I think you are so wrong. He ran because he knew he could win. Timing is everything and he knows this is his time (despite the fact that Hillary things she is somehow destined for the presidency).

My Tangential comment: it's his time because he will be scarily old next election.

PP, there's no mulligan option in the Constitution. If Trump were to lose interest and step down after being sworn in, we don't do a re-election. Mike Pence would become president. Think about that long and hard.

I think that was his original intent. Now he feels he has to win. My guess is he picked Pence to do the actual running of government so he can just go around mouthing off or he'll need to "step down" due to some unforeseen medical problem.

I don't think he cares much about the country at all. He only cares about himself.

I have been saying this for months and my DH thinks I am crazy. To me it is unmistakably all a big joke. He has no intention of being president. He will never win, but if by some small miracle he does, he will come out with the truth and we will have to face a re-election.

I thnk he wants to win because he can't handle the thought of losing. I don't think he actually wants to be president.

I think your right, he can't handle losing, but he also likes being in control.
