Look at this.
Has Donald Trump all but conceded defeat in the U.S. presidential election almost three months before polling day?
Having once again claimed that President Barack Obama had ‘founded ISIS’ along with Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, Trump speculated to CNBC about what would happen were he to fail to be elected.
“All I do is tell the truth, and if at the end of 90 days I fall in short because I’m somewhat politically [in]correct even though I’m supposed to be the smart one and even though I’m supposed to have a lot of good ideas, it’s OK.”
“I go back to a very good way of life,” Trump said. “It’s not what I’m looking to do. I think we’re going to have a victory. But we’ll see.”
This on the day that a caricature of the Republican nominee appeared on the cover of Time magazine.

On Wednesday, we wrote about why Donald Trump is going to lose in November.
What makes the polls especially damaging to Donald Trump is that his primary campaign was built almost entirely upon bluster. Whenever Jeb Bush or Ted Cruz would nail him on policy, Trump simply would retort that they were trailing him in the polls, sometimes drastically.
Trump can no longer point to a poll to prove his popularity. Right now the country doesn’t want him as its president, and he has neither the policies nor the charisma to win people over.
For those so opposed to Trump’s complete lack of empathy, or qualification to be the leader of the free world, the fact that he has acknowledged the possibility of losing can only be a good thing.
