I wondered if he was Peroting it too in the beginning.

Upon looking at the smouldering ruins of many bridges in his wake the only logical conclusion I can draw is that he is in fact sincere.

At the rate things are going here, if left unchecked DT could stand to lose everything.

Any American with property, a nest egg or asset of any sort is in serious jeopardy.

If he’s only running because he wants to preserve his empire then why not?

It will benefit all Americans to reverse the direction our country is going.

We will lose everything including our nation if it isn’t stopped.

We’ve tried maintaining the status quo.

It’s not working.

America is bleeding.

Someone needs to stop the bleeding and end the looting from both sides.

I tend to agree. In fact, I would go so far as to say that whatever Trumps original reason for throwing his hat in the ring was no longer matters. This now comes down to who has more power, the power brokers or the people. We the people have one last chance to assert ourselves. Trump has his own money. We have the power of the vote. Trump can't be bought. We the people have the power to put the bull in the china shop. I say we do it. I say we the people use him to get back into DC, whether he decides to drop out or not. That is, unless we aren't sick of the same old same old. We don't have any money. We haven't had any power to put anyone in any position of power, that can't be bought, or who isn't already owned, in a long time. Now, and maybe for the last time, we do.

Somebody has been buying the office of the Presidency for a long time. Homegrown or not I have no idea. Probably some "global" faction. I see a candidate now who seems to be of, by and for the USA. I know he isn't the perfect conservative. But he is the opposite of "the lesser evil". He isn't second up from the bottom, he is one down from the top (Cruz).
