Hilary was disliked by a huge number of Americans and the democrats totally misjudged that, but it was the person more than the politics that allowed Trump in.

and with regard to it only being left leaning protesters in the UK, that is simply not true. Trump's brand of politics doesn't sit well with many, from all sides in the UK.


The GOP establishment had no time for Trump during the Primaries until it looked like he was going to win. I wonder how many of the establishment now regret supporting him
