This writer is now being asked quite often to explain the reasons for expecting Trump to win the White House. “How did you know?” and “Why were you so confident?” are examples of the most frequent queries from others.

The simple answer is, by doing considerable, continual, and thorough daily homework which led to discovery of readily available sources of valid, reliable information. Thanks to the Internet, there are many resources, here and elsewhere around the world. All one has to do is find them, qualify them and sort through what they continually produce. 

While there are many facets to the information development process, the most critical element supporting the expectation of a Trump win was a simple, yet overwhelmingly important reality: The mainstream media, in cohort with the Democrat party, continually lied to all, distorted data, mislead the public, playing the roles of full-time, unscrupled, totally dedicated accomplices.   

Therefore, once it was realized that the information spewed by the MSM was a monumental, conspiratorial fiction, the job here became simply to find, absorb and relate the truth.

As so often happens, yesterday Rush inimitably provided his slant on what’s transpired, by dissecting what’s really taken place politically in the nation for many years now, and how and why it’s happened.

Setting the premise, Rush said: “I'm talking about the demise of the Democrat Party.  The Democrat Party since 2010, the midterm elections in 2010, they lost 900 seats in that election in the House, in the Senate, go to governorships, mayors, town council, if you go all over the country, they got a shellacking.  We now know that if Donald Trump had run for president in 2012 using the exact data he got versus what Obama got in 2012, Donald Trump would have beaten Obama in 2012, if you take the data from this election and measure it against what Obama had. 

“Hillary Clinton got six million fewer votes than Barack Obama in 2012.  In 2014, the next set of midterms, the Democrats lost another 700 seats.  The Democrat Party has been decimated.  They have no bench.  They don't have anybody bringing up the rear in case Hillary lost.  They have literally been shellacked.  We have been governed by a minority against our will, and the illusion has been that they are the majority and gaining the majority and growing the majority.” 

“Six million fewer Democrats showed up to vote for a person who thought she was going to be coronated, so loved and adored we were told she was by the Democrat Party.  She had to steal her own nomination from Bernie Sanders.  Folks, we are lied to every day by the Democrat Party, which is the media.  We are lied to about how we are viewed in the country.  We are lied to about how they are viewed.  We are lied to about how the country loves their policies and loves them.  We are lied to each and every day, and it is the daily soap opera that I have warned about and talked about that the media gets together and scripts, the daily narrative.”

And then, Rush presented a rationalization which rang truest of all, whereas it confirmed my own deductions precisely: “The illusion has been that we are the ones dwindling away to nothing, and it's been the exact opposite.  The pollsters didn't miss anything.  They didn't get anything wrong.  They just didn't tell us the truth about what they were seeing in these polls.  You go back and look at it now.  The data there was.  They, exactly as I asked on the day of the election, if we're not gonna believe them all of these months when they report the news, why believe the polls that they produce?”

In that regard, as regular readers know well, these very entry’s for quite a long time in the past included results from the USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times "Daybreak" poll and IBD/TIPP Tracking poll which bucked the tide of the significantly distorted counts coming from the collusive MSM and the Democrat party itself. This pair of entity's continually reported Trump's lead unabashedly.  

Rush did a yeoman’s job in his analysis of the election phenomenon. Here’s a link: http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2016/11/10/i_m_getting_nervous_about_all_these_calls_for_trump_to_unify_with_the_losers

Coming back to the subject of data collection and analysis, there were other telling signs about what concerns were really on the minds of much of the electorate. Stalwart liberal sources, such as the New York Times, Washington Post, CBS, ABC, NBC, and cable channels CNN and MSNBC, consistently presented conclusive confirmation of Democrat victory’s, including the presidency and both houses of Congress. However, to many such as myself, those conclusions often seemed quite presumptuous, especially among those who read and absorbed reader’s comments that followed most reportage.     

For quite a long time now, growing numbers of readers refuted leftist bias as posted in the mainstream press. While at the same time, Trump and his platform of government restructure obtained massive supportive commentary from those in agreement with him.   

Regarding the cumulative affect of the common nerve Trump struck amongst his followers, Rush again offered  a quite telling summation: “Ladies and gentlemen, the Republican Party... Let me put this in perspective for you -- and this is among the things that nobody saw, and stand by for even more delightful detail on this.  The Republican Party is stronger in Washington than it has ever been since the 1920s!  We have more power in Washington, DC -- the Republican Party -- than at any time since the 1920s.  It is huge!  The Republicans have expanded their... The Republicans didn't; Donald Trump did.”

Therefore, as a practical reality, what took place at the polls was certainly no accident. Pent up voter frustration, disappointment and dissatisfaction brewed and festered throughout the nation. And then, along came Trump who sensed the unrest from an average citizen’s viewpoint, to which he responded by creating a message that resounded unwaveringly. Earning the White House as a result.

And since, daily updates on Bill Clinton’s wife are no longer necessary or of any interest to anyone, except perhaps to those on her cases in the criminal justice system, it’s time to say:

That’s it for today folks.

Adios
