Who knows? I'd say that despite what everyone likes to scream about their preferred candidate, things will probably be very close, just based on the polls.
But then again, the polls seemed to indicate that things were going to be close between Obama and Romney, yet Romney's was one of the most crushing defeats in US electoral history, so at this point, who really can say.
I will say that in the few weeks that are left, given the debates, Trump will have a lot opportunities to use his media savvy, and the first rule of public debates in an electoral setting: It's not about being right, it's about looking right.

Wait... what?! Since when was Romney's defeat in 2012 "one of the most crushing defeats in US electoral history"?! He lost the popular vote by less than 4 percent, and Obama won less electoral votes than the winners did in 70% of elections since 1904!
