Even Trump’s most trusted advisors didn’t expect him to fare this well ” the goal was to get The Donald to poll in double digits and come in second in delegate count. That was it. The Trump camp would have been satisfied to see him polling at 12% and taking second place to a candidate who might hold 50%. His candidacy was a protest candidacy.
I don’t think even Trump thought he would get this far. And I don’t even know that he wanted to, which is perhaps the scariest prospect of all. He certainly was never prepared or equipped to go all the way to the White House, but his ego has now taken over the driver’s seat, and nothing else matters. The Donald does not fail. The Donald does not have any weakness. The Donald is his own biggest enemy.
What was once Trump’s desire to rank second place to send a message to America and to increase his power as a businessman has nightmarishly morphed into a charade that is poised to do irreparable damage to this country if we do not stop this campaign in its tracks ” He doesn’t want the White House. He just wants to be able to say that he could have run the White House. He’s achieved that already and then some. . . . The hard truth is: Trump only cares about Trump.

Well, it’s from Salon, no wonder.
Hint to liberals, no one aims for second place,
except liberals.
Nope. He was not running for president. He ran for and won the governorship.
Keep the bong. You might need it.
And who might that be?
Cruz is favored to win California!!
“He ran for and won the governorship.”
______________________________
Just checking. You realize winning the gubernatorial in Minnesota isn’t anything like winning the POTUS, right??
haha
A SALON article. Enough said. NO need to read.
Donald Trump does not wear a pink suit or a boa. : )

“And yet Ventura did become governor”
Unfortunately he did. His four years as governor were a ridiculous circus. He was a bloviating jerk who managed to offend just about everyone from A-Z.
The obvious temptation would be to blame the “establishment” and the “Media” - but truth be told, Jesse brought this all on himself.
I suspect Trump would be very much like Ventura - a petulant bloviating narcissist.
I saw this movie already. I don’t wanna see it again on a nationwide scale.
When he left office, his approval ratings were bad.
That is all nice... except wrong. If neither have 1200 at the convention... guess what? Either could still win. They don’t just kick you out if you don’t get 12 by then.
While he was governor my dad always called him Jesse the Brain. (very sarcastically)
The facts show that it was Rubio shopping the true story of Ted sCruz other women.
Ted sCruz other women attacked Trumps wife first, as in number one.
The Holy Annointed One, “Ted sCruz other women” will fall. He is a false idol erected to decieve voters. And he is doing thst very well.
Just look at all the conservatives endorsing him, crickets.
