Not many people saw it coming just eleven months ago, when Donald Trump announced his candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination. But now, as the GOP convention wraps up with the New York real estate billionaire as its nominee, it's time to ask - how exactly did Trump win by breaking all the rules?
"As Trump has invented stories, offended Americans and made arguments that reveal his ignorance of the separation of powers...he has done so in a style that remained convincing to millions of voters," writes media specialist and former CNN correspondent Allan Chernoff. "The vocal and visual qualities of his presentation tell an audience he firmly believes every word coming out of his mouth, and so should they." Courtesy Fortune.
