If you watch the Stewart video, there's no racism there. The Donald just needed his daily dose of attention and headlines.

Running for office is beneath him.

This......and the fact that he isn't a "self made" man - he inherited a butt load of money from his father. And he has filed for bankruptcy several times.

I think that's Hannity you're thinking of. Just replace 'comedian' with 'commentator'.

Stewart IS a comedian, and he can make fun of the b.s. that goes on in politics (from BOTH conservatives and liberals) if he wants.

I wonder why no one ever seems to come down on Colbert this hard....?

Trump could not risk or afford running for the office of POTUS and losing his day job as reality show idiot.
