Promise?

This is the best campaign promise Donald Trump has ever made:
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said if he loses the Republican nomination, people shouldn't expect him to stick around in the public eye.

..."I'm not sure you're ever going to see me there. I don't think I'm going to lose, but if I do, I don't think you're ever going to see me again, folks. I think I'll go to Turnberry and play golf or something."
Byeeeeeeeeeee!

Naturally, this was accompanied by more of his baby-man tantruming about how politics is hard: "They fight like hell for six months, and they're saying horrible things, the worst things you can imagine." Boo-hoo. Says the man who, just on Friday, said Clinton is "the worst possible representative a woman can have and that "the only thing she's got going is the women card," in one fell swoop demeaning Clinton and her female supporters.

(And doing so without a trace of irony that his campaign of explicit misogyny designed to appeal to sexist men means if there's anyone playing a gender card in this primary, it's him.)

Honestly, I don't even know how much Trump even wants to be president anymore. He's so brittle and so insecure, and the rough and tumble of presidential campaigning is clearly taking its toll on him. I bet at this point there's nothing he'd love more than an excuse to go away to "play golf or something."
