I see there are still no line item characterizations that can shed any light on just how Obama is so colorfully and unequivocably the "worst President ever". I simply have to think the detractors have nothing. I've never seen such wide distribution and intricate analysis of a non-truth, ever. Put up, or shut up.

In his dreams, Don thinks that by being President he can set taxes and tariffs on his own, without input or resistance from the other branches of government. In this, he is wrong.

I imagine he also thinks that he can simply "fire" any congressperson, senator, or judge who disagrees with him and/or resists his will. If so, he will find that, in this, too, he is wrong. These are ways that being an elected official, running a government, is vastly different from running a corporation.

Being as self-centered and ego-maniacal as he is, I do not believe he could hold the office for long, before he wound up cracking under the pressure.

Though a long-shot, I am hoping Bernie Sanders is our next President. I kinda like the Pauls, but I don't trust them AT ALL.

it seems like Trump is just marketing himself again and can't pass up the attention a Presidential run garners. I think he is interesting and has some good ideas but not a political. Floating Oprah's name shows he's not in it to win it.

I suppose we will see. Trump can outspend Hillary Clinton 10 to 1 if he chooses to do so and that is without any donations.

Next president & VP of USA?



I'd vote for them.
Wow, could you imagine the social entitlements we'd get if Oprah were in politics? You get a car, you get a car, you get a car!

What?!?! That NEVER happens in the media!

(Except daily, on just about every story they can find.)
