No one opposed Trump for fear of alienating his electors or just out of leniency… And now it’s too late for the other republicans.
So what can Trump do to get a better result than Romney?
Democrats are not planning to repeat the republican mistake: they’re going to attack Trump on all fronts and use all possible means; means republicans could have utilized, but they failed to see the need. Now democrats have a lot to exploit: Trump’s misogyny and homophobia, his racist approach, the numerous frauds he’s committed in his financial history; the fact that he has no experience at all at governing.

There is a significant group of voters who love Trump, the angry lot who feel exposed and threatened in the current world. Trump’s call for a ban on Muslim presence or the desire to build a wall on the border with Mexico got him a huge following amongst a part of the masses. They are the reason why Trump won the GOP primary. However, they are also why the ordinary American is simply afraid of Trump; why they will do anything to stop him becoming the president. That shows in the general polls – Trump never tops those.
