I see where Donald Trump is at the top of a lot political polls these days. Does the name, Rudolph W. Giuliani ring any bells? I still seriously doubt that The Don will actually run. I believe he is only seeking the publicity. Donald has zero experience in public affairs but tons of baggage. The only thing Trump brings to the table is unmitigated gall.
He has traditionally backed Democrats and recently he has decided to become a deficit hawk, yet he has a long history of using Chapter 11. Here is an example of how Mr Trump takes care of debt. Donald failed to pay a $40m loan to Deutsche Bank arguing that the 2008 financial crisis was an Act of God, In 2009, his Trump Entertainment Resorts filed for bankruptcy. I guess God isn’t into gambling either.
He has flip-flopped on every subject thrown his way in the last few months and in this day in time when every utterance and statement is captured; he will become an even bigger laughing stock in the public arena. Let’s look at what he has said so far.
In February 2009, Trump embraced Obama’s efforts to cap the salaries of Wall Street executives whose companies were receiving government support, saying “he’s absolutely right” to institute salary limits.
In an interview on CNN in 2009 when asked about President Obama, Donald Trump said,“I really like him. We'll have to see how he does. On a personal basis, I like him.” In March of 2009, Trump said, “I think we have a president who is working very hard and trying very hard. He inherited a mess.”
You will notice that he never brought up the subject of Obama’s birth certificate until a few weeks ago. When on ABC’s Good Morning America this week, George Steponpolis asked Trump who the investigators were that Trump had used to ferret out this information, Trump said, “None of your business.” Actually I think it is.
Recently when asked about President Obama, Mr Trump said, “the worst president ever.” In March of 2007, Donald said, “I think Bush is probably the worst president in the history of the United States.”
Seems The Donald had a Palin moment in his latest interview. He didn’t know Roe vs Wade is based on “right of privacy.” The Don also was Pro-Choice for many years, but has now decided he is Pro-Life. I would say that decision was a political one rather than change of heart. His three marriages and the fact that he was inducted into the Gaming Hall of Fame in 1995 may be a harder sell to the Family Values bunch.
Don’t you like a guy that’s decisive and sticks to his opinions no matter what?
Donald Trump is not a self made millionaire, his father was. The reason Mr. Trump is seeking all of this publicity is that he makes most of his money from branding his name. He licenses his name to all kinds of things but actually has nothing to do with them. He has admitted this in numerous articles and interviews.
Here is a man who has an unquenchable thirst for the spotlight yet is so insecure he sports the world’s worst comb-over to hide his baldness. You would think he could afford a toupee.
Stay tuned for future adventures.
