People want Trump bc of capitalism, sexism, and NYC.
With Trump money will rule and everyone will have a chance at a come up. On the flip side predatory financial practices will also increase. But America will always take money over anything else bc it is the only way to establish some form of meritocracy for the middle class.
Sexism still runs wild. Clinton got the easiest competition imaginable and she still might lose. And it's not based on her political or leadership skills bc she is the most qualified on that end. Ppl want to know that she will be taken seriously, and like a woman trying to physically intimidate a man, it's just hard to imagine.
And lastly Trump is representing NYC at the end of the day, the crown jewel of America, in an age where people are disillusioned with suburb life. NYC represents the best America has to offer and an outspoken NYC billionaire will rally everyone bc he has a personality that is based in a culture that is uniquely American. None of that pandering to the masses personality that has ruined society by stripping the value out of everything.
