What the feck 
He wears glasses now so he's more electable. I bet he has all kinds of pre-written zingers about those agencies he wants to abolish and people will laugh with him even though he's a dumb feck who shouldn't be anywhere near the White House.
I think he's shooting for a TV show.

Great article by billionaire capitalist, Nick Hanauer. Could hardly be better said. These clowns running for the Republican nomination will never get it, but there is hope for democrats.

Donald Trump is running.
The more nutters they run the worse their chances. Should be entertaining.Donald Trump is running.
There's no way Jon Stewart can retire now.

What's that 20 candidates for the Republicans now?

Is Jim Webb considering or not?
He's still deciding whether or not to run. Personally, I'd imagine he would be a VP contender for Hillary, along with Evan Bayh.
I'd never be able to take the guy seriously as President.
Best news I've heard so far this week - will be brilliant to see Trump run; hope he pumps a lot of his own money into it as well.
Yep, the way I see it is as a form of income redistribution because of vanity. Romney pumped something like $60 million into his failed campaigns all of which filters into the economy.
This country is going to shit though.
Forgive my ignorance, but why the hate?
Trump is an ignorant asshole who gets into the Presidential race just to get more press. He knows he will never seriously run.
It is interesting that during the duration of the season of his show on TV (The apprentice) he says nothing political but as soon as its off the air, he just talks pure shit.
He was one of the main loudmouths asking Barack Obama to produce his birth certificate, then Trump wanted to see his long form birth certificate...now Trump is asking for his college transcripts.
The disrespect he has shown to the President, just to rally his base and give himself more press is disgraceful. He is an awful human being.
ok - just being objective:
this seems like an opinion
He had a query and wanted to get to the bottom of it, not sure what he did wrong? If it was such a daft thing the whole thing wouldn't have gotten any traction at all and laughed off, instead of bowing to it...
Just being objective: You're overlooking the history of racism in America and it's impact on how people see Obama. What he did wrong was that he stoked the racist fires.
The GOP met on his inauguration night and vowed to make him a one term president "by any means necessary".
One of the primary reasons they hate him so much is that they cannot stand a black man in power.
The vitriol and blatant disrespect that Barack has experienced as President is something I have never seen another President go through in my lifetime.
Not sure what you mean. There were actual question marks about him at the time, and he was the one that just pressed for the resolution.
wow - you speculate a lot. Is this fact then? Or your opinion presented as fact again?!
Im not sure you understand who the GOP base is, they do not believe in climate change, evolution or womens (or gay) rights. They have more in common with the Taliban than with regular North Americans.
No, I am quoting facts, feel free to google anything I say.
seriously!
by the way I am not agreeing or disagreeing, but your aggressive way of presenting 'facts' seems very similar to the guys you are actually belittling, ironicly.
Yes seriously, they think their way is the only one and that there should be no separation between Church and State.
And you don't think these question marks had anything to do with the innate racism of the Republican party?
No problem , you are free to believe me or not. I present facts which I know as true.
Right, and wasn't it crazy when they enacted all of that with their President's in the past...oh wait....
I think that's a strong and unfounded accusation to make IMHO.
not 'ideological' then
About the party that actively seeks to stop minorities from voting, and actively seeks to prevent immigration reform?
Trump is not a serious candidate. He will stick around for a few months for publicity then suddenly bow out when it begins to get expensive.
Bush got the same. Everyone followed the line of him being a dumbass and alcoholic.
I get the impression that there's a overwhelming sense of "It's time" feeling to her presidency...
There is that, but she also has to perform with a coherent strategy or else someone is going to knock her off her perch, much as Obama did in 2008.
If Donald Trump is a serious candidate, one imagines he isn't because of his polarising attitude on key issues in the past, but he will have a lot sh*t to shovel Hillary's way, both financially and politically. Could smear her campaign like never before seen.
Trump is a joke.
Genuinely baffled why Hilary is thought of so highly....esp after the continual stream of sleaze, arrogance and general non-coherent-ness
We already have Fox News for that and by all accounts its barely working. Her ratings are significantly higher than the insane clown posse in the GOP.
