Ah, the ever tolerant left. Some one says something they don't agree with and they want to shut them up.

Only the left is allowed freedom of speech.

When people want to run for public office, it is common practice to look into their financial dealings.

He's put himself out there.



As I remember it, he usually conveniently went bankrupt during his many divorce proceedings...

Looking into the Donald's real financial history would be very interesting!
And what if he just seals his records like Obama has done?

Obama hasn't sealed his records, and financial disclosure is not an optional requirement. Apart from that, nicely argued.

No one was calling him out when over the years he's given hundred of thousands to a variety of Democratic candidates.

Many have been doing just that since Trump has claimed he would run. People easily taken in by charisma need to look at the actions of any candidate.

Trumps actions are ones of failed businesses, giving money to politicians hoping for business favors, and one of supporting eminent domain for profit. He is not a Conservative by any stretch of the imagination. He is a spoiler playing a game.

Are they protesting Simon Cowell as well? Oprah? Or any of the other "already wealthy enough, so don't need the money" celebrities that are on TV?

Please explain why it's a charade. It's on TV, people watch. Pretty simple concept, really. Hardly a charade.

Don't like Trump since waaay before he started running his mouth about Obama. I have never watched a minute of his reality show. All that being said, if I am going to participate in a boycott, it will be for an issue far more important than what a pissant like Donald Trump has said or not said.

Don't forget to boycott Bill and Hillary Clinton and all the other 2008 contenders for the Democrat nomination, because they all asked to see the birth certificate led by the Clintons in 2007.

As far as other things Trump says, he's right.
The President doesn't know what he is doing and is running the country into the ground.
He blew the Gulf Oil mess, Egypt, Libya, and wanted to bring terrorist to the USA for trial.
In other sad news the inventor of the teleprompter died last week probably leaving Obama speechless for a moment.

Hmmm, reading problems seem to prevail for Obama haters...

I clearly stated that a Trump boycott was of no interest to me.

As to your opinions, you are entitled to them, no matter how misguided they might be.
