The internet and many of the social media tools give the electorate a much more powerful voice than they had at the time of the founding fathers. Trump is ideal in motivating these people to be vocal.

Trump is basically leading the "silent majority?"

The opposition party controls the press.

Look at the multitude of protests organized via Facebook, twitter, and other forms of social media.
