How soon before he quits?

[randr]

He has really never in his life not quit any of his endevors. This time he is in need of pardon from Pence before the transition.
I betting on before December.

1. He'll time it to offset some indictments so he can recapture the news cycle one more time. n/t

2. Not before he sells many pardons and

steals everything that is not nailed down.

[unblock]

3. i've been saying for a long time he'll let pence be president for a day

in exchange for a pardon.

4. Bankruptcy is quitting writ large

I think he will get his pardon right before the inauguration. Then on Jan. 21, the various security agencies can begin a dump of information that has been put on the back burner until the right time.

5. Officially, or de facto?

For officially, hard to say.

For de facto, it's also hard to say but for different reasons. To quit he'd need to have actually worked at the job, and he's never done that. So depending on how you count it, either today or January 20, 2017.

6. If he loses the election can he still resign?

[roamer65]

12. He can resign anytime.

7. I hope and pray and really think you could be right on this.

He won't be able to stand being a loser upfront and publicly and I think would do anything to escape that - including moving to Russia if they will have him. I really hope that happens, would show those repugs what their dear leader was always all about - himself and Russia.

8. If his family were smart, they aren't, they would facilitate an intervention

Claim he is in early stages of dementia and weasel out of possible prosecutions both Federal and State.
They could use the truth as an excuse for the first time and claim he has not been of sound mind.
