Trump has burned numerous bridges already, and not half-way. He has demonstrated a complete lack of self-control and his stubborn ways assure he won't tone himself down at all. Him winning the primary is basically the death knell for the Republican bid for Presidency in 2016, a serious dodge of a bullet.

Because I know pattern recognition. You are drastically over-estimating the american voters that they will actually put any real thought into their vote. It will come down to this. "I wasn't satisfied with the democrat president so this time I'll vote for the republican". Thats why we've had this pattern for over 20 years.
Both parties have become very good at marketing, so votes come down to more simple habits. Any real information requires more research than your average voter is willing to put forward.
