One of the better explanations of how we ended up with a Trump presidency

i imagine  has to recover from TDS to fully understand the populism that has taken hold but reading this is a good start.

"In his inaugural address, Trump said: “Today, we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another or from one party to another, but we are transferring power from Washington, DC, and giving it back to you, the people.” To be sure, populism of this kind can be dangerous and unpredictable, But it doesn’t arise from nowhere. Only a corrupt political establishment could have provoked a political revolt of this scale. Instead of blaming Trump’s rise on racism or xenophobia, blame it on those who never saw this coming and still don’t understand why so many Americans would rather have Donald Trump in the White House than suffer the rule of their elites."

Populating his cabinet with billionaires, Wall Street bankers and trust fund babies - that'll show those stinkin' elites who's boss thumbup
