FOX NEWS: DON TRUMP to announce today at 11 AM EST

Why so desperate to change the subject?

Stop trying so hard to make it about the Clintons and stay on topic.

You said that business failures, Trump and Fiorina would make good prez and veep. You said Trump would know how to deal with the Russians and Chinese.

Why in the world would anyone make such patently idiotic statements?


Because they are true. He dealt with them successfully in his own business where his own money was at stake and he could deal with them successfully as president.

As to idiotic statements, you are the sole winner in that category.

He developed real estate in New York City when it was uncertain if we were going to go the way of Detroit under Democrat stewardship.

He converted the near bankrupt Commodore Hotel into NYC's first Hyatt and build arguably the highest end residential property at the time, Trump Tower.

He tried to revive Atlantic City, but could not overcome the decades of neglect from the City and State.

He has a real background as a businessman in a brutally tough and competitive environment and a better resume than" Organized Communities in Chicago, wrote 2 autobiographies and went to Harvard Law and never heard about Judicial Review"
Believing a guy who is good at accumulating wealth can run a country is an Argument from Authority Fallacy.

We can clearly see Trump is really stupid about a lot of things.

Believing a guy who doesn't know how many states are in the USA to the Nearest 10 sure worked out well.

It's not a logical fallacy, it's called making an informed decision. Trumps background includes far more real work experience than Hillary or any Republican Senator can accumulate in 10 lifetimes

Trump developed in NY, what did Hillary do, trade Cattle futures?
"Real work experience" does not automatically translate to working with Congress to getting things done. It's an argument from authority fallacy.

Trump might know how to get a casino built, that does not mean he knows how to get Congress to pass a budget. Especially those of the opposite party, and especially since he can't fire them.

Zero government experience is a huge drawback. Just ask Obama.

You keep repeating "Argument from authority" and it reminds me of "Inconceivable!" from Princess Bride. Using your standard only a US President can run for President because he's the only one who has experience dealing with the US Congress. See how moronic that is?

You think the lenders and city agencies and contractors were all lining up to help Trump get his properties built with no adversity? LOL

Obama already set the "Talk to the Hand" Standard of dealing with the opposite party, whom he labeled "the enemy". Trump would be 8 trillion times better than Obama and you voted for him --twice

Nope. A Governor has experience working with a legislature. A Senator or a Congressman has experience working with his fellow representatives to get legislation passed.

It is very, very difficult for even the best of leaders to ride herd on Congress.

A guy who owns a casino has none of this experience.

Nor does a community organizer. Look how Obama has gotten his horse repeatedly raped by a recalcitrant Congress for the past six years.

Trump would be stampeded by Congress.
 
Source Trump to declare 9 billion in assets during expected presidential announcement Fox News

FOX is also reporting that Trump is going to disclose holdings of 9 Billion in personal income.

Of course, you never know with Don Trump. He has teased this pretty heavily, saying that today is going to be a very important day. So, I'm not willing to go out onto a limb and say he is definitely announcing his candidacy for President, and if he does, there is nothing to rule out him announcing as an Independent, though I suspect he would try for the Republican nomination.

In 2 1/2 hours, we will all know...

If he does announce for President, he would then be the 12th Republican candidate (assuming he is announcing as a Republican) and the 16th candidate overall.

[emoji14]opcorn:


Discuss, but quickly. Will he announce for President, or is this all just smoke and mirrors, ala the past from Don Trump?

This news is like hearing that Scarlett Johannson (if you are a guy) is coming to your house and will strip naked, but you know you'll never be able to sleep with her.

Heard parts of his speech. I hope he's serious this time. I'd vote for him. Other candidates need to get serious about securing the border before they get my vote. Secure American jobs for Americans. Increase tariffs on countries that don't pay an american living wage. Lets save our working poor.

Recalcitrant Congress? Obama got ever major piece of legislation he wanted starting with the Failed Stimulus, and ObamaCare. We don't eveN do budgets anymore! Obama couldn't get PAA passed BECAUSE OF HIS OWN PARTY!

Do you just post stuff because you like clicking on the keyboard?
 
Trump would probably be a good president. He understands how to run a business, how to deal with the Chinese and Russians, and how to balance a budget. He is also not a career politician which gives him more points over lifetime pols like HRC and Jeb.

Trump/Fiorina---------------that ticket would fix the US economy in 6 months.

Make that Florina/Trump

He announced.

The GOP primary is shaping up to be a bigger conga line of freaks than 2012. All we need now to make it complete is for Michele Bachmann, and Howard Cain to announce. And dare I hold out hope that Alan Keyes may once again throw HIS oversized hat into the ring? It's almost too much to hope for.

All I can say at this point is BRING ON THE MOSH PIT!
 
Trump is the first candidate I can vote for instead of against.
I'm still undecided about Walker or Carson. They need to speak out like Trump just did.

Rubio, Rand, Ron, one other are for more immigration so they won't get my vote. Reserve immigration for those with money or with jobs. No more low wage skills immigrants period.

Ryan lost my vote with his bullshit trying to pass this TPP bullshit without letting us look at it first. So **** him too.

Jeb and Rubio are for amnesty, so **** them too.

Immigration and jobs control my vote.

My favorite Dump Truck lie was when he pretended to know about world trade and claimed Japan always beats us and you can't sell a Chevy in Japan. GM has been selling Chevys in Japan since 1915. It has nothing to do with tariffs either! Japan has NO TARIFFS on imported cars!!!!! GM simply does not make cars the Japanese want to buy, like right hand drive vehicles.

TRUMP: WHEN DID WE BEAT JAPAN AT ANYTHING? THEY SEND THEIR CARS OVER BY THE MILLIONS -- AND WHAT DO WE DEAL? WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW A CHEVROLET IN TOKYO? IT DOESN'T EXIST, FOLKS. THEY BEAT US ALL THE TIME.

Why GM struggles in Japan

Why GM struggles in Japan
Company's biggest dealer: 'Lack of effort,' not trade barriers, keeps sales minuscule

GM faces plenty of hurdles in Japan, but so-called nontariff barriers are not among them, Ide says.
U.S. trade negotiators and auto executives often point to nontariff hurdles, such as currency manipulation or onerous local regulations, as hurting imports' chances in Japan.
But Ide says those are merely excuses to preserve America's own 25 percent tariff on imported trucks, the so-called chicken tax, and another 2.5 percent tariff on foreign passenger cars imported from Japan.

Japan, by contrast, imposes no tariffs on imported autos.
"There are no nontariff barriers," he said. "It's crazy. The U.S. side needs some reasoning to continue the tax barriers."
The German brands have flourished in Japan, even as the Detroit 3's fortunes fade. Their downfall, says Ide: "lack of effort."
Case in point: GM's dearth of right-hand-drive vehicles configured to Japanese roads. The Chevrolet lineup here has just two right-hand-drive vehicles, the Sonic small car and Captiva compact crossover, while the premium Cadillac line has none.
"We have some customers who are interested in GM cars, but it's a big turnoff," Ide said. "We are waiting for right-hand drive.

Safeguarding one's civil rights is just as important as the economy, if not more so.

You need to learn how to prioritize. Let's take an example.....

What is more important, breathing or heartbeat? If a person has had an accident and needs immediate emergency treatment, which one is more important?

The answer is: Neither. Neither is more important, both are equally important. Without one, the other is useless.

But, that does not preclude the ability to prioritize. In this instance, the first priority is breathing.

One might suggest you need to realize that both parties are totally out to lunch fiscally. We've been promised dynamic leadership on the economy by every candidate for about 3 decades now. One thing that I have learned is that there is only so much a President can do to fix an economy. The rest is up to Congress and frankly a small modicum of luck.

Prioritizing is great. I loved McCain's idea of building more nuke plants. Hated his idea for staying in Iraq come hell or high water. We all do it. However, pinning your priority to what a candidate says he'll do as President when it comes to the economy seems to be a rather inert selection since, in reality, she/he cannot do much on that front.
then you have no idea what affect regulations have on the economy.
Congress has nothing to with regulations set by the EPA and other agencies run by presidential picks.
 
Trump would probably be a good president. He understands how to run a business, how to deal with the Chinese and Russians, and how to balance a budget. He is also not a career politician which gives him more points over lifetime pols like HRC and Jeb.

Trump/Fiorina---------------that ticket would fix the US economy in 6 months.

You....you do realize that he and his companies have gone bankrupt 4 times, right? Nothing says 'knows how to run a business' like filing for bankruptcy.

As for foreign policy experience, I think the words you're looking for are 'jack' and 'shit'.

I tend to agree with you but recall that Trump didnt do all that stuff just by himself. He negotiated constantly and fiercely with insurers, bi
Whatsa matta, willfully obtuse boi? You don't like your own stupid little word games with people's names now?

Who's Maobama?
The man is Donald Trump. He has always been called Donald Trump. Ever since I first heard about him destroying the medallions on the Macy's building in Manhattan he's been Donald Trump. To call him Don Trump is like calling Walter Cronkeit "Walt". No one did that in public.
Maobama is an insulting nickname for Barack Obama, based on his similarity to Chairman Mao.


Are you upset about something the Donnie Trump said?
Never heard of him. Why should I be upset?
Iz widdle wabbi upset?

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!

Actually, you can fill the lungs with air all you like, it's going nowhere if the heart isn't beating.

You can have a situation where the heart is beating and no breathing, but you will never see a situation where there is breathing and no heartbeat.

Wow!

Congress passed ObamaCare.

Congress passed Frank-Dodd.

Congress passed the Commodities Futures Modernization Act.

Congress passed the Financial Services Modernization Act.

Do you really think those had no great impact on our economy?!?

And who do you think created the EPA? Congress! At Nixon's urging.

If Congress doesn't like the regulations written by the EPA, they can revoke its very existence.

Check and balances.
