavily.

You forgot the big ones from your list: COMEY & PUTIN.

I didn't get free cookies. Bad enough I didn't get bailed out, but not getting free cookies really steams me.

Online sources, yes, I think they deserve some credit in part.

But I believe for the recent presidential election, throngs of unmotivated voters who did not bother to vote deserve the biggest credit.
