$10M to get to second place in a winner take all contest? This is the kind of brain we need running the country. /s

This is perhaps the first contest where the winner may be in prison and may not be able to legally or politically "win".

Winner is also 77, unhealthy, and going through a very stressful period of his life. Probably a decent chance of him dying of a heart attack or something.

Stop. I can only get so erect

If that happens, I imagine within 30 seconds of the news being released. We're going to get soo many conspiracy theories about it. With those those conspiracy theories, there's going to be problems for everyone else.

For anyone else that would be a stressor but he's never cared about anyone but himself

10m at a chance to win by default basically.

If someone had this tenacity 8 years ago.... But this time it actually almost makes sense to try to bank on him failing out. But then again, he survives it all, always so

The only way any of them still make any sense running is if they assume that Trump is going to be dead or in prison by next year.

Vivek's entire brown-nosing campaign is just a VP audition.
