Dear Trump supporters..Happily, a level of civility seems to have returned to FR, after being absent for several months. And I'll own up to having tossed fuel on the fire, on more than one occasion.

But this is an honest attempt at understanding. After being in quiet mode for almost 12 hours, Trump has started Tweeting again.

And I don't understand what he means? Is he saying that it is NOT worth his while to self fund for the office of the president?

“I don’t believe I have been given any credit by the voters for self-funding my campaign, the only one. I will keep doing, but not worth it!”
Hate on the voters.

No just another example of how a narcissist reacts to anything said or done to them in a negative way.

Don doesn’t have the cash on hand to run a full campaign. Not even close. Almost all of his net worth is tied up in real estate that can’t easily be liquidated. And I can’t believe he would mortgage his fortune for a campaign that he could lose.

Anyway, if he’s really going to run in the general election, it’s a sure bet that he will need bow-coo donations, up to one billion.

Therefore, the tweet might be the opening gambit in an attempt to get his supporters disabused of the notion that he can self-fund for the duration. Maybe he thinks he needs to break the news gradually, so as not to disappoint his most avid followers.

oy. the not worth it refers to the beginning part of the sentence. Self funding is not worth NOT GETTING CREDIT FOR IT FROM THE VOTERS.

So keep telling him he is wonderful for not being bought, and for being wonderful for having bought politicians in the past.

Getting the credit for self-funding is not worth it, but he will continue doing it.
