    when he 'revealed himself' did anyone notice if his penis is as small as it usually is with most arrogant SOBs with a self -entitlement complex?

    Envious and spiteful progressives who have never run as much as a lemonade stand in their lives fail to understand that the business world involves risk. People who are entrepreneurs take on a substantial level of risk when they open their businesses, and there is risk involved when other businesses deal with these businesses. When one business fails, there is a chance that the contracts they entered into will be nixed in bankruptcy filings. It happens every day. Trump is not a unique instance of this, and it doesn't reveal anything about his character other than he is a typical businessman, regardless of what political hacks with agendas may suggest.

    He has never stood by the caskets of dead Americans and lied his ass off. He has never hired a local militia to protect a consulate, even one housing "his friend Chris" who didn't even have his email address. And he has never stuck somebody in the middle of war zone and protected them with local militia.
    Rightsize the government to the size the American People can afford and are willing to pay for.
    In what way would you like to change bankruptcy laws?
    If you have no intention of paying it back, what do you call that?
    No he didn't. He never suggested we should stop servicing the national debt.
    Bush's deficits were too big, especially once he was signing Democrat legislation rather that GOP legislation. But, Bush's largest deficit was still smaller than Obama's smallest deficit.

    Everyone knows Trump is a person who will do anything to make himself a dollar richer, and does not give a single (*)(*)(*)(*) about how he gets there, and will never take person responsibility for any of his failures as a businessman.

    He, like Romney, never use his personal money on deals. He form dumby companies (using money from the idiots who are still willing to invest with him) and uses those companies to get loans. He makes his investors sign contracts where he gets 51% of all ownership and they split 49%. He then runs the businesses into the ground, and loses nothing because he put no money into the businesses. He still gets a peice of the profits, since he owners the majority stock, and when he if he decides, as majority shareholder to sell of a company or company assets, he gets most of the money. He also loses nothing when his companies go bankrupt since he put no money into them. So he has spent years conning people out of their money while getting rich by selling off his companies for scrap while risking non of his own money, and then taking the majority of the profits from companies which happen to succeed (far more of his companies go bankrupt than succeed).

    So what? He's a shrewd operator. I want him to negotiate for US. Not some self-flagellating liberal poop head.

    There isn't any question about that. As I pointed out in the OP, he announces it to the world. He's proud of the fact taht he stiffed people.

    And the suckers are lining up.

    Trump isn't serious. He's on the biggest ego trip in the world.

    Look at all the people thrown out of work during Obama's Presidency. Don't you care or haven't you noticed?

    Probably because it is an IMPORTANT element of who Trump is. . .and it needs to be known by all who might (mistakingly) vote for him! I made this comment when the Romney story came out, asking how he could brag about being good at closing factories and businesses because it was good for the stock holders. . .America is NOT a business, it is the land of people who love that land. You can't just "close" America, fire the people, and move on with your trillions!

    Both Romney and Trump are absolutely NOT prepared to deal with the reality of this country (any country, in fact) NOT being a business from which you can draw profit until none is left to drain, and then close the shop down!

    Are you so far out of reality? Do you know what unemployment was in 2009. .and what it is today? And, please don't come back with the "real" unemployment rate. . .EVERYONE who has the smallest knowledge of economics know that EVERY measure of unemployment is REAL, but describes different elements of unemployment. . .which happen (and it is NOT a coincidence) to basically move together, either UP or Down. . .by the way, these are tagged as U1 to U5 or 6, and they are described, (with what they measure), in the following link:

    http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm

    During President Obama's watch, it is very clear that EVERY MEASURE of unemployment (or employment) have gone POSITIVE.

    Unemployment rate is not reflective of the number of people out of work and no longer looking. In fact, the participation rate is at a record low.

    No he wasn't, he was asked only one question [using the quote you posted] : Why should the voters believe the promises that you are telling them right now?

    And he answered that question, by my estimation.

    I never said it was a democrat thing, but then, everything is partisan to you. I attributed the laws which Trump took advantage of as being crafted by legislators, not dems or repubs. Pay attention...threre's going to be a test and you may not do very well if you're worried about partisanship instead the presented subject matter.

    The left doesn't want to factor in those whose unemployment ran out and are still unable to get work. The fact that they are out of the mix makes Barry's numbers look good, but only good to those too ignorant of the facts to know they are being lied to.

    The current labor participation rate is 62.4%, and has slid from the day Barry took off in 2009, when it was 65.7% . This is not right wing BS, but is from the gubmit's own Bureau of Labor Statistics website at : http://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS11300000
    Remember, the people posting these numbers work for your socialist leader, so their numbers are his numbers.

    Trump has many faults, but so too does Clinton. Sometimes it takes a mean SOB to get things done. The job of being president is not one a Mother Theresa could fill. She would be the most compassionate, but fail at most of the other responsibilities of the job. Although I would never vote for either Trump or Clinton, I think both qualify as mean SOB's. Those two are a match for each other. Both are heavily disliked by the independent voter. Neither one is trusted by the public as a whole. Certainly our two major political could do better than this in giving the citizens a better choice for president. Perhaps it is our system, a system that leaves the hard core right and the hard core left choice the candidates for president that Americans as a whole never would. Perhaps our system has become obsolete.

    With the MSM willfully ignoring corrupt Obama and Hillary for the past several years it takes alot to get people's attention now. Don't whine when someone's very small transgressions are ignored.

    Maybe the country needs to go bankrupt, other than the continuation of printing money (inflation). Or even bailing out big companies that have failed.

    Why are you acting like Washington treats their debt like normal citizens. They bring in far less than they spend, they keep raising the debt ceiling so they can spend more. Your logic is obsolete and irrelevant. Trump's bankruptcy has nothing to do with running a country. I am not for trump, but I figured I would call you out on this irrelevant oversight.

    Are you aware of the implications for this country going bankrupt? The sanctions and the coalitions that would form against it would be crazy. Imagine the world watching a 1st world country run up trillions in debt only to shimmy out of it. Keep in mind this country isn't self-sufficient, doesn't have much natural resources, and many people need the government for their sustenance. I guess the military could plunder resources, but how long do you think that'll last?

    I don't mind the call-out. Debt is debt. It really doesn’t matter if Washington doesn't treat debt like normal citizens, but eventually, it does have to get paid back. Another thing, his way of handling major debt gives us an idea on how he handles a bad financial situation. He simply wiggles out of it.

    The government does not run on charity. It takes money to run it. Speaking of which, the debt ceiling deadline is coming up. I'm curious on his thoughts on that.

    If it doesn't matter that they don't treat debt like normal citizens, than how can you bring up Trump's bankruptcy. If the government actually followed the same laws as we have to like they're suppose to, than the U.S. would have already declared bankruptcy.
    I'm interested on Trumps thoughts on debt ceiling as well. Personally I would say shut the government down. Until they can figure out how to run things properly, it is meaningless to have it running. The only thing we absolutely have to have is our military. Anything else can be achieved individually. That's just my opinion.

    To your first sentence, I guess I was trying to say, that it doesn't matter what Washington's attitude is on debt, it has to get paid back. To the rest of your post, I'm actually alright with it.

    I'm not sure if you have forgotten about 9/11 but the American people came together as one. You would be surprised on how well we can recover from disaster.
    Personally I feel if we did go bankrupt, maybe we would use that as an example to never do it again. And to never lose track of what are government is doing. Establish a government that would work more effectively, while still honoring the constitution. Make term limits for every public servant category. Lower the wage to that of what a military person would make, why should politicians get paid more than a person willing to give his/her life for the country. No more entitlement's, if we was to take all the money we spend on entitlements and divide it amongst the people, we would have money to save for emergency's. Think of all the money we spend on insurance companies, taxes, entitlement's, etc. If a person can't save their money for what they need as opposed to what they want, than I guess we have the government we deserve.

    The question to Trump is that now that he has $10 billion, why doesn't he pay the contractors, employees, vendors and investors who got burned?
