One can only guess that the chapter on closing the deal was pretty skimpy in The Art of the Deal if it was in there at all.

OMG, donate money to Donald Trump! LOL. Recommend folk read Eric Hoffer’s TRUE BELIEVER if they start to think about giving Trump money.

Something like that age, and it would take that same age to understand him now. How embarrassing for his kids...

Cruz should have walked away with Iowa after refusing to pander on ethanol and having most of the Iowa Republican establishment come out against him? That’s why it was close.

All show and no go ? Maybe ?

I have to wonder if he is a gadfly liking the attention or does he really believe that a total new kind of campaign can work.

How many delegates did 3rd place Rubio get? 7. Same as trump and only 1 less than Cruz. Big deal.

Trump's consigliere should take his phone away from him. Serously.

I was happy for Cruz but his speech sucked. He started with the Gd thing, which is always horrible: Gd wanted ME to win in Iowa, because clearly Gd hates the other guys. WRONG. Then the rest was gloating about winning.

I was expecting happiness, gratitude (to the voters), and kind of a fight speech for all the work ahead. I was disappointed he took the tack of victory is meeeee.

I’m starting to dx him as on the autism spectrum. He really doesn’t have social smarts. Of course, I have the greatest love for people with autism so that’s fine. But he needs an advisor with more sensitivity to what’s appropriate.

Great and modest-sized book on mass movements that still speaks to why some people throw their lives away and join a cause to the exclusion of all else often including their lives. Giving Trump money would be a real sign that one has gone off the deep end.

Did Cruz really just apologize to Carson for playing up the lie that Carson

was getting out of the race??

Carson on the autism spectrum?

Asperger’s syndrome ??

He’s certainly an odd duck.

this guy does not have the emotional maturity to be president.

I think that many of us saw this some time ago, with his ego of mememe., but this tweet sealed it.

I see that the Art of the Deal has been blown, the veil has been rend.., every business person in the future will know how to call his bluff...Ailes called his bluff and look were it got Don.

Or not.

Perhaps Trump should drop The Apprentice and switch to The Biggest Loser.
