I watched every one of those "debates" and it was some very entertaining shows. Trump's insults and slur's against the other "contestants" were funny as hell. The deer in the headlights look on many of their faces plus the fact that many looked scared that they we be next. The one's who tried to talk shit back only made it worse for them. I'm not laughing now because back then I never thought in a million years a guy like Trump would get elected. Never say never. For not being a politician Trump acted like a experience one by getting down in the mud and saying and doing anything. How about the one debate with Hillary where Trump had those woman that Bill supposedly abused sitting in the front row. WTF. Wonder if anyone else enjoyed watching Trump dismantle the rights best in those primaries?

As I have said: People wanted an outsider.  But my belief is that (like myself) they wanted one who was smart and willing to learn the job.  Not an egomaniac that would insist his way is always the right way and never admit to doing anything wrong ever.

Trump was an outsider in the sense of having never been elected to an office.  But he is so connected to the politics of the US (and Russia apparently) that he's as "inside" as any other candidate.

All he did in the primaries is be the character he is on television.  Sadly it is rooted in his own abilities: Small vocabulary, play to the lowest common denominator and promise"yuge" things that will be the "best ever".

"Believe me".
