Judging from the 6 downvoats, it appears he is the type of candidate some believe in. (I'm not one of them).

First, that is NOT the function of downvoats, (except for the newbies).
And the comments reveal that many who support him are ignorant, childish bigots...which is why he will not have any chance, (that was what I was checking out in creating this question...are there intelligent Trump supporters. There are, but very few.)
These replies prove many of the people arguing for him do not understand politics (or don't care). The type of people he is attracting will never get him elected. He seems to attract very poorly educated people, or trolls and shills. Very few have intelligent dialogue to defend him.
