Another suggestion for him - he should announce that he’s bigger than Jesus, and he prefers his saviors to not get nailed to a stick. “That Jesus - not a winner!” Tell anyone who prefers Jesus over Trump that “They’re losers - sad!”

Could he not just “buy” Breitbart or similar and rebrand it as “Trump’s Truth” or some similar nonsense? Properly monetized that could make some coin.

Ref this [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=807888](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=807888) it would provide Trump with his true need, ongoing continuous mass adulation. As well as serve as a launching pad for his ambitions in 2020, whatever they may be.

The one I’m hoping for is for him to get so pissed off at the “backstabbers” that he starts loudly urging his followers to refuse to vote for downticket Republicans who aren’t giving him their full unreserved support.

Didn’t he already make a few comments of this ilk before Ryan fell back in line and the unendorsements stopped ringing?

And in reference to the Obamas or some other popular black public figure.

I expect him to commit suicide, actually. Not right away, but within the next 2 years. Or just die from “natural causes.”

Autoerotic asphyxiation.

Oh, wait, that’s his _new_ sensation, not his _next_ sensation.

That would win him the election.

I don’t care what he does after the election as long as he doesn’t hint about 2nd amendment solutions to the rigged election. He wants to make a TV or cable network? Fine, he will have to fight it out with Fox for the same audience. He wants to make North Korea (or, more likely, Russia) great again? Go right ahead. I certainly would appreciate never hearing the name again. Then I can go back to bidding suit contracts.

Posted less than 12 hours before Trump managed to get himself booed at a charity benefit.:eek:

What could he do next?

Throw puppies off the roof of Trump Tower  
Tell blue collar workers in Ohio they’re too stupid get new jobs  
Call his crime program a “final solution” to urban violence  
[Take a ride in a tank](https://i.sli.mg/Wk8mKa.jpg)  
Literally shoot himself in the foot while posing for a photo op with a hunting party  
Reach over the rail to grab a foul ball at Wrigley Field

There’s still more than two weeks before the election. Imagine the possibilities!
