Also, he is thinking of changing his name to Donald T. Rump.

[writer33]

For those interested ping!

[mulligan]

All thinking and intelligent people should leave the GOP.

[Servant of the Cross]

Yea, that’s a real winning strategy. /s

[GeronL]

So... how many months was he a Republican?? 10?

[Farmer Dean]

Trump’s a loudmouth egomaniac.Actually not too much different from what’s in the White House now.

[writer33]

Not this 3rd party crap again. Donald. You’re fired!

[Tex-Con-Man]

“Couple Donald Trump’s name recognition with his extraordinary wealth and Americans Elect truly becomes a viable force in determining who the next president will be,”

What other vote splitting, democrat electing kook billionaire does that sound like?

[writer33]

Yeah, it was something like 10 months.

[fantom]

How about a Buffoon alert.

[upsdriver]

I don’t blame him.

[Sprite518]

Tea Party Ticket....

Trump/Cain 2012

[writer33]

Agreed.

[AnAmericanAbroad]

So, if Trump runs as an independent (self-financed, I would imagine), I think his schtick will be to appeal to the “birther” crowd.

Then if Ron Paul goes indy 3rd Party as well, that’ll peel off some of the Libertarians.

Yep..........hello second term for President Obama. Looks like we have another 4 years of taxpayer-funded Hawaiian vacations and globetrotting with Air Force One to look forward to.

[C. Edmund Wright]

Here’s betting that about 20% of the FR respondents will support Trump and that 100% of what they say will be macho emotion and 0% of what they say will make any sense or have any logic.

Trump’s top political adviser Michael Cohen told ABC News. “One thing is for certain, Donald Trump is adamant that Barack Obama must be defeated in 2012 under any circumstances.”

And how do you propose to do that by splitting the anti-Obama vote?? His ego is overruling his reason.

[Tex-Con-Man]

All thinking and intelligent people should leave the GOP.

And vote a third party until the GOP reforms into a more conservative party...HEY!!!!...we could even call it the Reform Party! Waddugrate idea!

[GeronL]

He was a trojan horse fraud from the start

[Sprite518]

It’s the Republican Party fault. If they had a spine, then this would not be happening. If they were more concerned with what their voters thought, than the media and press this would not be happening.
