Faced with existential threats from the right, the Democratic leadership remains timid; faced with demands for justice from the left, it goes on the attack.
If, by establishment, we mean the specific cliques that run the two party system, then he was an outsider.
Traitorapist Trump is by far the most “insider” there is in the GOP right now. And also its chief oligarch.
He successfully positioned himself as an outsider breaking through the walls of power.
He has successfully positioned himself as a pathological liar in a party that has loved dishonesty for many decades. He has successfully positioned himself as a fascist in a party that increasingly despises democracy and freedom. He has successfully positioned himself as a dumbass in a conservative movement that has been anti-science for centuries, opposing not just climate change but evolution and the idea that the Earth revolves around the sun and that the Earth is round and not flat. All Trump did was figure out how decadent and depraved the GOP had become before others did and got in front of it.
The more the political establishment and their talking heads talk about how bad Trump is, the more voters liked him
Trump is the most despised politician in the history of America. Ordinary Americans hate Traitorapist Trump way more than any “political establishment” ever did. The Baby Trump balloon and the Naked Trump statue weren’t created by any “political establishment”. What you are really saying is that a certain class of voters LIKE TO BE LIED TO by politicians, and LIKE POLITICIANS WHO ARE CRIMINALS, and WANT POLITICIANS TO BECOME MORE CORRUPT than they were before Trump.
