    Good theories. But it doesn’t match the present reality. Why is Donald Trump still the frontrunner today for the Republican Party?

    Koch backs others. DeSantis has plenty of backers. Etc. etc. Its certainly not money or data anymore.


    Donald Trump IS a troll. He’s a master troll. You can’t ignore him because he sucks in the world and with his discussion style convinces plenty of people to follow him. “Ignore the troll” is the stupidest piece of advice you can give for someone like Donald Trump. He doesn’t give a shit about you, his allies or anyone else. And people LIKE him because of that, because people like asshole leaders in practice.
