Trump won because his presence was felt the most. But nothing of any substance came out of his mouth. John Kasich has much better things to say, but he's a bump on a log compared to Trump. People gravitate towards personality, even shitty, boisterous ones.
I hate Mike Huckabee, but I like his tax ideas. Same for Ben Carson. Do away with the income tax and make it based on consumption.
