[Mik]

I think he's right.

Wouldn't surprise me at all.

He's too old, despite his apparent vigor.

He's too toxic, and I think he's smart enough to know that.

He'll pass, and anoint endorse DiSantis as his successor.

The novelty has also worn off.

I’m guessing his life is much more enjoyable now. Very little incremental gain for him to do it again.

He can get the rally love any time he wants it.

[Jolly]

He probably read all those mean things you said about him...

You know, I think you're right.

"Been there, done that. No need to do it again."

He might play the role of (presumptive) kingmaker come 2024.

Shit, I'm 71 years old, and the LAST thing I want is more power, more stress, more adulation.

But, that's just me.

Mr. Trump the elder statesman, offering sage advice with quiet dignity.

LOL, well, of course, there's that.

This country doesn't deserve a good president.

I agree. However, I think the hardest thing for President Trump to handle would be to be "irrelevant". So, he will continue to tease about going for president again for as long as possible.

He’ll run,

Get your MAGA hat before they sell out!

@jolly Why, you think there’s going to be another run on toilet paper?

I don't know about where you are, but around here they were still setting up little stands trying to sell Trump merchandise long after the election. I thought it was pretty funny.

Chemicals.

If he doesn't run, he is a loser forever.

Trump vs Harris

An approval rating in the low 20s vs an approval rating the low 30s

Trump vs Harris. Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse.

I’d like to find someone with similar policies but better demeanor.

[Jolly]

If he runs, that's what you're gonna get. I'd rather have mean tweets and economic prosperity, thank you.

[Mik]

The only benefit aside from policies is the fun of watching heads explode.

[Jolly]

Can you imagine the angst at CNN and PMSNBC? If we torpedo him, our ratings tank as soon as he's out of the picture. If we help elect him, we're guaranteed four years of eyeballs.

**Arrrrgh!!**

[Mik]

That is exactly what I was picturing.
