Is Trump’s ‘Campaign’ Just a Scheme to Launch Trump TV?

[Eryk]

Trump has no campaign infrastructure and he isn't doing the basics of campaigning. If he isn't trying to be President, what is his campaign?

What it could well be is a plan to launch an independent media organ. Sarah Ellison reports that Trump is exploring the possibility of a television or other media venture that would cater to his loyalists. “According to several people briefed on the discussions, the presumptive Republican nominee is examining the opportunity presented by the ‘audience’ currently supporting him,” she writes. “He has also discussed the possibility of launching a 'mini-media conglomerate' outside of his existing TV-production business, Trump Productions LLC.”

He's just trying to enrich himself. That's his whole life story.

Baseless conjecture.

Baseless conjecture.

He's a political dilettante, but he surely knows that he does not have the electoral college math to win. He has no chance.

And no one wants to be seen doing business with him, so he's going to be a media blowhard. He is rehearsing for that now.

He'll damage the GOP and then he'll compete with FOX. Conservatives are going to hate him. Many already do.

Once again, conjecture.
