Seeing the skimming/smash and grab going on with all that cash. He seems to be dragging ass most of th time, and may be tired of it all. He recently stated, "If I lose to him, I don't know what I'm going to do. I will never speak to you again," Trump told the attendees at the rally. "You'll never see me again." Donald's used to his "family business" where he simply does whatever he wants and answers to no one. Except for the attention he gets at rallies, he seems bored. Ivanka & Jared have made a ton of money, she has her Chinese patents. The increasing corruption and power grab is turning the electorate against Donald, except for this base/cult. If he really wanted a second term, why not do more for the people?
