Would Donald Trump really drop out for $150 million?
“I bet if someone offered him $150 million to drop out, he would,” one former Trump adviser told POLITICO, unprompted, during an interview Friday.
.. One nationally known and well-connected investor told POLITICO that the idea was attractive, despite the practical hurdles. “There are any number of both Republican and Democratic donors who would” put up money, the investor wrote. “But the coordination (donor side) and ego (candidate) side seem overwhelming.” The investor suggested that donors might induce Trump to take a deal by offering to fund his reported ambitions to start his own media company.
.. It’s said, though, that everyone has their price, and Cuban thinks Trump is no exception: “5 billion, he would.”
