I was 100% wrong but 80% right. My Midwest observation wom him the election but with 3 vs my 1 state guess (counting PA as rustbelt Midwest). He also got Fl.

I think the media cost Hillary. Their decision to go all in for HRC combined with late Comey machinations caused honest Midwest folks to vote against cheating media. That is my guess. I also think after being constantly called racist by the government of the USA, many voted to change that govt.

Meanwhile if Trump governs like his speech, maybe there is hope! Key is not punishing his opponents. Ryan and HRC are first signs of his direction. At least we can now get fiscal levers in favor of growth. Kill regs. Kill Ocare (but it will have to be replaced). Supremes scared me with Left but now with Right. Also, we do not need reduced taxes - other than corporate nominal rate but with fixes to what is counted.

The reaction of African American commentators was not good on Fox or CNN. They were calling racism still. And blamed Exec Decisions on GOP intransigence. Well, the people have spoken. They did not want amnesty - but watch Trump will likely pass amnesty bill. His big issue is the too strong GOP in House. I also wonder what Dems will do on judges and if GOP will kill filibuster. They don't need to do so though as they can use reconcilation in Ocare if no compromise replacement reached.
