I do sometimes wonder if this campaign was only ever intended to be a publicity stunt, and maybe Trump just keeps saying crazier and crazier s*** in hopes that it eventually costs him his lead.

Trump: "You stupid idiots. This was all a publicity stunt! Why don't you get it? You've been fooled!" (followed by insane amounts of clapping)

1 week later: Trump up +9 points!

Trump supporter: "That just shows how willing he is to take on political correctness! He will openly tell us voters how stupid we are! No DC politician would do that!"

Remember the adage that bad press is better than no press? Trump is pushing it one step further, that at least with much of the Pub base, or whatever his base is, bad press is not only better than no press, in some ways it is better than good press. It tends to make Trump the center of the universe, and Galileo is not around to remind us that Trump is not the center of the universe. So we are back to the dark ages of ignorance. As I noted before, in my long life, I simply cannot remember when politics was as dumbed down as it is this year.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Agree completely.
But what is more dumb .... Trump's politics or the people who support him ?
