He will likely get the most votes but not enough to be the nominee. And then
the Republican party will pick someone else.

As much as Trump is demonstrably absurd, I think it is wrong for the
Republican party to do this - as wrong as the Dem party would be if Sanders
ends up with the most pledged delegates and they still give the nomination
to Clinton (though I doubt that will happen - it is unlikely though not
impossible that Sanders will get the most pledged delegates, and if he does
I doubt the Dems will give it to Clinton).

He shares a lot of the same tactics: pushes to create fear of the "outsider"
and poor as much as he can.

The media is MASSIVELY pro-Clinton. They are some of her major funders.

Which is an accurate description of him.

I can go into detail as to why I am against Trump's bigotry, his absurd,
ever-changing and useless plan for a wall, his pushing of violence, etc. But
at this point he is becoming just footnote in political history and he will
simply use this campaign to push another TV show or even network.

He is the world's best troll... being outrageous to get media attention.
