CNN Blitzer Trump Interview: Economy Does Better Under Dems
Though he was cagey, he said (when pressed) that he identifies more with the Democratic Party. Shocking!

2. Yeah, but did you hear Wolfie bring up Carter and make it sound
like only Clinton was good on economy. Trump responded by saying that the Repugs have had some disasterous times w/ economy.

Ha ha!

3. Wolfie is Bushapologist NUMERO UNO.
And he even fought off Candy Crowley for that title.

4. Statistical fact
Not just Trump's opinion.

The book Big Lies by Joe Conason illustrates this quite nicely.

8. Yes, pg, that's why Howard Dean was shouting it from the rooftops.
It's a myth that repugs are fiscal responsible.

Hence, my sig.

11. In fact, not just "the economy" but "their" economy
i.e., the stock market.

The most reliable indicator for predicting a bull market is a Democrat in the White House.

I call it "their" economy because it is often totally disconnected from the economic reality that the rest of us have to live: employment, housing costs, cpi, etc.

5. Maybe he can "class" up the Democratic Party
Nothing screams class like high-priced escorts running the DNC and a gold-plated LeerJet moving Kerry across the country.

6. Good to hear ... especially since *The Don* is getting so much attention
in the media these days.

Ok, I hate the term ... "The Donald" but I'm going on little sleep right now ... :P

12. Hmmm
I guess having money doesn't make one "brain dead" to the casualties of these "greedy" times. I like "The Apprentice," and watch it faithfully, however, I have to say, while I watch it, I OFTEN wonder how "Trump" feels or thinks about the current "economy" since he seems to be doing so well. From what I see of him on interviews he really does seem like a caring person.

However, I DO remember the "Marla Maple" days and I thought he was callous ass for cheating on Ivana.

Amazing how time weaves it's "objectivity."

14. Trumpy was somewhat upset with the Clinton witchhunt/impeachment.
He really doesn't want the present company in too much power. I think he really needs to start working with us.

16. I'd love to see that made into an ad.
Trump could do a fabulous ad re: Bush as an apprentice.

I was quite surprised to hear him state so positively that Dems are better for the economy.

17. Shook up Republican Friends
I was amazed the impact it had my republican friends. They are really thinking now -- as they had bought the trickle down stuff and the republicans being the adults.
