Nope because I think Ivana cleared things up in her statement yesterday lol, here it is:

“I have recently read some comments attributed to me from nearly 30 years ago at a time of very high tension during my divorce from Donald. The story is totally without merit. Donald and I are the best of friends and together have raised three children that we love and are very proud of. I have nothing but fondness for Donald and wish him the best of luck on his campaign. Incidentally, I think he would make an incredible president.”

Ivana Trump

His ex-wife once accused him of rape but now has backed away from the comnents. I guess we will never know why his ex-wife backed away from the comments or if he is a rapist or not but based on previous statements from his ex-wife it is certainly possible.

Comedy ????

Lets take a look at his comedic act.....

--'Strenghtening the US/Mexico border

---Abolishing Obama Care and giving lower income people the ability to recieve Hospital treatment

---- Bringing back overseas manufactured products to US soil thus creating more jobs

--- Targeting illegal immigrants and deporting them

---'Tougher immigration laws for those wanting citizenship

--- Tougher terrorism tactics

---Get rid of career politicians who merely seek self serving policies.

You keep saying you dont like him and amuses you...but you give no concrete reasons why.
Maybe strong personalities scare you and thus you keep saying you like Hillary.

Hillary is hillarious and has no substance.
But she appeals to people of like minds.

You also stated he doesnt have a plan.
Again you are mistaken.
He has many plans.
You just chose to ignore them.

I have never heard of a woman making exaggerated claims during a divorce process in order to obtain more money, have you?

In any case she made a statement and put that report to bed immediately, much to your displeasure, I am sure. Watch Trumps poll numbers rise in the coming weeks!

It seems that was yesterdays news and main focus.
Its not even mentioned today.
Its just more people grasping at straws to malign him.
And Trump is taking legal action against that journalist who started the story. And Im sure he'll bury the chump!!

The country IS bankrupt.
And you can thank Ronald Reagan for the beginnings of that when he let the banks write their own tickets with no government security watch and it all came crashing down with the 2008 stock market crash and recession.
And furthermore.....Obama has hired those same people on his staff who were responsible for said crash

This pretty much sums up my hinking about Trump the candidate, from the Dallas Morning News. I don't necessarily disagree that he doesn't have a couple points, but.....

Editorial: Donald Trump is a carnival barker who confuses shouted insults with leadership

The worst of Donald Trump, the celebrity-billionaire-turned-presidential-candidate, was on full display this past weekend during rambling rants on immigration, media elites, GOP presidential rivals and whatever else popped into his head.

He doubled down (or trebled down?) on his previous comments that Mexico “sends” killers and rapists across the border. Among other things, he promised to fine Mexico $100,000 for each person crossing illegally into the United States, an idea as ludicrous as it is insulting.

It is tempting to dismiss Trump as this election cycle’s Michele Bachmann or Herman Cain, early flame-throwers whose incendiary rhetoric didn’t withstand serious scrutiny. Trump is a carnival barker who conflates shouted insults with leadership, and points to his wealth as his credibility scorecard whenever he’s challenged. Mr. Trump, bombastic rhetoric is not a policy and it is divisive.

While he claims to speak for a “silent majority” of Americans who are disenchanted with the country’s direction, Trump does it with a scolding demagogic cynicism that mostly inflames passions. This is a real threat to the field of GOP candidates and the country he claims to to love.

For the moment, at least, he’s sucking all the oxygen out of the room without offering a single solution to any issue. That is not the way the GOP wins back the White House. Arizona Sens. John McCain and Jeff Flake, both Republicans, didn’t bother to attend Trump's rally. Flake called Trump’s remarks “intolerant” and “inaccurate,” and said Trump would hurt Republicans as they attempt to appeal to a broader demographic of voters. Even Rupert Murdoch has challenged him on his immigration comments.

We get it. There is short-term political gold in rallying against “media elites,” whose criticism he wears as a badge of honor, or celebrating his “martyrdom” when others push back from Trump’s name calling. Trump may be building his brand, but his antics aren’t good for a party that needs to redefine itself.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Trump are in a virtual dead heat at the top of the Republican presidential hopefuls, well ahead of the rest of the pack. That has given Trump latitude to define the discussion, and probably will get him a place on stage when the GOP debates begin next month. Donald Trump is not going to be president or win the Republican nomination. However, he could convert his rhetoric into an independent run that siphons votes from the eventual GOP nominee.

Trump has tapped into an anti-establishment sentiment in the most crass ways possible, throwing raw meat to crowds. But that‘s not how national elections are won or how this country should be run.

Trump has the bully pulpit, but for now revels in being just the bully.

Oko

Your post #346 only reinforces his stature.

Dont forget.....people said he would fade away soon after he started his bid.
And now people are shocked at his success.
And he's still gaining momentum.
The fact is......he is making a huge impact and dwarfing those of lesser substance.
He's definitely a force to reckon with !!

TRUMP for Prez !!!!!

How's he going to find the funding for this?
---- Bringing back overseas manufactured products to US soil thus creating more jobs
and violate countless free trade agreements, alienate the largest holder of US debt and have a negative effect on real exchange rates in the process
--- Targeting illegal immigrants and deporting them
how?
---'Tougher immigration laws for those wanting citizenship
Becoming a US citizen isn't a cake walk, new citizens know more about the US then most born there
--- Tougher terrorism tactics
fighting fire with fire leaves a burnt wasteland. Sacrificing freedom for security
---Get rid of career politicians who merely seek self serving policies.
How?

Where does one find his plans for working with the other branches of government to get his way? Or would there be even more centralization of power in the executive branch?

I don't dispute that, but he's peed off a pretty large chunk of the Republican party, and there's about 4 Dems alive who would vote for him, so I can't see how he could ever be elected or be more than a side show.

Not really feeling better. Damn clowns were nibbling at my toes all night.

If he has a plan that is building, what constitutes its foundation?

Defend his positions, or carry on with your blind faith. there's no real discussion as to how or why Trump would be a good president in this thread, or what he would accomplish in 4 years to improve the position of the US international or domestically. All I keep seeing is a couple of guys with a big man crush for a celebrity offering little in the way of substance.

As to the bolded section, "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain"

Stay tuned WF.....stay tuned !!!!!

As a big businessman ..... he has the mindset to help the US as a politician.

Dont forget he has many political friends and dealings with them.
He's far from being a newby of no substance.

so he's against career politicians, but don't worry he has a lot of political friends... really?

A big businessman who's filed chapter 11 how many times while walking away with more then he started with... yet he's against politicians who work towards personal gain.

Would it not be comical if he won in the US and Mulcair won in Canada. I can just imagine their fishing trip discussions.
