Donald Trump on Friday said he does not enjoy running for president and criticized state and federal prosecutors for not offering him plea deals, capping a rough seven days for the Republican presidential nominee.

      In addition to all the legal issues already brought up, there is also the fact that Trump is straight up lying about this - as usual of course. He is one of the most extreme narcissists known to the history of man. Being and/or running for president is giving him an absolutely limitless faucet of attention to wrap his fat lips around and suckle like the runt who finally managed to kick the rest of the piglets out of the litter. He is helplessly addicted to it. It’s like heroin to him.

        When you think of it, so many of them are immigrants. They don’t belong in our suburbs. They don’t belong in our homes. They should go back to the desert where they belong. But no, instead they’re pricking us with their thorns and I shudder to think what they’re doing to our pets and the wildlife.

          Amen brother! A real American like President Trump shouldn’t be shoving Mexican plants like cacti up his ass. He should be fucking himself with the most American thing of all: the barrel of a semi-automatic rifle.

    I have a feeling the quiet part might be something like this:

    “… but I need to run to avoid prison.”

    Then quit, you fuckwitted traitor.

    The only thing making you run is your fear of fucking jail.

    Jails not so bad. I’m sure you and your underpaid legal team could work out a deal.

    He doesn’t like having towin the election. He would much rather it just be given to him, like everything else in his life.

      I don’t. I think campaigning, rallies, and fundraiser dinners are actually his favorite things to do that arent golf. It’s people paying to stroke his ego. It’s a narcissist’s wildest dream. He just doesn’t like facing the consequences of his actions over the past 8 years.

        I’m on the side that he never intended to win at all and he just wanted to get in the spotlight to have some followers to sell gold sprayed products to. Now he’s in way too deep and can’t dig his way out. Tough tits.

    This is a man that’s run for office 4 times, and a man that has not stopped campaigning and holding rallies for 10 years.

    If he actually wanted to get elected, he would shut the fuck up and stay off the campaign stage. That’s when his polls go up. But homie loves campaign rallies and campaign press SO much, that he can’t stop.

    Well boo-friggin-hoo! Nobody’s holding a gun to his head and forcing him to run. His legal problems are 100% his own damn fault, and he’s putting the whole country up for sale to the highest bidder in order to evade restitution. I eagerly await the day when I never have to hear about this blowhard moron ever again.

    criticized state and federal prosecutors for not offering him plea deals

    “We won’t prosecute you for treason if you drop out of the race.” Is that what he’s expecting?

    I really, really hope that this is a sign that Donnie is genuinely worried that he’ll end up in prison.
