Posted on April 25, 2011 at 10:32pmI think people are so desperate to get Obama out of office they will pick Trump! But is Trump going to be right for the job? Trump’s (previous) record shows he leans left a lot! He is also very arrogant! Do I like the idea of Trump being arrogant with Obama? Yes! Do I like the idea of that arrogance aimed at China and stealing the Middle East’s oil??? Not so much! We have to be carful that we don’t go from the pan to the fire when considering The Trumpster! American’s are desperate but I really hope they do their homework in choosing the next president because one more bad one and we may be done!

Alright, the auto companies have shut down plants in Canada, Mexico and here, not seen in the news. Corporate earnings will be comming out at a lower rate by the end of June and July. On top of everything…the Fed is “supposed” to end the printing…..end on June. Seems to me there is a coordinated setup. Search the GDP growth forecast’s around the world that are being reduced…. It is comming our way….by structured coordination.

Posted on April 26, 2011 at 12:45amTrump has our attention because he is actually using strong language about things people feel strongly about.
I wish other people would be as outspoken as Trump is.
The issue is though – Trump doesn’t care if he gets elected or not – so he can say what he wants.
The mainstream politicians need to be so careful not to utter anything upsetting or wrong lest the media twist it into something that they will use against them – that they error on the side of not saying anything.
MAYBE if we had ONE TERM POLITICIANS then we could get more done around here. If people knew there was no chance of getting re-elected then they could do what is RIGHT versus what would get them re-elected.

Posted on April 26, 2011 at 4:25amERIC THE RED: Interesting thoughts….. Obama said not much of anything and got elected. Since when are American elections not about what we perceive as character? I think Obama basically won because he was half-black and NOT Bush. People were not seeing or hearing much of anything else. How is it that even people on the right are saying Trump is a joke — what, compared to Obama?
Report Post »I‘ve also been hearing that West doesn’t have enough experience–what, compared to Obama? Obama is just a piece of molded plastic compared to these guys. What’s his plan this time around? He’s too calm and steadfast in implementing his socialism to NOT have a plan.

Posted on April 26, 2011 at 6:08amLook how much attention Trump is getting… it’s the Media trying to pick our next candidate, some they believe they can beat and frankly, someone I wouldn’t vote for at all. Trump is too close to the Progressive line of thinking for me. Just go back and check his comments over the last couple of decades. Trump is a RINO at the very least.

Posted on April 26, 2011 at 7:04amNo Donald Trump is not running for President. He is either doing what the rebublicans cant do (ie: birth certificate, “worst president in history”, not smart enough etc) because they all would be called racist if they even mention half the topics Donal Trump has mentioned or he’s doing the demorcrats bidding by attempting to make the rebulicans look bad. If its the latter or maybe in spite of the latter, his beliefs will be associated to republicans and tea party for the duration of the 2012 elections.

I‘m glad that he’s shaking things up for our establishment elites and hope it‘ll be just the beginning because I’m tired of our two-party/one-party political system deciding who our presidential candidates should be…

Posted on April 26, 2011 at 10:16amSkip to the end, even Howard sees the joke.
Trump’s not serious. If he is, then fine, but the people who‘d vote for him aren’t serious about what’s happening in America today.
This guy has how many bankruptcies in his life and you want to turn the federal budget over to him?
This is a guy who told Fox News Sunday, “I’m totally pro-choice,” then later said he wants to see abortion removed from politics, that it’s “a personal decision that should be left to the women and their doctors,” who he believes should be employed only by the government, “I’m very liberal when it comes to health care. I believe in universal health care,“ then ”The Canadian plan … helps Canadians live longer and healthier than Americans… We need, as a nation, to reexamine the single-payer plan,” in his book, The America We Deserve.
Speaking of that book, we also got this gem from there: “By imposing a one-time 14.25 percent net-worth tax on the richest individuals and trusts, we can put America on sound financial footing for the next century.” Uh- try again. A 14.25% confiscation of wealth doesn’t make much of a dent at all. Even in 2000, when the book was published.
Here’s a guy, who in 2004 told Wolf Blizter, “I probably identify more as Democrat,“ and ”I’ve been around for a long time. And it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans.”
Trump also sent a hand-written letter to Pelosi when she got the Speaker’s chair: “Nancy — you’re the best. Congrats. Donald.” …then barely three months later said, “Bush is probably the worst president in the history of the United States.”
Then there’s my personal favorite: “I think (Obama) has a chance to go down as a great president.”
He’s a guy that has Soros connections in the financing of his Chicago tower, who is for letting Medicare continue unabailted while bankrupting us, who is for starting a Hoover-esque trade war with China.
Bottom line, the guy may be conservative, but he’s no Conservative. Little “c,“ big ”C,” big damn difference.
On Trump‘s claim that he’s be a good PotUS because he’s a good businessman (debatable- given his bankruptcy record), Mark Levin said it best: “(I)f I follow (Trump’s) logic, Bill Gates ought to be President of the United States because he’s worth ten times what (Trump is), and yet when it comes to economics and government he’s an airhead just like” (Trump.)
Amen, Mark. Amen.
