He may not be the next president: but, again, it is a far more possible outcome than many believe – or want to believe. Surveys show his support is far from confined to blue-collar white men. The political class, and the pundits who cosy up to them, cannot understand why he has become the first man since Eisenhower to get to a US general election without having held any elected office.
No wonder traditional politicians are so distressed. A peasants’ revolt is under way in America – as, indeed, it is in Britain and in much of Europe – and they are the target of the revolutionaries’ anger. It threatens nothing less than the end of an old order – an order that has failed because of its contempt for the feelings of voters who believed they lived in a democracy.
I'll be honest here, The one thing I do like about this whole Trump situation is that hes got everybody, and I mean Everybody, in an uproar.

"YOUR FIRED!"
That's right! Fire all those corrupt bastards!
Trump says he's going to do some stuff that a President can't actually do.
But Reagan did fire 11,000 ATCs.
Now Reagan is the cause of 9/11? (or do you mean a different type of atc?)
Which might eventually lead to dumping a lot of deadwood in Congress.

Also, have to wonder how much he could do with a Congress that doesn't really like him (on either side of the aisle
He'd prolly go on Live TV, bitch, moan and complain about that and gain even more support.

I'm still not convinced Trump is the answer.
I'm no fan of the Wall business, I support doing something about the illegals. I'm also no fan of Hillary either.
Here is an interesting perspective from the UK. Yes, I know but it's a rather good read.
"Mr Trump has a chance of the White House because modern Republicans have either governed disastrously or had nothing to offer except platitudes and drivel"
Ignore the sneering elites - Donald Trump can win

Sometimes I forget not everyone is as old as I am.
