Was Trump a "Fortunate Son" during the Vietnam War? Most likely he was.
Was he a "Fortunate Son" during the 2016 election, with all of the establishment Republican party, 90% of the media, big tech etc against him? It's arguable that he was not.

You’re buying into an underdog narrative that doesn't match with the facts. Also the media may have been “against” him but they gave him thousands of hours of free coverage. “Big tech” may have been against him, but they handed him his platform in the first place.
Agreed, but it's all relative :-) Would have been more or less favoured than Jeb Bush, for instance?

They definitely ripped that back off him.
