Yeah, he says something like: "They're rapists... some of them are nice people." :P
Does anyone take this blithering, bloviating buffoon seriously?

I think the only way Trump could realistically get the Republican nomination is if every other Republican candidate were to die. Virtually any opponent could pick him apart when he reveals himself to be a bloviating windbag who dabbles in wing nuttery in order to appeal to the most extreme element (such a birtherism). Or how he is a liar (remember how he claimed he had sent his people to Hawaii, who he said found proof that Obama's birth certificate was forged - until the President's birth certificate had actually been released, after which Trump pretended the whole incident never happened). Or just how ridiculous his policies would really be (such as his claim he need only surround and bomb ISIS, then send in oil companies to deprive them of their wealth). He doesn't even have the respect of any of the other Republican candidates, let alone their constituents. Somehow, I have to wonder if this isn't just some publicity stunt on Trump's part.

It probably is a publicity stunt, but the first debate will be priceless if Trump's included...

He had one thing on his resume relevant to executive office: being a kick-ass businessman.

He had no track records as a politician.

In that one comment (in which he admitted that "there are SOME good Mexicans") he showed that he could never be a politician (ie has NO skills for diplomacy, persuasion, nor coalition building). And oddly enough- since building that wall wouldnt be very cost effective- he also wounded his reputation as a businessman as well.

So...now he is NO resume at all!

Brilliant speech Donald!

Promotion to the oval office?

Are you kidding?
I wouldnt hire him to run a lemonade stand after that speech.

If you ask me...he's fired!

He hasn't until now.


Though he has been teasing the media about the possibility of him running for decades

The man is going to be very disruptive. He may get crushed in every primary but he has the money and ego to stay in the race right through the convention and beyond as an Independent and buy delegates.

We can only hope. The political theater would be fantastic. They could sell tickets to watch...

Speaking as one who hates sports, the Presidential race is my Superbowl! So I definitely would love to see Trump provide entertainment with his bloviating and blithering!

Sigh...............liberals and thier boogymen :roll: :roll:

Trump **IS NOT** going to be elected any more than Santorum or Palin were back in 2012. In fact, he has less of a chance than even they did.

Oh wise one, you misunderstand. We on the left have no delusions that Trump will be elected to anything. We simply love the political theater the right consistently delivers...

Mmm hmm.....That'll change as we get nearer to next year's election and you all have fits over any republican hopeful that rears thier head. Seen it all before right here in this forum.

I see NBC had dumped 'The Apprentice' over remarks Trump about immigrants being responsible for crime, drugs, and rape. The guy entertaining, I'll give him that

I'll laugh if the majority of Republicans are not taking Trump as seriously as they seem to be.

One less reason not to run, now that his show is gone, and be revealed to all America and the world what a buffoon he really is.
