Trump believes he is going to lose the nomination. If he thought he was going to be the nominee, there wouldn’t be a problem signing the loyalty pledge. He believes the 3 or 4 other candidates he despises have a better chance at winning the nomination than he does.
My point is none of the other candidates should have agreed to sign it. It confirms they’ll support someone who tried to overthrow the government before they’ll vote Democrat.
And I’m not sure you’re right re: Trump’s motives. He wouldn’t agree to support the other candidates in 2016 either, and this time around I wouldn’t be surprised if he ran independent if he doesn’t get the nomination.
Trump’s motive is always narcissism. I don’t give a rat’s ass about his motives. I’m just amused at his belief. He has stated his concern that he could lose the nomination to someone he can’t support, and used the likelihood of his loss as his argument that he shouldn’t sign the pledge.
He didn’t think he was going to win in 2016. He lost in 2020. And he doesn’t think he’s going to win in 2024.
