You’re Elected!

Donald Trump is supposedly getting serious about making a run for the Presidency in 2012.

We’ve been hearing rumblings and hints about this off an on recently, but according to the latest story, he is now telling his closest friends that he will definitely declare his candidacy in the Spring of 2011.

I remember when Trump fulfilled his wish to own a pro football team, buying the New Jersey Generals of the old World Football League after NFL owners blackballed him.

I and many others have been disappointed for a long time over the fact that no one who is actually capable of running this country would ever actually run for the office — because of the extreme drop in lifestyle and pay that a victory would mean.

But we didn’t take into account the massive ego of The Donald.

Sure, we all know this country desperately needs someone with a clue about how to fix the economy and how to return our country to the level of respect it once had among other countries in the world. And we know Donald Trump is certainly someone who could make both of those things happen (whereas I can’t imagine any politician who could do either).

But I’ll still be amazed if he actually runs.

• Why would he want all that stress?
• Why would he want all the negative attention (even more than he now gets)?
• Why would he want to give up his current lifestyle?

Could it be because he really cares that much about the future (and present) of this country?

In my opinion, that’s important to him. But even more important to him would have to be that he could prove that he is able to attain the position of highest political power in the country (if not the world).

What are your thoughts on “President Donald Trump”?

• Do you think he’ll really run?
• Do you think he would win if he did?
• Why do you really think he would run?
• Do you think he’d be a good President if he won?

I’d love to read your comments…
