I would say it's not so much Trump won as everyone else lost. The Republicans that went against him all sucked, and the Democrats backed Hillary.

I remember people saying that they should repeal the maximum 2-term position so Obama could run again. Others countered that you couldn't force him to do another term and if they tried to, you'd end up with the first ever case of a head of state launching a coup so he could oust himself from power.
