Beating trump isn’t hard.

He won three out of four primaries, and two out of three general elections. It seems... pretty fucking hard.

Only hard for those as incompetent as the dnc

Well, he won his own party primaries too, and by a landslide. So it's not just the DNC that can't beat him. People are still trying to play by the old playbook where things like qualifications, competency, and sanity matter. Trump is out there doing something that absolutely works, telling the people whatever they want to hear, regardless of how stupid, impossible, or untrue it is.

Like him or not, one thing is very clear: Trump has basically redefined the political metagame.

Trump plays dirty. He's threaten to run as an independent and split the R vote.
