Oh I love that it's for charity, but it's still, in the long run, for Trump since he's the toupee spokesmodel. Sad. I've actually never watched the show other than trailers/commercials. I'm not much for reality (although SOMEONE got me hooked on RuPaul's Drag Race and I'm a huge AI person now. LOL) |

I watched the first few seasons. It was something completely different in the reality TV genre and I enjoyed it. I can't say that I knew much about him before the show so it was interesting to see him interact with contestants, the justifications he used for various things, etc. Back then, he didn't come across to me as the out of control, egomaniac, whack job that he has since become. I think I stopped watching shortly after the first Celebrity season.
I honestly can't see him running as the Republican candidate. I really doubt they would let that happen. I think if he does run, it will be as an independent, ala Perot, and I honestly think that could only be a blessing to the Dems. I also think that people (in general) and the Donald (specifically) are pretty clueless when it comes to the ability of the POTUS to actually do things. If it was as easy as "When I'm President, I'll fix things because I'll be the President and the President can make stuff like that happen" then all the stuff that should have been fixed all along wouldn't still be broken. |

The ratings for the show have gone way up since he began this garbage. And reports are that his only real income is from the show. I can proudly state I have never watched it. I don't watch "reality TV" shows. I guess some, like DWTS might be good, but, I just don't watch them. Can you imagine what the rest of the world would think about Trump actually being the GOP candidate for president? Although, he does represent the type of US personality that many countries dislike about us. |

That statement is untrue. Reports are propaganda. Because he is extremely vague about it, for one. BUT, he will have to open his closet of secrets soon. Then we will all know, and we'll pretend we cared in the first place.

Yes, if he actually rund for the GOP nomination- there will be disclosures. To be honest, I don't believe he will end up in the primaries. And now, he has Franklin Graham for support! GeeZuuuuussssss!!! |

I think my main problem with all of the press Trump is getting is the "Birther" garbage. I just cannot come up with anything other than racism as why and how this entire "movement" got started.
FerGoddessesSake, John Mc Cain could have had more of an issue with his birthplace (Panama Canal Zone)! Few remember this when he got the GOP nomination for the '08 race. White vs. Black??? I think so. Also, ALL presidential candidates have as part of their "war chest," line items for legal representation. Mc Cain and Obama spent money via this election part of their "budgets" on birthplace facts. Interesting how Obama's birthplace has stuck in this insanity. A link for an 2008 article about McCain's birthplace- http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/28/wo....10514626.html Sometimes I do wonder if a person like Trump could actually get into a presidential race as a true threat, a viable candidate. I wonder because of the kind of stuff happening with the tea Party factor and birthers, etc. Also because of just how frustrated people are with things and what the "common" person has been going through economically on top of all of the swindling on Wall Street and in the housing sector. |

Well, Trump apparently just called President Obama "not Ivy league material" in a recent interview. I guess he missed the part where President Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law.
Someone needs to plug that foghorn up.

More distraction from the facts, still no jobs, still paying the price for BP, still in economic slump, and all the while LGBT rights being held back if not overturned. There is more to keep one occupied than the rants of a mad man.

He has a very long entrepreneurial history dating well beyond 20 years during booms and recessions. Back then he knew how to play that game but the rules of those games have changed. No one does business the way they use to and marketing has drastically changed with the economy and technology. During his mega era most men like him act like that, Now he's old, his game plan changed and although his ego still in tact he replies on minions to market him. Of course its about the ratings. Thats his pay check right now.

When I think of Donald Trump...
I can't get past this...
A step-by-step guide to the gravity-defying Donald Trump combover By NICK MCDERMOTT AND STUART NICOLSON Last updated at 1:00 AM on 11th June 2008 Comments (0) Add to My Stories Enlarge The Donald: What's the difference between an astronaut and Donald Trump's hairdo? One defies the law of gravity, the other's a spaceman Over the years we've had our share of great British combovers - Arthur Scargill and Bobby Charlton to name but two. But both men would have to doff their cap to the astonishing coiffure of American billionaire Donald Trump. Rather than invest any of his considerable fortune in a transplant or wig, the 61-year-old property magnate insists on using a series of elaborate measures to plaster strands of hair across his balding pate. More... Hair-raising moment as billionaire Donald Trump drops in to visit his Scottish relatives Occasionally, however, it comes unstuck - notably this week when faced with the insistent breeze on the Isle of Lewis, where he was visiting his mother's former home. Here, the Daily Mail shows how to achieve the Trump look ... in the unlikely event that anyone would want to emulate it. As for the man himself, he was at a public inquiry in Aberdeen yesterday to be questioned yesterday by environmental campaigners and local councillors over his plans to build 'the world's greatest golf course'. Enlarge After spending more than three hours giving evidence he said: 'I am shocked to be here. I thought I would be building the course by now.' The flamboyant tycoon wants to create two golf courses, a clubhouse, a massive hotel, a conference centre, a golf academy and 950 holiday homes on the Menie Estate in Aberdeenshire, which is currently used for shooting. Warning that turning down his plans 'would be a terrible, terrible loss to Scotland' he said the proposed site was currently littered with the carcases of animals. He said: 'It's a total mess. When you walk on the site right now it's sort of disgusting. There are bird carcasses lying all over the site. 'There are dead animals all over the site that have been shot. There may be some people that are into that. I am not. 'When I build the course we won't be killing birds. We will be trying for birdies and eagles, but we won't be killing them.' The billionaire tycoon sported a somewhat flyaway version of the combover after he landed in Stornoway on his private Boeing 727, which is emblazoned with TRUMP in large gold letters on the side. Accompanied by his older sister Maryanne, it is the first time he has been on the island since his mother took him there as a child. And he admitted that he would probably have walked away from his plans to build a £1billion golf resort if his mother had not been from Scotland. When asked if he would have given up on his plans for the Aberdeenshire resort after they were initially rejected by the council had his mother not been from Scotland. He said: 'I think probably I would have, yes. 'It is really easy to find a nice piece of land to do something nice on. But Scotland is special and I wanted to do something special for my mother.'

OMG.
This lying sack of shit has actually stated to Anderson Cooper that he "has people on the ground investigating in Hawaii and that he's been told that the President's birth certificate is missing". (paraphrase) Even though Anderson Cooper busted him out and was like "Uh, we ALSO have people on the ground in Hawaii and they've all talked to everyone who would have been associated with Obama's birth from people in the hospital at the same time as he was born to people who worked there and none of those people say that any of your people have contacted them." He then went on to ask the DumpTruck to name ONE person they had spoken to in regard to Obama's birth and the Dump refused. Couple that with another statement that he wont/cant back up with facts like, "I heard he was a bad student" when talking about Obama's Harvard days, and it appears that Donald Trump is willing to bald-faced LIE his ass off on television for ratings. He's a phony. A liar. And most of all, an embarrassment.

He's not seriously running. The publicity is good for his business. And he likes the attention.

There is another portion of this interview on AC-360 tonight, I believe. And I think Trump is on Hardball tonight. That ought to be good- Chris Mathews does not mince words. Oh yeah, an African American student at Harvard (and president of Law Review material) is going to be a poor student. I don't think so! The pressure for him to succeed had to be huge. He comes from humble beginnings and as far as I'm concerned has earned everything he has and has accomplished. No, I don't agree with every presidential position he holds, but he is a very bright person and frankly, a good human being. One of the only presidents in my lifetime that I honestly do think loses sleep at night over what he deals with. I am also getting tired of all the focus on just his paternal background, too. On his mother’s side, there is quite an honorable military service history in his family. And now we have Franklin Graham backing Trump and making statements about Obama's faith again. What I really hope is that Obama will continue to not give this BS any personal attention- not dignify it. People that believe this are never going to believe he is a US citizen. I just want to slap Trumps little whiney mouth!! |
