Sorry, I didn’t realize that the thread had been created already. I meant this to be the first post.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t believe Trump is serious about being president. Like many others, I think he’s a troll who’s just stirring things up to draw attention to himself.
So I’ve created this poll (and pool) so that everyone can go on the record with the date they think he will drop out. The winners will be those who pick the first date after which he officially drops out. That is, if he drops out on Jan. 5, all those who picked Jan. 15 win. (I don’t know what we’ll do if there is any ambiguity about when he “officially” drops out.)
I have included all currently scheduled primary and caucus dates, as well as every day of the two national conventions in July 2016. (I’d be surprised if he drops out during the Democratic con-vention, but I’ve included it for the sake of parity.) You can also say that you expect him to go all the way to election day and either win or lose.
Please note that this is an open poll: your user name will appear with your vote, so that we can properly laud those prescient few who pick the correct date. (The praise of your fellow Dopers will be the only prize that winners will receive.)
