He was President before, so why did he run again?

Oh…that’s right…to stay out of prison.

... is the tacky decor and shitty food at his resorts and Trump Tower. He has never had a life. He has zero curiosity about the world. He lives in the prison of his tiny mind wherever he is.

Maybe the world wouldn't be a better place if he had just stayed in the shitty little corners of the planet that are his comfort zone -- maybe the reactionary right would have bought the WH for someone just as bad -- but I sure wish he had stayed in his comfortable darkness like the roach he is.

After all, the only thing he probably cared about was staying out of prison.

Only Federal law ones.

Staying out of jail was his top priority to run again and to win it.

... and false old story. It is part of the media "narrative" portraying Crooked Donald as a kindly businessman who has made great sacrifices to become our Dear President. Another story is that "he doesn't take his Presidential salary" (along with fellow kindly businessman Elon). Quite like Mother Theresa, aren't they? His fans really believe this story.

He ran for president the first time to spite Barack Obama (who ridiculed him at the press dinner) and because being president fed his ego BIGLY.

This time he ran to stay out of prison, to grift from the presidency, and to use his power for retribution against his enemies -- all of which together, involves destroying America's Constitutional rule of law.
