Trump for President?

[Boise40]

God help us if he ever does become our president. I'm willing to bet that he will just help the rich and all the high class people. Then, he may run the low income and middle class people to the dirt. Then again, I can always be wrong about Trump.

Anything but Obama again.... We're suffering enough. I'd have to learn more about Trump's plan, before I would vote for him. The same note he is a proven buisness man, and He might actually be a perfect fit. Good Question!

I  think that he would fit in with all of the other lying/cheating/corrupt officials currently holding office and who have held office in the past.  I doubt that he would be voted in especially given other uber rich business people who have made the attempt like H Ross Perot. I don't think that Obama is doing a bad job given the mess that he had to clean up after the Bush debacle.

A lot would depend on how Trump related to the American people. There was a HUGE difference, IMHO, when Perot took the stage. You could tell right away that he wasn't about to play the "politics as usual" game. Everything he did was related to conversing with people. He didn't give a rats backside to the political machinery in place. As for an instance, remember he dropped out of the limelight. Many saw this as a negative, and to a degree, it was. But what I got out of that was a man saying he didn't appreciate his family being investigated the way they were, and he was standing up for himself and his family. A noble gesture.

Remember all his Pie Charts? He did something that no other person in my lifetime has ever done. He broke complicated matters down to a layman's point of view. That impressed the snot out of me. Someone hand me a tissue. He promised many times that should he be elected to the office, he'd have many more such informal gatherings with the American people, to keep them abreast of what was happening in Washington. Perot was the epitome of "by the people & for the people".

Money didn't mean much to Perot. And this was evident in how much he spent of his own money to further his campaign. And he spent a good chunk of change doing so. Just look at all the television spots he took out.

Anyway, Perot is gone, and I'm crying. I wish he'd come back. But my point of all this was in the very first line: "A lot would depend on how Trump related to the American people." If Trump emulates the same playing field as Perot, I might just get out there and vote for the second time in my 45 years of living. Perot was my one and only time I felt compelled to vote. Perhaps, Trump will be #2.

People make fun of Donald Trump because of his hair.  However, he has a shrewd business sense and I believe could turn this country around from the mess it is in right now. I will vote for him if he runs.

NO WAY!!!! Curse you for even thinking that, that aborted example for a human being could be someone as important as the president of the untied states.

The vision I see if it does happen is,  the earth going into a super nova tail spin into the sun killing everyone within seconds! Only good thing about it is you'll even feel it. You'll be dead long before the earth hits the sun.  Pray everyone that this never happens. Trump is the devil dressed in an Armani suit. America, don't take the devil's deal!!!!!

[Neyonce]

I agree with most and say that its a publicity stunt. I mean really Donald Trump for president. Please!!! I think he's jst trying to get ratings for the apprentice. I couldn't see myself voting for Donald let alone respecting him as the president of the U.S.

[investyourtimehere]

A big NO for me.

[tech2d]

A very big NO from me!! The man flip-flops on issues! He might be a good businessman, but I don't think he will be a good president. Gee...look at the President's birth certificate issue. He proved he was born here and Trump is STILL beating that dead horse!

[mgint]

he won't win he gets lots of headlines but not enough people like him to even get republican nomination.

[ULuvCeCe]

Did anyone see the interview he did with that GMA anchor? He kept telling him you will see, next question, next question. Well HELLO if you're going to be any bit of a politician especially the president, you will get asked questions you do not like, you have to pose an answer, maybe even a work around but you can't just pick and chose what questions you will answer. I see a lot of politicians answer a question then say well I already answered that with ____ lets move on. But Trump just beyond rude.

[abuckley0]

He is a smart man businessman but a president? I don't know about that? I doubt he will even run.

[kylereyes28]

We do that the US becomes a joke to world, just because the guy is not only dirty with his business ethics, but he is arrogant and do not know anything about politics

[roshelle7]

i hope he doesnt get taken seriously

[alnsue1955]

Could we really do any worse than we are doing now? Lost my job, lost my dignity...all because of how difficult it is to do business in U.S. now. Perhaps if the man could control some of the decisions made, he could bring his job opportunities back to U.S.  Don't fault him for being a good businessman...how else could he sustain wealth?
