Anyone remember this guy?
Trump is an opportunist, anti-2nd Amendment potential Fascist. Seriously. He has used the power of the state (eminent domain) to claim the property of others’ in order to build his empire. Screw him.
Seems like all his companies go bankrupt. He's probably the perfect man for the times.
If Trump were elected it would be the national version of Jesse Ventura’s election as Governor of Minnesota. It didn’t work there and it won’t work here. Yes, sometimes the idea of a character who might fit into the WWF might seem like brilliance, particularly late at night with your drinking buddies. But in the real world, a President should have some credentials as a leader. And maybe some political philosophy to guide his thinking would be good. Sure, the Donald would have the most fabulous decorators doing the White House. And his parties would be spectacular. First class. Super. Fabulous.
But the price, our country would be led by a goof with no understanding of the country, our position in the world, the proper use of the military, the Constitution, free markets, etc.
Look at his voting and political contribution record. Enough said.
I lost a LOT of confidence in Palin when she referred to this issue as a “distraction”.
It’s one thing to strategically stay under the wire on it,
but for her to come out and alienate that much of her base, while demonstrating that she has been duped like so many others suggests to me she simply doesn’t have what it takes.
I think our next president needs to have a real pair of steel grade balls to effectively deal with the problems we’ll face thanks to Obama and pals... otherwise we can expect another one just like him in 2016.
If Trump wants to be a real man then let him use his media spotlight to challenge the media as to what Obama’s real legal name is.
Forget being a birther for a minute and become a namer.
It is a known fact that Obama went to school registered as an Indonesian citizen named Barry Soetoro.
Have the DNC, the left-wing media, and the Obama administration publically explain this all before the 2012 election. Was Obama adopted? Was his name and citizenship status changed? Did he ever legally change his name back to Obama or just do it on his own illegally? Why has he used false social security numbers?
If Trump is man he will show the video of Chuck Shumer demanding that McCain relaese all of his past records if he wants to run for President and demand now that Obama do what his own party has demanded and come clean as to his past.
Trump would be a hero if he would for real demand that ALL of these questions be answered.
The more the merrier. He brings a whole new dynamic to the birther issue.
Pray for America
Palin for President
Trump for Vice President
PERIOD They would win, both are true Patriots and Love this Country.
Palin for President all the way.
I’ve never been a big fan of his before, but he’s taking a stand right now when almost no one else is.
I’m on Team ‘Anyone-Opposing-0bama” and will vote for whoever the candidate is that’s running against him in the general election.
I’m not a Republican so I don’t get to vote in my state’s primary.
I like what this guy is saying, especially on the birther issue, but I don’t think I would trust him as POTUS. Of course, if he’s our nominee, there is no choice but to vote for him.
He has financially supported lots of Dems and RINOs, including Rahm Emmanuel. His excuse for supporting Rahm is that Rahm’s brother Ari is his agent and there is no chance of a Repub being elected mayor of Chicago anyway.
Trump was also very critical of the Bush and the Iraq war. I remember a particular appearance he made of Larry King in I think 2008 or 2009 when he showed complete ignorance of the fact that the “surge” had succeeded in Iraq. He insisted that as soon as the troops were pulled, the country would go into civil war. Of course, King never set him straight on it, cause he was ignorant about the success of the strategy too.
At that time, Trump was not even thinking about running for POTUS, but I remember thinking that if this guy is so willing to shoot his mouth off about a subject he was so ignorant about, he would not make a very good leader. To this day, I don’t know where he stands on Iraq, but hopefully he’s been informed by now that the country has been stabilized.
As I said, I don’t think I could ever trust this guy. I think he would govern very much like Jesse Ventura, and if he did that while wearing the GOP label, it could ruin our brand for years.
He's just having fun throwing hand grenades at Barry, just to see what might crawl out from under the rocks.
I don't see one republican candidate with the guts that Trump has, they are all sitting in a corner waiting for orders from the GOP!
Me too.
Trump may be all over the place, but I find it hard not to like the guy.
Drudge’s headline has The Donald as #2 in polling.

That would be quite a change, wouldn't it? LOL
