Trump doesn't want to have to work. He wants to just sit back, glorify himself in interviews, be applauded at rallies, and tweet.
He doesn't want to (or can't) do the hard work of fundraising. He will have no money, the nets are not going to cover his rallies, and, increasingly, they're going to make him come in and sit down for interviews. Except for FOXNEWS, of course. And their viewership is declining since they've become the Trump channel.
The I-told-you-sos are going to be coming a lot sooner than I thought.
