This Donald Trump?

Real estate mogul and TV personality Donald Trump said on Tuesday he is a candidate for the Republican nomination in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
"I will be the greatest jobs president that God ever created," Trump said in a launch speech at his Trump Tower skyscraper in Manhattan.

He’s not a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER, is he?
Maybe, but not in a "Biden" kinda way. Personally, I think it just got interesting.
In example after example, DC is progressively turning everything in our world upside down, rewriting our dictionary with its own brand of PC.
And if you don't do things their way, more and more they'll come after you and personally turn your world upside down.
Electing republicans hasn't changed anything other than to give obama a Bohner to screw us with.
Trump is more like DC anti-matter, their complete opposite doing everything "wrong" as far as DC PC is concerned, yet successfully right in the competitive, merit-based real world beyond DC and the Ivory Towers.
He doesn't seem to have much trouble saying what's on his mind, either, unlike the lawyerly DC standard model politicians we can't seem to get away from.
Electing him as POTUS would do to progressive DC what progressive DC has been doing to the rest of the country for the last few decades worth of presidents since Reagan.
Yep, I like it! Win or lose, his being there will change the Republican primary and the other candidates will have to adapt to him and what he says.
Especially if what he says resonates with voters who are sick and tired of the same ol' same old.
Right, and get Hillary elected in the process.
Hey, I’m on the fence too, but a shake em up outsider like Trump reminds me of Reagan. Establishment politicians just all go bad.
After Walker and Cruz got behind the Trade deal where do I go? Do I stay home or look for someone else? I am listening Donald..... If he or Sarah go Indy, then I can vote my conscious, it maybe time for me to give this metaphorical salute if the E-GOP has their way...
I don’t know where you go, but I’m sticking with Cruz. He’s still the best conservative candidate we have.
For God’s sake, Trump is a P.T. Barnum shyster. He has admitted that he self-identifies as a DEMOCRAT.
It boggles my mind that so many conservatives would actually fall for his schtick.
Regarding the graphic in your post-—do I take it to mean that you feel jilted by Cruz, so you’re turning to Trump out of spite?
See, that’s what people do when their girlfriends or boyfriends dump them. That’s not how thinking conservatives choose a candidate for president.
I have had enough. So let Ted or Walker prove themselves and walk back from this Boehner-Ryan-Obama mess trade deal. Then if I am not a conservative anymore that is fine too, maybe it is time for me give up my interest in politics and FR, we have been shoveling it against the tide for 6 years and the E-GOP takes a hack-saw to our shovel everyday as well...
How true, how true and one of his kids should gift him a "Thought Organizer" on Father's Day.....................
I welcome Donald to the race. None of his comments so far have been as laughable as “illegal immigration is an act of love” That from the former Gov of Fla. So lets don’t go postal on Donald just yet. :-)
The same Trump that demanded, and got, B Hussein O to produce his phony birth certificate, so we would all know what a fraud he is.
Perhaps people like Trump because he is a self-made man that has not made a career of sponging off the taxpayer. He is also from outside the beltway and not a sniveling lawyer from Kenya.
“Never thought I’d say that - but I found myself agreeing with most everything he said”
That is a comment that you will hear very often. Rush calls it “resonating”. But it is strange, and almost humorous, to see posters on this sight, who probably say the same things around the dinner table, react like a vampire who has seen the sun come up when Trump is mentioned.
BTW, Trump hasn’t filed with the FEC yet, so his campaign isn’t official.
Perfect for a self-aggrandizing bloviator who’s amusing himself with a vanity “run.”
“The old media empire, that mouthpiece for the rat party, will eviscerate Trump on every front. Mark my words.”
They will give it their best, just like they tried with Reagan.
That describes my father-in-law, but it doesn't make him fit for the presidency.
Not from Kenya? That's a low bar you have there. I'll stick with Ted Cruz.
“He’s not a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER, is he?”
Obama was not attacked like this.
“He has admitted that he self-identifies as a DEMOCRAT.”
I doubt he would say that now, but you form your party identification sometimes quite early. Democrats in charge when Trump was young were more conservative than today’s conservatives, especially Republicans such as Boehner and McConnell, etc.
