Wonder why it took so long. Is it the general sense of having least government involvement as possible, or lobbying?

That is just because of inequality those populists feed on, while at the same time being rich. However, being unconvential, having a sound media strategy, and no doubt being helped by (foreign?) disinformation - they quickly gain a foothold
