This has got to be a gigantic practical joke, isn't it?

(5,816 posts)He kept doing things that would have sunk anyone else's campaign in a NY minute. But he just kept going. Now he is doing outrageous things and some will speculate the same thing. He is purposely trying to get out of being President. He did what he set out to do....WIN. So now he wants to get out of it, especially after being confronted with the reality of being president. Lots of WORK and he will have to get rid of his precious holdings. I am sure it is being drummed into his thick skull that turning things over to his children does not cut it when it comes to a conflict of interest problem. So we probably can expect more and more outrageous things so he can cut and run and act like he was forced out by unreasonable rules and regulations regarding the presidency.
Just for the record, he has only been the President elect for a month or so and I am sick to death of his act already. I can't imagine four years of this....god forbid eight.

(17,027 posts)to win. Someone or several people here speculated he wanted to start a Trump News network and be a media mogul...
But now it's looking like he's set his sights on more ways to force his will. He wants to ram his picks through and get exemptions for that Mad Dog Mattis or he's threatening that people will get angry. Looks like he has no intention of complying with laws or customs, and it looks like no one will make him.

(111,111 posts)Everything is negotiable for Donald.
Unless he is forced or persuaded that something is wrong or illegal, he will continue to do it. That is what he is doing with his businesses right now. Unless he is forced to rid himself and put them in a blind trust, not his family, he will continue to do what he is doing.

(2,108 posts)Isn't the presidency kind of a full time gig?
What if both positions call upon him at the same time....what do you imagine he'll prioritize? The production schedule or leading the nation?
C'mon, we all know the answer to that ~
What the hell is going on?!?
