Mr. Rove later told people he believed Mr. Trump was confused and scared in anticipation of the general election, according to people who have heard Mr. Rove’s account.

That struck a chord with me, because Trump's extraordinary concession that he may actually lose the election, its language in particular, had already gotten me wondering if he's scared of the Presidency and is (perhaps subconsciously) not actively trying to win the election...using "just continuing to be myself" as an excuse for (perhaps also subconsciously) actively trying to lose it.

This may be a rerun of "The Producers": he may have gotten into the campaign to promote his brand with the expectation of losing, and having won is hoist. (Has "Springtime for Señor Hitler" turned to winter?)

Maybe he's not all that stupid? confused
