conspiracy time: a backdoor deal is made with trump from the biden admin.

it includes promises like charges dropped, pardons, and making his state problems go away. all he has to do is be virulently pro-genocide on the campaign. i mean openly calling for U.S. boots on the ground, U.S. ground invasions of Lebanon and Yemen, and promises of full air support at israel's disposal, no questions asked. they even give him notes to read.

and he's so deflated at this point that he takes the out instead of being usual trump.

all just to make himself seem the worst choice. bing bam he loses by some margin and his problems go away.
