I hope I live to see this headline:

VOTERS TELL TRUMP, "YOU'RE FIRED!"

Nothing would be more humiliating for him than to lose by a landslide in the Electoral College. If he cannot turn the polls around, he might actually consider resigning? (Just as Scarborough has noted) He would go out on his own terms. Not as a "loser".

He’s not going to want to go out as the biggest loser in history, and he could probably get Pence to pardon him. I’d like to see him resign, and then Pence who has been eating his shit for years finally get sick of him and not issue any pardons. That would be great and not impossible. Certainly if Pence takes his place as the rethug candidate I think by then the party will be trying to distance themselves.

The recognition of the Fact that he is a LOSER makes his deeply damaged psyche so painful that he does what Dark Triad personas do - HE ATTACKS that which is causing the 'narcissistic injury' to his false self....................

I almost feel sorry for him.

In fact, my sister and I were talking yesterday and we were trying to think of of what "excuse" he might come up with. I doubt he'd used his health since he views anyone who has any illnesses as weak.

I'd want him to wait until closer to the election.....

9. He would just need to give his Party a few weeks to pick a VP candidate to run with Mike Pence.

The Republicans will have no choice but to do what they did in 1974, when they walked over to the White House to deliver a message to Nixon, and to let him know that he did not have the majority of Senators on his side.

11. I Want To See Him Not Just Lose, But Lose Bigger Than ANYONE EVER

I heard that no presidential candidate has EVER gotten less than 40% of the vote. I want him to be the first. That would absolutely KILL his massive ego. And then he can take his humiliation and think about it for the rest of his life in prison.

What I really LOVE about this whole episode is that he only ran for President to build up his "brand" and to enrich himself and his family, but now the Trump name is poison. He's damaged the Trump "brand" forever. Just like every scheme he's tried over his pathetic little life, this one blew up in his face spectacularly.
