If you didn't the Trump roast some of the comedians really killed.

Can you imagine any other politician standing for that and laughing?

We need a change of leadership, that is for sure. No one will buy or control him. He will follow the laws.
But, I think he is playing with us right now.
He must have something on zerobama so watch him to see where this goes.
I haven't decided who to vote for.
The roast was a sorry attempt in humor and it failed.

I thought the last joke in the first segment was clever, the one about super models.

It was like they were afraid to really rip one of the richest men in the world, damndest thing!

I think Don would be a great president, he'd make descisions others before him, well we can assume got wrong or didn't make based on the economic crisis we are now in.

Trump?? You do realize that he donated $10,000 to Rahm Emanual's election campaign for Mayor of Chicago don't you? And it turns out that Trump has a Hotel/Casino plan pending in Chicago that is stalled in paperwork. So what he did is what any whore would do and paid off the hoodlum from Chicago to get his hotel built, which says "no ethics" or "principles" to me! How can you be opposed to a political party then support them like this?

I hope you also realize that we couldn't afford his hair dresser bills!

Trump would be a joke IMHO and the joke would be on us.........again! Trump is only looking out for Trump!

Having been in the position where a project was held up by useless red tape, I want someone that knows what it is like and would be motivated to get rid of that stuff.

Maybe I'm among the few that sees it as immoral, but didn't he file chapter XX some years ago? Doing so, he no doubt screwed people out of huge amounts of money. I'm sure that some of those folks were ruined by him. Then he slithered back to the top not too many years later.

Legal, maybe, but not right imo. Let a working class person try it and then see how they might do running for public office.

That reminds me of something Rush said in defense of Bill Clinton back when he was first running for office. It was something like, the list of experiences that one must have to get to the position of being able to even run for president doesn't include always dealing honestly and ethically."

By this I think he meant that we need to live in the real world where we have to understand that you will go nowhere and get killed if you live by the queensbury rules.

Trump and Palin? Palin and Trump?

I could see Trump as president as both much more likely to be elected and much more effective than Palin. She couldn't win under any reasonable circumstances and if she did....????? From what I've seen so far, I think he would be an awesome president.

Interesting idea since they appear to have some mutual appreciation for each other but I think the team up would be unlikely. Both having such strong personalities, I don't think they'd be content becoming the other person's VP. Kind of like the way a Barack-Hillary ticket would have been.

Trump has major corruption issues with China that could result in a lot of backlash should he decide to run. Traditional media has Trump ahead but Sarah appears to have an over 30% share of the internet blogs...3X Trump's 9.9% share.

Personally, I trust the Donnnnald just about as far as I trust the Auuuunald, and that's just about as far as I can spit.

Now that said, I would get out and campaign for Palin. (No way for Hillary!!)....

And I don't have a clue what kind of baggage Alan Keyes has, but if he is "CLEAN", I can see him running with Palin as a candidate of "COLOR"...............

It is quite obvious that you do not understand how business is done in Chicago. While supporting a political candidate in the hopes of favorable treatment may be seen as unethical in some circles, it is standard practice in Chicago. And for that matter, in the rest of the world as well.

[pdq67]

And that's what's wrong with Chicago and the rest of the world!

Morality goes out the window and then you live by the "Hammer and the Nail" mentality.

I know, I know, because it's true....

You are right, and I dislike this system.
But, you have heard the phase 'you have to join them to beat them"?

I know wealthy people who have told me they ALWAYS give to both candidates, with more going to the one who they think will win. They want to be able to recall a favor.
Tax deductible too.
