I'm not sure how I feel about Sanders but I definitely see Trump falling down the polls at some point. He can't hang with the experienced politicians in the debates once questions arise about his policy platform. He doesn't seem to have one. At least nothing he cares to share with us. Yes, there is still a year to go but at some point he has to explain how he is going to "build better bridges, better highways" etc... all the while lowering taxes at the same time. He speaks in sound bites. He is getting support from the conservative voters who feel like they aren't being heard, that their problems are being ignored. These are people desperate to "matter" again after 7 years of the lefty president in office. Trump will ride that wave as long as possible but that wave will crash at some point in my opinion. For now, Trump is resonating with the "working man", the blue collar types. He is the enemy of the working man and they will see that soon enough in my opinion.
Then again, Rob Ford got elected and had a lot of support right up until the end so what the heck do I know.
