Who does that?! It's always been my belief that the only reason he ran for POTUS wasn't because he wanted or intended to do the job, but only because he wanted the campaign contributions. One more "business" that didn't require much on his part - he originally was paid by his father for basically doing nothing, he was just given "titles" while others did the work, according to Mary Trump's book. And his previous ventures all failed - Trump steaks, Trump vodka and the infamous Trump University - so he was desperate for unearned income.
