The run-up to and the 2016 presidential election shows one of my theories of
human behavior at work, the one with people walking around with open toilet-lid
heads so anybody flying overhead that happens to relieve themselves of the same flavor of excrement that's in their skulls can dump at will, score a bullseye every time. But truth sensors on the lid cause it to snap shut whenever it senses anything flying overhead with a load of logic,truth, decency or intelligent compassion on board.
For the majority of voters (and me) Clinton represented the SOSDE (same old sh** different election) syndrome. It's a template humans have been using for generations immemorial that seek dominion over the rest of us that is since elections took the place of robbing, torturing, raping and killing entire villages (for the most part in this country).
And this time a slight variation of it worked for Trump but not for Clinton.

Trump trumped Clinton by going back to a much more fundamental version of the same SOSDE template he had figured out by deducing what's in the heads of his target audience and gave them that. In other words, in terms of roads taken, He took the lowest road, one appealing to the lowest intellectual common denominator while Clinton at least in appearance, aimed a bit higher, staying on a higher, rhetorically anyway, road.
So what is the template they used? It's the same one they've all used since this country finished the job of killing or corralling Native Americans on tiny unfertile barren lands in The west and lynching African Americans sometime mid-last century.
The template is the modern way in crafting, maintaining or getting back into any power base, be it political, religious or any institution, workplace or whatever. I call it the Hitler plan in salute to the man who used it so well along with the previous methods of dominion:

Step 1: tell the constituents how wonderful they are Step 2: then give them a target or targets to vilify, anything other than the real culprits,which is themselves (including the candidate), for the cause of all their problems. For Trumpies, it's anyone not just like them and for Trampies it was the Trumpies, LOL.
So Both Trump and Clinton used the same template to different effects. Trump disguised it enough so that the people who have woken up to the fact that all the politicians aren't in Washington to help anyone but themselves, didn' t recognize that his template for getting elected was also load of crap, just a much more dumb & meaner flavor from all the others.
Sorry, maybe I can ditch the crap metaphor & perhaps better illuminate my thoughts about what happened Tuesday.
So here I go: Using a packaged gift metaphor: both candidates wrapped the same old sh** (I'm SOO sorry! For some baffling reason I just cannot get away from "crap" being the perfect metaphor when thinking about this or any political campaign & election) wrapped in different color packaging for customers who's tastes only differ regarding the wrapping colors (plain white for Trump followers &multi color for Clinton's)

Trump Trumped the Tramp (I'm only using the word tramp because it's semi-clever word play) by decorating his excrement (message) to smell like the excrement floating around in the heads of his supporters, while Clinton adapted her crap to smell like the excrement floating around in the heads of her more educated and diverse drones. Trump knew he had to dumb it down and slip in a heavy dose of hatefulness and she knew she had to have a sharper smelling load devoid of bigotry and hatred except when aimed at a very convenient target of course: Trump himself. But what does human nature do with an attack? Duh! they dig in and deny and defend the undefendable. So Clinton made two mistakes, one mathematical (the ones with her flavor of crap in their heads were outnumbered by the ones with Trump's flavor in theirs) and the other, attacking Trump relentlessly and thereby making him a political martyr to his supporters.
But there is more to it than that: She's a career politician and Trump is a billionaire. To his supporters, then, somehow, he's not just another typical politician running for office. Instead he's an outsider, a true crusader out to make a difference.
But to me, once in the political arena using the same old tired ploys to get elected, if it walks like a duck & quacks like a duck, well then it's a go** da**** DUCK!
His supporters are missing one crucial fact (actually my opinion) when Clinton is in an office, PEOPLE LIKE TRUMP ARE HER BOSS. So Trump IS NOT the "outsider" he masterfully led his supporters to believe he is. He's actually the apex predator in the Power Pyramid and we are the foundation of the pyramid that the likes of Clinton and Trump stand upon. His disguise to fool them into thinking he isn't the establishment boss man was simply his trash&hate talking gibberish that I've heard all my life out of the mouths of his future constituents. So Trump is a better mathematician and crafted a message to resonate with the biggest majority of voters in America while Clinton tried to woo the rest, enough of which because, they are, as the liberal (another power base with Clinton's crap flavor in their heads) keep pointing out, more educated, didn't swallow some more of the same old crap anymore, thus the lower turnout for her of Black people and Hispanics than she was hoping for.
None of the campaigns anywhere in the world are about "Change" or "HOPE" or Trump's "MEXICANS ARE RAPISTS."
Whatever packaging they choose for their "message" it's still just a load of crap like always. Nobody who is truthful can get the $ backing of the billionaires to run a competitive campaign. That's because the candidates who tell the truth come out and tell us "you're the problem and only 'you' and I collectively can fix the problems."
Voters just don't want to hear such crap as "you're responsible" for this situation. They want to hear that it's somebody else's fault. Clinton and Trump know that, so they tell us how wonderful we are, al la Hitler in Nazi Germany and then point the finger to scapegoats.
Trump picked the easy ones, immigration, Mexicans, Muslims. But the truth is that ALL RELIGIONS SUCK because all have been the cause and the reason or excuse for most of the violence and wars throughout the world for several millenia.
Elections are always about one thing: obtaining or consolidating POWER and the attendant prestige."
So they are all liars and full of crap. And after winning they flip-flop (like Trump all ready has) make excuses about why they do nothing or vote for something wrong or don't vote and the gullible majkprotyu, it seams who still think the "aMERICAN DREAM is real and something that the system, is designed for and wants them to obtain, (ROFLMAO).
I had to hold my nose to vote because I know what they are about and I'm trying to enlighten you.

So their tired of the SOS DE & have wised up SOME but, of course, not to the point that
they accept any responsibility for their problems, so disguised as Trump disguised it, it still works. It's just like the theory of the Primordial SOUP from which Life purportedly sprang.
President Trump has risen from the Electoral Soup of hatred, greed, denial, and selfishness in all of us. All it took was for Trump with the balls to speak the hateful, racist, ethnocentric, sexist shit that's in our heads, all fear based, that they latch onto it because Hillary's bullsh** did not coincide with their
preconceived fears and prejudices like Trump's bullsh** did.
