Nah, it gives us the same view we've had for many, many years of how he'll work tirelessly to promote himself, nothing more.
Both are now statistically tied. In fact Hillary, was 20pts ahead
Who do you want running the finances of the USA?

Kitty, dear, you asked, "who do you want running the finances of the USA" and I answered "Not Trump." How is that not answering your question? There were no other posts in between yours and mine. I answered yours. Too bad if you don't like my answer. I may not know at this point in time who I want for president but I sure as heck know exactly who I don't want in the wide open field.

Being proud of your wealth doesn't make you an elitist.
Believing power and wealth should be in a small number of hands is being an elitist. Trump has refused money from special interest groups who own all the other candidates, and has repeatedly said he works for the American people's interests. The little people as you put it.
The only way for him to prove his words true, is to win the election and show us he means it. Can't judge until after that.
Wow, he said that?! What a complete 180 from what presidential candidates typically say! :roll eyes:
Here he is lamenting wages in this country--they're too high in his opinion. In order to compete with the dreaded Chinese, we need wages comparable to theirs. So "deh businesses don't leave". Trump: I never said wages are too high - POLITICO
Just because Trump bashes minorities, mocks women and the handicap, and has children singing war anthems at his rallies, doesn't make him ant-establishment. He's anything but.
Trump is the epitome of an elitist--he loves nothing more than to tell us little people of his opulent and extravagant lifestyle. If he isn't bragging about his bank balance, he isn't happy.
In many ways, Trump is the posterchild of the wealthy Baby Boomer yuppie from Manhattan. The fact that he wears a trucker cap at his rallies and speaks like a 4th-grader does little change his image.
Bloomberg's net worth: $40B
Trumpf's net worth: $8B
I'd love to see Bloomberg enter just to see him rub that he's x8 more wealthy than "I'm Really Rich" Donald.
Maybe WaldoKitty keeps a database of every poster and the candidates they support?
I'm beginning to believe that is true. Or, a database of everyone who doesn't support trump, and assumes that they support someone they are 'ashamed' to divulge. I wonder if waldokitty spends hours with the mouse poised over other candidate's names, trying to click that 'supports' field next to a name... oh gawd... what name is it!
Why does waldokitty think that people who are not divulging who they support, if indeed they have decided yet who they support, are ashamed? Or that is it any of waldokitty's business? Who made waldokitty the hall monitor for CD? One of the great mysteries of the universe, and my bet is that we will never know the answer.
But wait... didn't staying at a Holiday Inn Express make him smarter? We are all doomed!
