Yeah, and what? This is evidence of some big conspiracy, some kind of duplicity on Trump’s part?

To me, it looks like he decided to run for President right then and there, and acted on his decision, the way actual executives do.

6 days.

Curious.

The media started pontificating on the 2016 election 5 minutes after the 2012 election was called for Obama.

Trump plans ahead. Rubio liquidated a $68,000 IRA last year — paying $23,000 in penalties — just 2 years after receiving a $1 million book advance. I cannot believe there are 12-16% of Republicans who actually trust that idiot to lead the nation (and a $2 trillion budget).

Ripping Off.

Anyone outside of the 70's and 80's even know what that means ?

Perhaps he needed a brake job on one of his fancy cars. You know those DC types don't drive around Honda Pilots and Toyota 4Runners.

So Trump paid $100k to st Jude’s to get the trademark. That’s cool. Good for Bobby Estell and Trump.

As a side note to this thread, please consider the following.

When GWB ”stole” the election from Al Gore, both candidates fought the election results to the Supreme Court.

On the other hand, regardless of allegations of ballot box stuffing by Democrats when Romney lost to Obama, Romney was too quick to concede the race to Obama imo, as if he was following a script made by the Washington cartel. So I am glad that Trump sensed that something was not right about that election and trademarked his campaign slogan at that time.

Insights welcome.

I googled presidential campaign slogans.

John Kennedy - A time for greatness

Ronald Reagan - It’s morning in American again

Donald Trump - Make America great again

I don’t really see how Trump ripped off Reagan.

St Jude’s hospital is my favorite charity. I think God for the good health of my children.

“So What?”

Agreed, he thinks ahead. May I add that contrary to MSM and establishment beliefs, his bid is not some joke or idle whim they think it is. It’s been planned for some time.

He’s in it for the long haul.

His odds on winning increase with each passing day.
