I have a hard time believing he'll win because the establishment always wins.

Even Ronald Reagan being the exception took him 3 tries.

I don’t see any establishment candidate (at least the ones out there currently, maybe there is someone they are saving to pull out of their hat later) having any chance, I know its politics and anything can happen, but I honestly don’t see it.

I can’t say ideological he’s my first choice, and yes even his rally speeches I have seen, are disjointed and rambling, but they are honest, he’s connecting. Yes, to a certain extent there is a cult of personality going on, and he certainly is a celebrity that gets him attention, but there is something real going on with him and that’s something no one else on either side of the isle has or will have.

He is connecting, and he’s connecting on a very simple concept and he is coming across completely genuine when he talks about it. In other times in our history I would write him off, but given how horrifically badly the entire political class on both sides of the isle has screwed the pooch, he’s going to get a wide berth, so no little slip up or mistake is going to take him out, and no traditional politician is going to be able to take him down, because he is being fearless about his criticisms, he’s not couching them or worrying if someone gets upset, he’s calling a spade a spade as he sees it, and that makes it impossible for a traditional politician in the modern age to take him on because they all are intrinsic in their being to avoid confrontation not embrace it.

Ronald Reagan wasn’t a junkyard dog, Trump is! Trump is a Political Patton, and it’s time for a real war for our political soul. He will leave Hilary’s merkin hanging on a fence somewhere.
