Legendary actor-comedian Bill Cosby said that Donald Trump is “full of it” when it comes to his potential bid for the White House, telling TODAY’s Meredith Vieira Thursday that Trump should “run or shut up.”
Cosby was passionately talking about his work helping to further education in downtrodden urban neighborhoods, but he worked himself into a lather when Vieira asked him about Trump, who appeared in an earlier show segment.
Vieira mentioned her lengthy, pretaped interview with the business mogul in which he talked about the possibility of his running for president in 2012. Funnyman Cosby grimaced and said, “Oh, please, with Donald Trump, take him home with you!”
“Why do you say that?” Vieira asked. Cosby responded, “Because he’s full of it,” then sat silent with a chagrined look on his face for several seconds.
While Vieira pressed him on what prompted his attitude toward Trump, Cosby said that he is tired of Trump’s “will he or won't he?” waffling about throwing his hat in the ring for the nation’s highest office. “You run or shut up,” Cosby said.
Trump has said that he is waiting until the end of his show, “The Celebrity Apprentice,” before he makes an official announcement about running. To abide by election law, if Trump were to make a formal move toward running for office, NBC would have to end his show.
Vieira pointed this out and noted that none of the contenders expected to run against President Barack Obama has officially announced. Cosby responded, “You can run. Please, anybody can run,” then compared Trump to Pat Paulsen, the comedian who announced his 1972 bid for presidency on “The Smothers Brothers” comedy-variety show.....

Ever wait on tables?
It’s always been that way with Cosby. One of the biggest racists there ever was.
Wowsers!
Who’s Bill Cosby?....
Works for me!
