You beat the worst president in history. You beat him by making the campaign about him; his record, his hideous personal behavior, the reeking cloud of corruption, and his broken economic promises made him unelectable for even a decent campaign, and you ran—shockingly—a decent campaign. His divisive, shitty, be-worst reign was a stain and an embarrassment. He tried to make it a referendum on policy, not a referendum on himself, and you never let him. You went into a reality-television contest understanding the rules, and you beat the master of the genre at his own game.
