I see ppl claiming other GoP candidates would have beaten Hilary. How come they couldn't beat Trump then?
i don't think superior performance on those kinds of technical merits is anything much to do with Trump's primary

well even ppl who hated him were talking about that trick of "These candidates are buyable. I know. I bought them"

or the time when they were asked to promise they wouldn't run as independants, and Trump straight out said 'I won't'
-
sure, but he didn't win the primary because he told the story better, he won it because he told a different story
-
the main story he told was just "I'm different" that's all it took.
-
nah. he told the strongman story. i'm a winner. i'm the best. i'll crush my foes. i'm what you want to be.
-
strong candidates would have burst his bubble, made him look ridiculous, but they didn't
-
yeah, or maybe taken one for the team. Cruz + Rubio together never had less than Trump's numbers til both went down.
-
but "strong" is contextual. vileness is a weakness in the general in a way that it isn't in the Republican primary.
-
he's a blowhard and a buffoon. The candidates could have buried him with his own past.

he very effectively played the other candidates making them look dishonest, himself appalling but honest...
