Idiots are idiots. Trump can become a D today, and he'll still be an idiot. Once you become an idiot, non-idiocy is just not such an easy thing to attain!

Trump is a smart guy but he does say some dumb things, we all do from time to time. Trump did have some advantages in life thou being a trust fund kid would have been fun for me but I had to work for everything I make.

Trump may be a lot of things, but he is not an idiot. Moderator cut: off-topic

I would and faster than you can say Trump Tower!

I have thought the Donald to be a dolt for more than 25 years his being a Republican - while logical in this day and age - has absolutely nothing to do with it.

By what metric? Wealth? Being wealthy hardly has any real correlation to intelligence, especially when your father is Fred Trump. Education? Plenty of wholly unremarkable and incapable people have graduated from ivy leagues.

I say let his actions speak for themselves: numerous absolutely idiotic business blunders coupled with consistently backwards remarks. That's enough for me.

Actually, he sort of is. I thought he was an idiot then also.

"Billionaire Donald J. Trump, an early presidential favorite among tea party activists, has a highly unusual history of political contributions for a prospective Republican candidate: He has given most of his money to the other side."

Trump's only valid point is that Laguardia is an embarrassment and needs an overhaul.
