Dick Schoof (yes, English speakers, that really is his legal name) is our Trump?

I'd say Geert Wilders matches that description, and he did not become PM...

Dick Schoof didn't get elected though, at least not by the people... Wilders was

Correction: Wilders received the most votes from the people, but could not become PM as his party needed to form coalitions to gain enough seats. Essentially, he did not get elected PM because most others did not want to work together with him.

Was our parliament filled with lunatics vehemently agreeing with him, we'd have Wilders as PM.
