With the “birther” issue over the president’s citizenship put to rest, Donald Trump used a speech Thursday night in Las Vegas to vent about America’s oil dependency, our relationship with the Middle East and dealings with China.
Trump, a potential Republican candidate for president in 2012, grew so passionate that he cursed repeatedly, uttering seven expletives during a 40-minute speech at Treasure Island.
The audience loved it. Some said they appreciated his honesty; others praised him for being unlike any other politician.
While Trump didn’t announce his intentions to run for office, he seemed to be moving closer to launching a presidential bid.
When a woman in the crowd shouted, “Run for president,” Trump responded, “Thank you, darling. I think I’m going to make you very happy.”
Later, he noted, “There’s a good chance I won’t win,” adding that a “blood-sucking politician who has been (fooling) the public for years” will beat him. Trump used a more colorful word than “fooling.”
He called the country’s elected officials “stupid people” and said America’s leadership is “weak, pathetic and incompetent.”
Trump focused much of his speech on foreign relations.
He blasted President Barack Obama and Congress for making bad deals with China then rewarding the country’s president with a state dinner.
“When people are screwing you, you don’t give them state dinners,” Trump said. He suggested McDonald’s instead.
As for Libya and Iraq, Trump said he’s not concerned about those countries unless America can profit from their oil. They should pay for the protections the United States offers, he said.
“When we have a war, we lose thousands of lives, we spend trillions of dollars and then we leave,” he said. “I say we go in and take their oil.”
Trump also lamented the fact that the thousands of televisions he bought for his hotel properties came from South Korea rather than the United States.
He launched into a tirade about the need for American manufacturing and said he would implement the “Trump Doctrine,” requiring goods be made in the United States.
While he touched on a wide range of issues, the first words out of Trump’s mouth were about Obama’s citizenship.
Trump took credit for forcing Obama to release an official long-form copy of his birth certificate. Trump had questioned the president’s citizenship with increasing frequency over the past few weeks.
“I accomplished something that nobody else had accomplished,” Trump said.
Trump also slammed Obama for snubbing Las Vegas in the past. “Thirteen percent unemployment and we have a president saying don’t go to Las Vegas,” he said.
Trump is testing the political waters in Nevada and other early voting states as he decides whether to seek the Republican nomination for president. (Even if he loses, he has said, he may run as an independent.)
He said he will announce his decision by June.
Trump landed second among the crowded field of Republican hopefuls in a recent poll of Nevada voters. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who won Nevada handily in 2008, beat Trump by 8 percentage points, according to a Public Policy Polling survey released Thursday.
National polls show varying levels of support for Trump. Some show him tied for first; others show him trailing in fourth.
While he is in town for his friend Steve Wynn’s wedding, it’s no coincidence Trump is campaigning in Nevada. The state is third in line on the GOP caucus calendar, making it an important get for presidential hopefuls.
Trump is only the latest in a string of potential presidential contenders to visit Nevada. Romney, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour and former Pennsylvania Rep. Rick Santorum all have made recent trips here.
On Wednesday, Trump stopped in New Hampshire, the first primary state, to attend a GOP fundraiser and meet with activists. (He noted he was in a helicopter on his way there when the Obama birth certificate news broke.)
He will appear in Iowa, the second early voting state, in June. And he headlined a Florida Tea Party rally last week, his first political appearance.
In Las Vegas, Trump called his successful career “peanuts” compared to saving the country.
“If I run and I win,” he said, “we will have a rich country again, a great country again, and what I almost like most, we’ll be respected again.”
Treasure Island, now known as TI to many, is a Strip casino and resort that features a tropical pool, a variety of restaurants and Las Vegas' first resident Cirque du Soleil show.
Before even entering the casino, Treasure Island treats visitors and Strip passersby with a raucous and free pirate show, "Sirens at TI," each evening in the lagoon in front of the property.
Inside, guests will find a 95,000-square-foot casino with thousands of slot machines, a race and sports book, a poker room and plenty of table games. Treasure Island boasts a variety of dining options, from unique barbecue at Gilley's, to Vietnamese at Pho, to Carribbean with flair at Kahunaville.
After dark, head over to Senor Frogs for nightlife "where anything can happen," or pick up tickets to the visually stunning "Mystere" by Cirque du Soleil.
The Donald...
What a blowhard.
What's that thing on his HEAD?
A starving fox fur?
is it time to boycott treasure island???
The Donald should go on meds. There is something wrong with his head....could be the age.
How many people were there? What color? Average age? Teabaggers?
Face it, he has so much money nobody is going to "buy" him like they did Obama so he will do what he says. We really do need someone to run the country like a business, not a charity!
Donald Trump may be a publicity whore, but the things he is saying will resonate with people, and could turn this election season on its head. Getting screwed by OPEC, the Chinese, etc. These are things that will make him an attractive candidate to many Americans. I know people dismiss him as a hair-do gone bad and a zealous celebrity gone worse, but I don't think he can be discounted either. The American electorate is so depressed right now with high unemployment, high gas and food prices, and a crushing debt burden that I think they might be looking for something out of the box. A candidate that is not your typical politician, but a fire breathing populist who pushes American dominance and a screw you foreign policy. I'm just saying, he is not the joke everyone thinks he is. He better be taken seriously. He could end up on Pennsylvania Avenue if he continues this message of a more bullish America.
If the Donald gets off the birther rag, and starts making accurate statements about foreign trade, oil and policy, then he is serious about running and will be a force to contend with. But as long as he continues to make statements that Politifacts rates as "Pants on Fire" then this is just a marketing tool.
If he does run, and win the nomination, then I would expect him to move away from the TEA Party crowd and aim at the independents for the general campaign.
But first, we need to see if he is going to run.
Remember, he is a pitchman, a damn good one, he will say what it takes to sell the product.
The Donald will be finished if a "real" political candidate debates him. Of course Trump will retire from the political arena before anything like that would happen.
He has no platform of gov't, period! He's the male version of sarah palin! The more he opens his stupid mouth, the more he makes a fool of himself. EMPTY CANS CAN REALLY MAKE THE LOUDEST NOISE!Go to hell, you MF racist fool! We don't need a garbage like you here in america!
His own Casino filed for bankruptcy. That's not exactly Presidential material in my book.
Let the toupee run.
Expose the GOP sideshow.
Did you see Carnival Barker-in-Chief Trump blatantly lie to John King on CNN about a poll Trump made up?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O-87CAAI...
Meanwhile, he not only supported Obama's candidacy in 2008, he's also donated to Harry Reid and was a registered Democrat from 2001 to 2008.
Is Pawlenty the sole serious candidate for the GOP?
His true color finally came out... he is THE GREATEST RACIST OF ALL TIME! Karma will get you, old fart!
weak, pathetic and incompetent
sounds like Donald Trump is describing himself

What's really disappointing are the many elderly woman who are being taking in by the hate talk and misinformation from Trump. They are supporting a person who lies and disrepects the President of the United States of America. What we are seeing are people with deep seeded feelings and emotions toward the president, a president that is receiving special treatment like no other president. Why? What is the real answer, which is boiling just below the surface and ready to erupt? Is it Racism? Is Racism sprewing out in the open from the "older citizens" who no long feel they have to keep their true feelings hidden away. This group who sponsored Trump, and others like them needed a Donald Trump to open the door for them, to be who they truly art at their core. Are they really Racist? It so, are they Racist because we have the first black President of the United States? Cable news is now suggesting many people see Trump and people who believe him are, Racist? Really? Hard to believe that a person can turns 60, 70, 80 years old and openly support Racist talk and lies. Aren't these the mature years?
What is truly encouraging through all of this having the first Black President is, we do not see the young people in the crowds of the Tea Party, the Birthers, the Radical Congress and Senate Members! No young people in these groups, no young people talking and acting against the government. This is great, there is much hope for the next generation to have a color blind society. The older people, the older generation, old people--hating, Why?
Trump is doing well because he is doing what the American people want - - taking it to Obama, the way that most politicians are afraid to do. Can you imagine Trump debating Obama on the economy?? I'd pay for that on pay-per-view! At this point, they can put badger up against Obama - - and I'd gladly vote for the badger - - - Trump is a no-brainer... While he may not be a conservative or a true "Republican" (whatever that is) - - no one can doubt his love of country, and he obviously knows how to create jobs and commerce...
I sincerely hope Daniels gets in the race, at least he understands the value of infrastructure. None of the other Republicans so far are worth, well, you know.
Can America survive another spoiled rich boy as president? I don't think so.
I wouldn't vote for him if he was running for dog catcher.
Please run, Donald. I agree with Seth McFarland. You are the second worst thing to ever hit NYC.
And Obama tells the truth? NOT! Obama doesn't even respect this country! He is nothing but a community organizer that is way in over his head and does not know what to do!!!! Fumble, fumble, failure!
How sad for the Republicans if this is the best they can do in the way of a candidate.
If Trump were to run as an independent, it would all but guarantee a reelection for Barack Obama.
Just a freak show in a circus to amuse the public and the press in 2011. This too shall pass (mercifully).
"I could have been a contender"
Remember these fellas, Forbes, Perot, and how they thought they could just sign-up and take control of our country. Trump can't buy the White House like his other real state deals, he will be a "flash in the pan" candidate, oh and remember it is not his fault for loosing, forces (reality) beyond his control are at work against him.
Donald "you're fired"
Keep your eye on the prize, if he makes the ballot will he just take the Fed. campaign money and not run, ala-Perot. As the astute businessman he claims to be, why wouldn't he, it won't be the first time a candidate did that.
"The Donald" will just claim bankrupt, should he make it to the White House. He will allow the White House to be foreclosed on, what a wonderful future we can look forward to if he's Pres.
I guess Sharon Angle can pass the cow bell to Donald MORE COW BELL. Talk about a snake oil salesman Donald is the best. He wants to sell us a vacation to Hell and have us look foward to going lol. Another million aire in power just what we need. One actor (Reagan) was enough. Oboma was correct the republicans drove the bus off the road we pulled it out now they want to drive the bus again to the next ditch off the road. I can see Donald telling other heads of states YOU ARE FIRED!!! OH well only his hair dresser knows.
I hope the Donald runs as a Republican, but he won't run at all as soon as his stupid show is renewed and he'll have run only another scam on the gullible! LOL
Trump is looking for investors for his future projects. He is currently building an organization and mailing lists of supporters who, after the election will be getting brochures offering shares in his new projects.
Making money while delivering a public message is a technique developed in modern campaigning. Beck pushes his own investments and Palin made $21 million or so the first year after leaving office.
These types are 'cash patriots', combining politics with their priority, making money, while offering no solutions, and lots of complaints.
Bankrupt: 4 times, over $3 billion down the tubes.
Married: 3 times.
"Buy Trump, get Thumped".
Trump "disrespects the President?" What a concept! I guess the loons on the left upset with Osama Obama being "disrespected" forget how ruthlessly George W was savaged by them, what with the Nazi signs and targets placed upon his forehead. Yeah, poor Osama Obama is the first, and only, president to be shown "disrespect."
To the tune of 'Suspicious Minds' - Elvis
He's caught in a flop -
The hairs on his head -
Because the brain inside is DEa-ead, baby.
He can't go on, acting a clown
Because we see through his words
Like the hairs on his hea-ead.
Poor Donald Trump
Up on a stump
Drooling and ranting away at suspicious minds.
Definitely NOT Romney. I lived in Massachusetts for 18 years before leaving. Romney gave us all healthcare...bullsh&*^&*t. I'd take Trump over Romney any day. At least Trump has his own money and does not have to do favors for anyone. Obama is another Woodrow Wilson, and that po' boy got into office with Fed Reservist money. Obama was a nobody before they pumped him up. Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, OBama --- all Federal Reservist pig puppets. I'd take Trump before I let another Federal Reservist into the White House.
Lord help this country when media chunks out a nice section of the paper to give credence to reality stars like Sarah Palin and Donald Trump.
The National Enquirer is a limp old rag compared to mainstream media today.
Quit giving credence to grand standers and maybe we can get serious about our country's needs.
TRUMP is a hack. He does not show any presidential potential. I am so glad we now have a president that speaks as eloquent as he does. I am proud of our president and the way he always presents himself to us and to the world.
Choosing the right partner when going into business is important. Who would be the better business partner Obama or Trump? Despite some of his failures, 99% of Americans would choose Trump. But Obama is a better politician even if not chosen to be a business partner.
Wow, since we invaded Iraq for no valid reason we get to take their oil. Sounds like 19th Colonial foreign policy. If Donald saw the least possible opportunity to make money in China he would be there in a New York second, regardless of how they would treat him! The United States is not a business; it is not U.S, Inc. If the U.S. is to be run like a business that means the "bottom line" is the ultimate decision factor. Voters that feel a business person should run the U.S. should stop and consider that at some point in the future, some funding or some program they utilize may no longer exist because, it just isn't "profitable" to the government. What Trump and his ilk would like to see is a return to late 19th Century where Corporations were King and paid no taxes and the working people had to be satisfied with what crumbs they received, low wages, long hours, and no benefits. How does a conservative Christian Republican even consider voting for the Donald who has been married multiple times and is obviously an adulterer and a liar, because there is no way that is not a comb over!
I was at the event last night and it was very crowded and well received. We have to get to the issues which Trump touched on Libya, trade , China, creating jobs,Obama Care and having our country getting respect. You people can criticize him but he has business experience and been successful most of the time. What can BO say? What experience did he have by being a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER and being a senator for 2 years but was campaigning half of the time for PRES. As for his BIRTH certificate why didn't he release it 3 years ago? What about his school records? They still haven't been released? If a Republican candidate ran without releasing their records what would our liberals say? I think he is a breadth of fresh air and we better address the issues including Obama care or else this country is in a lot of trouble!!
Donald inherited his wealth and after many bankruptcies and scmming his creditors only then has he hung on.He is not a brilliant business man but a patheic loser.
I was wrong. He is far more entertaining than Foghorn Leghorn. What's really sad is so far he is the best the Republicans have to offer.
Issues that Trump touched on? What, invade Libya so we can "take their oil"? Trade, the Donald doesn't need to really do anything, people just need to start making the choice of not buying Made in China products regardless of cost, buy American! Please name one bill that the Republican House has passed to "create" jobs! Cutting taxes doesn't count because that was passed by a bipartisan vote. Name one bill the Republican House has passed to assist foreclosures? Trying to repeal Obama Care does not count because the "job killing" hyperbole is false, Health Care reform would actually create job in Health Care and related industries.
Trump is right about China - I will give him that.
China has stolen just about every trade secret we have worth stealing. Stealth, jet engine and missile technology, Nuke research, you name it! The Chi-Coms have raped every laptop and hard-drive from Boeing to Los Alamos; - they had moles with top secret security clearances working as defense contractors - Yet no interruption from that 'Special' branch of the federal government tasked with preventing intellectual espionage.
They do laugh at us"like Trump said.
That said, Trump cannot be a Dolt 5 days a week and want to be president the other 2.
"Trump also slammed Obama for snubbing Las Vegas in the past. 'Thirteen percent unemployment and we have a president saying don't go to Las Vegas,' he said."
Who is Trump to talk?
Let's go back in time a few years ago. When he was at the height of his piddling match with Mr. Steve Wynn about who was the better casino builder (which I guess has now been patched up since he's attending Mr. Wynn's wedding...they're both ultra right wingnuts, so now there's a commonality of purpose, I guess), Mr. Trump told the press here in Las Vegas that he would never invest in Las Vegas, that Las Vegas is dying, and that in about twenty years or so, Las Vegas would fall apart. Or words to that effect.
Then skip forward a few months. He announced building Trump Towers here!
It's all politics.
Even this speech he gave, complete with curse words, means he's doubling down on the nutzo talk. Because the birtherism he tried to inherit and run with has been blown to smithereens, he knows he has to act even crazier to please the idiots out there.
Unfortunately, some of them are here in Las Vegas. And he's appeasing them.
Folks, wake up! This is not the "Trump Doctrine." This is called "Trumpetism." Which means to act like Fidel Castro taking his shoe off and thumping it loudly on the podium at the United Nations. He's just trying to build himself up. He don't care about America. He cares about his show ratings.
The crap about letting people know in June if he's running (before it was May something or other...guess it's been moved up because he's having fun snowing people and he intends to milk this for all it's worth).
He's not running. Not as a Republican. Not as an independent. He's not going to release any information about his worth. He never has done that before in his entire life. Why would he do that now?
The guy is a SCAMpaigner, complete with his battalion of beauticians spending hours in a chair so they weave and coif his one strand of hair ever so careful around the top of his gourd.
But I do encourage Trump to show up in Las Vegas and blather to his heart's content. It makes us money. You gotta look for the silver lining in the cloud, you know....
We are being led by a Man who cannot even get a copy of his long form Birth Certificate. That is a major indication of incompetency. Go read all the BC documents. If you were the President of the US, would you have let this get as far as it did? and then ask for the correct documents in some groveling manner?
Obama is no genius. He is a puppet, very dumb one at that. It really is appalling how flat stupid these people are. With Bush you could see his stupidity easily, Obama is probably dumber but comes in a very deceptive package.
Giving these people credit for anything, good or bad, is pretty silly. Obama is far too stupid to get it.
Just another GOP carnival barker.
In my opinion, he is never going to release his financials.
He is a brilliant marketer. All this media attention, is going to push his show ratings through the roof. Is there anything type of product he is not shilling these days (steaks to mattresses)? Cameraman are you getting this?
He talks tough and although some of what he says has a slight ring of truth, if he became president with his attitude, he would make America the most hated country on the planet.
And if by some miracle he did become president, who would benefit the most other than the Donald? I would make a guess that it would be his already rich and greedy multinational corporations.
He will never win in a General Election, so if anyone out there wants Obama to have a 2nd term, then vote for Trump in the primary (that is if he does run).
Trump has just sold me. The prospect of Trump taking the Chinese to McDonald's for a state dinner is just too good to pass up. The Donald at the McDonald's.
As for America's leadership being "weak, pathetic and incompetent", it sounds like most of Trump's former management team has already found employment.
DICKERJD....................... Your reasoning is arrogant. We are going to solve the Chinese problem by not buying from the Chinese. Your a fool! Did u ever have a business/? I have a casino and I need 1000 TV's is there an American co selling TV's ? Your building a skyscraper and need concrete ,drywall Etc can American Co's compete against our Chinese manipulators? You keep on saying the Republicans have no ideas about creating jobs lowering taxes and reducing our deficit is a big start. Manipulating the currency like the Chinese have been doing is not fair and someone (other than BO) has to address the issue. Now go back to your frankfurter stand.
Because he never opened up any business Obama never felt the pain of filing for bankruptcy. Trump bit the dust four times but got up again to become a billionaire. A wise man said that those who don`t play the game should not make the rules.
What a load of crap! Just take the oil? We will have an even bigger problem in the middle east and the world if we just take the oil.
Jan Landy has the right angle on this joker - he'll never release his financials, but his ratings will rise and he'll help Vegas. Every little bit helps!
And then like Nikita Kruschev (not fidel Castro, Colin!) he'll bang his Italian loafers on the podium, stating what a dominant force he is!! But all he'll ever be is a joker, a fraud and a pitch man, and never a presidential contender.
If Trump runs and wins...the 1st thing he will do is figure out a way to claim bankrupcy for the U.S. and blow off trillions of debt and start over fresh because that is the Trump way...it's worked for him why not the U.S.
This means a lot coming from someone who is constantly building monuments to himself and self-promoting.
His buddy Wynn and the other "sue-happy" casino guy, don't they have business in China???
I wonder what the Bible thumper and LDS crowd thinks about the taking of the Lord's name in vain by the combover king?
Hey Donald! When you going to build the second tower? and how come the other one is 70% empty?
He only resonates with the low-rated hate talk radio station crowd.
Just thinking....Has anyone looked at the tag on the back of Trump's Signature Collection...I dont think that it says "Made in the USA"...
doubledown_deadender - "China has stolen just about every trade secret we have worth stealing. Stealth, jet engine and missile technology, Nuke research, you name it!"
Did they steal or buy trade secrets? Remember, American companies are outsourcing and looking to expand business in China and India. I wouldn't put it past a company selling anything for profit. As of now, sanctions placed on Iran are being broken by American companies making deals there.
Wow, looks like folks from both sides of the aisle see The Donald for what he really is, as shyster. That bragadocious blowhard, if elected, would certainly lead us into war.
To airweare: Thanks for the correction. Nikita Krushev. Not Fidel Castro.
That's what I get for typing before finishing my first cup of coffee....
Longtimevegan,
Your post does not make sense at all. It's very dumb. So everyone should vote for Obama, or if they don't, they are racist?
Your words
"Tea Party, the Birthers, the Radical Congress and Senate Members! No young people in these groups, no young people talking and acting against the government. This is great, there is much hope for the next generation to have a color blind society."
So young people should just sit around and say nothing? Let the government do whatever they want or feel? You sir or mam are crazy.
Great that the kids can look forward to the feeling hope. Like I hope I hit the lottery, I hope some rich hot girl picks me up, I hope I can buy get a new Lexus, etc etc.......
To a lot of posters that just call trump names, are you doing that because your still HOPING for your free car, house, and medical bills to be free? Keep up the hope LMAO
Thanks Anthony for your response,
Just to be clear, here is the entire post. You picked what you wanted, selected reading on your part.
"What is truly encouraging through all of this having the first Black President is, we do not see the young people in the crowds of the Tea Party, the Birthers, the Radical Congress and Senate Members! No young people in these groups, no young people talking and acting against the government."
There, I'm sure you can select your favorite lines out of this one. Stay positive my friend.
Also, people like Wynn get special tax breaks for his art collection, etc. It is just like GOV Perry in Texas, he whines about the Fed government in his book, now he wants government help from the Feds. Typical hypocrite. There should be no Federal AId to Texas for fires, or Southern States for tornados, only States that voted Democratic should get Federal AID.
@Longtimevegan,
In your response to anthonyjoevegas you forgot "the radical right wingers guide to misinformation" number three:
One - they can't do math
Two - they don't know American history
Three - they have poor reading comprehension skills
Four - they have no idea what is written in the Constitution
Five - they are capable of electing any insane Jane just to be contrary
Six - they will vote against their own best interest to prove a point
Seven - they believe Fox News is actually news
Eight - and some are Birthers, enough said on that subject
Dear Chazbean, yes, I have run a business. I have years of experience in Hotel and Restaurant management. In fact, I bet I could teach you a few things about running a Casino. I would bet there are TVs that are not made in China! How about South Korea or Japan or Europe? But of course, when the decision is the lowest cost, everyone buys China. Do you think that if the Donald implements his "Trump Doctrine" of U.S. made products, those products are going to be cheap? Now that I think about it, wouldn't requiring the purchase of U.S. made products be "big government inference"? Most economists say that the level of taxation and the deficit have no impact on job creation. Point if fact, during the Regan administration they cut taxes and increased government spending and under Clinton, higher taxes and a booming economy. All the Republican House is doing is advancing favorite Conservative causes like eliminating Planned Parenthood, NPR, and eliminating social programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Talk about arrogant, the Donald is one of most arrogant people in the World, just watch him as he talks and his interactions with others. Lastly, as usual from a person with a conservative viewpoint you have to resort to name calling because you can't support your position logically.
I'm torn. As Steve Wynn once said of Trump back when Wynn had the good judgment to dislike him, it really takes talent to go bankrupt owning three casinos. And there's the little matter of the civil rights case where he wouldn't rent, lease, or sell to people who, uh, look a bit like the Uppity One in the White Man's House, if you get my drift. But if anybody should know what it is to be pathetic, weak, and incompetent, it would be Trump.
Nah, I'm not torn. He's a racist, sexist, lying thug.
To Colin-
'Folks, wake up! This is not the "Trump Doctrine." This is called "Trumpetism." Which means to act like Fidel Castro taking his shoe off and thumping it loudly on the podium at the United Nations.'
I think you're mistaken here. I remember it being Nikita Kruschev (sp?) taking his shoe off and banging it on his desk while proclaiming 'We Will Bury You'
Thanks, PGelsman. Someone else already pointed that out already in a post before and I acknowledged my mistake.
I stand...er...sit corrected yet again.
I think with the Donald running you will finally see that Obummer is going to get that media anal examine that the media didn't do in 2008. If the Donald is going to get a media anal examine...you can count on that Obummer is going to get one too!
The Donald will expose the fraud that the Obummer really is.
I can't wait!!!!
Further proof that money can buy a lot of things, but it can't buy class.
The trashy side of the Donald finally comes out.What "little" respect I had for him before just when out the window with those @#$%#$# words.
Trump is undeniably naive, obviously delusional and just plain stupid if he think he's going to the White House to remedy all the problems and issues concerning this country. He should learn from former California governor, Arnold Schwarzeneggar that you can't go into politics like "gangbusters." Arnold went in like a lion and out like a lamb.
Trump is certainly right when he stated that Obummer's leadership is weak, pathetic and incompetent.
I like how Trump is taking it to the Obummer.
I'm happy to read some truth in a newspaper finally!
All the negative comments from the libs tells me they are scared of Trump !!
Trump is a much bigger figure than Obama and with a hell of a lot more sense.
Yes Rick, the dummycrats are scared to death of Trump. A whole lot of hate here! How did you like that fraud of a long form birth certificate that he hoisted upon America?
Donald if president could host the greatest reality show on Earth. He could question key government officials and if the answers do not sound right Donald could FIRE them on the spot. Each week there would be a general or department head on the show begging not to be FIRED. The ratings would go through the roof.
Longtimevegan, your welcome! I guess your still cool with people not questioning the government. After all, things are great.
VernosB,
What is the liberals version of the radical left wingers guide to misinformation? I need another laugh today. You probaly will not answer that question anyway. 1+1 = 2. Cool. Well I do not qualify for the radical right wing guide to misinformation. Does that make me at least an conservative? I think of FOX news, the same as MSNBC and CNN. All three are right and wrong at times.
DICKERJD..... U never ran a Casino or even came near a casino. That being said u are very selective with your credit. Wasn't it Clinton's presidency that we had a Republican congress?. Wasn't it under your Clinton administration that he had the banks make loans with minimum or no down payments for houses? The point that Trump was making about having to purchase from China or Korea or Europe is that nothing is manufactured here because of the high cost of making things. Everything being equal if we had a free market ( without China manipulating their currency) the USA could be competitive. The Republican party is not destroying Medicaid and Medicare. If obama care is not reversed then u will see Medicare disappear and costs increase . Just ask people who live in Mass with ROMNEY care. In case u didn't notice we have a 14TRILLION deficit and it goes up daily by the millions just to service the debt. If we don't cut costs from entitlements , defense , Pork, reducing government workers we will be like Greece and Brittan , Spain. Before leaving you criticize Reagan for raising taxes. In due respect under his administration we had millions of jobs created plus he decreased payroll taxes. Don't say the Republicans are eliminating Planned Parenthood . They are not but reducing money for ILLEGAL ABORTIONS! How about address millions of wasted money for Accorn? Now go back to your frankfurter stand.
If he wanted to pollute the air in Vegas why not spew at his "own" hotel,...now they had to fumigate Treasure Island. It would take a pompus ass such as The Donald to recognize "weak" "pathetic" & "incompetent" since they are all descriptions of himself.
Go away Donnie,...your 15 minutes of fame and potty mouth are over,...and take that thing on your head with you
"All the negative comments from the libs tells me they are scared of Trump !! Trump is a much bigger figure than Obama and with a hell of a lot more sense."
This sounds very, very familiar.
Oh, swap out "Trump" for "Palin" and we've heard it all before!
A. C. Nielsen sweeps dates for 2011: May 2011 = April 28 - May 25, 2011.
What day is today? In addition to sweeps, it's the day that Trump is playing everyone for fools to drive ratings for his show so he can make more money off of it.
Don't spend time worrying about what politician is going to get your vote, or which one you hate - none of them care about you. You are wasting your time. Spend that time, time you would otherwise wasted, figuring out how to put money in your pocket, by saving dollars you already have or earning dollars that you don't. Or do both.
Trump does that. Seem to work well for him. I recommend the rest of you give it a try, too. I'm getting back at it myself, right now. Don't join Trump or Obama. Join me.
Trump is an oil fish salesman, a carnival barker, the president of Hair Club for men... all rolled up into one.
He's George W. Bush on steroids and without the neuroleptics. He's a disaster.
Please run, Mr. Trump!
Love him or hate him. He gets things done!
It was a very interesting event. I had front row seats to see Trump speak. Here is a video I took of the first 15 minutes of his speech:

Tune in to about 8:30 to see him cuss out OPEC.
I also wrote a short review of the event it on my website complete with the video I took:

Regardless of your opinion of him, you have to give him credit for being an entertainer and saying things that people want to hear.
Gas_Passer - "I think with the Donald running you will finally see that Obummer is going to get that media anal examine that the media didn't do in 2008. If the Donald is going to get a media anal examine...you can count on that Obummer is going to get one too!"
Obviously you don't realize there is nothing to dig up about Obama, or else they would have by now, instead of the World Daily Net "manufacturing" evidence.
Are you one of those pull my finger guy?
Now that Obamas shown his birth certificate, Trump has to show his tax returns.
Its really annoying when someone who inherited their money, or got their start from family wealth brags how smart and sucessful they are. He's not even entertaining anymore, Trump your fired.
See the Extreme Left cannot properly refute Trump. For to do so, they would have to admit their entire Administration is based on stealing wealth from savers and redistributing for Free to Wall Street and Central Banks.
So instead they will cite the obvious, Trump is a weirdo, duh, boring.
Check the date that TARP legislation was enacted, stephenrblv. Hint: It happened under the previous administration.
He's no worse than what's in the White House and Congress. Time for a non politico to get a chance
George Soros and his friends bought the last presidential election and are still running the country. I don't see anything wrong if Trump wants to spend his money to put pressure on Obama. Will he run, probably not, would he win, not a chance, but politics is a lot more fun with him around.
Just got off the phone from China, they will be nationalizing the Wynn property there tomorrow...good work Donald.
Trump's self-serving blather has about the same value as stock in his delisted Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc.: $0.00
Success breeds failure.
Wasn't The Donald going to shut down Vegas at one time? How did that work out for him? BIG talker. He got rich by being bailed out by the very same government he now rails against. Let's see the tax returns Donnie boy!!!
Trump has LOST IT! He is nothing but a LOUD MOUTHED, arrogant, New Yorker, who loves the limelight and the camera lens. He is argumentative, and probably the WORST possible interview subject for most A list interviewers. He is a liar and truth stretcher. Who gives a F about Obama's birth certificate, huh Donald, who? Go back to your coop on the Upper East Side, and shut your pie hole!
while i am just plain tired of all the garbage that politicians typically spew, instead of being honest and straightforward with the American people, the "Donald" TRIES to look different.
But while I like a lot of what he has to say about the bs that we get from our existing political leadership, he proved to be just another one of those who doesn't tell the truth...he spoke of his great success at Trump International in Vegas. Selling less than 70% of the units available for sale is not a success at all...simply a failure. 929 units remain unsold at the Trump in Las Vegas...I am sure Trump and Ruffin have enough money to "carry" the investment until one day it is a success...building the building and selling less than 30% of the units when the proforma looked for 100% of sales to make a successful project doesn't fit the bill.
@Barr, TARP (Democratic Congress) was one phase of the massive transfer of wealth, it is ongoing. Interest rates are NEGATIVE (below inflation), and have been for at least the last year. Because of these rates we have unrest across the Globe. Prices are soaring completely the result of the weak Dollar and negative US interest rates. This situation will change temporarily in June when QE2 expires. Once the SM crashes 10 to 15% in a week they will start the whole theft cycle anew (QE3 or worse). Obama will cite the usual Global Warming or some other non-starter for why everything is going to hell and thus the need to save the too big too fails again.
He comes to town quite often and now its news...go figure.
He stays at the Wynn because he cannot stay at his own Trump Tower due to the pending lawsuits against him from the condo purchasers!
Imprecation by a world leader is tantamount to Hari-kari (SIC).
Is this what we want in a leader? Can't get no respect; where is Rodney Dangerfield when you need him.
Trump lost on the birther issue -- in a big and embarrassing way. With his outrageous and expletive laden speech at Treasure Island all he is doing is what some gamblers do when they lose -- double down. I used to think his huge ego was amusing, now it seems like a full blown personality disorder.
