US Pres. elections: Trump Is Self-Sabotaging His Campaign Because He Never Really Wanted The Job In The First Place

Michael Moore who a few weeks back said he was sure Trump would win the PresidentIal elections now is saying something different again.

Donald Trump never actually wanted to be president of the United States. I know this for a fact. I’m not going to say how I know it. I’m not saying that Trump and I shared the same agent or lawyer or stylist or, if we did, that that would have anything to do with anything.
