Trump is an American version (to some extent) of Silvio Berlusconi, who was a three times Prime Minister of Italia. Trump has way more power, but there are similarities in his media background and personality. There are significant differences in personality and the complicated and varied politics of the changing United States.
Today National Public Radio did an article on the leaps made in the Hispanic community by the Republicans this election, which are going to be credited to Trump and are likely to be lasting.

I've been ignoring a lot of the blame shuffling going on but I think that article is a keeper.
