His comments resonate with the American people, no doubt about it.

With the latest poll from NBC, The Donald sits in second with the GOP primary voters.

Love, love, love that he has a "forum" to bring up these issues and let them stew with the American people.
Sounds like a Trump/Palin ticket. The problem is that I don't think Palin is qualified for the VP slot.

Charlie Sheen was rational until he went nuts, Trump's close behind him. I think it may be a disease related to superegos.

Let someone check things out.

The press would not and for some reason the Clintons (who first raised the point) stopped short.
Before the Donald, I really thought the birther thing was crazy. Now, the fact that Obama will not produce proof really makes you wonder.

I personally think he was born in the US. But Trump asked the question awhile back - what if it's not where he was born, but what is on the certificate. Like saying he's muslim?

But go ahead and place him on the Republican ticket.

Lots of people born rich aren't successful. He's done a lot more than build ugly buildings. He employs a lot of people, for one. Yup, declared bankruptcy, started over, and succeeded the next time around.

And it wouldn't be a Leftie slam without bringing up physical appearance. Gotta love the civility.

Scapegoating, breeding fear and paranoia to distract attention from anything of substance. That's all.

They don't and never have put religions on a birth certificate.

Trump is a moron and any American that would vote for him is one as well. I didn't have anything against the guy until he started talking about going into countries like Iran, Libya, etc. and taking over and controlling their oil. WTF? What right do we think we have as a country to go into Iran which is a modern sovereign country and take over their oil? This guy is a dumbass and he will lead America into more wars just like the past two clowns. His rhetoric on China is hilarious. Talk about sinking the US economy if Trump had his way with China it most certainly would.

So bankruptcy is okay as long as it's business.

Cute.

I wouldn't care who he dates either but the Reps are constantly telling us about family values. Trump isn't exactly what comes to mind when you think of a good father or a good husband.

Why do you care about what Trump does in the bedroom? I thought Democrats didnt care?
Most of his job are subsidized by the state. That's what happens when you declare fiscal bankruptcy and run out on your debts. Apparently it's terrible when someone defaults on a mortgage unless they're rich.

What hypocrisy!

He was born rich and built ugly buildings. He's been given so many state subsidies to do so you can barely count them all. Most of us, when given access to such wealth, would do something better with it. We'd lobby for a cure for cancer or help fund the arts.

All Trump does is make housing for the rich.

Republican values on display are so repulsive. The teacher who helps your child learn to read is the enemy. The spoiled creep who builds buildings we don't need is to offered the highest office in the land.

Ick.

Success is not declaring bankruptcy, putting up housing for rich people we don't need and being a lousy father and husband.

The Republican definition of someone admirable always makes me shudder. If he were running on the Dem ticket one can only imagine the contempt for his lousy finances, multiple marriages, out of wedlock children and state subsidies.

But it's okay if you're a Republican.
