This is why Hillary lost, the common man has big problem with this, but it was not a priority for Hillary who took tons of money from the tax dodging oligarchs.

I vote for Hillary, but only reluctantly.

So the common man voted for a billionaire oligarch who publicly boasted that avoiding taxes made him smart?

The common man was taken for a sucker.

perhaps. time will tell. but it's definitely clear who the oligarchs were lining up for. And that person was not Trump.

The common man was given a choice for voting for someone who was proven to be against their interests vs. someone who had yet to prove themselves against their interests.

Perhaps the common man was taken for a sucker, but with Hillary rigging the DNC and colluding with the media, the people were not given much of a choice.

Had any real scrutiny been paid to Trump's business dealings or numerous lawsuits, his newly minted persona of anti-establishment populist hero of the people might have seemed as fake to the stereotypical "common man" as it did to everyone else. He publicly supported Hillary Clinton for President and praised her work as Secretary of State before he was running against her...

...and then suddenly she's the most corrupt, incompetent and evil person ever to hold American public office, and Trump would never want to align himself with the system she represents.

When exactly did Trump prove he was for the common man and against the system?

If a key part of your business strategy involves moving your money to an offshore bank account, you're probably a criminal organization.

That isn't even close to a true statement.

You're correct from the perspective of a lawyer or pedant. The GP is correct from the perspective of the common man.

If a key part of your organizational strategy is to tax companies more than your peers and get sad when they leave, you're probably the United States government.
