Of course he did not expect to win. This is not a shocking revelation. Not only have his “friends” been saying that all along, but he himself made it very clear through his own actions. Did he divest himself of his business interests when he received the nomination? No. Did he form a serious transition team in the months leading up to the election? According to Chris Christie, it was like pulling teeth. That’s not how a committed candidate would behave.
Do you have a link that quotes Chris Christie saying that?
And everyone single one of MY Republican friends who voted for Trump didn't want him as the Republican nominee. They didn't think he would be the guy. When he was, of course they hoped he won because it's all about the team winning.
Now they are exhausted of defending him and his policies.
Does saying that make you feel better? Did it occur to you that they like Trump? Anyone who votes on "a team" in politics is an idiot. You vote for their policies, not for a team. I know New Yorkers who like and wanted Trump to win. Get out of your circle moneill, you'll learn something.
right, for someone who had no real "desire", He sure ran himself ragged, attending 3-4 rallies a day, 5 days a week, for months..meanwhile Hilly, was lucky to make 2 appearances a week..
Exactly. He knew what he was doing, he was pushing real hard.
And if it is true he didn't want to win, then which candidate did he secretly support? Crooked Hillary? Lil Marco? Low energy Jeb? He tried to make fools out of every one.
If he's not playing to lose, could have fooled many of us. He loses a lot.

Probably not comprehensive.
You can't win without playing. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. That's why so many people are stuck in a rut, they lose because they won't try to win. It's too scary for them. New flash
Assuming Mueller and his team of high priced investigators with practically limitless power draw a blank after 2 years of investigation it may be time to give it break. Anything Cohen has to say will already be in the hands of Mueller.
Shrug. I don't know why you say that Mueller is drawing blanks. He isn't.
Do you have a link that quotes Chris Christie saying that?
I doubt Trump ever played to lose.
Christie wrote a book and has done multiple interviews in which he described in detail Trump’s resistance to forming a serious transition team and his vociferous complaints about having to fund it. (The Feds provide space, computers, and other support services, but it’s up to the candidate to fund the hiring of staff.) That’s not the way a man who really expected to be president would behave.

Trump !! Cant beat the federal government. Say what you will..but it s donald trump against the USA. This is the first witness for the prosecution. Trump has met his match. I m just glad Cohen s still walking around. Any one of those republican circus clowns could have arranged for him to be harmed. Anyone who supports this pres not going to jail deserves the crash and burn of their own career. Glad for the media. They are the preservationists of our democracy.
