June 16, 201511 yr Wow... @CNN: .@realDonaldTrump announces he's running for president: Donald Trump is running for president in 2016 - CNNPolitics.com https://t.co/4AS4mnMeCs
June 16, 201511 yr Pretty much everyone I know, left-winged or right-winged, thinks he's a "jerk," for lack of a better term.
June 16, 201511 yr Pretty much everyone I know, left-winged or right-winged, thinks he's a "jerk," for lack of a better term. I guess the question is can a jerk make a good President? Or more importantly will anyone vote for a jerk?
June 16, 201511 yr I'd be interested in hearing exactly what his ideas are. But that would require him to talk. (Wait...muting the volume on my TV) Political campaign rhetoric is bad enough as it is to now include him into the annoying ongoing chatter of false promises, and say anything for a vote debate fest. Honestly, where do they get these crowds of people who cheer at everything a candidate says? Sure, they're always there sounding like devout followers of their almighty leader, but seriously where do they find them? They barely seem real, but sadly I guess that they are.
June 16, 201511 yr He couldn't be any worse than the career politicians we have running now. At least he has some business sense. But, no I won't be voting for him.
June 16, 201511 yr I guess the question is can a jerk make a good President? Or more importantly will anyone vote for a jerk? For some uneducated voters, whether a person is a 'jerk' or not is probably how they decide on who to vote for. As mcpapa said, its interesting how there are probably almost 2 dozen potential candidates in the GOP, yet the Democrats have 3 serious names contending, and it looks (to me) like Hillary will win the nomination by a good margin.
June 16, 201511 yr I remember 4 years ago he had some good ideas and made sense with some of what he was proposing, but he's got ZERO chance of getting elected. The whole Birther thing tainted him with so many people...pretty much wrote him off after that.
June 16, 201511 yr Think about this, with the way he likes to fire people, the senate will spend all their time confirming nominations that they cant pass anything stupid for laws.........................this could be a win.

IMO they have only one serious name in contention. Hillary will get the nomination in a runaway.
June 16, 201511 yr I hope he qualifies as one of the top 10 for the first Fox televised GOP debate. I will eagerly watch in hopes that Mr. Trump is asked a question on how he would deal with Putin, or better yet, a question on how he intends to win the female vote.
