    There was a time when politicians kissed babies to garner public affection. Not Trump....

    Seriously...  is he just trolling at this point?   He can't possibly be serious about the things that come out of his mouth or posted on Twitter.

    I think it's one of two things BWS:

    1) I think he is such a vile, soulless individual at his core, saying things like this is second nature so it just comes out naturally.

    In addition, like pro athletes, he's been surrounded by fawning yes men and women who wanted the scraps of his billions. Not anymore in an election.

    Also, he's accountable to the public and a media that will not shy away from embarrassing him. In this, he simply can't find the ability to muzzle himself. That already is his downfall in motion. That's why "We're too PC" is one of his mantras. He says what he wants and gets criticized every day for it and can't live with that.

    2) The second more unlikely scenario is, like previous elections, he did this all for publicity and now he finds himself on the verge of a presidency where internally, he is conflicted with actually wanting. A man like him wants all the power but none of the enormous responsibility of representing a nation. So he is playing a Jekyll and Hyde right in front of our eyes to sabotage himself.

    His comments about the election being rigged and his complaining about the debate dates/times show me that he's got his excuses ready for his drubbing.   You know a guy like him can't lose cleanly in his mind so he's covering his @ss ahead of time.   On November 9th he can stand there and say "I told you it was rigged against me!  I said it months ago"

    Absolutely true. And he'll be more than relieved he can walk away having won the GOP nominee which is mind-boggling in its own right.

    Then he'll spend the next 4 years on Fox every single day slandering Hillary from here to kingdom come. He'd want it no other way.

    I love how he harasses Bernie for backing Hillary. Yeah Donald, he'll run as an independent so you can walk away with the election. Like Bernie Sanders is going to be goaded into running as an independent because of....tweets.

    Crazy, delusional, racist, misogynistic, whiny, crybaby, etc. etc., Trump who's had ZERO political experience and is best known for bankrupting companies and fu**ing employees, creditors, people (Trump 'U'), investors, (and hot Russian models) over and being an orange babboon reality T.V. star with weird hair.....

    Even with all he does and says, him and Hillary are both still up-and-down neck-and-neck in the polls.....

    So, what does that tell ya!!

    Man, I bet Mitt Romney is kicking himself right now!   

    Kasich, anyone? Is it too late for ole' Jeb? Rand Paul? Anyone? 

    At this point I think the GOP could have actually nominated a red, white, and blue elephant and still had a fighting chance.....

    Crazy, delusional, racist, misogynistic, whiny, crybaby, etc. etc., Trump who's had ZERO political experience and is best known for bankrupting companies and fu**ing employees, creditors, people (Trump 'U'), investors, (and hot Russian models) over and being an orange babboon reality T.V. star with weird hair.....

    Even with all he does and says, him and Hillary are both still up-and-down neck-and-neck in the polls.....

    So, what does that tell ya!!

    Romney would have DEFINITELY beaten Hillary but in a major F Up, the GOP establishment didn't want him to run again because well, you're just not allowed to run twice after a loss Mitt!!! Because they said so!!

    has any seen an over/under on when trump just says f*ck it and moves on from this presidential race.  i can't imagine he wants to be president.  he isn't winning anyway.  he does not wnt to get his behind handed to him on election day, which is what will happen.  it seems like his best exit strategy would be to tell his people the election is rigged and the media are biased and take a knee and let pence take the beating. 

    where are the odds on that?
