You can't be serious. He's in a position to profit greatly by being POTUS.

In order to be president, he has to personally cut ties with the business that's been his entire livelihood and leave running it to his kids or lesser executives (which he would never do under normal circumstances if his ego is as inflated as some believe). And yet he pursued the presidency knowing he'd have to eventually do that, which is rather interesting.
Look up "Puppet Master".

Not to mention that over the last year and a half he's been under more scrutiny and stress than he's likely ever been in the last six decades of his life. Again: why bother?
The dude LOVES scrutiny. It's his stock and trade. And how do you know he's under stress? I think he's relishing every second of it cause he's got a rabid base of followers who truly would let him get away with shooting someone on 5th avenue.
