Nah, it's nothing more than Donald Trump self-promoting Donald Trump. He does make a great stalking horse for the birther movement, however.

From the article:

Mostly, I’m a Romney man. But in a back-alley brawl, I want Trump.

Where's the barf alert?

At least Donald has a backbone, a big pair of brass ones, and he can verbally joust with and beat the MSM talking heads.

Who else do we have with those qualities?

From a purely practical point of view, Trump is going to have to start talking issues if he wants to be a serious candidate. He can’t just talk about the birth certificate.

You ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Just wait until The Donald goes mainstream on the fact that multiple SSNs are associated with BHO II as well as the fraudulent Selective Service Application. The Obots will have blood shooting out of their eyes!

The NBC Today Show, with David Gregory joining Meredith today, did an “investigative report” about some of The Donald’s comments on their show yesterday. So now we can expect the Today Show to do daily investigative reports on everything Obama tells us. Right?

I like the way Trump is mocking Obama and the Dems, but I am not fired up about his running for President.

Strip away the birth certificate and Trump really has nothing. No intelligent solutions. No real proposals. Nothing but self-publicizing pap.

As kooky as it sounds, as improbable as the whole thing seems, I’m fired up about Donald Trump.

If Donald runs I'm voting for him! Period. I'm sick to death of the political class in the country....with very few exceptions I hate them all and wish a pox on them! They're more interested in protecting their perks, power and priveleges than they are in the welfare of this country and I've had it!

We know him, we respect him, we like him.

Ahem....yes, we know him and his record - therefore we hardly 'respect' him and his numerous bankruptcies; and we sure as hell don't "like" him.....nothing worse than an unwarranted ego run totally amok.

I find the “self promoting” reasoning, silly. He doesn't need any more “self promoting”. He's already famous, already a billionaire.

I also find the shilling for Hillary reasoning, silly. Donald's world is New York. Hillary was a very famous NY Senator. She was very likely going to be President of the United States. If you were a major NY based international business man would you donate to Hillary's campaign? Would you support her? This was strictly business. It would have been no different if Hillary were a Republican.

Trump is for real, he IS running, and he can win both the primary and the general. I like The Donald, I always have. I never really considered him for president, but desperate times require desperate measures.

"We know him, we respect him, we like him."

speak for yourself. first of all the guy is NOT a conservative, secondly do you know how he made his fortune? he bought apartment houses, and forced them to change into condos. he got his money back (Plus a hefty profit), but the poor people living in them had something like 30 days to buy the condo or get out. THAT's what he thinks of us.

finally his "they don't look like indians to me" comment shows bigotry, and a lack of tact.

the donald needs to quit the republicans, and you need to quit saturating us with this junk

“Mostly, I’m a Romney man. But in a back-alley brawl, I want Trump”.
**************

How can a person be for both these guys? They are polar opposites, Trump has a “set of brass ones” while Romney has none.

Stilton Jarlsberg at his brilliant hopenchangecartoons.blogspot.com says it better than I could hope to:

Conservatives who still haven't removed the clothespins from their noses after being forced to vote for John McCain are now falling into states of catatonic depression over the prospect of Donald Trump running for the Republican presidential nomination.

Trump, an occasional billionaire and fulltime reality TV star, believes himself to be qualified for the job of president owing to the fact that he has an actual birth certificate and a distinctive hairstyle which, while looking absolutely ridiculous, is at least more convincing than Barack Obama's alleged christianity.

All of which makes Hope n' Change feel nostalgic for the old days in which candidates had things like political experience, knowledge, integrity, a history of public service, and the seriousness of purpose to realize that becoming President of the United States carries much more responsibility than winning "American Idol."

The Presidency must be more than a popularity contest, and must be somehow separated from America's increasingly sophomoric obsession with celebrity (not to mention the public's inability to differentiate between celebrity, infamy, and notoriety - Charlie Sheen for VP, anyone?).

The mere possibility of another presidential election with no worthy contender on either side is enough to make our hair stand on end.

And no comb-over can hide it.
