Everytime I read something like this, a part of me laughs. But I can't help but agree with the majority of what he says.

    same.

    he has worked his ass off & continues as such. i am curious about his up bringing; was the trump family from a meager upbringing? important shit, man. i want my president to have starved when he or she was a kid.

    trump is smart as shit.

    He is making a lot of promises - Iraq, Afghanistan, bringing jobs back to the U.S. - so he already fits the mold of a politician. Now if only we could see into the future and see if he would back up these promises........my guess is he would be no different than every other blowhard.

    One of the first things a candidate for public office has to do is make their financial records avaialble for review.
    Does anyone really believe that Donald Trump will make his finacial statements public?
    Does anyone really believe that Donald Trump is honest with the I.R.S. regarding his income?
    ...
    Also, these CEO types make shitty politicians because they go in, thinking it ia a dicatorship, like their corporations... where what they say, goes. Swartznegger thought he would evecutive produce California, like his movies... calling all the shots, okaying all of the funding and firing whomever he wanted.
    Not so much, in government.

    You think he hasn't been audited out the ass? I doubt it would be an issue, and assuming he's got at least an 8th grade education, he'd know the requirements to run.

    Still... the problem I see with Trump is his unwavering love of Donald Trump. He knows where the money is and if he can make deals with China and triple his wealth, he'd do it.

    Regardless of any ideas he may have, the practical side is that being President isn't like running a business (no matter how successful you are). There's rules and bureaucracy to get through in order to get things done.. so in sum.. it wouldn't work.
    CONservative governMENt

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis
