Think of how much you have to hate America to run for president while knowing that you've committed

9. No, he ran simply due to his hate for President Obama and second, hate for Hillary Clinton.

He wanted IMO a forum to blast Obama, Clinton, all Democrats, etc. and he did get that. His national profile was raised (a lot) in all parts of the country and in foreign capitols as well. His foghorn complaining of all the ills he's perceived over the years was loud, widespread and listened too by many. I'll bet he reviewed tape of all of his campaign utterances time and time again, always telling anyone in earshot he was great, always won, and was terrific at all times.

Now, we I think do agree he didn't think he'd win, Russia help or not. But win he did. Unfortunately for him and his family, he totally missed the fact that as president, all of his actions, past, current and future, would be under a microscope, unlike his NYC time where mainly only the local press covered his antics. By now, he must rue the day he decided to run and as a result has fallen under the purview of the FBI, NY AG and other law enforcement offices, state and federal, for a host of illegal, un-American and criminal activities.

He should hope his final resting place will be secret...as thousands, nay, tens of thousands of us would pay good money to... piss on his grave!
