looking at his health yesterday he might have legitimate reasons not to run. hell he might not even make it to nov.

but dropping out of something due to health reasons would be very trumpy. he did it before.

and if pence has to run instead, i can see the gop scrubbing his record of anything and everything right now. pay it off, kill it off, blackmail it off, hide it, every word pence has ever said could be getting an anal cleansing.

1. Absolutely zero.

[exboyfil]

3. He will die before he gives up

[LonePirate]

13. I disagree. If it looks like he will face a landslide loss, he will drop out to save face.

He will use health worries as his defense so he technically does lose by a massive margin. Of course without him on the ballot, the Republicans will lose even worse as their racist base sits home and Dems vote as if 45 was on the ballot.

[former9thward]

42. There is no polling to back you up.

If there is maybe you can link to it.

[Cosmocat]

26. How many times do people have to start with this?

Dude is angling to be our first dictator.

[Generic Brad]

40. He's not strong enough

He plays the strongman, but he is too weak physically and intellectually to pull it off.

[Cosmocat]

44. He isnt the problem

The problem is his party which is so serbile, craven and power hungry, as well ss how hateful and childish their "base" is, and the mushy "middle" which indulges Republican fuck wittery time after time after time because "they are bith the same."

He shouldnt have even gotten the nonination in the first place, but he did because 1/3 of the country is sick snd depraved enough to FULLY enbrace him and far too many simple minded to be brainwashed to think a decent, capable woman was the spawn of satan.

[smirkymonkey]

36. He just might.

He's not looking too well.

[mitch96]

20. Agreed...... his ego would not let him................ nt

[NewJeffCT]

2. unless he has terrible health issues

I would say 0

[Turbineguy]

4. He has three choices

1. Win (and by any means possible).

2. Go to prison

3. Die

[htuttle]

8. Or

4. Resign due to illness, then defect to Russia

[albacore]

14. Like this...?

[not_the_one]

21. I bet the turd doesn't trust Vlad further than he can throw him...

He'd "fall" out a 4th floor window, eat some Polonium that disagreed with him, get shot in the face in broad daylight, you know, Putin's way of dealing with "inconvenient truths"...

Besides, the turd covered for MBS's murdering of Khashoggi, and Jared is MBS's BFF. It has all been arranged.

[BKDem]

16. #3 works for me.

The Rs might try to run someone other than Pence, but I would root for them to fail.

[EndlessWire]

43. I don't believe he will

ever go to prison. Nor do we need him to. We just need him gone from government along with the TP.

He's never going to voluntarily quit. I don't think his brain is wired that way. And, he doesn't listen to anyone.

We could dangle a boatload of money in front of his face and make it the better offer, for him to quit and leave the country. Let him go live in one of his overseas hotels that Iran will eventually attack. What goes around, comes around.

[abqtommy]

5. It's a difficult thing to decide what tRUMP might do. He's totally unpredictable except by

knowing that he'll do something to screw things up. His cultists won't want to let him go. He's their Joy
Boy but then the reTHUGS might finally be deciding that tRUMP is a liability in a fair and secure election. So it's wait and see. I'd be happy to see tRUMP resign. We are living in interesting times.

[hlthe2b]

6. My theory is Pence struck a bargain he continues with. He sold his soul to Trump in all things

either KNOWING Trump will never make it beyond election day or believing so, but likely hoping he and his deterioration can be hidden sufficiently to get them reelected at which time Pence gets the prize. I can not imagine those around him do not know how badly he is deteriorating and at what pace. Seems they must all be plotting to save their meal ticket prospects...

Pence surely knows he'd never get elected on his own, so this is his only chance.

[onecaliberal]

7. Zero

[COLGATE4]

9. Less than zero

[onenote]

10. No matter how many times this is asked here, the answer is still the same: Zero. Nada. Zilch.

[Aristus]

11. Zero.

Don't expect him to drop before November, either.

Bill Cosby *spit* once described a fellow runner on his track team at Howard University, stating that he looked like he was going to drop dead any minute. He said "You'd run behind him forever waiting for him to drop. And that's how you end up: behind him."

[AJT]

12. Zero

[wishstar]

15. Zero- he was quite revived today with his grandiose lying egotistism fully on display

He seemed very upbeat and energetic today, probably anticipating the big upcoming rally in Toledo Ohio tonight where he can rant and rave to his heart's content while his rabid cult followers provide the infusions of narcissistic supply he desperately craves.

[sarisataka]

17. It has been four years,

Counting his campaign and we are still recycling the "he's going to drop out" fantasy.

Barring death, he will be the GOP candidate in the election.

[Cosmocat]

27. Right?

We will be lucky if we CAN get him out of the white house, ever ...

[RockRaven]

18. Zero. Politics is a better source of laundering dirty money into his own pocket than real estate.

Trump is a grifter to the core. He will never stop.

[njhoneybadger]

19. 00000000000000000000000000000000

[Downtown Hound]

22. Zero. n/t

[tman]

23. He has a very good chance at being reelected.

Why would he step down?

[sarcasmo]

24. Zero chance. The Trump kids would prop him up Weekend At Bernie's style

Before they would give up the grift.

[Demsrule86]

25. Zero odds...he will run rather than be subject to prosecution.

[liberal N proud]

28. He is too vain to drop out or resign

He has no shame for what he is doing and couldn't stand someone seeing him as a quitter

[evertonfc]

29. his health is fine

been hearing this for 3 years. Guy is old, obese and in terrible shape but will probably live to 106

[DFW]

30. Only if he does so in the literal sense

The WH physician is bound by oath to say nothing, but that just means that Trump gets to pour out his crap to the last drop--literally. If he drops of exhaustion with a camera rolling, he'll get himself pumped up chemically, and 40 million Republican voters (and 53 Republican Senators) will say "health doesn't matter" unless, of course you are referring to Hillary and pneumonia. Only if Trump drops due to something permanent will the Trumpanzees finally admit he has/had health issues, and even then 75% of them would vote for his corpse over a Democrat.

Crap, it DOES pain me to say that about my native land, but shutting my eyes to reality won't change it

[cbdo2007]

31. I think he'll stay on the ticket snd name Ivanka VP...

Then if he wins he will resign for medical reasons so she can be first woman President.

Seems like something he would do.

[Tipperary]

32. Not a chance.

Zero.

[no_hypocrisy]

33. Reminds me of

[GeorgeGist]

34. He'll drop dead.

.

[Quixote1818]

35. He has a better chance of dying. nt

[sakabatou]

37. Zero to none

[Xolodno]

38. He's too "ill" to accept defeat.

...its not even a rationalization. The guy is sick and will take everything and everyone down with him.

[cwydro]

39. No way.

He’s enjoying himself too much.

He thinks he’s the king of the world.

[oasis]

41. Nooooooooooooo! Someone please pump him with vitamins.

I can't stand Pence.
