I must be the only guy (who isn't a supporter) that actually thinks more of Trump since he got the nomination. I never thought he'd pull it off (until a few months ago maybe). Not only that, but between him and Sanders, there has been a huge change in what is considered presidential rhetoric. I'm not talking about the anti Mexican comments or anything, just his general manner of speaking. The truth is, some very smart people are learning a lot from Trump atm.

Before this, I figured he was a guy who did the very manageable feat of turning 200 million, and upper class background, and a primo education into a 3-4 billion (or whatever). Like most people that do this very unexceptional thing of starting rich and becoming richer, Trump assumed it was because of something particularly great about him.

No matter how you cut it though, it is not fucking easy or ever certain to get a nomination from one of the two big parties in America. So he obviously has something going for him.

I still think he'd likely be a terrible president.
