Trump Card

Jessie gave a lengthy interview with Piers Morgan the other day. He says he's been living in Mexico the last few months. He's promoting his latest book and he's suing the TSA.

He's also thinking of killing off Jessie Ventura.

No joke on my part. Him and Ron Paul outta team up. He is a straight up Libertarian. Originally Posted by WTF

@ MA I watched that interview. Morgan was truly perplexed by many of Ventura's nutty beliefs.

Saturday night was the White House Correspondents dinner; as is the custom the President spoke and unlike most speeches it is always one that is on the comedic side which often jabs at various people, including himself. Usually the main entertainment is a comedian who also takes jabs at much of the audience.

This year Trump was at the event and some of the jabs Obama took were at him, ditto for the comedian. Trump lashes out at both of them. Aside from his politics, shouldn't a potential President have a thicker skin? Presidential politics - both campaign and in office - can be brutal; not sure a thin skin along with the propensity to speak and act impulsively is an asset.

Speaking of Trump and Obama. As I am watching the Celebrity Apprentice, there is a message that Obama is about to make a statement to the nation. Could be serious.

Yeah Osama bin Laden was killed.

But perhaps standing up for yourself, and a propensity to speak and act decisively is an asset.

See DG, its all how one spins it. If one doesn't speak up then there is only the other speaker's spin.

You missed the word "impulsively", RK. Speaking and acting decisively but not doing so impulsively are not contradictory.

I note you whittled your comment down to just the second part too. Pretty soon, there won't be anything left.

Fixed.

Hey, I think Trump would be a great nominee .... for anyone who wants to see Obama re-elected

Exactly what Steve Earle said last Friday in Toronto!

Doove's criticism has amounted to little more than repeating "he sucks" over and over again? Originally Posted by Doove

So, is that the solution to thoughful expression of one's own ideas? It's amazing what passes for snappy up in Buffalo. Maybe you all need to put a coat on.

I have no idea what you're referring to. I'll assume that if i did, your attempt at a Buffalo joke would have been funny. But we'll never know.

Speaking of Trump, what does the group think of his prospects for Prez in 2012?

IMO, the really funny part would be listening to the Lefties whine about his "lack of experience". Originally Posted by pjorourke
