Trump says presidential campaign is 'bad for my brand'
Business Insider (MSN) ^ | 4 JUL 2015

Posted on 07/04/2015 7:28:17 PM PDT by South40

Donald Trump admitted that his presidential campaign is hurting him financially.

In an interview on Fox on Saturday, the real estate mogul hit back at critics who allege that he's just running for president for publicity, saying that his campaign has damaged his image and his businesses.

"This isn't good for my brand, I think it's bad for my brand," Trump said. "Maybe I'm leading in polls, but this is certainly not good. I lose customers, I lose people."

Still, Trump maintained that his businesses are "very strong," and haven't been too hurt by the bad publicity yet.

Is he flawed? No doubt but he’s no traitor or chump.

Another astute observation.

To NOT be a "traitor" or a "chump" is certainly a step up from most of the front-running candidates, as well as the current elected crop of do nothing representatives of the people.

The PC police are trying.

They score better on individuals....like people who refuse to bake a cake...or issue a license to perverts (that's what they are)....for moral reasons.

Like running for Pres isn’t a freak show already in itself with the media and all? I’m willing to give Trump some slack. He seems a bit more authentic here in his mature years.

I'm sure he has set up his children with magnificent trust funds. They sure are impressive and deserve it.

Notice they don't come running out feeling they have to defend hi, That's class. He's a good teacher.

No such thing as bad publicity.

As a thirty-year professional in that field, I can tell you, that's not so.

I just heard Trump’s interview with JD Hayworth of Newsmax. DT mentioned that our military personnel are horribly treated by this Administration. Right again.

Man...it’s true...there’s one in every crowd.

Tellyawhat, MadMan. Send your portfolio to Trump and point out all his terrible, terrible mistakes, and why if he’d just hire you...all his trubbles would be over with.

Good luck there Mr. Tate.

Well, thank you so much Mittens.

Now take your meds and go back to your room until breakfast time.

Here’s another example of main stream media trying like hell to ruin another person because they don’t like what he has to say...p.c. crap all over the place to please the ‘sissies’ that can’t take the truth...

The Donald wouldn’t be where he is if it was for ‘tough skin’....
