I'm not sure if you're just pretending to be stupid, but Trump has undergone the process of building up a business five hundred times. Of these, four of those times were objective failures. Your hypothetical grandfather did it once and was successful once. Even with four failures, Trump would have far more reputability than your grandfather because he's demonstrated success four hundred and ninety five more times.
Don't act dumb.

Trump was rising prior, but his rise accelerated when he debated. One could argue the debates helped him win states Ted Cruz was supposedly guaranteed to take.
So again, you admit that your baseball analogy was garbage?
Again, it is hard to argue with someone who refuses to see trumps racism and xenophobia, despite being provided evidence multiple times.
Your world simply doesn't exist, and I have trouble believing anything you say at all.
This is one thing I keep hearing Trump supporters say that I really need explained. Now it is one thing to be the primary financial backer that lets you slap your name on a business while someone else actually runs it . As long as you got money a person could "erect" 1000 businesses! (doesn't that just make you an investor tho?)
But there is no way in hell one person actually ran and managed 500 business. No. Way. In. Hell. There isn't enough time, at all.
And for the record, a college level course in statistics/polling show that it's very easy to skew answers by changing the questions.
To take a very sarcastical example, an opinion poll about the love toward King Georges III would have very different results if the question had been ''do you love the secretely papist german alleged King ?'' vs ''do you love your legitimate and glorious ruler''
"The Trump Organization has interests in real estate development, investing, brokerage, sales and marketing, and property management. The company owns, operates, invests, and develops residential real estate, hotels, resorts, residential towers, and golf courses in different countries, as well as owning several hundred thousand square feet of prime Manhattan real estate. It lists involvement in 515 subsidiaries and entities with 264 of them bearing Trump's name and another 54 including his initials."
Trump became the nominee because there was so much money in the GOP primary race, that candidates did not need to exit, splitting the vote. When it came down to the last 5, the others split the vote too much, and Trump took the lead for good on Super Tuesday. Trump is not good at actual debates, he's fine at slinging mud... which is what the GOP debates were. I think there's a quote about wrestling with pigs that applies.
Clinton doesn't take direct criticism and mudslinging well. She a hot head that likes yes men and those that have been bought need to stay in their place. She lies just as much if not more than Trump. If there is a person that can make her come unhinged and show her for the screwball she is it is Trump. If she gets in office with a Republican majority in the Senate you can make a strong bet that the Clintons will be the first husband wife presidents and the first husband and wife to both be impeached.

*Best choice of person with a shot at winning. I am strongly considering writing in Sanders just to show the DNC how big of a mistake they made. The problem with polls is that they assume that anyone that voted Sanders in the primary will vote Clinton.
Trump doesn't take direct criticism very well, that's how it all started. I cannot stand Hillary, but she's going to stomp Trump in an actual debate. As for Hillary getting impeached, they will have to have some sort of justification for it. Sure, she's a shitty human being, but she's wouldn't be the first president to be a shitty human being. I think it could easily be argued that most of our presidents were.

Why do you feel the need to vote for someone who will actually win?

Well, Rasmussen has been very unreliable in the past few years. Their methodology can legitimately be questioned.
The Trump Organization
Well that's the real kicker isn't it? The Trump Organization isn't running for president, Trump is. I want to know what business he personally had a significant hand in, not what his organization did for him, not what he put his money behind, but what he actually put time and effort into and made real decisions for. I'll admit I'm no business major, but maybe that means it's those 54 that really matter?
Basically, saying everything The Trump Organization has done can be directly attributed to the daily actions and decisions of Trump himself would be the same thing as saying that everything the Clinton Foundation has done can be directly attributed to the daily actions and decisions of Hillary. Except we know what Hillary has been up too, being a public figure for some time and all.
