Why Trump won't run, Three words only...."It's a hoax" Trump killed people with those words.

.....As we play Donald Trump saying those words over & over on TV, Trump doesn't have a chance. Calling the pandemic
"A HOAX is one of the stupidest, most idiotic things he has ever said, and if he runs again, he will lose because of those
three words. He could have said something else, that would have saved people's lives, but he didn't. Why? Because Trump
don't care about anyone but "himself.
.....And those three words,.... "It's a Hoax" prove it beyond doubt. I don't think he ever apologized for saying those words.
....That is another reason he won't run...Never apologizes for mistakes he makes...NEVER MEANS NEVER..

...I think that he will make it look like he will run, and then take the money he raises and run, and then keep it.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________

...He will say something like, "I am going to give someone else a chance this time." but the real reason he says he might
run, is to raise money and then run away with the money, maybe go to Russia or to his "golf course" and sit it out..and
secretly laugh at those that gave him money again.

That is who Trump is, and will always be...just like he called those graves in the cemetery "suckers"...
Yes, that is another one that we can use, but he won't run for the first reason. Number 2 is good too, says Stu.

he CAUSED IT, THEN TRUMP won't run, and Stuart G...is wrong with that reason...& that is OK.

would have to advise that Trump hasn't a prayer in getting re-elected. His base has shrunk, not grown. Everyone who is considered a "marginal voter" already heard his schtick-- for years, and know he lies all the time. If he runs, he'll just tire everyone out. Oh! and did I say he's boring?

economy was booming when Biden took office then he started the COVID and shut the whole country down.
They forget that in 2020 when the virus started and all the restaurants and stores were closed that Trump was in
office then. They still think the COVID is a hoax it isn't any worse than the flu, they claim everyone that has died the last
couple years were blamed on COVID because the hospitals get paid more money for it. They believe Biden shut
down all the pipelines and stopped all drilling. I would say about 75% of the Trump voters believe that
and the ones that don't would vote for Hitler before voting for a Democrat. It all boils down to maybe 5% of the
country we may reach. Then there is inflation. If Republicans take control of the Congress next year they will do
everything they can do to wreck the country so a Republican can walk into office 2024.

Democrat and his brother is a Trumpster. I told him I was sorry to hear his brother passed away and asked if
it was COVID. He said that is what they claim. He said his brother had a bad heart but they put all deaths
down as COVID because the government pays them extra for it.

It’s the only way he can avoid legal consequences for the crimes of his first term.

And, the grifting is so much more lucrative as president…

1. his ego. He can't give up

2. executive privilege. It's the only way he is shielded against prosecution for his numerous crimes


Factor in the fact that a lot of red states have rigged voting so that he can't lose. They will choose him whether or not the voters chose someone else. And they can do that legally.

He has always been a hoax. The Repukes know it - even now - and enough of them don't care. Or they won't care as long as they believe Chump can win. We have to convince the Repukes that Chump cannot win, and they'll abandon him immediately.
