The wheels fell off Trump's campaign a few weeks into his campaign. It must be a sign of divine intervention he's managed to keep it into a controlled skid for over a year. Maybe Pope Francis can get him canonized.

See as evidence this post of mine from the summer of 2015:

Is Trump really a train wreck if he's consistently leading in national and state polls? Sure, his campaign is held up by what I can only assume is some form of dark magic or the most elaborate prank of all time, but it's held up nonetheless.

When did Bush begin losing support? 2005, after Hurricane Katrina, and when the Iraq war began to hit small town America hard, when everyone knew someone who had lost a son or daughter in Iraq. And then when the economic slowdown of 2006 hit, they began to flip on the GOP.

Well, Bush really started losing support a few days after 9/11. It was just that 9/11 was such an enormous bounce for him that he could afford to bleed support and still win in '04. And for the record, Trump's approval right now is pretty comparable to Bush's after Hurricane Katrina.
