Donald Trump

Heard this morning that Donald Trump is throwing his hat in the ring for the Presidency. He says he wants to rebuild America and possibly take on the Chinese. I think the first one is achievable, but "take on the Chinese"...delusions of grandeur methinks.

What is the general feelings about Trump for President?

Choice 1. Dumb
Choice 2. Dumber
Choice 3. This is a joke right?

No wonder the large majority of americans dont vote, with the 3 running atm there is no intelligent choice.

Take on the chinese?
What a joke, its blokes like Trump that have moved their manufacturing to china because its cheap and they wanted to get rich quick.
The chinese own half of your 18 trillion dollars of national debt (yes thats 18 with 12 zeros) you guys have bankrupted yourselves and bank rolled the chinese into the position they are in now. They own the usa not you lot living there.
How many of the 3 clowns running are being paid for by the chinese?

Trump is jumping in (I suppose) to take the heat off of candidates more inclined to be viable. The media and the Dems. are pulling the 'let's find some dirt' method of weeding out people and will find a field day with Trump. Marco Rubio and his wife's traffic tickets (for instance) may seem trivial to some but to the Dems. and to the media it's bigger than Hillary's "dead broke" and her Benghezi "at this point, what difference does it make" so while they chew on Rubio, lest we forget about Hillary.

China vs Japan? Both countries unloaded U.S. debt during the month of January, but China sold more, making Japan the top U.S. creditor for the first time since the financial crisis. We owe Japan more than we owe China, Treasury data shows that over the past year, China's U.S. debt holdings dropped by $49.2 billion, while Japan's increased by $13.6 billion.

If anyone could take on the Chinese it would be Trump. I kind of like him.

I think Trump is a clown, although he's obviously good at making money. Which is at least one step up from the current clown in chief.

dhc4ever, Trump is known as a real estate mogul, buying and selling expensive properties. I don't think he owns any manufacturing businesses so I'm not sure sure the analogy of moving his manufacturing to China really makes sense in this case. But I may be wrong.

I'm not thrilled by any of the so called conservatives who are running, including the local guy Graham. And please, I thought I'd never say this but NO MORE BUSH.

Trump, why not. Do you remember what they said about Regan? Just an actor, he'll never win, greatest President since Eisenhower. IMHO.

He wants to have Oprah as his vice president!??

Anti-gun, anti-republic, anti-self-sufficiency Oprah? Is he stupid enough to really want that?

It guarantees him the presidency... he'd pick up the majority of both the women and black vote, Hillary would loose that same amount.

Overall, i agree with Suz, crazy man enters the race to draw attention from the other candidates.

Azar,
More a broad shot at the so called leaders of a now defunct industry in the US rather than Trump specifically.
Anyone making over $500,000 a year is out of touch with reality as the majority see it.
How much money are these clown about to pee up against the wall?

Cheers
