Well, from an outsider looking in, Trump's self-destruct
tendencies are now kicking in. 

Fwiw, deep down I really do not think Trump wants to win. I think
he wants the fame of running, but in the end he likes his
wheeling and dealing too much to have to give up control of his
business empire to someone else. He will also not like the press
magnification when his taxes are finally released to reveal all
of his "interesting" business connections. If he loses, he does
not have to reveal his taxes and he and his media cohorts can go
off and do their next project.

Very OT, but smile for the day -
Best cartoon I saw was a Trump ad with the voice over caption "I
am Vladimir Putin and I approved this message"

:-)
