r/ the_donald (and his presidential run) was also a literal joke. They planned it that way. Get people to go along with the funny jokes, and then make people unsure if it's a joke or not. (And if anyone tried to remind people it was just a joke they were banned within seconds.

They're still using that same play from 2015 constantly.

Without heavy moderation, and the leeway from Reddit admins, I don't think he gets elected. I could be wrong about Reddit's influence, after all, I know the same was happening on Facebook and 4chan. But with the way Reddit was leading memes at the time, that seemed to be the real fuel, which could then spread elsewhere.
