Trump supported Hillary Clinton in the primary and was ticked off, first, when she lost to Obama and then again when she was snubbed for the Vice President slot. This caused Trump to “support” John McCain and attack Obama, despite the positions of Obama and Clinton not being all that different. There is no other reason for his John McCain support except to know that Clinton lost to Obama, and he was not happy about that. After all, he had supported the DNC, Clinton, Reid, Kennedy, and all the other bigwigs of Democratic Party politics that were tied to the Clintons, had claimed that Democrats are better for business, and supported Hillary’s socialist health care plans. Even within the last 2 years his support of Clinton cronies ran high. He supported longtime Clinton ally Rahm Emmanuel with $50,000 in his recent race for Chicago mayor. Emmanuel initially supported Hillary for President before declaring “neutrality” because of Obama’s Chicago ties. Trump supported Clinton ally Terry McAuliffe with a $25,000 donation in his bid for Virginia Governor in 2009 and then, like with Hillary Clinton, did not support the eventual Democrat primary victor. Trump gave around $100,000 to the Clinton Library/Foundation. Even during Trump’s Birth Certificate crusade he has constantly cited Clinton’s initial rumor-milling during the 2008 primary about Obama’s eligibility.

So, there’s your reason: Trump’s anti-Obama rampage has more to do with his loyalty towards the Clinton’s (and his anger at their fall) than any sudden “change of heart” over conservative policies. And that’s the story of a Clintonite scorned. Is he running? Doubtful. Trump doesn’t have the attention span to run a 2 year campaign, much less be President. He will never release his full finances in order to run. He hasn’t set up any form of website or campaign structure. He doesn’t want to give up his TV show and he doesn’t want to surrender 8 years of money-making (not that he would get elected).

Trump may be collaterally helping Shrillary, but it doesn’t matter.

Shrillary and the impeached Bill Clinton don’t have a chance. Trump really is representing the “silent majority”

I think there just may be something to this........let’s keep our eyes open for how things develop with Trump.....

I could see his swinging his support for Hilary on the last day of his show, throwing all the support that he generates to her........

Trump is not a conservative. Period. No conservatives should be supporting a potential candidate for President who is not a conservative.

Trump should go run in the Democratic party. He can launch a primary campaign against Obama. Trump’s past policy positions such as his support for socialized healthcare, massive wealth taxes, etc, would allow him to run as a populist leftist. He’d get support from the Dennis Kucinich wing of the Democratic party.

Exactly. I think this piece is 100% correct.

It’s a nice, neat theory and it explains a lot. Except I have a hard time believing that Donald Trump is loyal to anybody more than himself. Could the Clintons really help him all that much? They are after all carpet-baggers in NY.

[CaptainK]

SO Trump is willing to spend his money to be painted a birther kook, a racist and become a social piranha just to help the out the Clintons? Really?

While that makes sense a simpler explanation for his actions is that he burnishing his brand with a whole lot of free advertising.
