Mirroring sentiment of every-day voter

Posted December 02, 2016 4:00 am

It's absolutely amazing how President-elect Trump won this election. Trump had to overcome a biased media that did not have one positive comment about him.

Their main objective was to destroy Trump. His competition in the Republican primary made a promise to support whomever was chosen as the Republican candidate; most did not live up to their promise and, in fact, campaigned against him.

Democrat operatives were financially supporting domestic terrorists to infiltrate Trump campaign rallies with the specific purpose to cause violence. Also, Democrat operatives were advising how they could manipulate polling data to favor Hillary. Is it any wonder why all the polls showed Trump losing? The financial sector had a part in trying to control the outcome of this election; exemplified by a Merrill Lynch investment advisor claiming if Trump wins, the stock market will tank. Guess what? Two weeks after the election all stock market economic indicators are at all time highs.

So, how did President-elect Trump win? His campaign platform mirrored the sentiment of the every day voter like me.
