Of course he has a big ego, he's been successful in life so far and has now been given a massive audience through this campaign.

So far, his theories in these areas have proven to be quite accurate, given Trump's success defies most conventional logic and expectations. It isn't about facts, policies, or scandals (I mean the man insulted John McCain and POWs in his first month campaigning), but rather how you manage voters emotions.

Once you stop looking at it through the lens of facts and policies, and more through emotions, the results to date start to make a whole lot more sense.
It might explain Trump's relative success, but it certainly doesn't "make sense" that these are the grounds that the election should be fought on.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
