I have to agree to this.
I'm waiting for the convention, it's mostly likely he would announce it then if that were the case. I doubt anyone would want to tough it out through the entire general election if they are merely a plant.

on the one hand i have a hard time believing trump is willing to sacrifice his ego and dignity to destroy the republicans from the inside and but on the other hand i'm pretty sure hillary has been selected as our next president by the illuminati so who knows what trump was ordered to do

it will also be very funny when hillary's plant actually beats her in the presidential race because she is such a bad candidate that the body public rejects her as a tumor

he's lost multiple friends, accreditations, awards, and marred his family name. Egomaniac millionaire businessmen do not, in my experience, throw their empire under the bus unless they mean it. The biggest threat to Trumps international business prospects is his campaign. I can't see any amount of bribe money or brownie points with politicians being worth that.

I can see a series of 30 year old polaroids featuring a 6 year old boy in a gimp suit and an unbelievably coked up Donald being totally worth it.

Uncertainty is inherently unsustainable. Eventually, everything either is or isn't.
Have there been any polls comparing Hillary now to any of the non-orange candidates that lost? I don't think anyone runs these I'm just interested to see if she would be leading against Cruz or JEB! at this point had they won the nomination.

IIRC Kasich was the only one that presented a credible threat, and that's mostly because he was viewed as a generic republican by everyone.

Lol at the idea of Kasich being a threat. But seriously an unknown generic Republican bringing the heat to the dynastic figurehead who's been the presumptive 2016 nominee for 8 years is kind of troubling. If Trump wasn't the nominee we might have gone off the rails.

True. Also I just checked the current favorable charts and the Republican field is just awful, even comparing to Clinton with a strong showing of -12. Trump is -24! Cruz is -24. JEB is -23. Christie is -18. Rubio is -11. And Kasich is sitting pretty at at basically 0. Lots and lots of winners this season.

(Note: I expect partisan politics to keep most politicians into the +/- 5 category, we just don't like our politicians)

Yup.

The fact that Clinton only has -12 across the sum of all demographics isn't surprising in the least bit after 25+ years of an entire conservative industry entirely dedicated to trashing the poo poo out of anyone with her last name.

As long as you charge the same rates that you would normally charge to anyone who isn't your campaign, it's okay.

We should check to see if Trump put stock into the hat industry before his campaign. And not just the "Make America Great Again" hats, there's also the Drumpf hats, the "America Is Already Great" hats, and all sorts of other knockoff jokes.

There's a lot of boy who cried wolf going on with the Clintons. When real, valid criticisms and scandals come out, most lump them in with the Vince Foster poo poo because anything negative about the Clintons is obviously tinfoil hat right wing smears.

Yeah, that's exactly how it is. The Alex Joneses are crazy for believing every bad thing that's ever been said about her but the Obdicuts are also in denial of reality if they think she's never ever done anything wrong.
