dont be silly. it was a very close race. trump won the "tipping point state" (which is the one that got him to 270+ votes if you line up all the states he won by his winning margin, in descending order) by a margin of just 0.7%.
2000 was of course the closest election ever, but other than that, 2016 was the closest election since 1960 if you go by what really counts, which is how much of a shift it would have taken to change the outcome of the election, instead of the raw electoral college margins.
It was certainly closer than anyone thought it would be, regardless of outcome. Many people thought Hillary would easily sweep it with Trump standing no chance. Indeed, it was a nail-biting night when Trump was supposedly going to tip PA and WI and they had to recount several times to make sure he did in fact win those states.
In the end, Trump really did make it seem a lot easier than it was. Just goes to show how desperate the world is for a strong man who gives zero fucks about the liberal crybabies.

thats why democrats want open borders now, to replace the mentally enslaved blacks that are waking up - with illegals, to farm votes on them instead/aswell
with 0 care that they spit in the face of legal immigrants and the same blacks that voted for them for decades, since illegals accept cheaper work and dive wages down that hurts blacks primarily
thats why they didnt accept the generous DACA deal Trump offered, they cant have earned citizenship for illegals in XX years, they need to give it away for free now
I think everyone is waking up. Even if Trump did absolutely nothing in his four years in office, his election would still be a huge victory. It's a symbol that ordinary people disgruntled with the absurdity of the far-left agenda can take on the liberal elites and win.
There are many people who are absolutely appalled by illegal immigration. They want strict voter ID laws to be put into place. Of course, many people don't voice this opinion publicly as they're still scared of the liberal mob. However, Trump's success and people waking up in general is really weakening the left. People are starting to speak up and I think Democrats are going to have a very hard time winning elections unless they radically change their platform.
