I hate to be the barer of reality to you, but Trump was not the Genius behind his assent to the Presidency of the USA. That was by far more a product of Rupert Murdoch, and other similar "geniuses" who figured out that a large fraction of Conservative Americans don't want Truth, they want to be told what they want to hear. Murdoch figured that out and his media empire of feeding people who don't want to think but do want to be reassured is the true success behind Trump. Trump merely tapped into that, and the vast network of rightwing liars found in him one who fit their mold.

There will be others to follow in his footsteps, and in all likelihood they will lack the character flaws that Trump had in abundance. You haven't seen the end of this story by a long-shot.
