Pundits getting wrong again. It is more than Trump's personality. His issues of immigration, jobs, and trade are resonating with Americans. The other candidates are weak on these issues. The GOPe didn't want the issue of immigration even raised during the campaign.
The media is so surface that they don’t have the ability to see past the surface level Trump down into to the deadly serious businessman that plays to win and knows what he is doing.
It’s like being a boat in the middle of the ocean after an earthquake and not sensing the tsunami that just ran past you and is about to hit the shore.
