(44,173 posts)A normal candidate has finite resources (money). When a normal candidate loses a few primaries the money dries up quickly; donors take a walk, the media ignores you and primary voters start thinking of you as a fringe candidate with no chance, so they go elsewhere. It's a self-perpetuating cycle.
But if you have the money of Trump, you can overcome all that if you are willing to spend lavishly. Money can prop you up to make you look like a bigger candidate than you really are.

(20,885 posts)Trump blew the announcement of his endorsement into an "awards ceremony." But the implied condescension, on Trump's part, in your post, indicates you get what I mean.

(1,858 posts)I seriously doubt Trump would do better in the general election. I don't see a billionaire winning the presidency with things the way they are.

(75,480 posts)he will fail. He said he can't play Lucy snatching the football from Charlie Brown anymore. This time he has to play the game all the way through and he will lose.
I think he will probably snatch the ball again because he's too stupid to see it will end his being in the game in the future.
