Trump endorsed McCain in 2008

I'm just posting this to get it out there. I didn't remember who Trump supported, and it would have been fun if it was Obama.

Trump endorses McCain on Larry King

Donald Trump, the flamboyant New York magnate, said on CNN’s “Larry King Live” on Wednesday night that he is supporting Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for president.

Trump, never shy with his opinions, went on to say that McCain appears to be winning, and that Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) should have chosen Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) as his running mate.

1. So would have have supported Obama if he had chosen Hillary
as his running mate? Or supported Hillary if she had gotten the nomination. I know Trump is quite fond of the Clintons. But he would say and do anything to get attention.

2. What an idiot. As SoS, you can easily argue that she's in a more powerful position than VP.

4. Trump has a pattern of seeing who's ahead (Winning!) and then supporting the frontrunner.
He likes to be seen with winners.
