The way I see it, the presidential campaign has become another kind of television "reality show". The Americans don't have any serious problems right now. Unemployment is lowest ever, one of the few countries in the rich world to be growing, worlds only super power, peace, prosperity and some nice summer weather....so time for silly season.I agree with you that he has very less knowledge on international affairs, but don't you think Pakistan failed to project itself as a responsible state. If this is what a Presidential aspirant understands about Pakistan that he equates Pakistan to North Korea and its mad men, what image ordinary Americans holds about Pakistan
The reason Trump is doing so well is the same as why the baddy gets to stay on longer in reality shows. Eventually about 2 episodes from the finale the baddy is "fired" but till then everyone switches on the show mainly to watch him.
Other than that, the Americans are doing so well, that there is little of a serious nature they need to fix....except Ofcourse the role of money in elections. Surely two Koch brothers can't be worth 200 million ordinary folk....and that issue is not being discussed because the billionaires have everyone (except Trump) in their back pockets.
