The news that Donald Trump went bankrupt more often than he married wives has led to a great deal of angry second guessing by leading republicans -- not.

Previously,The Donald filed for corporate bankruptcy in 1991, 1992, 2004, and 2009 according to the Wall Street Journal.

And this guy wants to run the biggest corporation on earth?.

And Republicans want to line up behind a guy whose idea of good business is to leave thousands of debtors holding his debts while he reorganizes and stiffs 'em?

Ah yes, that prescient, brilliant Donald Trump.

Personally I'd prefer Donald Duck running the country.

The Donald is not all he is quacked up to be that is now abundantly clear.

But the process of running for president will expose all these flaws and megalomania in the Donald until he runs screaming for the exits.

It says here he won't be able to stand the heat.

It will be roast Donald Duck before all this is over.

And the media will be looking for the next sucker to draw in.

Michael Bloomberg anyone?

Trump's Bankruptcy's have never been Secret. Why do you think something like that would stop him from running? I personally think he's just fueling the fires to get some action started by whomever is going to run in the next election. What does it matter to you? You aren't an American. I am.
HEY ROBERTS....NAME ONE THING OBAMA HAS DONE TO IMPROVE OUR NATION!
It's too bad that the Donald couldn't run. The Republicans need another loser to take his place. They have plenty to chose from. How about John "The Weeper" Boehner.
Don't any of you righties remember 2008? The economy was in shambles after Bush spent 7 years borrowing from China to cover the expenses of two blown wars. You ought to turn off Fox news sometime and go read a book.
Trump is a empty suit blowhard who will never run for the Presidency. He would have to reveal his less than stellar net worth and he is never going to do that. He is a essentially a front man for businesses with his name on it that he has relatively little equity participation in. His main income is Celebrity Apprentice. "Apprentice" is exactly what he is. I love it - Democrats for Trump!
Borrowing money is a big part of business, especially real estate, which is the business of Donald Trump. Borrowing money is also a big part of running the government. Dick Cheney said, "deficits don't matter" as he and Bush took us from surplus to the largest budget deficits in U.S. history. You cannot deny that they left a huge hole which the country is still digging out of. Oh, but we mustn't blame Bush/Cheney or the Republicans who controlled both the House and Senate as they funded two wars and Part D of Medicare (adding $60 billion to the annual Medicare budget) at the same time they cut taxes. Brilliant! The Donald is a very good marketer, but have you noticed he is trying to pander to every conservative group with his new-found positions on abortion, international trade, and Obama's birth certificate. And I love his explanation for three marriages - that he works too much! He is very entertaining and I look forward to him running.
I'd rather back a businessman who's come out on top than someone who's never ran any kind of business and who's idea of fixing the economy is to borrow more instead of cutting unnecessary fat. The U.S. needs someone who can run a business, and isn't afraid of firing a few czars who aren't earning their keep... Someone needs to tell Obama, "You're Fired!"
Mr. PR or should that be PC, Trump never filed for personal bankruptcy. His corporations filed under Chapter 11 to reorganize. Trump's businesses went on to fare well and he is still collecting his 2 million salary. Seems reorganization works. The current administration also needs to reorganize the financial meee they have created in the past two years. No more blame the prior administration as Bama is STILL alluding to. Get over it; get to work. Put down the golf club and the campaign hat. Now you have yet another war-like situation ongoing with far more revolutionaries being killed than ever occurred under the current despot.
