If I had a dime for every time someone said this or that was going to be the end of the Trump candidacy or presidency, I'd have a LOT of dimes.

And quitting because he is not a quitter and he will be fighting and do even more for America as an ex-President than he ever could as President. Thirty per cent of America will believe he is the best ex-President we ever had, and tune into the new Trump-TV, with your host, Donald Trump.
