I'd vote for Trump with no problem. People run unopposed all the time. He actually has the right idea. Don't waste the money.

Cuomo ran unopposed.

In other news, Trump tells Democrats he'll serve as governor if we skip elections.

Say, let's appoint the fool CHANCELLOR and get it over with.

Isn’t it time for him to go back to being a Republican?

Why didn’t Trump just run for NYC Mayor? Nobody’s going to vote for him outside NYC if he runs for Governor, especially up-staters who hate the city.

Mr. Trump again shows his incredible chutzpah and air of self importance that elevated him to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame last year.

At least he is being true to who he is.

No primary and David Dewhurst would be the junior senator from Texas.

Donald is 400% better than that Nazi prick Cuomo. That SOB Cuomo is sending out goons to confiscate weapons.

So, just let the party elites appoint someone. Saves time. Saves money. Saves injuries from voting machines.

Hey, if that is such a good idea for governorships, why not for presidents, too. And senators. And representatives.

Just let the party elites run things. They would like that. Why even bother with elections at all? Party elites from all parties could just put their selectees' names in a hat, draw one out, and that one gets the position.

George Washington ran unopposed

It's not uncommon...We're talking a party running a candidate. Happens all the time for various offices.

Bump!

Politicians need the pomp to deceive voters plus they have the time for it. Business men don’t have that time.

Go Trump - knock Cuomo off his game of using NY as his ladder to the WH. He’s so smug, he’s repulsive.

Crapola- I can’t imagine what he would do but it would be fun and interesting to watch and see what he would do and SHOW what CAN be done while putting those liberals to shame.

I think he’d make NY a company/business paradise and that brings workers and boosts the economy for NY.

That should be said of obama ALONE. Not a hard working proven successful NY'er who is a legal citizen who has afforded jobs to many.

Notice the ‘know nothings’ are trashing a hard working successful NY’er and get blind when it comes to the freedom sucking ways of a liberal; namely Cuomo.

We're trashing his desire to gain political office without having to work for it.
