What I think Trump is REALLY up to.
I think he's carrying water for the bankers - taking the mantle of the freeper right wing birther wing of the party to clear the way for Mittens, or more likely, John E Bush of Florida.

Trump attracts the nut-jobs, while the GOP runs a more moderate appearing person who gets the regular GOP vote and gets nominated. Then, in comes The Donald - he throws his support onto the chosen one and the birthers will have to vote for him/her in order to retain their clout with the powers.

The Donald disappears from politics, having served his masters well. Next time he needs to borrow a few billion for a new building, oh lookee here, easy loans!

What do you think?

1. Either that or it's the last stand for a wanna be who is a has been with a stupid reality show.
Though, really, putting stupid in front of a reality show is redundant.

3. I think he is an ego maniac who thinks he can do a better job than Obama.
It's always about him.

4. I've been playing devils advocate...He works for the Obama campaign secretly.
The mission is to put the Republican party in disarray. A relative unknown in politics---like Perot, starts tossing around a bit of money and making deals. Basically he's not a serious candidate who then takes a good number of voters from the "real" contenders like Pawlenty and Romney. Sadly everyone else is a clown like Palin, Bachmann, Gingrich, and so on and so forth. Further more...Trump can run as a third party candidate IF he doesn't get a seat. A waste of money yes----but it's okay in the end Obama wins since he pulls the numbers from the Republican candidate.


-My addition to conspiracy theories.

7. Trump has no plan. I doubt that he knows what he will do tomorrow, let alone
next year.
