It was only nine short months ago that there were 17 candidates running in the Republican Primary election. Week after week, month after month the pundits and television talking heads kept reassuring their viewers that there was no way Donald Trump would win the nomination.

We heard things like "This is just a temporary trend" and "His reality TV act won't last" and "his race baiting, misogynistic, xenophobic demagoguery can't succeed" and yet one by one, the Republicans dropped out of the race much to the dismay of the experts and the RNC. Two years ago, the experts and pundits also predicted that the 2016 election would be Hillary against Jeb. Hillary had already been pre-ordained by DNC insiders and Jeb was busy building up a $100M war chest to finance his campaign to fight against Hillary.

Hillary and Jeb are cut from the same cloth. They're both centrist, establishment candidates that are completely out of touch with the American people. Both have raised enormous amounts of corporate money to help put them into the White House and both had the support of their respective parties. Trump took down Jeb with hardly any effort so what does portend for the general election against Hillary? When you look at the attempts she is making in her speeches to attack Trump, she's using exactly the same arguments that Jeb and the other 15 Republican candidates failed miserably at making.

What's Wrong With This Picture?

Frankly, when you watch this video below, Hillary looks like she doesn't know what she's doing. In fact, her body language and demeanor suggests that she's terrified about running against Trump. Watch this:

"The only thing standing between Donald Trump and the Oval Office is all of us" Hillary says. No Hillary, the only thing standing in the way of Donald Trump not being in the Oval Office is you. The only campaign that you can run in the general election that will work successfully against Trump is that you're not an establishment candidate. You can borrow as many of Bernie's talking points as you'd like, but you can't borrow Bernie's integrity and you can't borrow his anti-establishment appeal.

In this short clip (above), Hillary sounds an awful bit like Mike Huckabee, Bobby Jindal, Ted Cruz, Jeb!, Chris Christie, Rand Paul and the rest of the field that attacked Trump, only to see him knock them out of the race. Was she too busy rigging the Democratic Primaries to notice attacking Trump like this is feckless? These types of attacks are not only useless in convincing Trump supporters to vote for her, but they motivate more people to go out and register so they can vote for him. Apart from the 'Vote Blue' faction of die hard Democrats, politics as usual simply isn't going to work this year.

Trump has proven he's not a politics as usual candidate and so has Bernie and it's obvious to the most casual observer that establishment politics are not going to work like they have in the past. As much as the RNC party hating capitulating to The Donald, they're thrilled right now knowing that he's got the best shot at beating Hillary.

What Hillary, the DNC and the pundits have all grossly miscalculated is just how unhappy the American people are with corrupt politicians manipulating the system for their own selfish ambitions. The Democratic establishment is in such denial of this that they're risking not only the future of the U.S., but the population of the entire planet by stubbornly sticking to their insider candidate. For almost a year, establishment operatives and media pundits have failed to adapt to information suggesting a paradigm shift is underway. The irony here is that this is exactly why people hate establishment politics and are willing to vote for Trump. Washington insider's agility and willingness to move with the will of the people is virtually non-existent because they're totally out of touch with the average American.

If Hillary were a true patriot, she would leave the race now. The writing is on the wall; Trump will dispatch Hillary just like he did the other 16 Republican candidates. One way or another, Hillary is going to lose. She'll either lose in the primary, or she'll lose to Trump in the fall. Don't take it personally Hillary, this isn't about you. Trump ran the table with 16 other Establishment candidates and he'll do the same with her unless she can convince the American people that she's not part of the establishment.

Good Luck with that.
