Some asshole sucker punches a protester and goes on camera saying next time we might have to kill him...next day Trump is doing interview suggesting he'll pay his legal fees. More and more though it seems the 'movement-anger-mistrust' of politicians leading him rather than other way around. He will certainly be the Republican candidate at which time we'll possibly get a definitive plan or policy on something and less double speak and emotional red meat. Shit, the guy is more of a politician than many are willing to admit.
You're making the fantastic assumption that GOP candidates eventually come up with plans and policies.

Other than massive tax cuts, deregulation of business and the financial industry and making government smaller none of them ever have plans or policies. They're a party that believe that government doesn't work and when they get elected they set about proving it.

Voters in this election have the choice between an extreme nominee (Trump, Cruz) or voting for a moderate Republican (Hillary). Everybody except Trump is a more of the same politician (free trade, no regulation of Wall Street, immigrant/cheap labour-friendly corporate servant government) but at least Trump is offering something a little different with the trade and the wall. That could attract a lot of voters.

More to say on this.
