Trump was an unintended consequence of the Tea Party movement funded by
the Koch brothers from 2010, none of whose preferred candidates was able
to out-perform Donald Trump in the primaries for the 2016 presidential
election. If you were spineless enough to appeal to the Koch brothers,
you were too spineless to appeal to the electorate.

There was no master mind involved. Trump ran for the Republican
nomination as an ego trip, and was vastly surprised when he won it.

I don't know how you come by the idea that Trump is an egoist. He's

John Larkin is of roughly the same opinion - and he's another narcissist.

 Well thank heavens that's one character trait you don't suffer from,
Bill. ;->

It does seem to be trait that nobody imagines that they embody. Since my reaction when somebody says something nice about me is to look out for the nasty job that they are about to lumber me with, I imagine that I'm probably not a narcissist, but I could be wrong.
