He seems to really care about getting our economy back on track, and if anyone could do it, he would certainly know how. You gave Obamadunce a chance, why not someone with business smarts, and experience in knowing what to do and when to do it.
The irony of this post is amazing.

His favorability rating is 26%. I'm with the majority. I don't like his personality.

Donald Trump Positive Rating Higher Than That Of Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty

I'm willing to at least hear what he has to say. On the surface, he comes off as an opportunist. But if he can stray away from this personal stereotype that I have of him and put forth sound policy inititatives that I can agree with, i'm not above giving him a chance to at least compete in a primary.

Twice.
Donald Trump has never declared bankruptcy. Businesses owned and/or controlled by Trump have declared bankruptcy. There's a difference. Get it right.

If Donald Trump is the answer for our country, then we don't deserve to have a country any more.

No. He is good with real estate, he should stick to it. If he is elected, I am sure he will do a better job than Obama, but that's not what we need. We don't need a president that will be better than Obama, we need a leader.

If you pay attention to the interview, you will realize how little does he understand how US politic and does not understand economic.

For example of politic: He said the US military in South Korea is to protect the Korean. He need to understand, the US military is there is because of self-interest. If not because of the anti-communism policy we had back in post WW2, the military wouldn't be in there.

If the government want to protect other country, plenty of countries in Africa need help, but we are not there.

Example of economics: He said the Chinese manipulated with price. Last I check, the US Dollar is the world reserves. The Chinese Yuan pegged to the USD. If our government is not debasing the USD, the Chinese wouldn't do so. Debasing the a currency that is a world reserves, push other countries in the world to debase theirs.

Trump is spot on with his assessment of our trade problem with China. We are being rolled and in the process willingly handing over our most advanced proprietary knowledge for free. We will be at their mercy in the near future to be able to afford the embedded R&D we once owned.

But the short-term opportunity brokers will continue to benefit until the end market (US) is destroyed as the majority of the population heads toward $9 an hour.
