New Twist in Trump Campaign: Will He Even Serve if He Wins?
Thursday, July 7, 2016 03:46 PM

 

Donald Trump has his eyes on the prize — but he may not even really want it.

In a new wrinkle in Trump's quest to win the presidency — the billionaire real-estate tycoon revealed he's not even sure he'll serve if elected.

Trump's shock declaration came as The New York Times asked him if he was tapped by Americans to serve four years in the White House, might he then "forgo the office as the ultimate walk-off winner."

Trump, the newspaper said, flashed a mischievous smile, answering, "I'll let you know how I feel about it after it happens."

The Times says presumptive GOP presidential nominee may just be seeking more publicity with that answer.

"But the notion of the intensely competitive Mr. Trump's being more interested in winning the presidency than serving as president is not exactly a foreign concept to close observers of this presidential race," The Times' Jason Horowitz writes.

Stuart Stevens, a senior adviser to Mitt Romney in 2012, told Horowitz that Trump may be looking for an out, adding, "He has no sense of how to govern. He can't even put together a campaign."

Somehow I wouldn't be surprised if he does something nutty like that.  This actually does fit his history a bit. He is the contractor who wins the bid but doesn't follow through (see his Primary run for example- winning the vote but then not setting up offices or even being there to seat delegates- he thinks winning is all that counts, not the job afterwords).

I have often wondered if he has really thought about the office itself and what will be expected of him. starting with a very regimental schedule, daily briefs, meetings with staff, secret service smothering not only you but your family. Despite the image Obama gives with his many golf outings, you sacrifice much accepting the job.

I've always said that we cannot predict what Nov will bring.

If Trump continues with his current strategy, however, I think it'll be safe to say "Madame President."

All of this, in a tragic way is comical. Remember all the comparisons to 1980 and all those cross over voters in the primary that are now gone that his supporters told us about? Remember the non existent "Reagan Democrats" that were excited to vote Trump?

Reality is a buzzkill

In his Cincinnati speech, he spoke of his hotels, the post office building he's refurbishing, and his beloved golf course in Scotland. These are the things he loves, and he loves to brag about them too. So I can see him calling in sick if he wins POTUS.

America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign. -Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

What has Trump ever said that led you to believe he is capable of running this country?  We can only pray.

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

That's because he's a winning winner that wins!!!!!
