Title: President Donald Trump?

I think his economic policy would be pretty good, I am worried though that a New Yorker wouldn't get the gun issue.
He does have a ccw but that doesn't prove anything.

We have a Jupiter-sized ego in the White House now. I don't think we could stand one any larger.

Trump makes my skin crawl.

Trump would liven up any campaign simply because he will say things other candidates wouldn't.  Right out of the box he takes on "free trade" and how it isn't.  Trump reminds me of the kids along the rope line in the tale "Emperor's New Clothes".

I'd vote for him.  On the other hand there probably aren't too many people in the world that, if they ran against Obama, would cause me to vote for Obama.
But I am sort of set in my ways ....  [tinfoil] :angel:

In his speech at CPAC, he said he is anti abortion and supports the 2A.

I'd probably vote for the guy. Two problems, one he is the left's PR wet dream. OMG teh evil bigse businesses man! He wants our poor people's precious but we won't let him haves it!

2nd, any after hour oval office antics that go down will probably make WJ Clinton look like an Eagle scout. Womanizer in Chief, hairpiece in chief, I can see it all. Easy for G.B. Trudeau to draw, economic stability for late night hosts.


On CPAC, who cares? All the pet social conservative causes will just torpedo any chance of a candidate surviving the primaries and making Obama one term. Unless of course the raving left does the same to their *former man. Personal views aside, I don't care about a lot of the wedge issues right now. I just want a simple statement like that man is a socialist, I am not. We can fight out the small stuff in more appropriate venues.

Trump once attempted to use the power of gov via eminent domain to seize a woman's house- so they could give it to him to tear down and build a limo parking lot.  That tells me everything I need to know about his view of other people's rights.   :mad:

Nothing like tearing down the other candidates at CPAC.

(While I agree that RP is probably not electable, "electability" is what's wrong with the entire process.  "Electability" got us McCain.)

4 times that I was able to find.

An election that ends up Trump vs. Obama would be the ultimate vortex of suck.

Hey, why not? Donald Trumps brain ended up in Bill's body for a while, at least in the comic strip.

PUULEASE anyone would be better.
Government isn't business and you cannot run a business like government and visa versa. And Trump ain't much of a businessman.
