Having lived through the last 12 months, I don’t find this bizarre in the least.
Maybe he’ll become a new perennial candidate for POTUS, something we’ve been missing for many years now.

Not so. Trump was rich, white, straight and male. If he’d lacked any one of those traits he never would have been able to come within miles of winning the nomination, much less the general election.
Of course Trump supporters wouldn’t have seen it that way. They’d tell themselves and others “of COURSE I didn’t support that candidate, they were clearly an idiot who lacked both the experience and the temperament for the office.” And it would be an easy thing to convince themselves of, because they’d be right.

anyone know what’s up with the street address given for Green Day on this form? Appears to be a somewhat dumpy old house in suburbia. https://goo.gl/maps/S1X5zPoiahSrpfRp7
Maybe he doesn’t want to split the Democratic vote?
