I am about as far from what Trump stands for as you could get, and I'd be lying if I said I have not found him appealing on occasions. There was a recent experiment in which they measured the brain waves of a mix of people listening to Trump. You should watch that clip. Dems, Independents, and Republicans alike were all having a positive emotional reaction to him.

Politics is mostly a matter of biology and psychology. Very few people are able to be cerebral about it. Trump will do a lot better than Hillary on animalistic reaction. So her success will boil down to how much she can get people to act on their brains rather than their hearts. Bernie on other hand has no problem inspiring people.
