He's declared bankruptcy at least four times...and claimed they were all good business decisions. I think there's a real possibility that he'll drop out of the race, and that he'll say that he did so because it was rigged anyway, that he was getting tired of the "baseless attacks" on him and his wife. Heck, look at his allegations that the debates were purposely scheduled during football games, just to 'rig the election'.

In fact, I'd say that the chances of Trump dropping out are better than 50-50.

You're forgetting something: his giant ego.

That alone will ensure he won't drop out of the race.

And that Trump has his entire life shown a willingness to take a beating if he thinks he is right.

This is not a guy in the habit of taking the easy roads, he loves the fight.

Delusion runs high with the Elite and their sympathizers.
 
TRUMP has the REAL POWER on his side and with that REAL POWER he can do much more than just win an election voted by lowest IQ's on record......
 
dude you've been alive how long and you actually think a republican nominee would ever drop out? It would be FAR more humiliating for the party and potentially be the death knell for the primary shenanigans. How exactly do they get even the 24/7 media to give a damn in 2020 if their nominee drops out in less than a month? This is why the conventions are so close to the general - limit voter choices and the odds that the nominee will be a disaster

I have no doubt most republicans view trump as a huge effrontery to their egos, but they will see hillary win in a landslide before they risk the above scenario

Then there's the fact trump genuinely does not give a **** what's best for the party. It's why he was willing to run independent. He's in it for #1 only and he knows that the tide will wax and wane much before november. God knows what other scandals await his opponent or if there's some 9/11 event he can capitalize on

But for sake of argument, if trump was gone, the logical choice is bernie sanders. He finished 3rd after all

tough roads like declaring bankruptcy multiple times?

His ego didn't stop him from declaring bankruptcy at least four times. As long as he can convince himself that what he's doing is a "good business move" - as he has claimed about his bankruptcies - he'll have no problem at all doing it. Besides, there will be a small part of him that doesn't want to see headlines that say, "Loser!" on Nov. 9th...especially if it's to a *gasp* woman!
 
If Trump dropped out he would be admitting he made a mistake, That is not going to happen no matter what. Now what we will get is the conspiracy theories of how it was all rigged when he loses to the wicked witch of the east. Worst election ever.

yeah just like one of the primary losses, he will play sore loser all the way and not even give a concession speech
 
If he does not finish out these last 100 days in order to keep his word to the people who have supported him then I was completely wrong about him.

I sincerely hope that the GOP can someday recover from this entire annus horribilis, because if the GOP becomes marginalized, then this nation - at least for a decade or two - becomes a one-party nation...and that's NOT good.
 
There is a rising current among the GOP leadership that Trump may well drop out and contingency plans are being made to have a backup candidate. Do you think the bad hair day will drop out and if so who will replace him

I feel like i'm missing something: why would Trump drop out ...?

He didn't declare personal bankruptcy, more specifically, his business ventures have restructured debt four times.

You raise a good point- he will not simply allow an election loss to reflect poorly on his person.

This year, I've been completely wrong in every prediction I've made regarding this election, so in that vane I'll say no, he will not drop out. Now I'll just sit back and hope that my streak continues.
 
I think Trump has become mastered by his own mythology. The rebel with the untamed mouth got him lots of support from people who were sick of the establishment candidates both sides have been feeding us for years but the transition from insurgent to running things is often a tough gear-shift

Obama's ascension was predicated on the same delusion. The idea of truly reforming the corruption of party politics by joining it is too laughable. If you want chops as an "insurgent" you run independent or create your own party or, more in line with the trump psychosis, you show up at the white house with 300 million twitter followers in tow, break down the front door, and declare this the new era. Then as first act, you deport the kenyan-muslim
 
Nope. The fanatics in the GOP base will not let that happen.

Congratulations, Republicans: You built that!

I don't think he's going to drop out at all and if the GOP manages to bump him I suspect that he'll run as an Independent.

The guy has managed to piss off pretty much everyone not already dedicated to him and he's got his work cut out for him if he's going to make a recovery but if Hillary gets the nod in Nov. and the GOP loses the Senate the whole country is screwed.

There is too much focus on the candidates for president right now. They are both horrible choices. The important thing right now is for voters to focus on congressional races and state races. The ONLY thing that will protect this nation from either of these idiots is a legislature that refuses to allow the Executive branch any power. That needs to be backed by states that strongly assert their powers.

This kind of mess can only happen when the people have utterly abdicated their responsibility to hold their elected officials accountable for their actions and it's therefore up to the people to step up, understand that they really do have substantial skin in the game, and get to work fixing it.
 
The party can not replace Trump now, the election laws will not allow it, and we are a nation of laws.

If Trump drops out Hillary is the next President.

You are a Trump supporter, right? If so, this is literally the first time I have ever heard a Trump supporter use that phrase.

I am an individual. I am also a socialist who believes that for this society to succeed we need good government, of what ever size the people decide we want. How often do you see people arguing for good government anymore, Trump supporter or not? The arguing tends to be over size of government, and what the government does, not whether we screw ourselves by allowing if not outright promoting bad government...and to be clear here, I think all sides promote bad government. Even The Professor, who should in theory care about the quality of government, clearly does not.

get out....

but

then

that would give him power forEVER

he would never have to prove himself and he could use this ticket for the rest of his life

No, that is not an example of being willing to take a beating, of taking the hard road, that is an example of using the established rules of the game to win the game. The globe is awash with debt (because the global economy is in a death spiral), much of it will never be paid, there is no longer any shame in bankruptcy, it is too common,.....something that the Hillary promoters clearly do not understand.

i agree that there is no moral imperative in avoiding bankruptcy IF the individual (not corporation) is truly unable to pay debts from unforeseen reasons, such as a poor kid's college loans for a degree that never paid off (sadly one of the few things you can't declare bankruptcy for). That does not include a multi-millionaire's reckless spending with no intention of ever paying the debt. In fact, if up to me, millionaires can't even take on debt. They don't need more ****, they have plenty already

And even aside from all that, a 'leader' like the president should have a record of thriving where others fall short
 
Trump will never quite because he knows that the words TRUMP QUITS will be forever what his name is ultimately remembered for.

And his ego is far too large to accept that reality and infamy.
 
I think that if the polls start showing Hillary by a landslide that Trump will most definitely drop out.
Only it wont be any time soon. He wont make that decision until just before the election.

Trump will go for "Trump Quits" long before he willingly accepts "Trump the Loser".
He will drop out sometime around November 1st. Remember who said it first :p

WOW!!!!! That is quite a prediction. And just what would happen then since the ballot is already firmly set by that late date? Tens of million of votes will already have been cast by absentee as well.
 
No, he would give some blather about how the polls are rigged and he can't stay in a process that is rigged....blah blah blah

It would be just more of the same old BS from the Master of BS'ers.
