Trump announces presidential candidacy

Why does Fox News give this loathsome creature so much oxygen, by having him on to vent his demagoguery so often? Why?

Donald speak: "Our country needs a truly great leader and we need a truly great leader now. We need a leader that wrote 'The Art of the Deal.'"

I must say, it's rather breathtaking how Donald so loves to revel in his own megalomania.

Sean Trende's musing on twitter:

"The Ds could actually pull off an Operation Chaos with the GOP debates. Just say you're R, voting for Gilmore, Trump or Pataki."

“When do we beat Mexico at the border?” Trump asked the crowd at his announcement at his namesake Trump Tower in New York City. “They are not our friend, believe me…The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems…When Mexico sends its people, they are not sending their best. They are not sending you. They are sending people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems to us. They are bringing drugs and they are bringing crime, and they’re rapists.”

Mexico is deporting people to the US?

Is this real?

Yup. It was meant tongue and cheek of course. The Dems will enjoy watching the other Pub candidates having to deal with this loose cannon.
