Potential 2012 presidential candidate Donald Trump took a departure from his sideshow topics Wednesday to tout his past remarks on Osama bin Laden, weigh in on the budget negotiations and assess his chances of moving into the White House.
During his second trip to the early presidential contest state of New Hampshire, the famously confident Trump said he appeared on television "a few weeks ago" saying bin Laden was in Pakistan but that "nobody else picked it up."
"You tell them (Pakistan) we're not giving you any money unless you hand over to us Osama bin Laden and everybody looked at me like eh, nobody else picked it up," Trump told a crowd at the Chamber of Commerce Nashua Expo. ... "We have tremendous potential, tremendous, unbelievable potential if we had the right people, if we knew what we were doing," Trump said.

Bump for later.
Haven’t heard much from trump since obama’s UBL assassination....
Maybe the fourth estate has been instructed to give him the 2008 Ron Paul treatment, huh!
“I don’t know, maybe I am not a nice guy... if you want a nice guy, look at somebody else.... But I will tell you one thing: I will make this country great again.” No wonder the slings and arrows are out for Trump.

One thing about Donald Trump is he is very probably vindictive. (I was told by my mom not to ever marry a rich man because they didn’t get rich by being nice..ha!) The Donald was REALLY ticked at that White House Correspondents Dinner and I believe he is planning his revenge....and I love the thought of it!
I hope he runs—he will be great in the debates even if he is knocked out in the early primaries. I only wish he had his own Newspaper chain! We don’t need a Mr. Nice Guy as POTUS —We had one with Jimmy Carter and that didn’t work out well. We need a right Bast**d —to do the things needed to make America Respected in the world. At very least we need people in the GOP who are willing to bring up the important topics rather than the side topics. Same can be said for Newt G. and to a lesser degree Sarah P. Look to see some important things happening in the next few weeks.
Right on.
Trump is a very good influence. To all his detractors, tell whoever you support to get off their duff and mix it up with Trump - to go after Obama.
Simple.

You mean the REALLY IMPORTANT topics like global warming?
Someone to shake the Marxists and globalists out of the State Department. Who doesn't let Political correctness trump common sense and security. Someone who protects our sovereignty. Someone who respects your money.
I want to see Trump run just for the ghetto beatdown he will give Barry everyday. LOL!
I look forward to the day when I don’t find a single new Trump thread in which to insert “comboverboy” as a search term.
This demagogic, thrice married, foul mouthed, crony capitalist, fake conservative can’t drop off the political radar nearly fast enough to suit me.
I’m not done with Trump yet, he just had a bad couple weeks. He is intelligent and a force to be reckoned with in politics.
Steve Malzberg interviewed "The Donald" on his radio program the other day. He couldn't get Trump to say anything negative about Obama. He refused to comment about the killing of Osama bin Laden at all. Now he's trying to claim he came up with the OBL-is-in-Pakistan thing? He's a lying jerk.
Did "conservatives" who say they'd vote for him hear what he said on his Celebrity Apprentice show last Sunday? He's no conservative, people. I imagine he has Rahm Emanuel on speed dial.
