You’re going to refrain from making a buffoon of yourself and keep your mouth shut?

I thought Trump said he would run, if he didn’t have to go through the primaries.

Trump is lot better than Obama and Hillary.

And unlike most RINOs, he would be VOCAL.

Trump is an interesting cat. Don’t think he’d be President, but at Commerce Secretary? That would probably be OK

Trump should switch parties and run against HRC in the general election.
