Exclusive: Trump to Announce His Run for President
Newsmax ^ | April 12, 2011 | Ronald Kessler

Posted on 04/13/2011 6:28:02 PM PDT by RobinMasters

If you wonder whether Donald Trump is serious about running for president, tune in to the finale of “The Celebrity Apprentice” on May 15.

Trump plans to say on the NBC show that he will be holding a press conference in the next few days. At that press conference in the Trump Tower in New York, Trump will be announcing his candidacy for the presidency.

Even then, many will snicker that it’s all a publicity stunt. But that defies the facts and common sense.

Of all the people on the planet, Donald Trump is the last person who needs more publicity. And if he is riding a groundswell of support, why would he—or anyone else—decide not to run?

Since writing the first story in January to report that Trump will definitely run, I have been amazed at how much the idea of a Trump presidency is catching on across the political spectrum. As I wrote in my story, Don’t Underestimate Donald Trump for President, he can be outrageous and boastful. But when it comes to a successful run at the presidency, don’t count him out.

Someday when we own 99% of Both houses and unemployment is at 2.5%

Just when will that be? The 12th of Never? ;)

But remember the GOP establishment said the same thing about Reagan.

“He’s a former democrat!”

“He’s pro union”

“He must be a liberal because he’s divorced”

“He was president of the union”

So what exactly is conservative about the issues highlighted in post #75?

Pro-choice conservative?
Supporting the Assault Weapon ban conservative?
Supporting the UN conservative?
Supporting progressive tax code conservative?
Being financially tied to Soros and Dems conservative?
Supporting and benefiting from eminent domain seizures conservative?

Ever read his book “The America We Deserve”? It reads just like a handbook for Clinton’s “Third Way” PAC.

Looks like we have another one who is swooning because Trump Bieber winked at him.

What good is that list of yours if we have an alleged "President" in the White House pretty much blowing his nose on our Constitution and a Republican controlled Congress just sitting and watching?

Well, its one thing to have skeletons as a high profile business tycoon and another thing to have them as a Presidential candidate. Just ask Newt.

What you did was disprove what you wrote...all of that stuff is not new and years old. You wrote he was far left and much of that is not far left..and is also not a switch a couple of weeks ago. You discredited yourself my friend.

Good Grief.

Heaven help us if Trump survives into the primaries.

If you don’t consider that far left, you must be confused what site you are on. The Daily KOS was two turns back to the left.

“Ryan / Bachmann 2012”

That would be a refreshing ticket. I wouldn’t mind a new Speaker of the House as well.

"I don’t see how a 25% tax on China helps anyone. China will impose a similar tax on American made goods we sell to them. End result is higher costs for both Chinese and American made goods passed on to you and me. Not good, IMO."

* China has already been waging a trade war against us. It's common knowledge.

* That's beside the point for Americans. Tariffs are the prescribed constitutional way of preventing the economic decline in the West that we're experiencing now.

* Our national security is being compromised by the trade war fought against us by the Peoples Liberation Army and their U.S. collaborators.

* Over 150,000 Chinese businesses and all Chinese banks are still state-owned (communist).

My opinion is that Obama was born in Hawaii but that the long form release would be very embarrassing for him by probably exposing him as a fraud that was born "Barry Dunham" ...... With a "Single" mother ..... Since polygamy is illegal in Hawaii.

Bingo! . plus maybe religion listed as Muslim. One of Obama's attorneys said in their response in one of the lawsuits that the release would be embarrassing for Obama.

But if he wins the GOP nomination

Like that will ever happen. Trump might get elected as a mayor somewhere someday but he will never ever come close to getting the GOP nomination. He may run as an independent and muck up the works.

I think he gets the nomination. Reps are tired of all the bozo’s out there. Time we get someone radical.

He has no birth certificate. His hippie mother never bother to do the paper work, in fact, I doubt if Obama was ever Naturalized.
