Sarah Palin and Donald Trump both interested in 2016 runs

Washington (CNN)With a Clinton, a Bush and a Romney all seriously teasing presidential runs, why not a Palin?

Why not, indeed.

Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate was asked by ABC News if she's interested in running for the White House.

"Of course," she said during the interview, which was conducted as she served wild boar chili to the homeless in Las Vegas.

Teasing a presidential run can become something of a hobby for people with a certain level of political celebrity.

Donald Trump, the reality TV star and real estate developer, has teased runs for the White House during a few presidential cycles. He's in Iowa this weekend, too.

He again didn't rule out a potential 2016 run for himself, saying if he actually launches a campaign, he'd do it before June.

YES YES YES Both of you! GO FOR IT! Let's have the full flowering of over-the-top looooonacy of the GOP on display! I can't wait!

1. Sarah claims to have the "heart of a servant."

And the mind of a brick?

[Jackpine Radical]

7. Somewhere in Alaska, there's a brick

that is missing its mind.

[Andy823]

21. She meant to say

Heart of a "serpent", but you know how hard it is for her to actually communicate so others understand what she is saying.

[Vinca]

36. ROFL . . . I bet you're right.

[Jim Lane]

43. Obligatory joke here: You're being unfair... to serpents. (n/t)

Poors should know their place, you betcha.

[undiegrinder]

34. I respectfully disagree.

While Trump is just a self-aggrandizing moron, Palin "distracts" with a steady spew of dog-whistle racism: "shuck n' jive," "lackadaisical," etc.

The fact that her reality/freak show's 15 minutes has lasted 6 years and counting -- that her ignorant, divisive 'punditry' is STILL being reported by the 'lamestream media' -- reveals that she's a figurehead and spokesperson for the vicious hatred which has fueled Republican ostructionism, the cost of which to America can be measured in billions of dollars.

In return, Palin gets the only two things she really loves: money and attention.

I SO wish someone could find the legal means to end her virtually-treasonous "distractions."

[big_dog]

53. sarahs got about one more reality show left, and then its over

she just cant deliver the goods anymore

[truebluegreen]

3. I call BS.

Whatever they say, they are only interested in filling their coffers and to do that they need to stay in the spotlight. Actual work? Um, no.

[MANative]

19. This ^^^^^

[BarbaRosa]

5. Of course she's going to run.

That's where the cameras and microphones are.

[BeanMusical]

40. Lol!

The Clown Party.

[Fortinbras Armstrong]

22. They are interested in running

But is anyone interested in having either one of them run? Even most Republicans see Palin as a joke by now.

[Fred Sanders]

30. Who isn't interested in the most powerful job in the world...CNN should ask more credible folk. Like

maybe Big Bird?

[Fearless]

23. By all means please run!

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

24. Let's open up the asylum gates and get them all to run

I'd like to hear more from Herman Cain and his 9-9-9 plan. And let's see if Rick Perry has learned to memorize three things by now.

[AtheistCrusader]

26. Let the freak show begin.

[BadGimp]

27. The Clown Car of GOP hopefuls and wannabes has plenty of room

[brooklynite]

28. Palin and Trump NOT interested in running for President

they're interested in convincing the rubes that they're interested in running to promote their TV show, book, PAC funding etc.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

29. No, not really. It's just attention which leads to ratings which leads to more money for doing jack

shit.

[Mass]

31. worse media in the world

Why are the American media covering these two clowns ?

[oldandhappy]

33. The Sarah and the Donald

A song? giggle

They both love media attention. They both are scam artists. And I love toons so bring 'em on!

[OldRedneck]

35. No, she is not

Sarah Failin' has no intention of running for President or of even mounting a campaign.

Her comments that she may run, that she's thinking about it, and similar comments are aimed at the brain dead Palinistas who fall all over each other to smell her farts.

She knows if she says she's thinking about it, donations will roll into her unlimited PAC, allowing her to make another shopping trip to New York, or buy another house in Arizona.

It's all an act to fleece the flock.

[book_worm]

37. Yet another pathetic attempt by Palin to get attention.

[OldRedneck]

38. "Ass, cash, or grass" . . . what is Sarah Failin' selling?

A few years ago, I lived in NE Tennessee. A very nice young redneck guy lived across the road from me -- drove a fairly new truck -- had a bumper sticker that read: "Ass, Cash, or Grass -- Nobody rides for free." If you need to have this explained to you, ask me.

Check out Sarah Failin's video advertising her "Amazing America" teevee show. Exactly what did she trade for a ride in the convertible -- ass, cash, or grass?

[wordpix]

50. if it were up to Sarah, she would blast that mt apart for mining,

roads and housing developments

[rocktivity]

39. She and Trump could start

The Wild Bore political party.


rocktivity

[SmittynMo]

45. This is the funniest thing I've heard all year. n/t

[wordpix]

46. plenty of space in the new 2016 Clown Car manufactured by GOP

Unfortunately, the company is known for producing lemons and recycled products from the days of outlawed abortions, rampant racism, exploitation of the poor, and world-is-flat environmental science.

[Heywood J]

48. Come on, America! Sarah needs a new pair of shoes! (NT)

[truthisfreedom]

49. *snort!*

Gas up the clown car! It's gonna be a hell of a ride!

[tabasco]

51. Translation:

We're interested in setting up a bank account and traveling around on the suckers' dime for awhile.

[immoderate]

52. Dunno. But I think newcomer Ben Carson will give them competition.

There are people who take him seriously.

He's a good example of horizontal Peter Principle. He achieved the top of his profession without being incompetent. So he switched fields, to politics, where he can be incompetent.
