3. He will announce creation of TrumpTV with Bannon & Ailes & Hannity. He has excuses lined up.

If he is within -3 pts popular, he will fire up lawyers and challenges all over. If he is within -7 pts he will claim the playing field was not fair, the election was rigged and the media was biased. If he is below -7 pts he will claim that there is a media conspiracy in conjunction with a Republican Party conspiracy.

He will rile up his supporters. Take care. Watch out for vandalism and violence.

He will wittingly or unwittingly cause his base to desert the Grumpy Old Men party which will be a lot smaller and a bit more like the old Grand party.

His ego may goad him to become leader of a new party, but I bet TrumpTV / Trump Media will occupy most of his attention instead.
