Who’s next on Donald’s hit list? Everyone wants to know. Donald Trump is like the old EF Hutton commercial- when he speaks, everyone listens. Brilliant.
I wrote the book on “Celebrity Branding.” It’s called “The Power of RELENTLESS.” The only presidential candidate who understands the importance of celebrity branding to politics is Donald Trump. He is in a word- RELENTLESS. He relentlessly brands himself 24/7. He relentlessly attacks 24/7. He relentlessly sells 24/7. He relentlessly pitches 24/7. And he does it all with RELENTLESS chutzpah. Brilliant. Trump is well on his way to becoming president of this country.
Like it or not, the reality is America is no longer U-S-A. We are T-M-Z. We are a nation that idolizes celebrity. We’re one big reality show. That’s how Obama got elected- twice. He was elected as “American Idol.” Obama was famous and exciting. That’s what people want in a candidate.
Donald Trump is the “American Idol” of the GOP.
This is all part of a plan. Pick a fight with a media elephant, create controversy, create headlines, get people talking and tweeting. Pick a fight with Univision and NBC. Pick a fight with Rosie O’Donnell. Pick a fight with Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). Pick a fight with Megyn Kelly. Pick a fight with Hilly, Huma and Anthony Weiner. Trump makes headlines by picking fights with celebrities and saying the very things we all whisper about at the water cooler (but would never dare say out loud), thereby making himself more famous every day. Controversy sells. Trump and his fights are all we talk about. Brilliant.
Trump gets it. The other candidates don’t.

AMEN!!! and he keeps whining and whining until he gets what he wants, he doesn’t get it, he buys it....
GO Trump/Cruz 2016!!!
Speaking of which - Trump will be on Jimmy Fallon’s show on September 11th.
Yep. :-)
LOL.
No, everybody watches. There's a difference. There's a lot to see but so far very little of substance worth listening to.
Great contrasts which more clearly align Washington politics as practiced on the populus in full clear display. Even the media can't put lipstick on all those pigs Trump is pulling out of the barn.
There is Trump
There is Cruz
and there are 15 buckets of warm spit
If any candidate whether it’s Walker, Rubio, etc had come out with strong ideas like Trump he / she too would be in the lead. It’s not that it’s Trump that’s attractive to people it’s his passion, his ideas, his candor. The people want a leader that’s going to undue these runaway last 2 terms of that booger in the White House.
Nah, it's because I worship Trump, I'm ignorant, and I'm gullible.
Heck, I've even started writing cancelled checks to democrats ;)
So the man is found to be ‘outrageous’ Perhaps this is good, the more ‘outrageous’ he might be -the more he endears himself to the common man who daily beats his head against the wall attempting to get just get by in life, asking for nothing and receiving everything he asks for. TRUMP is a sign of the times, a man who doesn’t seem to care for any individual who might stand in the way as he attempts his journey to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. That we allowed our beloved country to dissolve so swiftly once corrosion began we might also look within our selves and find answers as to how we might help accomplish this on an individual basis. GOAL: MAKR AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!
People that constantly moan about Trump should be hounding their prefered choice to start sounding more like him.
Nah! Just post whiny articles all day on FR. Much easier!
Disagree. Trump had many good points but the combination of his bluntness and his celebrity status is what started the roll he’s on. Now, everyone’s just waiting to see what he’ll say next. Will he go after Hillary? Jeb? Biden? Sanders? We eagerly await it.
Haven’t heard anything I’ve disagreed with yet.
“There’s a lot to see but so far very little of substance worth listening to”
Read his 15 books. You want substance, you’ll get substance. Just make the effort rather than grousing about the alleged lack of it.
It's enough that you troll every Trump thread
We don't have to put up with your screaming.
Giving the entire Nation away to foreigners for nothing is far worse.
Sad, maybe. Necessary, absolutely.
