A guy like Kasich or Bush, your typical vanilla Republican would win the election easily. That is why the mainstream media gave all the free coverage to Trump during primaries. Fact is Trump is a friend of Clintons. He could care less about politics or being the president. He doesn't believe in what he says. His immigration stance is straight out of Ann Coulter's book. He showed he knows nothing about abortion (late term abortion a week before birth? That is called c-section you dummy). Hillary will win easily. Trump will get his TV channel. Bill and Donald will laugh to the bank. Republican base is bunch of idiots who can all easily be fooled.
Much of what you say is spot on except Trump's collusion or intentions.
Trump ran for two reasons:
as a middle finger to Obama whom he hates with a passion (the video Obama roasting Trump at the press dinner is on youtube if you haven't seen it)
and
as a way to stoke his public profile and cash in on that
Trump is all about the following things:
Benjamins
Young Pussy
Revenge
Fame
That's it. He has nothing else wired into his motherboard. His only interest in politics is in how it affects his personal bottom line.
So, yes, he suckered tens of millions of gullible dupes. He is their P.T. Barnum and they got what they deserved.
His base projected their dreams upon him and he farted back loudly and they approved.
But he hates the Obamas and just because he joined Bill for the teen slumber parties at Lolita Island doesn't mean Trump has been a friend of the Clintons for a long time.
The reality of it is Trump himself thought he'd catch some buzz, but not capture the nomination. When he did his feverish little twitter brain started to think he could be actually do this.
Let's not forget this is a guy whom supposedly kept a copy of Mein Kampf on his night table. He has said admiring things about the strength of Putin and Mussolini.
What the Trump faithful don't get is Hitler was a failure of a man and not very smart. Smarter than Trump, but in no ways brilliant. Hitler was surrounded by much smarter men who drove the Nazi machine to where it went. Hitler was essentially the lady on the bow of the ship, but not the architect of the Third Reich.
Trump blundered into this. He did not do a handshake deal with Hillary Clinton.
Yes, it was perfect for Clinton, but that does not make the conspiracy theory true.
Face it, the Republican field mostly stunk to high heaven. That, plus the simple fact we live in a TV world that was in love with the train wreck called Trump only because it was good business.
Saying the "media" colluded with the DNC to promote Trump is just over the top and untrue.
What is true is the "media" by and large hates Trump because he is a dictator in the making who would try to put them out of business.
So what the press and TV shows did was promote his stupidity. It got them ratings and sank the knife in his back simultaneously.
He got what he deserved is what happened.
