I'm pretty sure, although I have not completed an academic study, that Trump is wrong about virtually everything he opines on.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

1)Donald Trump's campaign is essentially broke(it was already morally bankrupt).

Quote
Donald Trump, a man who measures his self-worth by the number in his bank account, just had to admit to his supporters that his campaign is officially broke as a joke. For a guy who believes his only qualification for being president is how successful he is at managing money, this is an unthinkable humiliation.

In an “emergency fundraising” email blasted out to his supporters, Trump’s campaign says it needs $100,000 today or they are screwed.
He can't afford television ads.

2)Businesses are pulling their support for the Republican National Convention.

3)Delegates are looking at rule changes which will essentially make them superdelegates and allow them to vote for whomever they wish.
Linky dinky doo

Paul Ryan didn't want to be the Speaker either....

Zeke, I'll let you keep that $20 Bucks if they select anyone besides Trump. Watching the Republican Party explode will be worth for more than $20.

I found this rather interesting:
Quote
"Where Trump gets the highest ratings in history of television?” Trump commented.

So his reality show "Trump Runs for President" ratings are the most important thing? Not the issues, or the good of the country, or even world peace? Not whether people like him or despise him, as long as they watch? ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME

So what is this going to do to him when he loses?

LOL I couldn't agree more! Broadway tickets are usually in the hundreds.

He's already lost and he knows it. He has long since stopped quoting the polls in all his speeches. He has said that for enough money he would drop out of the race. He knows the Republican Party is doing everything in its power to dump him. You can be sure he reads his own press and not much is being said in favor of him winning anywhere.
He may be a charlatan but he's no fool. The only ones who might think he still has a chance are his angry army of idiots and they have proven time and time again that they are totally immune to facts.

The only thing I would miss would be a debate between him and Clinton. That would almost be worth the price of a Broadway show

Trump: 'I feel like a supermodel, except like times 10'

Rebecca Savransky
The Hill
June 19, 2016

Quote
Presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump on Saturday compared himself to a supermodel, citing media exposure.

"I feel like a supermodel, except like times 10," Trump said during a rally Saturday in Arizona.

"It's true. I'm a supermodel. I'm on the cover of these magazines — I'm on the cover of the biggest magazines.
