It's been a rather slow news week, so the media elites and pretty much everyone else have decided it's time to unleash the research that will ruin Donald Trump's shot at the Republican presidential nomination. (Not like it was hard to uncover or anything.) 2012's cartoon rich man frontrunner won't even make it to his "before June" announcement date -- his own books already prove that he's in favor of universal health care, against abortion, and hates Ronald Reagan. And his beautiful orange-tanned mouth is not helping. Here's Trump's answer on whether there's a right to privacy in the Constitution: "I guess there is, I guess there is."
This will be an interesting debate when Trump appoints three of his children to the Supreme Court.
Yesterday, the Club for Growth said Trump abused eminent domain laws and "tried to evict an elderly widow" to build a "limousine waiting area" at one of his constantly bankrupt casinos. "What is the Club for Growth and who are they supporting?" Trump said when asked about it. "I had heard that they have a favored candidate, whoever that may be." He seems to be really good at this politics thing! Very knowledgeable! A++++ strategy! [ Think Progress / TPM / Club for Growth / Politico ]
Here is a little gossip. I know someone who knows someone who works for Trump. The other night I asked why he was doing all this and they said it was because he owes so much money to certain people and they told him to do this. Then they said, no, they *required* him to do it. Sounded about right to me. Two years ago I went to look at the apartment/hotel he recently built in Lower Manhattan. It was basically a beige dorm room with a mini bar for over a million plus and you can't stay there for longer than a few weeks in any given year. This is a much better idea than McCain's 7 or 12 I can't remember how many exactly homes for America. You don't own anything, you can't live there, and you pay through the nose forever. I think a fun Presidency is just what we need. Barry be more fun!
We have a president who has executive experience. The bigger question now is do we want a president with gobs of &quot;executive experience&quot; who has gone bankrupt 3 times on <i>casinos</i>?
&quot;I am not a Trump fan&quot; - Yes you are. Romney has had executive experience. Why aren&#039;t you touting him to balance the budget and make a stronger economy?
