*Certainly* ? Define what makes her a better candidate. Zero private sector experience. She was given her head start in politics because of who she was sleeping with. She's not proven to be particularly mentally gifted (Failed her bar exam at first pass) . Serious questions on her judgement (Libya among other things), serious questions on her character (Outright lies "I was under Sniper Fire"), serious questions on her consistency (Anti Gay marriage, Pro Gay marriage).
"Experience in politics" means exactly what? The foundation of this country were people who worked within the private sector and weren't career politicians, they had to establish themselves in their own right and then they went into politics for the good of the country. They had to live within the very same environment that they claimed to represent.
He's polling ahead of Hillary currently and that's without any form of 1 on 1 debate.

This is the common mistake many republicans make, thinking private sector experience in any way is benefitial in the public sector. The private sector is about profit and egotistical motives, which is fine because it is private businesses. In the public sector, redistribution of wealth (and yes, ALL republican politicians are for this, they simply are playing politics with words) is the primary objective and assuring all of society prospers. These two mindsets are opposites of each other, and that is one of the reason Trump would be a catastrophy as president.
And he is only a good negotiator in the private sector, as a politician he has so far proven to be worse than even Bush. Making claims that you should ban all muslims from entering (including the US largest oil suplier Saudi Arabia, all of Europes muslim and possibly even americans being abroad), speaking in general terms about Mexicans being rapists and criminals and bullying political opponents only shows how clumsy and dumb he is.
Putin was asked about Trump and seemed genuinely happy if he would become president. That is because he knows what a looser he is when it comes to politics and how much the US would falter internationally if he became president.
Also, being an isolationist worked until WWI, since then the world has changed radically. The moment China phones Trump and asks for their money back, he will cave and become their loyal puppet (which I´m assuming he already is, considering he places a lot of his manufacturing in China).
