A niche group of political scientists may have uncovered what's driving Donald Trump's ascent. What they found has implications that go well beyond 2016.

Nice post. Thank you. It goes along with the republican structure also. The Republican network appears more hierarchical than the Democratic one. http://enikrising.blogspot.com/2009/08/do-parties-do-things-differently.html . The party did not challenge him good enough at first, and let him build good momentum. Trump is the ego/ID come back to haunt the republican party. 2014 hierarchical clustering by the 100 Senators and 398 Representatives who use Twitter. http://duckpond.wesleyan.edu/twitter-project/2014/01/03/co-occurences-of-congress-members/ A few key factors play into it all though. Again thank you for the link.
