   @ richard aptekar:

   "He does not negotiate, he bullies, out-shouts, washes over good questions, fabricates answers. He’s a liar."

   Sounds like you've described Bill O'Reilly, as well!

   I dont know if I am going to vote for Trump, but I will vote for my dog Duke before I would vote for Obama. Granted the Republicans have to get a viable person to run (maybe Trump), but there is nobody on the dem side that does anything based on facts. Its all touchy feely and Obama, Reid and Pelosi are classic examples of how NOT to run a country (unless you are running it in the ground). And NO I am not a Bush lover, but the Obama blame game is wearing thin on even his most staunch supporters.

   Complete and total lack of professionalism on the part of CNN and, really, the media as a whole. They're acting like kids who are finding out Santa isn't real when they've invested so much emotional energy into the man.

   Please people, listen, You don't have to love him, or even like him, just get your facts striaght before you open your mouths. Politics has become BIG business, Trump has NEVER declared bankruptcy, he is very succesful buisiness wise. You keep paying at the pump and NOBODY wants to address it, he is talking about everything we complain about everyday, no-one else is even addressing it or any of OUR needs. He is so rich he does'nt need our money, he just wants to get rid of the B.S. Wake up people!

   @T-Rex, I'm sorry to have to burst your bubble, but Trump HAS declared bankruptcy. Repeatedly.

     May businessmen have. It's called learning. Do you know how difficult it is to start a business after bankruptcy? I doubt you do. Why don't you give it a shot and see if you make the billions (with a "b") that Trump has.

   Name me one, just one candidate that has even mentioned China, they pay no import tax, that alone would drop YOUR taxes enormously. We are in a war that was a vendeta for Bush because Sadaam threatened his father. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 but here we are. Needless death to thousands of our troops, broken families because of that and Cheney is still raking it in because Halburton is in every contract in the middle east. Forget the singer people, listen to the song. Obama is OK but he walks around like nothing is going on, yet drive around middle america and you see motels filled with families and kids studying like they were in the depression. Drastic? YES, but how much longer people How much longer.Drastic times call for drastic measures.

      what happened to the transparency the so-called president campaigned about? What happened to I will not except any special interest donations, that he campaigned about? Why does fox news have better ratings?

    Ok T- Rex, I'll use small words here. Trump never declared personal bankurptcy. His businesses declared bankruptcy. Remember Trump towers? Of course you do.

    Trump inhereted his money. He didn't make it, and he is no business man.

    @T-Rex: I agree with desperate times...et al, but Trump isn't the answer.

    I've said it before: a President is only as good as Congress will let him be.

    I think Trump has some good ideas. I especially like his idea of making the Saudi's and other Arab nations pay us back the money we've spend defending them and their oil. I like his idea of seizing the oil fields in conquered nations. Why not? is that too barbaric for many American's to stomach? To the victor go the spoils as the quote says. Screw the idea of policing the world and apologizing for the way America is. We need to run this country more like a business than a charity group. Lets do something to help THIS country instead of everyone else. Trump may or may not be the right man for the job, but i think at least he has the right idea...

      as scary as it is for me to admit, I agree with a lot of what you just said. I certainly don't think he's the man for the job, but SOME of his sound bites are good. (a lot easier to say things than do things. a lot easier to do some little things if you got the money)

    Obama is paying the cnn reporters to try and get trump to stop asking about the birth cert.

    Really though, I'm sure if the "prez" had a birth cert, it would have been presented long ago....

      I guess someone told you that he never showed his certificate. Its all over the place. Its the stupid people like you who dont want to believe blue is blue, red is red. You say its not real red or blue. Just cant digest the fact that he is the first president that is not white. Trump is playing you peanut heads for a nice big pay on his show. It will all be over very soon than you imagine.

    Showing with perfection why he is not Presidential material. This guy is ruining the illusion of himself being a very smart guy, when he is actually not very smart when it comes to what needs to be known about the history of the worlds countries. Go sell a condo Don.
