Thank God. The joke is over.
Is it?
Who knows what Trump's motivation was. We can only speculate. Yet, whether a joke or not, Trump at least went out and sounded like a candidate, unafraid to criticize and unafraid of political correctness. Compare this to the leading "milk toast" RINO's whom are left. But, it's still early and we've yet to find out all the candidates.
However, if Gov. Palin stays away as the Media is hoping, Conservatives will likely be unrepresented yet again in another Presidential election. If it's to be another 1996 re-do, been there, done that.
The odd thing with Trump's announcement is the coincidence of the timing, shortly after Huckabee made his announcement. Hmmm.....
