Do you agree with Lawrence O'Donnell?
He just stated emphatically again that Trump WILL NOT RUN. He's done this several times before. I have to admit I enjoy when he does this. He just sounds so sure of it. (I also like the way he calls him that silly little man).

Anyway...he's going to talk about it again in a few minutes if you've missed his pronouncements on the topic before.

3. I don't think Trump will run, either.
He's just doing this for attention, and to boost ratings for his stupid show. He has an ego that is unbelievable and it's getting bigger every day thanks to the media reporting about him constantly. If the media wouldn't give him so much attention, he would just fade into the oblivion.

4. One of the reporters interviewed on NPR said to just wait til NBC announces its fall lineup.
The apprentice crap will still be there. He said Trump could never live onthe $400,000 / yr he would make as Presdient.

That small dicked schmuck would do or say anything to have his picture and voice in the media.

6. O'Donnell says that, too.
He ridicules the show, even though it's on the same network.

8. I don't think he'll run either. I think Lawrence is having
fun "poking him with a stick" seeing if he'll respond. :evilgrin:

9. He'll run as an Indie on the Birther platform exclusively.
He'll say lots of other stupid things that birthers also believe in. He'll pull 5-10% of the Republican vote, thus assuring Obama of an easy 2012 victory.

Thanks, The Donald!

13. I'd also like to thank The Donald
for the comic relief, something sorely missing lately.

18. I hate it when he's called The Donald.
We can have the President, the SoS etc. But you can' have the Donald. It honors The Son-of-a-B.

11. I don't believe Trump's rumblings are for real
They guy is simply positioning himself to test the waters. But he won't run. I wish he would, if he took the nomination I think Obama would clean his clock and the republicans in other races as well.

12. Yes. I agree with Larry.
Donald Trump is nothing but a professional wrestler in a suit. He yells at the camera, spitting challenges to his purported opponents but ultimately, all his bluster is about selling tickets to the show.

14. Absolutely - as O'Donnell said trump's fragile ego can't stand the thought
That he would get his ass kicked big time and become the biggest joke ever.

I don't think he has the money he says he does, he NEEDS the big bucks he gets from that POS TV show to promote the facade that he's loaded.

Trump is living proof of the old HL Mencken observation that nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.

15. Maybe he's hoping Trump will get angry at O'Donnell, and that will make Trump run
Trump is one of those many candidates with high favorable numbers among GOP, but high negatives among everyone else. He is one of the Democrats' dream candidates.

The media just "lubs" their Donald.

20. I just wonder if trump is trolling for a new wife
He could be like newt and get all Patriotic and then needs to lust after a new woman to handle all that Patriotism

23. then O'Donnell should shut the fuck up with all the Trump talk, already.
I wish he'd focus on something relevant, you know, like someone who actually is running for president.
