Just like a true Republican do you mean.

How about this? Herr Drumpf is profiting from his own campaign like a true capitalist. He may be promising to make America great, does not have a clue as to how, but sure knows about revenues and profits, not to mention smelling a great opportunity. So his assets and brand names are profiting from his campaign venture. So even if he loses, he wins like every good capitalist. It's called hedging your bets. Hooray for Drumpf.
Donald Trump’s Campaign Cycles $6 Million into Trump Companies

The campaign has paid about $520,000 to Trump Tower Commercial LLC and the Trump Corporation for rent and utilities. The campaign also paid $423,000 to Trump’s private Mar-a-Lago Club in south Florida for rent and catering and an additional $135,000 in rent and utilities to Trump Restaurants LLC.

And let's not forget the Trump steak, water and wine, snake oil.

No, Trump is toast. The main reason Lewandowski was fired was that he wasn't raising any money. But the problem isn't the campaign manager. It's the candidate. He's too toxic.
All the stories circulating in the press about the disarray in the Trump campaign and the people unendorsing him are setting the stage for dumping Trump at the convertion. The Republicans will draft Ryan and he will defeat Clinton.

We seem to agree. Trump can and will take the money and run.
Heck they can serve Trump water and wine at the GOP convention.

You guys are nuts if you think the Trumpies will sit still for a convention coup against their fearless leader. They're going to burn Cleveland to the ground if Cruz or Ryan are installed as the candidate. They hate those two 'establishment' pols with 'white' hot hate.

Care to put a little money on that? I don't think Trump's supporters would sit still for a brokered convention but what makes you think the GOP cares about a little bloodshed?
Also, it won't be Cruz. His appeal is too narrow and the GOP establishment hate him almost as much as they do Trump.

Channeling Mitt Romney, eh?
The people behind stealing Trump's delegates are Cruz Missile Ted's supporters.
