I don't buy it. If he really said that I think it might be about saving face. Kind of like when you don't get a promotion at work then you say, "I didn't really want it anyway." So you feel better about losing.

I don't think someone who doesn't really want the job spends the last five years of their life, plus a ton of their own money pursuing it. If he really didn't want the job he could have done a few things. First, not run a second time. Second, during the primaries he could have gone all batshit crazy like half the other candidates did and self-destructed. He could have also come out and been sluggish during the debates, but he looked like he really wanted to win the debates.
