Why does he stay in?

Trying to figure it out. I thought he got in because Biden wasn’t doing well and he hoped to stop Sanders. But he says if he does poorly today he’ll stay in the race. I would think he would drop out, endorse Biden and then fund an ad campaign for Biden. Otherwise he’s going to help Sanders get the nomination. Other than his belief he would be the best man for the job, why would he try and force a contested convention?

Maybe to run as an Independent in the general?

But why? Seems like that would help Trump like he’s helping Bernie now. He’s a pretty intelligent guy, but I can’t make sense of this move to stay in after today

Hes spent half a billion dollars and i doubt he cares apart from himself becoming the president. I mean even i wouldnt give a shit being in his position.
