I don't have a problem with Trump running for president. It's his right as a qualified citizen to do so. I think it's sad that so many are taking it seriously though.

I am going with Trump.

He will tax Mexico's imports, unless they pay for wall...wall would be a lot cheaper for Mexico.

No more politicians negotiating trade deals and nuclear deals. Send the scum of Wall Street to negotiate our deals.. China, Japan, Mexico, Saudi Arabia start making us some money. Brings back jobs to USA.

Bomb oil fields in Iraq. Have our American oil companies go in and build back the refineries, keep the oil, no more ISIS. ..

No common core education. .

Better care for Vets...

Need to see what having a president who understands business is like..

Obama was a community leader, who never ran a lemonade stand, if Obama can do it...

Trump not a polished speaker, but that has nothing to do with his ability to produce...

He has been dealing with politicians his whole life.. he will get stuff through congress..

Plenty of experience with heads of countries through all of his worldwide business ventures and projects, they all respect him...

A president most certainly can. They can appoint a Fed chairman that won't constantly be manipulating the currency. A president can instruct his attorney general to go after companies hiring illegal aliens.

Yeah, we can count on that group to always have the country's and the people's best interests at heart, eh?

In case you haven't noticed, neither party has had the country's or the people's best interest at heart in quite a along time.

Yeah, we all know Donald Trumps resume pales in comparison to that highly qualified community organizer Obama..

Moderate republican here and I honestly I do have a problem with trump for president. The guy isn't presidential and has proven that several times with statements and actions the past few weeks.

Most honest response yet..

I'm not sure why the huge pro, or anti Trump positions already since no one knows where he stands on many of the important issues..

In the unlikely event that Trump became nominee I think that it would lead to a breakup of the GOP as we know it. I would never in a million years vote for him. I would probably vote LP in 2016 and then work to help establish a new party to represent conservatism and limited gov't. Trump represents neither.

I don't think it will come to that. We already have one major party that is predicated on the low-info voter. Hopefully I will not see both parties fall into that category in my lifetime.
