Do you think Trump possesses a specialized ‘Politics Skill’ that Ellen or Beyonce don’t? If so, what is it?
Trump dominated the news cycle by doing things that are newsworthy. As a result he got a lot of attention. I don’t think Ellen Degeneres would do that the same way.
From my view, he seemed to get lots of headlines just for being a celebrity and running for POTUS simultaneously.
It cannot be just that: Trump has run for presidency other times, but it didn’t get the same coverage. This time something else has changed, whether in him or in his sourroundings.
Trump only ran once before, in 2000, and then only for the nomination in a third party. He also speculated about running as a Republican in 2012, but I don’t think he gave any speeches. He did get some coverage.

Can you explain, in your view, what Trump did to get a lot of attention that another huge celebrity could not do?

Not unlike OJ made headlines for being a celeb and being on trial for murder at the same time.

Agreed.
He made headlines by saying outrageous things. Then he stranded his ground.
What would keep other celebs from doing that?
