If you wonder whether Donald Trump is serious about running for president, tune in to the finale of The Celebrity Apprentice on May 15.
Trump plans to say on the NBC show that he will be holding a press conference in the next few days. At that press conference in the Trump Tower in New York, Trump will be announcing his candidacy for the presidency.
Even then, many will snicker that its all a publicity stunt. But that defies the facts and common sense.
Of all the people on the planet, Donald Trump is the last person who needs more publicity. And if he is riding a groundswell of support, why would heor anyone elsedecide not to run?
Since writing the first story in January to report that Trump will definitely run, I have been amazed at how much the idea of a Trump presidency is catching on across the political spectrum. As I wrote in my story, Dont Underestimate Donald Trump for President, he can be outrageous and boastful. But when it comes to a successful run at the presidency, dont count him out.

Romney is ‘bashing’ Trump about asking for Obama’s BC
Well Romney may be in the same boat as Obama..... I’m not sure his father George was ever officially a legal citizen of the USA.
Romney’s father was nicknamed Chihuahua George because he was born in a Morman colony in Chihuahua, Mexico....... Does not say weather he was a Citizen of US when Mitt was born????
Romney’s his father George did have a problem when he tried to Run for President in 1968 against Nixon I think!
That’s when he was nicknamed “Chihuahua George” because he was born in Mexico!!
Sounded like the family lived a long time in the Mormon Community in Mexico to get away from US because Polygamy was not accepted in US .....Did they give up US Citizenship & when did the Grandfather repatriate?
His grandfather & his many wives abandoned the US because they did not accept Polygamy!! To me this says: we don’t agree with the USA; so, we left..... How do you just walk back over the Border with children born in Mexico??
Romney’s parents were Gaskell Romney (18711955), who was not polygamous, and Anna Amelia Pratt; they married in “1895” in Mexico. George Wilcken Romney was thus born in Colonia Dublán, Galeana, in the Mexican state of Chihuahua one of the Mormon colonies in Mexico on July 8, 1907, to American parents.[1][6] George had three older brothers and would gain two more brothers and a sister.[7] Gaskell Romney was a successful carpenter, house builder, and farmer who headed the most prosperous family in the colony
The Mexican Revolution broke out in 1910 and the Mormon colonies were endangered in 19111912 by raids from marauders,[10] including “Red Flaggers” Pascual Orozco and José Inés Salazar.[11] Young George heard the sound of distant gunfire and saw rebels walking through the village streets.[11][12] The “Romney family fled and returned to the United States in July 1912”, leaving their home and almost all of their property behind.
George’s parents were married in 1895 in Mexico & did not return to USA until 1912......How do you just walk back into the USA with children after living in Mexico for at least 17 + years??? Do you just say I am an American!!
This is very fish to me!!
So you think this two sides of the same coin system works just fine , huh ?
Anybody read Trump’s book?
I heard on a radio show that he believes in single payer health insurance (just like Obama) and wants to tax wealth, not income but WEALTH.
Maybe we can get his book at the library to find out what this is all about, cuz I won’t recommend buying his book.
I agree with him. We should tax wealth not income. I have always thought that.
Tax “Wealth?” Hmmmm....that means the likes of Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, etc would not be able to hide behind their tax accountants and tax attorneys....they don’t show much income....which is how things are taxed now....which is why the Middle class is paying a lot more of their income in taxes while the “wealthy” don’t....not that I want them taxed more....but, some honesty in what’s going on would be good.
He could win the nomination because the field is so incredibly weak. He may ruin Romney’s chances; so that alone would be useful. None of the other contenders have any apparent backbone on much of anything. Backbone could be the sleeper issue for 2012.
It's true.
If the so called "responsible", mainstream politicians and journalists in this nation had done their job, Trump would not have to do this dirty work.
Hey tell me. Did you see this video?
I’m not sure how real it is but if it’s real it’s devastating to Obama.
I’m a TEA Party Republican like Sarah Palin, and NOT on Trunp’s band wagon.
Notice that nobody except RINOS have formally announced.
SHEESH!
Oh great... Here we go again with another Perot-style spoiler... We’ll end up with the O-Hole for another four years.
Do you also agree with single payer health insurance?
“One thing to always worry about Trump, regardless of what you think of his policy ideas, is that he has stated if he runs and fails to get the Republican nomination that he might run as an independent. If he has any brain at all he knows how that turns out. So, whose side is he on?”
excerpt http://www.lucianne.com/thread/?artnum=607493
Yeah, whose side IS he on, or is he a Trojan Horse.
SO President Trump, this is how you do it.... 3.7 TRILLION BUDGET. RAISE TAXES 400B. CUT 19% ACROSS-THE-BOARD = 700B. REVENUE IS 2.6 PLUS 1.1T(400B + 700B) =3.7T = BALANCED BUDGET IN 2012..... Do it NOW. Hell, the GOP Ryan plan balances in 2040. ..Rand Paul’s plan takes till 2015...Hell No!....BALANCE IT NOW. I just told you how. oh and make sure you tell odumbi......He’s fired.
“Notice that nobody except RINOS have formally announced.”
Or SPOILERS, like Trump might be.
I first smelled a RAT when Trump said he would run as a 3rd-partty candidate (not that I ever supported him before).
Boy ain’t that the truth! Thanks for pointing that out.
I’m almost starting to think this web site has a bunch a government hacks on here pretending their conservative in order to keep the majority of us divided??? I hear absolute venom and hate for Trump going after Obama on the birth issue (just like the radical Leftist in the media nd press....hmmmmm????).
Like I wrote earlier candidates I do not support for president, say Newt, I still support them when he goes after Obama. I never attack a fellow Republican when he is going after Obama. That ALONE should raise immediate suspicion on who we are dealing with. All you have to do is look at their previous posts a few pages deep to get an idea of who this so called conservative...
One more thing to remember when you are on top, like Trump, then everyone is shooting for you. I’m just surprised how many so called conservatives are mad at Trump for pointing out the obvious about Obama’s birth!??
Trump/Bachmann 2012
“...He flipped flopped so hard, he made Romney look stationary.”
Can I purchase the rights to that line? LOL
He certainly the top guy to beat and the most appealing to the voters.
Love the passion and agree 100%
Ronald Reagan promised to rid us of the DOE, and yet it lives. Wake up this nut will either reelect Obama, or put Hillary in his stead.
When you can count the Patriots that serve in congress on one hand, the party is over for this Republic.
