Does anyone even remember Trump pre-2015? The guy was a joke and his show on tv sucked ass and all his brands failed. (hexbear.net)

It’s because the media backlash came after he made that comment about Mexicans and he didn’t back down. I remember a lot of people saying, “that’s what I love about Trump. He doesn’t take shit from anybody.”

This was during a right-wing backlash to perceived political correctness and people being forced into apologies for “wrong think.” Same reason someone severely lacking charisma like Jordan Peterson gained a following.

Then the media kept going and Trump continued telling them to fuck off. Nothing riles up chuds more than a guy who tells the MSM to fuck off.
