The difference between Barry Goldwater, Richard Nixon, Ronny Reagan and Donald Trump more or less comes down to personal style and the American commitment to pretend. The only reason "Very Important PeopleTM" in the mainstream discourse have to pretend to be surprised by Trump is that collectively the American establishment has been entirely complicit in creating the political and propaganda conditions necessary to end up at a place where Trump is president, again.
