I published the article below more than 5 years ago, and somebody someplace in the world read it yesterday.
It's an interesting piece for two reasons:
1) You can see Trump with his actual hair
2) A link (from the Atlantic magazine) within the story explains why Trump had a commanding lead over the other Republican candidates at that time.

In October of 2015, Trump polled ahead of everyone else because (1) he was tough on immigration (no surprise) and
(2) because he was MORE LIKELY TO RAISE TAXES ON RICH PEOPLE.
He made good on the first part by hiring Stephen Miller, but the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 made a mockery of his second promise, since wealthy Americans cut their taxes cut, not raised.
