Have you read the linked article? If not, do it.
When I wrote this piece I thought about writing about your topic, but I decided against it. It is quite a different.. ah, spin. And I could/would make it several pages more. Too long.
What you say is congruent to a lot of "uprisings". In the USA Bernie Sanders. In the UK... forgot his name. In Germany the extreme right wing AfD. Other "hold them accountable" right wing movements, using hate of asylum seekers, are strong. In Island we have the Pirate Party probably getting the most votes next(?) weekend. Even in Japan, if you count the green+transparency movement, there is a deep feeling of people not getting their rights.
In a way even the arab spring could be counted in this list. All those movements have at least a little part from the indignation against the banks that crushed the economy in 2007 and where the banksters got bonuses for it.
Your linked article describes a WikiLeak where the Dems figured Trump would be easy to beat. Hence, the MSM gave Trump favorable coverage until the minute he secured the nomination. Since then they've been 91% negative in one study.
As usual, the Left was wrong to think Trump was a weak general election candidate. The media would have destroyed any Republican candidate, and Trump was easily the most appealing of the bunch. He is promoting modern or neo-conservatism, which is traditional Americanism (see Understanding Trump).
Micheal Moore, a far left Hillary supporter, said this last week that Trump will win because the forgotten people in our corrupt system are going to give an historic huge middle finger to the ruling establishment. I hope he's right.
