Trump: Obama Re-election Will Lead to Second Crash
Newsmax ^ | 05/11/11 | Jim Meyers

Posted on 05/12/2011 9:17:16 AM PDT by pgkdan

Billionaire and potential presidential candidate Trump told a business gathering in New Hampshire that the 2012 presidential election will decide the economic fate of America and vows that if he runs and wins “this country will be great again.”

In an address carried live by Newsmax via streaming video on Wednesday, Trump warned that the re-election of President Obama would lead to a huge increase in taxes, called for an end to Obamacare, and said high oil prices will lead to a “second crash."

I know this drives the Palin stalwarts crazy to hear it but alot of what The Donald says makes sense. I think we should really hear him out and I'm glad to see that he's in NH and still putting himself out there after the birth certificate release.

I have no problem with Trump stating these things. The problem that I have with Trump is that he used the power of the government thru eminent domain to try and steal property from a person to build one of his casinos. This shows he isn't a conservative and is in fact an enemy of the “little” guy.

It would be good to see a forceful spokesman such as Trump in debates with Obama, if he got the nomination.

Obama needs to be challenged on his ideology and his record. In this election, rather than talking about hope and change, and talking of stopping the rise of the oceans and all that, Obama will have a four year track record, which he needs to be forced to defend.

I hope the American people have a sharp clear choice in 2012, with Obama against a strong conservative candidate, a candidate who can articulate the issues and the sharp differences between conservative principles and four more years of Obamanation.

He’s a snake oil salesman and now he’s just stating the obvious.

This guy was bad after he was elected, could you imagine the ego and hubris if he wins re-election this time around?

I have no problem with what the Donald says as long as everyone here realizes that he is a Capitalist Democrat (an endangered species to be sure) and not a Capitalist Republican as he is trying to sell himself as of late.

His capitalist instincts would be good for business, but I am wary of when the Democrat would surface and bite us in the hindquarters - if Obummer leaves us any to be bitten that is.

The problem is that too many establishment Republicans aren’t really capitalists anymore. They’re every bit the statist control freaks that the ‘rats are.

Exactly right.

Look back to the 08 election.

The more it became obvious a Marxist would be elected president, the worse the economy got.

If Obama wins a second term, a second crash will be the least of our problems.

“I’m very anti-establishment, that even includes the Republicans.

“Republicans don’t like it because I’m not in the club. That club is not what is going to make us in my opinion a great country again.”
____________________

I wonder how true these statements are, or if he’s just saying them because they sound so good to so many people??

I have to admit, I may not agree with him on social issues, but on the economy, oil, foreign policy and Obama, he is 100% spot on. AND, he’s taking it to Obama AND the MSM and not being PC about it, either. He is a no nonsense straight talker and if , just if, he actually means what he is saying, and will DO what he is saying....we NEED that SOOOO much.

But, I too, am very cynical. For many years, it’s been a lot of contradictive action to what’s been said. We can’t take that anymore.
