How will Trump exit this race

[malaise]

I still don't believe he is running in November

[NightWatcher]

1. Faked medical condition and his kids pull him out.

[malaise]

4. Faked "sudden" medical condition

Remember he was the healthiest man on the planet - this has to be sudden

[jaysunb]

2. Indicted on rape charges ? n/t

[malaise]

5. Heheheheh

Too funny

[Gabi Hayes]

11. as far as current dockets, there isn't anything that's inside

the statute of limitations. it's a civil lawsuit filed by jane doe, from 22 years ago.

would be nice if that one even gets a MENTION on TV

[Glassunion]

3. Not sure...

[DesertRat]

32. What makes you say that?

I think it's pretty obvious that he doesn't have any interest in public service or the temperament to be president. I think he just ran to promote the Trump brand, never expecting to become the nominee.

7. Not easy to run with your Pence around your ankles.

Something will take him out of the race, I don't know what, but I doubt he will be there in November.

[pinboy3niner]

8. Pence around your ankles, LOL

[malaise]

15. You're on a roll today

[nolabear]

26. ...

[NNadir]

28. Oh man! That's classic! n/t

[hobbit709]

9. Same way he does everything. Lots of bluster and total lack of class.

[Wellstone ruled]

10. This sucker is not leaving.

His Ego won't let him.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

12. Bankruptcy.

As soon as he figures out how to wring maximum profit from the departure.

[Gabi Hayes]

13. uhhhhh, unless there's a total DT meltdown in Cleveland

he's going to be ahead in the polls. and with the likely violence in the streets there, it could be by quite a bit, because any physical unrest ALWAYS helps
the lawnorder party

said this a ton of times, I clearly/dearly hope I'm wrong, but we'll see in a week's time

no way he drops out til some bombshell breaks. who's going to hear about it?

[Cyrano]

14. Not with a bang but a whimper.

That's the last line of T.S. Eliot's, "The Hollow Men."

IMO, Trump will not go away quietly. But who knows. Quietly or with lots of noise, just let this horrible nightmare, who is one of the worst humans of our era, just go away. Far away. Quietly. Loudly. Horribly. Just make him go away.

[malaise]

16. I hope you're right

and I agree with you 100% - I can't believe this is happening.

[ailsagirl]

17. "Not with a bang but a whimper"

T.S. Eliot's "The Hollow Men"-- so very appropriate, Cyrano

[mcar]

18. However he does it

He needs to wait till after the RNC. That would be a thing of beauty.

[joshcryer]

20. Trump is going to lose horribly then pivot left...

...and say it was all an act and he was for Clinton all along.

[AntiBank]

24. this ^^^^^^^^^^

he really is a moderate republican who is mostly acting a RW populist (and would govern as a RWer in a lot if aspects )

his is however insanely narcissistic and a sexist pig

[lpbk2713]

21. "I got an iron clad contract to do several more shows for NBC."

"Hey I'd like to run for president but you know how it is."

[Wounded Bear]

22. I'm hoping it is in disgrace...

[malaise]

23. DUzy

[Rex]

25. Kicking and screaming.

[greytdemocrat]

27. It's possible

As the next POTUS.

[NurseJackie]

29. He's in it to win it. And even if he could win, and did win ...

... he'd be impeached and removed from office before his first term was completed.

But he can't win, and he won't win, and we'll never have President Pence.

[malaise]

31. +1,000

Like you I don't think it will happen but they stole one from Gore in 2000

[pinboy3niner]

30. In ignominious general election defeat. nt

[guillaumeb]

34. To appear in a new reality show. eom
