I said Trump is the easiest Republican to beat too but people thought I was crazy. I'm sure the Clintons encouraged (not saying he's a plant, just that they really wanted him to run) their close friend Donald to run in the hopes of splitting the Republican party and giving them an easy win (even if he happened to win the primary withouit splitting the primary because he's so incompetent).
Donald amazed everyone by winning the nomination. And I doubt Hilary expected to be losing to Trump in the national polling. Donald Trump of all people! Anyone else would have a much bigger lead than Trump because they're way more competent and have the support of the majority of the Republican establishment
I'd have wished for Rand Paul. He would crush Hilary. I don't get why more people didn't vote for Rand in the primaries - he was most likable candidate. Though the Republican elites would probably treat him like the DNC treated Senator Sanders (i.e. like they treated Ron Paul). If it were Hilary and Rand as the respective nominees I'd have no trouble voting Republican.
