Oh, WOW!!! Donald Trump just announced he's running for POTUS

[sfreeman8]

Your thoughts?

He has great ideas on what he would do BUT Congress will never allow him to bring those ideas to fruition because of the trade agreements and other laws. He reminds me of a bull in a china shop.

It would be wonderful if he could get these things done but it'll never happen.

[potluck6]

he wants Mexico to pay for a wall to keep out immagrants from the US how funny.well atleast he gave the news channels something to talk about today.

[aflyingmonkey]

I think it would be interesting.
I would like to see it happen, even for amusement sake.   He's a strong individual. 

There needs to be some life in politics, they seem so corrupt now, it's quite pathetic.   

[BATISTAGIRL663]

i knew this was coming --all i can say is Good Luck to him ! there are so many running --i have always liked Donald

[lywb2168]

I think is funny, I personally cannot stand him he is just a character that wants to show that he can and thinks that can manage the government, but he has filed bankruptcy 4 times himself.  If he ever wins the good USA is really going to go down the drain LOL

[bowrunner]

He may have filed for bankruptcy but he is still a millionaire many times over so he knows how to get things done.  I rather wish he could be elected but he's so strong in his opinions he will probably turn a lot of people off.

[monnee]

It's just publicity for his show.  He did it once before.

[killers2]

He never actually runs.  He just claims it for publicity.

Well, it makes you wonder.  Congress has certainly allowed Obama plenty of room to do what he wants, so maybe Trump would have the same impact.  As far as Trump going for the Presidency, why not?  There'll be plenty of potential candidates by the time this is over.

[vickysue]

I doubt if he does get to run, but he darn sure will shake up those who are running. Some one needs too.  There are so darn many things wrong in our country right now. I pray we can get someone one in who is honest, loves this country, respects the military , balances the budget and get us back on the right track.

[bremer51]

I can't imagine he will get any party support. I'm afraid I'd have to leave the country if he were elected.

[mgint]

same as last time no chance to win

[sfreeman8]

No, it's not publicity for his show. He did not renew the show. In fact, that's why Mike Huckabee didn't renew his contract with Fox. When you run for president, you have to give up any TV shows/programs as it would be a conflict of interest. The FCC probably thinks it would turn into a half to 1 hour political platform, so I don't believe it's allowed.

He's not a millionaire, He's a BILLIONAIRE -> 4 Billion+ it's being reported.   How does a person declare bankruptcy over & over & still manage to be a billionaire. He's a genius!  The system is so crazy!

[ghunter]

The man is crazy, first of all and he talks and talks that's all.  No one will take him seriouly.
