You just keep on thinking that. Please make your way to the egress. The ash bin of history awaits your paradigm and your party.

He’s having the time of his life, isn’t he? I noticed that he is using his old helicopter for the free rides. That makes sense, as his newer one is outfitted in 24K gold and he wouldn’t want that messed up. Back to my point - Trump is 69 years old. He has spent the majority of his life building businesses, making deals and I think he realizes he is now immortal and wants to give back to this country. I think he also wants to make sure his children and grandchildren have a future long after he is gone. He is out seeing the country and its citizens he has never had time to do. He has also hobnobbed with the rich and famous, celebrities and business people. He is seeing the other side of America - the fly over country, with its county fairs and every day average citizen.

I counted about 5 guys around him who I assume are his body guards, and I also think he is wearing a bullet-proof vest from the way he walks. Not sure, but it looks like it.

Well said, Catsrus. People can and sometimes do change over time. They may look back on their lives and want to set things right, or realize that they have made few contributions despite how blessed they have been.

Trump may be one of those people. I hope so.

And good on him!

Other candidates could learn a lot from what Trump obviously understands.

He is close to his roots both Scot and German. Good solid work ethic. His is the true American dream from penniless German immigrant (who told people he was Swedish because of he antigerman atmosphere) to mega billionaire. American Dream on Steroids
