    Donald Trump pushed back Sunday at President Barack Obama for making him the "focus of the evening" in his White House Correspondents' Dinner speech, and laced into Saturday Night Live comedian Seth Meyers as a "stutterer" whose delivery was lacking. Trump's comments came in a quick phone-in to "Fox and Friends," a day after he sat almost stone-faced while the president and Meyers ripped him repeatedly, to belly laughs from the crowd. People at tables around him gaped at him watching for a reaction, and some of his tablemates wrote on Twitter that it was uncomfortable. "Well, I really understood...
  • If Mr. "I Wanna Tariff China" Is The Front-Runner, We're In Trouble

    Right Across The Atlantic ^ | Michael Merritt
    First he claimed to have evidence that Obama isn’t born here, and when the President finally released the birth certificate, basically came out and said “Just kidding!” Now Donald Trump tells us he wants to set a tariff of 25% on products coming from China and have the federal government set the price of oil. In most other cases, we’d call this guy a progressive. But over the last few weeks, Trump has became a sort of hero to many Republicans, due to a non-issue. What’s going to become popular next because Birtherman advocates it? Bailing out banks? Allahpundit at...

    Fresh off the allegations that Donald Trump's various "birther" and affirmative action conspiracies about President Obama were racist, now the spotlight is being shone on Trump's long history of sexist, if not downright sleazy, comments about women. In a column for the Washington Post, Anna Holmes brings up the "Trump Rule," as described by beauty queen Carrie Prejean, in her book about the Miss USA pageant. According to Prejean, the Miss USA pageant had a requirement that contestants parade in front of pageant owner Donald Trump so he could separate out those he found sexually appealing from those he did...
  • Unofficial Facebook Poll: Election 2012: Donald Trump? Sarah Palin? Death?

    04/29/2011 6:45:22 PM PDT · by 2ndDivisionVet · 35 replies
    I posted this question on my Facebook page: If you had to vote for President in 2012, and your choices were either Donald Trump or Sarah Palin, and if you didn’t vote you would die, who would get your vote? I have a wonderful group of responsible and accomplished friends. They are smart, funny, entertaining and happy. They are impressive and I cherish each of them, so imagine my surprise at how many were willing to die. It’s a silly question really, but people gave it a lot of thought. There was much talk of going to Canada but that...

    Even at MSNBC, which gets crushed of course by Fox News in every prime-time slot, Cenk Uygur manages to come in dead last in ratings among his liberal peers. So when Cenk claims that he covers Donald Trump not because he wants to--suggesting he'd rather be reporting on Pawlenty/Romney's latest doings--the baloney-meter starts screaming. View video here.

    Since launching his attack on President Obama, Donald Trump is racking up quite a list of enemies in traditionally left-leaning Hollywood. Below, a round-up: Jerry Seinfeld: He pulled out a charity event for Trump's son because he grew uncomfortable with Trump questioning Obama's citizenship. Trump lashed back at Seinfeld, saying that his NBC show The Marriage Ref was "terrible" and a bomb for the network. "I have no problem with him," Seinfeld just told Extra. "I just can't be with him." David Letterman: He says he might consider banning Trump from his late night CBS show until he apologizes for...

    Hotair ^ | 04/29/2011 | Allahpundit
    Via Mediaite, which has excerpts from last night’s F-bomb cavalcade. One of our commenters in Headlines watched the clip and observed that Trump is basically a leftist caricature of Republicans brought to life. Precisely — but with the caveat that something like 20 percent of the GOP wants to embrace the caricature. (That number might already be slipping.) He knows he’s too compromised on conservative principles to get traction with the base so he overcompensates with tell-it-like-it-is populist bravado aimed at framing himself as the ultimate regular-guy outsider. Calling the Chinese MFers is the logical extension of that; if he...

    And this might be why he never runs... not the F-bombs... it sounds like Trump has the quintessential rich politician problem: Vietnam. According to a new document unearthed by The Smoking Gun: Donald Trump received 4 student deferments, and one medical deferment, which is in contradiction to a previous quote explaining his draft status: “I actually got lucky because I had a very high draft number. I’ll never forget, that was an amazing period of time in my life.” Technically, that doesn't have to be a lie. Eventually Trump got a high draft number, but it appears that it's definitely...

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Guns, abortion and Donald Trump: Three topics so controversial that Groupon doesn't want its brand anywhere near them. The daily-deals website said late Thursday that it will pull its ads from the website of Donald Trump's television show "The Apprentice" to distance itself from the "political criticism" swirling around Trump and his presidential ambitions. "Enough consumers have contacted us to warrant ensuring that we don't place ads on the 'Apprentice' homepage in the future," the company said in a post on its blog. "It's the same reason we don't run deals on guns or abortion ......

    Here’s the reality: Donald Trump was never a Republican and he doesn’t care about Republicans, Conservatism, or the Tea Party. The strength of the Tea Party simply allowed Trump a vehicle for his ultimate goal: a full out assault on Obama. So, he adopts all the positions of the biggest movement in the US and launches his attacks. And why? Donald Trump wants to destroy Obama because Obama took down the Clinton machine, a machine that Trump was very fond of. Remember those angry Hillary voters from 2008 who vowed not to support Obama because of his campaigns sexism towards...

    AP via Washington Post ^ | April 28, 2011 | AP
    NBC was not responding to a challenge by talk-show host Lawrence O’Donnell to disclose whether Donald Trump will return next fall with “The Celebrity Apprentice.” “NBC has created a monster and it is called Donald Trump,” O’Donnell said in a blistering 15-minute rant on Wednesday’s edition of his show, “The Last Word,” which airs on MSNBC, a sister network of NBC. “NBC can no longer stand idly by, not for one more day,” he said. If a deal is in place for another “Apprentice” season, Trump’s attention-grabbing flirtation with a presidential bid is nothing more than a publicity stunt, O’Donnell...

    Last week, Daily Beast columnist Meghan McCain sat down for an interview with potential 2012 GOP presidential nomination contender Donald Trump. The interview itself received criticism from many circles, and drew notice from both the right and the left. On “Imus in the Morning” Thursday on the Fox Business Network, the daughter of the 2008 Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain, responded to her detractors and had no qualms with such criticism. “You know I’m not a journalist, I’m a columnist and a commentator and working on being a media personality and I’m not mean, if you need a hard...

    Salon ^ | 04/27/2011 | Justin Elliott
    Donald Trump has emerged in recent years as the nation's foremost China basher, going after the Asian superpower for undervaluing its currency and for taking American manufacturing and jobs. So it's at least ironic -- and at most an example of gross hypocrisy -- that Trump's own line of men's wear, the Donald J. Trump Signature Collection, is manufactured in China. I discovered this after walking from Salon's offices to the large Macy's in midtown Manhattan, where an entire section is devoted to the Donald J. Trump Signature Collection of suits and ties. This particular corner of the store is...

    Donald Trump slammed Robert De Niro Monday, following the Oscar-winner’s criticisms of him this weekend, telling Fox News that the actor is “not the brightest bulb on the planet.” “I like his acting, but in terms of when I watch him doing interviews and various other things, we’re not dealing with Albert Einstein,” Trump told “Fox & Friends” Monday. “He can say what he wants but the fact is that this guy has not revealed his birth certificate, a lot of people agree with me.” Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2011/04/25/donald-trump-responds-robert-deniros-criticisms-hes-brightest-bulb/#ixzz1KYhSOFFG

    Gallup ^ | 04/27/2011 | Frank Newport
    More than 6 in 10 registered voters nationwide say they would definitely not vote for Donald Trump or Sarah Palin for president in 2012, significantly more than say the same about possible Republican candidates Mitt Romney or Mike Huckabee, or about President Barack Obama. None of the four potential Republican candidates measured in the April 20-23 USA Today/Gallup poll has officially announced that he or she is running for president, although none has ruled out a possible candidacy. Trump, however, has been highly visible in recent weeks, talking openly about the possibility of a presidential bid while focusing heavily on...

    History is going to show that in the 21st Century two men attempted to save the United States of America from a political coup d'état when the Supreme Court and the U.S. Congress refused too. Donald Trump and Professor John F. Gaski are two men who refused to allow group think or politically correct “suspension of disbelief” blind them from the truth. President Barry Hussein Soetoro is hiding evidence that possibly proves he is and has always been ineligible. Because the president is hiding his vital records, school records and political records that suggest that he always knew he was...
