America "dodged the bullet" on Election Day with a rejection of Hillary Clinton, writer and filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza told Newsmax TV.
In an interview with host Joe Pagliarulo on "The Joe Pags Show," D'Souza, the author of "Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party," said there was "a terrifying array of forces against" Donald Trump, as well as a "revolt against Trump" within the GOP.
"The country dodged the bullet on Tuesday in a way that I don't even think most Americans realize," he declared. "Simply by keeping [the Clintons] out of the White House and, in a sense, retiring Hillary from politics — that's a huge accomplishment." "How Trump managed to pull it off, I'm still slightly in shock," he added.
He said, however, the president-elect will have to be "at this point, very careful" of the political establishment in Washington.
"He should recognize that he's an outsider to politics and the people who are in the game are very cunning and they have been manipulating the game for a long time," he said. "They're going to try to manipulate him and they're going to try to draw him into the swamp that he's supposed to be draining."
D'Souza noted President Barack Obama, for example, is "hoping at this point to con Trump into keeping some elements of Obamacare."
"This is his best hope to salvage Obamacare which is the signature aspect of his legacy," he said. "I don't think that Trump is dumb enough to go for it."

Dinesh is still slightly in shock? He hasn’t been observing DJT for the last 17 months
I honestly thought it (Pres. Hillary) was about to happen.
I thought Donald had too many well funded enemies on both left and right. They would cheat and not allow him to win.
So glad I was wrong. Apparently, we Deplorables outnumbered the fascist pit bulls and rusty robots.
my worst fear of Hillary was real estate. if she was President in 2017, most home values would of dropped, but thanks to all who voted for Trump, they should go up!!!!
When the police round up the Clintoonie/Soros snowflakes, they should put them in a cell and force them to watch D’Sousa’s “Hillary’s America”. If that doesn’t get them right in the head, leave them in there and throw away the key.
Come on! He’s been observing more astutely than the average bear, to be sure. This win was a shock by almost every definition, notwithstanding those who say they saw it coming all along.

God saved our ass again.
At 11:59 P.M.!
The fight ain't over...it's only just beginning.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho! God Bless Texas!
The strange irony is that VA Terry McAuliffe restored voting rights to 60,000 felons but Dinesh D’Sous’s voting rights were stripped away. That movie was his retaliation.
Hi! What the hell is this IF shit? Just asking...
We didn't outnumber them. She won the popular vote. She won the cities. We won the EC, but we didn't win a mandate.
We dodged one bullet, but more are incoming, so we'd damn well better not go back to sleep. This fight is only starting.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
You're right and here comes the first salvo ..
What do you mean we didn’t win a mandate.
304 to 309 isn’t a mandate?
Obama did great damage to America in his reign, a Hillary win would have parlayed far more damage.
Yeah, I’d say we dodged a bullet.
