I almost fell for Trump for a while there...
That said, he wouldn’t take a cabinet post...why would he?
At MOST I could see him being an unofficial advisor, as in someone you call up or email for expert business advice about something.
I was far ahead of you, months ago I asked :” Why would he really run for president?” and the answer was ‘no reason’. Then why would he make believe he was running? To get free MSM and viewers attention and it worked great for him, but not for Republicans or conservatives though, especially the gullable ones that believed him.
If he endorses Palin, it’s a good thing. Back when he started making noise about running, he was already speaking kindly of her, if they asked him about Palin.
