I knew it. Trump's run is a publicity scam.

Trump has 30 days after an announcement to file a listing of his assets—and liabilities—with the Federal Election Commission. He can seek two 45-day extensions, and those are granted routinely. That means it will be mid-October before Trump reaches the put-up or shut-up moment on giving the public a peek at his personal finances.

The impotent, hairless, non-billionaire can ride this bullshit train for months. There is no fucking way the reality show scum will disclose his financial state.

At least he will give John Stewart a few memorable lines between now and then.

Deep down he probably believes he's the only one that can "fix the country".

My suspicion is he'll stay in long enough to get in a debate or two and try to figure out if he is building any kind of momentum.

If not he punts, and has gotten a lot of free promotion for the Trump brand in the process.

He can't lose, in many ways.

you'll see the words "small penis". It seems pretty clear what the point was.
