    Donald Trump to run for president in 2016 - BBC News

    America, I beg of you, for the sake of your own country and the free world, don't vote for him for a giggle.

    It's difficult to even take him seriously as a candidate. His announcement was a bunch of political ramblings rolled up into an announcement.

    Good God, who will the Republicans trot out next?

    He is easily one of the most repugnant people on earth. I thought the Republican primary was a joke long before this; now it definitely is.

    I can't wait for the train-wreck that the debates will be. If nothing else, this might be even more of a farce than last time, which I thought would be hard to top, given the groping Herman Cain, the rabid Michelle Bachmann; the loopy, drunk acting Rick Perry; the sweater-vest sporting Rick Santorum; the racist Ron Paul; and even Romney, who looked and acted sorta like The Millionaire, from Gilligan's Island.

    A sad reflection on America, this ship of fools.

    I don't know all that much about Trump's previous presidential hints but if we took everyone for their ramblings then we would see everyone as a complete moron. Boris Johnson (who I absolutely adore!) is famous for his idioms and remarks but has been an outstanding mayor, not only for London but for securing huge investment for surrounding boroughs, who by definition he has no duty to.

    He is just hilarious, even the people standing behind him are in creases :roflmao:

    Sometimes the New York Times makes me so happy, with it's acerbic, cutting language:

    "It seems a remote prospect that Republicans, stung in 2012 by the caricature of their nominee, Mitt Romney, as a pampered and politically tone-deaf financier, would rebound by nominating a real estate magnate who has published books with titles such as, “Think Like a Billionaire” and “Midas Touch: Why Some Entrepreneurs Get Rich — And Why Most Don’t.” "

    Not to mention, Trump is a huge racist, and has never let up on the whole dumb birther idea that Obama is an evil, foreign-born Muslim. The man is a bully, a con-man and a fear-monger; I'd sooner elect a rabid wart-hog as president.

    He is just doing it for attention of course and he very well can. But his announcement was better than Bush's. Bush on the other hand had a demonic look on his face and than smiled awkwardly every know and than. I dislike Donald but he did a way better speech.

    What's really horrible is how much he plays on hate and fear: Fear of blacks, fear of foreigners, fear of gay people, fear of anything that threatens the staus quo of wealthy, white males.

    Then there is the fact he was born rich, and pretends to be self-made.

    Born on third base, but thinks he hit a triple, as the saying goes.

    He's a consummate snake oil salesman, but is that what any sane person would want?

    As some with a really odd mix of political views, I never seem to like any of the candidates.

    Not only that but he's bankrupt his businesses 3 times and lobby's to get his net worth inflated. He insists he's worth 6 or 7 billion when in reality he's worth maybe 400-600 million, he actually tried suing an ex business partner for exposing this.
