I saw the interview with Megan Kelly. It was a direct question. He could have answered truthfully and directly, “I’m clearing the path, should I choose to run for president someday.” Instead, he gave a long, tortured answer, and sounded like a typical politician.
It’s the first time I’ve heard him sound like that, so it was disappointing.
If he’s not ready to announce a run for whatever reason, it’s a reasonable answer. Committing now would open him up to the opposition meatgrinder very early on. Not good, strategically. He’s taken steps to address a potential stumblingblock. That says to those paying attention that he’s giving it serious consideration. That’s as far as he’ll go at present. No one else has announced that I’m aware.
OK I understand now...
