Trump seems untouchable because we all make huge conclusions to temporary things.

Voters will tire of his act in due course. Some enjoy his antics, but many of those will not really in the end want him to be POTUS. The job is just too important. Be patient. And that would be my advice to the candidates, except perhaps those trying to generate their own buzz to get into the mix, and have higher visibility. Maybe Christie will go there. They speak the same language.

It never dawns on folks that Trump may well be leading because people agree with him on the issues he emphasizes moreso than they do with other candidates, and that the issues Trump emphasized are more important to a big slice of the GOP than the issues other candidates are emphasizing.

Trump's supporters may be dissed and dismissed as "low information voters", but since Baker v. Carr, it's one-man-one-vote, regardless of the "information" level.  They know where they stand and what they want, and they are tired of the political class trot out it's approved candidates and lecturing them about what they really need.

He's even said he would support a pathway to citizenship, which is the main issue that he was emphasizing. There is no place for Trump sympathizers to go: they just like that he talks back.

Trump states that he would support a pathway to "legal status", not necessarily citizenship, and only for such immigrants that have "done well".

Isn't that the same thing that the Pathwayer's want? Legal status for illegal immigrants if they've worked hard? Trade Agreements are the last thing that would be possible, and that hasn't been an issue in months.
