He is a complete idiot in 99/100 disciplines ... in his ability to


manipulate a media narrative and personal PR, he is a genius. He had essentially zero political machine in place and beat a bunch of practiced politicians with massive staff, research, ad buys etc in the primary. In the general, he had the tepid - at best - support of the RNC and a significant part of the party that didn’t like him ... not to mention an opposition party that painted him as essentially Hitler (“and for real this time”). All that and he still won ... because of his ability to manipulate the media IMO.
