In reply to the discussion: Your opinion of Donald Trump? [View all]WhaTHellsgoingonhere
(5,252 posts)43. He's going to tank. That's an expression known to tennis fans...
When a player gets so outplayed and is so far behind in a set, he tanks it, meaning he intentionally loses it.
There's nothing about Trump that indicates he wants the job. His grudge du jour is with the Republican Party. Now that he's got all of his enemies throwing their support behind him, he's going to settle scores. That's all. He's going to take them all down with him. That's really quite an accomplishment, by far the most significant achievement of his entire life.

Options 3, 4, 5, and 6. Though I think even they miss the low level of my opinion.

Great poll, Kentuck. It was about time we had one specifically on the Donald.
