Ramona, looks like your intuition was correct.

I am at a loss.

I am at a loss.

How did this ignoramus get this far? ( we are all ignorant, the definition of ignoramus after all?)

Bloomberg is looking a lot better?

To me anyway, I wish he were the repub candidate anyway.

Hillary or we lose!

GET OUT THE VOTE!

I have no idea why this song grabs me right now, but...if the ignoramus wins?

Yes, he did. All it took was

Yes, he did. All it took was one packed auditorium and he couldn't turn back. It'll be interesting to see what he does now.

I think you've put your finger on it, Ramona. And he's in a real jam.

You need to have a big ego to be President. But you can't have a fragile ego. It's not a job for narcissists.

But how to avoid the presidency without losing? And losing in public?

It's a lose-lose situation for The Donald. And he put himself in it, all by himself.

Heh. Heh. Heh.

The "quitting to spend more time with my families" excuse?

Oh, he'll definitely stick

Oh, he'll definitely stick around through several wins since his ego wouldn't allow otherwise. If it can manage a loss or two on the way to the nomination - questionable at best - his head might exceed his hair in perceived volume.

But since Ramona is absolutely right, he won't continue much past the nomination (should the Republican electorate implode). He'll have proven himself to himself, and will find a way out before risking a loss in the general. Me? I see him claiming his business and/or family needs him back on board ... sorry, America, I hate to do it, but I have to put my legacy first. My kids, my wonderful children and their kids, the people who work for me and all their kids who will work for me later - I can't let them down, America. But I'll never stop working to Make America Great Again! (cue cheers)

Your fandom has nothing to do with his bouncing a check to a prostitute, I'm sure. BTW, he also advised RFK.

Hey, watchit! I will have you to remember that partner Springer (D) was a helluva mayor for (I think) cincinnatti.

My daughter thinks it's the greatest reality show ever, that he's just going to keep building it up & then pop it at some point. I'd imagine *after* he's won some contests - better that way. Maybe do a "here's Hillary", maybe something else. Maybe just do a Network-style "this has all been a joke, you've all been had - thank you for watching".

People are thinking he has to be setting himself up for something else, but maybe this is his final David Bowie moment - it's not like he has to do anything, and a permanent meltdown would be historic. No, he doesn't look like the Supreme Court or head of the United Nations kind-of-guy, and a "I was just kidding" signoff wouldn't exactly work.

Stay tuned - as Hunter Thompson said, when the going gets tough, the weird turn pro.
