I believe that most politicans are always running for office, YDB95 - Donald Trump didn't want a political career, and he only turned to politics when he thought he needed to do something to turn this nation around (e.g. Make America Great Again!)
Come on, Dump. The "deer-in-the-headlights" look 45 had plastered on his face the night of the election said it all. "Oh, fuck!
He not only believed right up to that point that he wouldn't win, he also never intended to or ever really wanted to win. 2016 was just a repeat of his 2000 "toss my name into the mix" scam for branding purposes that accidentally worked.
45 has never done anything that was driven by patriotism because his entire life has been one egocentric con after another. Once the shock of victory wore off, he realized he had just pulled off the ultimate ego stroke even if only by a technicality. The problem for him then became having to put that ego aside and prove his abilities with actions that were actually positive for the country.
At this point he has pretty much proven that he was incapable of doing that and is only slightly better at running a country than he was at running casinos. But with two more years of trillion dollar deficits staring him in the face and promoting yet more trickle down tax cut schemes, he might even surpass that record.
