Trump is not a conservative. If you are one, I have no idea why you are heartened by his election.
This is a weird red herring.
Also, people like you who try to polarize things further by assuming everyone is 100% democrat or 100% republican never seem to graduate past elementary understanding of the world and it's workings.
You don't have to be a hardcore republican to agree with some (or even all) of Trump's views or policies. And furthermore, many of us revel in the joy of seeing the smugness slapped right off the faces of people who were just so sure Clinton was the Chosen One. The smug sense of moral (among other forms of) superiority many people proudly wear like a badge still won't get Clinton elected president. Her supporters have had an awfully, awfully difficult time reconciling this fact.
The collective temper tantrums of many of her supporters/voters around the country have been embarrassing but extremely entertaining.
I'm certainly not saying Trump will be a great president. He may not even be a particularly good one. But since I don't believe Hillary would be any better, those factors cancel out. We are left with the joy of watching a bunch of special snowflakes and SJWs cry into their gluten-free coconut water over what they just know in their hearts could've and should've been.
I hope America can be great again.
