RE: Trump quintupled his Trump Tower rent when donors began paying for it
If Newt Gingrich taught us anything, it's that running for president can make you a lot of money.
Does anyone still believe that Trump actually wants to be president?

Why do you think anyone runs for POTUS? Yes, there are those that like power, etc but the real payoff comes AFTER the term/s are over, in the private sector.

Without a doubt. That has been the case for many, many years.
What is relatively knew however is the fact that running and losing can still be lucrative.

Running and losing still makes folks a household name. That's been going on just as long as folks have been running and winning. These days that notoriety is more easily translated into other endeavors though, so I agree with that.

I think you are being deliberately misled to save the down ballot. I feel bad. A big disappointment is heading your way. It's an intentional deception so they don't get crushed in other races. They need the base to believe they have a shot.
So lets talk about that big disappointment you talked about in November. Once again, your genius is proven.

That's Trumps base. It shouldn't surprise. He will be throttled in November. This I can assure you. Don't fall for it. It's the unskewed polls from 2012 all over again. Learn this time.
