In some ways Trump’s win is even MORE impressive.
The Democrats have been packing the electorate with millions of third-world voters and indoctrinated young people since 1980. Millions of sane voters have gone to the great polling place in the sky.

So true. If we take a closer look, unlike 1980 California is now royal blue. And the pace of demographic change has overtaken other such natural red states such as Virginia, Nevada, and Colorado. And soon Georgia, N Carolina, Arizona, and even Texas. The ability to radically shake up the electoral map is something only Trump could have pulled off.
Trumps win is more historic than Reagan’s win.
First, EVERYBODY opposed Trump. Even his own party.
Second, places like California, Colorado, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Washington states were all still Republican majority states in 1980. They have only become Democratic dominant since Reagan left office. When you start with California, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Michigan with their total 138 electoral votes, you almost have a Democrat lock on the presidency and a Republican has to make up a hell of a lot of states to counter that.
OK, Texas starts you off with 38, so the Democrat still has a clean 100 vote advantage right out of the box. Reagan did not face that.
Agreed, Reagan ran against the media and the Democrats. Trump ran against everyone, the democrat media, the democrats and the Republican party.
