Trump Will Make Fools Of Us All
The Huffington Post's Post 50 The Blog ^ | October 9, 2015 | Joe Seldner, Journalist and producer

Posted on 10/09/2015 2:44:30 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Donald has signaled loudly and clearly that he will drop out of the presidential race if his poll numbers don't continue to soar above the mediocre crowd of candidates. He (sort of) backtracked later, but his message was unmistakably that he will take his ball and go home if too many voters polled like other kids more than him.

This will, in fact, happen. Donald doesn't like to lose, and more importantly, doesn't like to be ignored, and when his luster starts to fade, as it already has, he will return to the business of insulting Mexicans and women in the privacy of his own mansions and boardrooms.

Our reaction to this should be two things: Glee that soon enough, the Trumpian media circus will end; and anger that he will have made all of us look like fools.

When he bails, the media who initially dismissed him, and then took him far too seriously, will look bad. Those of us who watched with a combination of horror, dismay and amusement will look bad. And most of all, his followers -- whose blind devotion to this sham of a candidacy has been impossible to fathom -- will look like fools.

But first, why will Donald drop out? There's several possible reasons: 1) As mentioned, he hates being anything but the center of attention, and when he gets a whiff of the media covering other candidates, he will pout, then exit; 2) he never really wanted to be president -- and is no doubt privately amazed he has gotten this far....

Soon enough, they will fall on the floor and chew the carpet ... I see madness in their future: stark, raving, gibbering, certifiable and diagnosable madness.

Whom the gods destroy, they first make mad.

And if he wins, millions of people are going to ruin this guys life by constantly bringing up this article every time he writes anything.

Leftists are so arrogantly stupid. They fail to realize that these sorts of predictions will follow you around the rest of your career

No, he didn't.

The lefties are producing a wet their pants tsunami over Trump.

Forget the sand bags...man the life boats.

And hang on for dear life.

The delluded left tries in vain to paint their nemesis with the Obama brush. Trump is no Obama, slice and dice it how you will. He is spearheading a movement that does not depend on him but is happy to give him the glory of leading the charge. Progressive politics will be destroyed, finally, irrevocably and utterly. It is too evil to survive.

The left grows more insane by the day.

What they perceive has nothing at all to do with reality, but they sure enjoy listening to each other insult the other side.

Wrong. I was Trump this morning on MSNBC, he was being interviewed by Joe Scarborough and four other gentlemen, and this topic came up. THIS MORNING.

Trump said the media completely took what he said out of context, and he didn’t mean anything like what they said he did, and he went on to say he is not going to get out of this race. Period.

He repeated himself. And Scarborough repeated it then.

Trump is in this race. The full way.

um... who wouldn’t drop out if their numbers went to zero like Perry or Walker?

This is a lot of hype over nothing.

True, unfortunately it’s a bad sign that HuffPo is #3 in the USA for news websites (after other regime affiliates Yahoo and Google).

I hope he stays in, but the Donald is very unpredictable and perhaps he is surprised by his standings in the polls.

I do think his followers are fervently devoted and i dont see that 30 percent going anywhere. (although Carson is doing everything he can to try and make himself the most blunt and shocking candidate)

Anyway, we shall find out as the future always comes to be the present, and we will have a republican nominee.
