Donald Trump Begs Us Not to Make Him Run for President

The greatest will-he, won’t-he candidate this side of Chris Christie (Yes, I’m talking about Donald Trump ) is making delicate hints toward yet another run for president. Trump might not be out of the race just yet, though according to him, it really depends on his show.

Still considering a run as an independent, Trump admits that the decision will be difficult because, well, he loves himself so much.

“I love my business. I love what I’m doing. I love this whole thing of what Donald Trump does,” the real estate mogul said on CBS’s Face the Nation on Sunday.

Trump admits that going head-to-head with President Obama for the top seat in the nation isn’t exactly something he wants to do, but he will boldly sacrifice his dreams and passions under the right conditions. He does view the upcoming election as anyone’s race, saying “the right independent could win,” adding his condition that , “if I don’t see a person that is going to win—that’s tantamount—I would certainly think about doing it.”

Referencing his earlier run, Trump said: “If I didn’t have the show, I probably would have maybe just kept going because I was doing well, as you know. I was leading in the polls.”

He continued with his reservations about a future run: “I mean, I built a great company, a great business,” he said. “I hope I don’t have to, but I may. Absolutely. The number one thing for me is this country. Our country’s in a lot of trouble. So I may. I hope I don’t have to.”

Now this might just be me, but I think every once in a while Trump looks at his well-coiffed dome in the mirror some mornings, whispers “ President Trump…” and that’s what determines whether or not he’ll run that week.

But what do you think?
