born wealthy and has managed to stay wealthy

although virtually went bankrupt in the late 80's (his creditors took a haircut)


just proves the easiest way to make a small fortune is to start off with a large one

imo Jay Z would be better

Trump's a grade-A nutter, and that's saying something when you take into account some of the more colourful personalities that already inhabit mainstream US politics.

If I was an American I'm not sure I'd be happy having someone who's been bankrupt 4 times at the helm.

They elected Dubya twice (allegedly) their bar isn't set high.

Well he's not afraid to renege on promises (Scottish Golf/Real Estate development as one example) so politics will suit him.

If Boris ever made it as PM here it would be battle of the hair styles come visit time. How on Earth does Trump achieve that comb forward/sideways syrup look?!

“Nobody’s ever been more successful than me. I’m the most successful person ever to run. Ross Perot isn’t successful like me. Romney – I have a Gucci store that’s worth more than Romney.”

A Spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee issued the following statement: “He adds some much-needed seriousness that has previously been lacking from the GOP field, and we look forward hearing more about his ideas for the nation.

I really dont know if that's the better way round , as opposed to Billy liar who's profited wildly from his position in office .

The money and airtime thrown at smearing opponents over there is something to behold

Not a chance that Trump will win the Republican nomination. He's too crazy even for them.

I think that whoever the Repubs nominate, Clinton will win comfortably.

yeah, he's a dick. It's a publicity campaign, here the money is on him bailing before things get serious and he can use the 'presidential candidate' thing as a commercial benefit.

It's clear from interviews that he has no idea about policies etc. r at least has not gotten anywhere near being able to communicate any worthwhile political ideas, merely some soundbites which get people thinking he is some kind of massiah. Last new report I saw on him ran a twitter pole at the same time and it was nearly 70% in his favour for Pres...worst thing ever
