Marketing a Candidate: Donald Trump

Today, when it comes to the subject of Donald Trump, his name can turn people against each other. The majority of Americans fear Trump's presidency. But within those Americans, half of them believe that he will truly make America great again because of the fact that he is unpredictable and is unafraid to do the impossible, therefore can scare away terrorists or other "enemies" of the country. Meanwhile, the other half believe that Trump will create conflicts between Americans, as he already has, and destroy the American symbol of freedom.
After stating all these facts why exactly is Donald Trump so popular? And how did he manage to become a presidential candidate at all when he does everything that a presidential candidate shouldn't be doing to attract electors and gain the favor of so many Americans? Three of the main factors that give him popularity are :

 1) Donald Trump had a Television Personality, so his campaign is not only attracting politicians(or people who enjoy politics) and news channels/ papers/ magazines, but also people who enjoyed his business show and the paparazzi.

2) He mixes his, as well as other candidate's personal and professional life together, which creates many shocking reveals and accusations that occur. Which, sadly, is something people enjoy watching these days.

3) His ridiculous propositions are very straightforward and are exactly what many Americans want to argue, but are not brave enough to do so. Which gains him a lot of attention that are, many of the times, negative.
Despite the fact that he is making many blunders in his campaign and as a presidential candidate, I believe he is doing just right in marketing himself because he is getting all the attention he needs. Enough attention to gain as many followers, who have the same mindset as he does, to maybe even win this election. Though, there are some things that I think should change, and that includes the fact that he is insulting great leaders of our country, such as our current president, Barack Obama. This could seriously backfire, for instance, he may go down as the most disrespectful presidential candidate or maybe president in the U.S history and create a bad image on himself. Another thing is the fact that he keeps on changing his propositions and denying actions committed by himself, even though there is solid proof that he did do those things. If he changed all that, I believe people would have more respect for him and consider him more as a possible president of the United States of America.
