I'm not sure pollsters, political analysts, pundits, journalists really understand or can acknowledge just how charismatic Trump is. Regardless how one might feel about Trump (love through hate), it's undeniable he is very similar to other charismatic leaders. His voters only have eyes for him. That doesn't translate over to other candidates. Trump endorsed Mastriano, but that was after Mastriano had been ahead in all the polls and was a pretty sure bet to win the R primary. His Oz endorsement certainly didn't result in Oz pulling away from McCormick.
