and basically calling Mitt Romney a small businessman. Just an observation about Trump and his bravado: I think this will wear thin real soon. People having hard times and being wrung dry by greedy corporations are not going to want to see Mr. Corporation himself wallow in his wealth. He's the billionaires' candidate.

1. Trump is obnoxious to a comical level
And to boot, his casino went bankrupt. His CASINO. I don't think Trump is nearly as smart, as business-savvy, nor as wealthy as he claims. He's a self-promoter that is finally jumping the shark. In hilarious fashion. I hope the thing atop his head is soon involved in a serious accident.

2. I'd love to see a tick sheet of the bankruptcies he's had...and he's

had many.

Adding this link to an article sorta answering my own question. He's an expert on bankruptcy in the billions range. Perhaps he can help the nation declare bankruptcy and it won't hurt so bad.

4. Btw, you know what that thing is on top of Trump's head?
It's a South American brain sucker and you know what it's doing? Starving.

3. Trump. He's another one.

Along with Palin, I love these Republicans preparing for a presidential run by doing tv shows. Not governing a state. Not running for a senate seat as Hilliary Clinton did and increasing her knowledge of the mechanisms of government. No, these clowns and egomaniacs think doing tv shows are springboards into the presidency. If they don't get severly hammered by their democratic opponents over this in the debates, we are stupid.

5. He was a real jerk in his 20s
when I met him. He is even more of a jerk now, if that is possible.

6. He told the Palm Beach Tea Party that his goal is to "bring in billions and billions


of money from outside the United States" in order to rebuild our country.

I can see it now. Trump loves to make money with Other Peoples Money, he will put his stamp on our country, and make an even larger fortune.
