In reply to the discussion: Fox News host: Trump is bleeding support and 'might drop out of the race' [View all]StevieM
(10,499 posts)50. I seriously doubt it.
People said he was dropping out in 2016 after Access Hollywood, and that didn't happen. Also, people on the right called for George HW Bush to drop out in 1992 when he was down in the polls. That was never going to happen either.
This is just what Republicans do when they think an incumbent GOP president is going to lose. They call for them to drop out, and they spread rumors that the candidate is already thinking about it.

I think if this were a serious possibility, you'd hear "health-related" rumors
