Well, I don't even pretend to know everything there is to know about Donald Trump, but from what I've seen over the past several weeks, I can easily declare that that man is one pretty shrewd guy. "The Donald," as I've heard him referred to by businessmen I know, hasn't amassed a fortune as a builder/developer/real-estate tycoon without knowing precisely how to acquire the land he seeks, how to demolish any existing buildings and how he plans to develop the property into another golden chunk of Trumpland.
Now that we can pretty well assume Mr. Trump is running for president, it's obvious that he has done a prerequisite full survey of Obamaland. He has, as all successful builders are wont to do, gotten the plans of the existing structure and knows precisely which cornerstone and support beams are holding President Obama's house upright. And as any truly great builder would, Trump has carefully, critically, logically listed every risk/benefit ratio of every strategy we now see him publicly employing.
Every time Donald Trump attacks a piece of the Obama narrative to a dumbfounded interviewer, he knows exactly what he is doing. He has considered the risk beforehand and calculated its rewards. He knows the media is most vulnerable because early on in 2008, the collective media declared these Obama truth-searches out of bounds for respectable people, who were obliged (in the media elitists' minds) to give Obama's blackness all benefit of doubt in every instance. For nearly three full years now, the media has held its locked grip on every tidbit of missing or discordant information regarding the Obama narrative and are now shocked -- shocked, I tell you -- that anyone would dare to broach these media-deemed taboo subjects.

This is excellent and everyone should read. Right on the mark.
Nice. Do not expect, however, Trump to discover any new dirt on Obama. He will simply drag out the same tired old tropes that we at FR are so familiar with. The difference is that this time the general public in all its ignorance will have Obama’s deceit and cowardice jammed down their throats. By the time he is finished the public will be vomiting at the very thought of Obama. That is the genius of Trump.
In other words, that picturesque old run down farmhouse is a drug house where numerous murders have occured and countless bodies are buried. We leave it standing in peril of our lives.
Gas nationwide is now at $4.00 or more almost everywhere. Food and other inflation is starting to really take off.
This is going to be be a nasty horrible summer. ALL of TV ioncluding Fox will keep covering for the Kenyan.
After this summer if the public does not “get it” then it is over. Last summer I played golf at a cheap local golf course. It was ghost town last summer. I cannot imagine this summer.
The dollar may just totally crash this summer.
Trump will peel Obama like a banana. Trump is not afraid to say why Obama is so bad in a matter-of-fact way. I’m voting for who ever takes Obama out of office. At this point with the media on Obama’s side Trump seems to be the only one who can look Americans in the eye and mean it when he says Obama stinks.
She spells out why people like Glenn Beck are wrong, about --you can only win 2012 by sticking to policy issues and not addressing Obama's background records.
Trump has calculated that the whole Obama house is resting upon the public's acceptance of that emotional and utterly contrived Obama narrative. And Trump is determined to disabuse America of its sentimental attachment to an Obama presidency.Because, truly, unless that spell can be broken, Obama's house -- crumbling and varmint infested though it may be -- will stand. Yes, that Donald Trump is one smart guy.
The MSM went all in with Obama—Staked everything they had on getting him elected. That’s why they defend him so ferociously.
Your typical milquetoast elected Republican is more afraid of the MSM than their own constituents; as such, they dance to the tune the media calls.
Trump will drag Obama into his New York world which is completely alien to Obama.
Trump's world is one based on common sense and facts and real performance, where a spade is called a spade, and where people are as tough as they are clever, and plain spoken...even blunt.
Obama will not like it there.
I hear that Trump praise senator Chuckie Smukie of NY on Hanity last night. He lost me right there. No Thanks. There are some things that just tell you about the hidden character of a person. And that does it for me. No conservative should support a man praising a pure leftest senator.
You are so right. As much as we would like to believe that Trump could expose obammy, it’s a ruse. He is a spoiler and will split the conservative vote. With him in the picture, I am not optimistic about our chances of defeating the dipstick in 2012.
