Donald Trump's Back, And Hiring Staffers For A Possible 2016 Run

Real estate mogul, and almost-kind-of 2012 presidential candidate, Donald Trump is, once again, signaling that he might really run for president in the upcoming 2016 election.

This time around, Trump is making a number of political hires and is refusing to say whether he will do another season of Celebrity Apprentice, according to The Washington Post.

"NBC has said they want to renew," Trump told the Post. "But I can't do it right now because I may be doing something else."

According to the Post, Trump has hired a few consultants who will likely move over to a new political group in the next few weeks, and would serve on a presidential campaign if Trump decided to run.

Trump will never win, and it will provide reams of hilarious entertainment.

I see no downside.

We will have to listen to this idiot's incessant braying, and I for one can't stand the sound of his voice. Yes, there is certainly an entertainment value to be considered, but I don't think it's worth it. I really don't.

I'm always in favor of the Republican party putting it's most ridiculous face forward. (Though to be fair, the ridiculous wing of the GOP makes up a pretty large part of the bird.)
