Donald Trump's appeal could be short lived: Bill Clinton
Highlights

Former US president Bill Clinton attributed outspoken Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s current success in surveys to his skills as a “master brander” but said his appeal could be short-lived.
Speaking late yesterday on the Late Show host Stephen Colbert asked Clinton to explain why he thought that Trump — currently leading a pack of 15 Republican presidential hopefuls — was doing so well. “He’s a master brander, and he’s the most interesting character out there... and because he says some things that overrides the ideological differences,” Clinton said.
“There’s a macho appeal of saying I'm just sick of nothing happening. Vote for me.” Clinton however said that Trump’s success “may have a short shelf life.” The ex-president (1993-2001) denied a rumor that he urged Trump to run for president.
“His daughter told my daughter that he had tried to call me and I did not get the message,” said Clinton.
