He's pandering to the lower inbred class, on both sides of politics. Yea he says a lot of fancy shit but it's hilarious that his rhetoric is really no different than the shit other equally ridiculous candidates have said, the only difference is he's louder about them. And while yes our whole media is giving him their full undivided attention, he won't win the presidency no matter what those polls with outdated information gathering methods say. The type of people he's attracting are the type that never vote, and those that do vote normally vote for the most batshit crazy conservative politicians. I foresee him not getting the Republican nomination, which is one of two major parties that participate in the televised debates for the presidency, and then creating an Independent party. This will actually screw the republican party and ensure another democrat wins the office.

not a chance in hell.... considering the popular vote. but alas; the ever "democratic" USA actually relies on the electoral college votes to decide the winner of the presidential candidacy. meaning all the votes of your average citizen are honestly worth nothing in the end. it comes down to whoever has bought off the most politicians.
which brings me to my next point. even considering that; trump stands no chance. jeb bush or hillary clinton certainly have more people in their pocket than trump; guaranteed. i actually read an article where bill & bush referred to it as " the family business" lol. makes me sick. here is a fascinating article.
luckily everything is not all bad.... presidential candidate bernie sanders has a very good chance of winning. ( the popular vote) he is currently appealing to anybody with half a brain. he is literally the only person not bought by the federal reserve or some other political elite. it is a well known fact that millennials now outnumber the baby boomers ( and their outdated propaganda filled rhetoric) by a large majority. slowly but surely lies and corruption are being drawn out. a large chasm exists between the old classes and the ones emerging; i foresee serious upheaval in the near future... and this is just the social aspect. the economy is about to seriously hit the fan ;)
trump and all those corporate whores are nothing but an embarrassment. i will be damned if we have ANY more years of these sociopathic mongrels

Today In My US Government class we were talking about him.
I think this guy is a joke, That Univision reporter asked him about a statement he said about mexicans and illegal Immigrants and he replies "Go back to Univision" And proceeds to put the reporters mobile number on blast online. For a guy that wants to be president he does some really childish shit. If he has the balls to say some dumb shit, be a man and own up to it and dont avoid it by kicking out the reporter.

Isn't the problem that they might do it if they get someone they can relate more too? Also, I have read somwhere that he has tried for presidency a couple of times before but stopped when asked about his finances

Oh don't feed these people this stupidass electoral college shit. The electoral vote is determined by the popular vote in each state, so yes voting DOES count. It is designed to be a winner-take-all system, but so far the popular vote has still succeeded in choosing the president for over a hundred years until 2000.
The main problem with the more recent loss due to the electoral college (Gore VS Bush in 2000) is because of the lack of voter turnout. Out of about almost 200k eligible voters, only 54% of those managed to get off their asses and go vote. Al Gore lost by the narrowest of margins in Florida, less than 600 votes out of almost 6 million, and he lost New Hampshire as well by less than 2% of the votes, which is a surprise because ever since Clinton was president it's been a solid Democratic-voting state. And even looking at the 2004 election with Bush VS Kerry, there were a lot of close races in a good number of states where the popular vote between both of them was less than 5%, some even less than 1%. Kerry could have won that election if voter turnout was higher. It was definitely higher than in 2000, but at 60% that's still not by much.
Historically, liberals/Democrats have always been part of the problem when it comes to low voter turnout. It's the reason why Republicans always win big during mid-term elections, that party has never had a major issue with low voter turnout. Even those liberals/Democrats that even bother to vote, only do it during the presidential elections, and that needs to change. The US is far more liberal than people realize, but unless more of them don't come out to vote in 2016, our country won't reflect that. There are enough liberals in this country that would make people realize that the electoral college is a non-issue, but that's not going to happen unless they get off their asses, register to vote, and vote Democrat.

Then I say let them stay on their asses. These 8 years of Obama will be more than enough liberal crap for the next 1000 years.

I'm not a huge fan of Trump, but I'm not sure why you picked this particular video as an example or why this has anything to do with the world imploding. One thing I have learned through my experience with Europeans, though, is that foreigners don't get America and they probably shouldn't try to. All they do is throw around silly little phrases like those last two lines in your post.

He has been doing a stellar job considering the 8 years of shit he inherited from a Republican.

I think had Colbert Report still been around, Jon Stewart would have stuck around longer. I can't see Trevor Noah satisfying the fans of The Daily Show, so it's as good as dead I think.
Thankfully John Oliver and Bill Maher are still around.

Never really liked John Oliver that much. I watch it, but its not "great". He underlines the jokes too much.
Jon Stewart just had a weird way to talk. Like he mumbles half the sentence then shouts few random words. Only watched an episode here and there.

ya'll need to watch this video; then ask yourself which candidate does not support the actions of the corrupt in question.
there is only 1 party boys; and it is named the WAR party. forget the elephant & donkey farce.... they both represent the interests of the overwhelmingly wealthy instead of the 99%. ( occupy wall street anyone?)
usa government is a flat out joke. the rest of the world definitely knows it. hey; just give us some time; we will improve; i swear!
