Great on business, but horrendous on other issues. He’s a big backer of government-run health care.
No, thanks.
If you look at Trump’s bio, his business seems to be bankruptcy. In between bankrupticies he builds a few buildings and appears on TV. That said, I would think someone with as much experience in bankruptcy as Trump would be a good fit for America right now.
Trump has at least been successful in something. To be honest, there are very, very few politicians on either side of the aisle that appear to have any particular talent for anything other than self-promotion.
If trump can beat obama - i will support him 100%.
Anybody but Obama - ANYONE!

Great on business. When he’s on the verge of bankruptcy he demands the banks rewrite their loan agreements.
He thinks it would right to simply seize all the oil fields in the middle east.
He bashes China for buying our bonds. Did we hold a gun to their heads? Did they hold a gun to our heads?
Lots of talk talk talk, no brains. JMO
Trumps qualifications to be President are as real as that badger he wears on his head.
If you actually look at his bio, he’s successful and going bankrupt, re-marrying, and self-promotion.
That’s the kind of thinking that gave is Juan McLame.
We need to set our sights a bit higher.
Great with his father's money, not even.
I saw an interview with him on FOX. I hate to admit this, but I agreed with an awful lot of what he said.
I'm not beating the drums for him, but I stand by my statement about politicians of all stripes. I think the old adage ‘Those who can, do, and those who can't, teach’ is erroneous. I think it's much more apt to say that ‘Those who can, do, and those who can't go into politics where they can feed their narcissistic need without actually having any particular talent.’. Just my humble opinion.
This is ridiculous.
People have only seen him in Trump controlled environments. Who knows how he would actually do in a debate with other candidates where he would have to think on his feet and not have sychophants fawning over him. He has some very good business acumen but from what I see peripherally, he is not very good on the social side.
Like who? We have less than two years - give me a name, way they can win, and realistic scenario thy beat ZERO.
BTW - in 2008 - we had the same lame bunch of choices overall.
At this point - i would vote for Madoff/Vandersloot 2012 over obama.
Anyone staying home in 2012 because their 100% candidate is not on the ballot is JUST AS BAD AS THE OBAMABOT showing up to the polls to vote for 4 more years. sorry, i have about had it with the 100% club at this point.
I’ll pass... thank you
Are you kidding? He probably would sen obama home crying. Do you think he got to where he is by reading teleprmpters and being told what to say?
Trump’s pattern of eminent domain abuse shows he has no respect for private property rights.

Trump as POTUS? He’ll never get my vote... that is for sure.
That's OK, he's campaigning. He's not likely to say anything that the people he's targeting - us - are likely to disagree with. But his history is very liberal. Personally I don't trust him or (almost) anybody that has such close ties to hollywood and TV show production, not to mention his donations to the democrats he's made. The Donald is a RINO at BEST!
