@white_male @c @leespringfield1903 speaking of this, I was reading something that said "notice they didn't take him to court in NY until after he said he was running - this implies they were holding this over him to keep him from not running."

So the question is then: if the GOP establishment hates him, the system already has a dead man walking as president, proving they can put whatever festering pile of bugs they want in the office - why would Trump run?

It's not like he's on good terms with Bibi. So who, big power wise would push him to do it - risk his own personal safety that much?

It's possible that a bunch of billionaires got together with him and stroked his ego, but short of that, why?
