Trump was trailing in the polls. Now he is neck and neck with Hilary. Not only do the majority of voters not trust the first woman to run for President, but there is now a health issue and a monumental gaffe, attacking Trump’s supporters as worthless sink people or words to that effect. These mishaps certainly mean she is losing at the moment, even if she manages to make it in the end.
Her problem is that her presidential campaign, oiled and structured as a super powerful election machine running on rails, comes off them at the slightest bump. Her opponent by contrast is not running a presidential campaign in the traditional sense. He is running a Trump campaign, which is quite different. It is neither oiled nor structured, nor does it run on rails. It meanders at will in all directions. The more provocative and outrageous Trump’s rhetoric, the more support her attracts. Where people are supposed to be repelled, they flock to his call. There are two reasons for this. Trump’s campaign is not about the Presidency, it is about him. His message is direct. I can fix your life and make it better. And unlike Hilary who speaks to the people, Trump speaks with them.
All we can say for sure is that Trump is no longer just a funny. He might just be the future.
