"Trump makes outrageous, superficially exaggerated or false statements almost as often as he exhales. But they’re not easily disproved, at least gracefully. It’s not as if anyone could perform a health and fitness survey of every president since Washington. In any case, rivals are hoping that Trump’s arrogance and almost perpetually boorish personality will eventually alienate his supporters into their own camps. So, they have little political incentive to stoop to his level, hoping he’ll implode without any of them having to get caught pressing the button. Can you imagine a Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton unveiling the results of a months-long fact-finding mission into Trump’s library of half-truths, exaggerations, or outright lies? Their campaigns know that would do them more harm than good. The type of person who tends to believe Trump’s proclamations also tends to be immune to reason. For an establishment candidate, getting down in the muck with Trump is not a good look—particularly if your entire campaign strategy (for more centrist Republicans) hinges on framing yourself as the anti-Trump. The anti-wacko. The–for better or worse–anti-“telling it like it is."
