Trump summarized

Sometimes one simple paragraph can explain and resolve a seeming phenomenon:

Not that there was ever really a good path that Trump could take to portray himself as suitable for occupying the White House. Without his bombast as a distraction, his utter lack of experience and qualifications will quickly become the story. He’s painted himself into a corner where the headlines will either be about what an asshole he is or what an idiot he is, and right now, there’s just no good way for the campaign to fix the situation.

beware of underestimating him the way many did W...they may be intellectually deficient but they're shrewd...trump knows his audience and the power of his celebrity status, so while smart and discerning folks dismiss him the rest may well end up supporting him...
