I like Donald as a person, Bussiness man and such. But when he was on The View yesterday and said that President Obama needs to show his birth certificate, Donald lost all credibility. I was interested in what Donald had to say until he spilled that out.

Maybe that wouldn't be such a bad idea.

BTW, yes, he has done the chapter 7 things in the past, just like many big businesses, but he has made a heck of a lot of money as well.

As for the pool cancelling each other out, I don't think you have a clue what you are talking about. They would only cancel each other out if they were all running in the general election. One will emerge the winner in the spring of next year, from there the party will get behind that person and so will many independents.

I agree we need to hear what he has to say, I also do not buy this crap about Obama, but I also agree, we have every right to see Obama's birth certificate. If he was born in America which I think he was, he is being a jerk and an arrogant so and so for not putting the issue to bed once and for all.

So much for the GOP and Tea Party claims of wanting "fiscal responsibility" The hypocrisy and double-speak is off the charts.

what the ---- are you mumbling about? What does Trump have to do with the Tea Party? Of course the party wants fiscal responsibility, but stuff happens or did you not know that? Living in Ca I would think you would have a lot of understanding about bankruptsy or is it just keep borrowing that you think is the answer?

You don't understand WHY people seek bankruptcy protection. They do it to SAVE their business, not to kill it.

I don't recall seeing or hearing about any other President having to show a birth certificate. This is what's driving me nuts. Good grief he was born in Hawaii~!

This is true, but I don't think we have ever had a Pres where there has been any doubt and there were many who tried to say McCain was not elegible to run or Romney isn't. My argument, if there is question, you answer it and get on with the problems at hand. He is just continuing to drag this out.

Right

Donald Trump is master of the real estate shell game. Rack the money off the top (of the pyramid) and then file bankruptcy (screwing all of his creditors out of millions) But I guess that it doesn't matter that those business owners are screwed when "The Donald" defaults

The hypocrisy of the RWNJs and the Tea Party Wackos is nauseating.

That's pathetic that he has to stoop down to the level of the hard right birthers in this country to make it out of the Repub primary.
