Donald Trump has run faux campaigns for president before, flirting with the Democrats and independents. This time, hes playing a conservative Republican. By 2016, hell probably be talking about his affinity for the Alaskan Independence Party or the Whigs.
And, of course, hes suddenly a birther. This guy either has a birth certificate or he doesnt, he said of President Obama. I didnt think this was such a big deal, but, I will tell you, its turning out to be a very big deal because people now are calling me from all over saying: please dont give up on this issue.
It was a perfect vocalization of the New York Street: People are calling me up! Dont believe everything you hear, unless it comes over the phone.
In a potential Republican field that includes Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich, its hard to come up with a line of attack loopy enough to stand out from the pack. But darned if Trump didnt manage to find one....

He’s having a lot of fun and making his fellow NYer’s in the press VERY MAAAAAD.
With a ten foot steel pike, and a twist for good measure.
“In a potential Republican field that includes Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich, its hard to come up with a line of attack loopy enough...”
Aaaaaaaaaahhhhh...the slimes. The New York Slimes. Nobody does it more relentlessly, eh?
Trump sounded great on Savage today. One thing he has is gusto and passion about a topic. It’s almost like we’re so wanting someone to grow a pair and be a vocal conservative - a ‘Damn it, we’re Mad as Hell’ and we’re going to push for this, or that, or repeal this, or that, or cut this, etc. Trump communicated that gusto today. I think the left is threatened by confronting passionate people that speak the truth. Here we come!
Trump is not an ally of the TEA Party.
Her argument might be summed up as, "Trump is loopy. Why? Because I say so, and I represent the Mighty New York Times! Now, don't argue with me, or I'll call you loopy, too!"

It gets curiouser and curiouser.
Beck trashed Trump today on his radio show too along with his sidekick who called him -- I believe he said Trump got "Idiotic."
Now, I see more idiocy coming from certain talking heads than I do with Trump. See Twiddledee and Twiddledum twins for a clue.
Who said he was?
“Beck trashed Trump tonight on OReilly.
It gets curiouser and curiouser. “
Any of those individuals pictured, even Mayor Giuliani and Mr. Trump, would be at least 10X better than the current de facto president on his best day. Of course so would you or I.
I was so happy when Gail Collins moved from the Daily News to the NY Times so I didn’t have to accidentally glance at her drivel.
So I guess when I’m applying for a mortgage or a drivers license or federal financial aid to go to college I DON’T have to give any proof that I’m not scamming the government.
Unless I’m an illegal alien.
NY Mag press are horses asses.
Beck called Trump a “Showboat”.
Beck fails to see he’s a Carnival Cruiseliner.
Still think he is playing a game. Looking to pull a Perot against whomever the GOP candidate will be.
Yeh kind of a personal attack without any substance. The obligatory attempt to cover for Barry no matter what.
