The Donald subreddit was big, but the writing was on the wall that Trump was about to lose, and /r/politics + /r/SandersforPresident + /r/AOC have always been bigger and more popular. It was a very easy decision for reddit.

The user count on r/thedonald was frozen as to not influence popularity, you are likely wrong about their relative size.
