He may be the leading candidate to be the republican nominee, but that's not the same as the leading candidate likely to win.

Your logic also doesn't work; you can be both the leading candidate and a fringe extremist.

You keep using this word, "fringe". I don't think it means what you think it means...

"Fringe" and "extremist" are relative terms.

By definition whoever wins the most votes is mainstream, not a fringe extremist.

Well, there are only 2 real candidates, so yes the likely republican nominee is a likely candidate to win. The polls all show democrats losing in a landslide in the midterms. That puts the republican nominee in very good position.
