Donald Trump wants to have his cake and eat it too

Donald Trump wants to have his cake and eat it too 

The Point Chris Cillizza at CNN (email)

"SNIP......

There's a report in Politico today that former President Donald Trump is considering endorsing multiple candidates in a single race -- most notably in contested Senate Republican primaries. 

"The GOP kingmaker-in-chief has grown so distrustful of all the advice he’s getting from various aides — and so wary of being lured into picking the wrong horse — that he’s floated an idea that would essentially dilute his endorsement," reported Politico's Playbook. 

Which, well, amazing, right? Why endorse one candidate when you can endorse two?! Brilliant!

How could he think this is a good idea, you ask?  To answer that question, you have to understand how the mind of Donald Trump works.
