Donald Trump just endorsed McCain on Larry King
He sounded like PUMA; upset that Obama did not select Hillary as VP.

3. not surprising.
Edited on Wed Sep-17-08 08:24 PM by ErinBerin84
I actually thought that he had endorsed McCain a while ago...I saw him on some entertainment show the other day talking about how McCain is an "old friend".

Edited on Wed Sep-17-08 08:20 PM by MrModerate
Waiting for that crucial TheDonald (tm) endorsement. It's got to be worth at least 6 or 7 votes, all by itself.

14. Negative 6 or 7...does anyone really like Trump? I know people watch it, but does anyone actually
think he's a great guy? Especially anyone that wasn't already going to vote McCain?

36. He gives me the creeps and I don't watch his shows.
Just remember that he also kind of endorsed Kerry in 2004, because of his hatred of bush. Trump's hair is a joke and so is he.

59. Luckily, Trump's business "associates" mostly hail from Russia
"Born in the Soviet Union in 1966, Felix H. Sater immigrated with his family to Brighton Beach when he was 8 years old. At 24 he was a successful Wall Street broker, at 27 he was in prison after a bloody bar fight, and at 32 he was accused of conspiring with the Mafia to launder money and defraud investors.
Along the way he became embroiled in a plan to buy antiaircraft missiles on the black market for the Central Intelligence Agency.
But in recent years Mr. Sater has resurfaced with a new business card identifying him as a real estate executive based on Fifth Avenue.
One of the people he is doing business with is Donald J. Trump.
Mr. Sater has been jetting to Denver, Phoenix, Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and elsewhere since 2003, promoting potential projects in partnership with Mr. Trump"

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/17/nyregion/17trump.html

"The Russian "businessman" to whom Donald Trump sold his Palm Beach mansion for a purported $100 million was arrested in Russia in April of 1997 and charged with masterminding the killing of a business rival, in what law enforcement authorities called "a contract hit."

9. Trump, the guy who SUCKED as a businessman, but when his
real estate deals went bust, the banks forgave a big portion of his debt.

Of course he would support McCain, the schmuck.

37. Trump started out with a million dollors that his father gave him.
If anyone of us was given a million dollors, we could be successful. That is unless we are gwb, then the million would not help. ;)

Talk about out of touch. He's getting endorsements from people who are insulated from the declining economy.

43. well that's stupid
who changes their vote based on wanting a different VP pick? it's not like Biden is a disqualifying pick, he's just not who Trump wanted :eyes:

so trump is going to vote against all of Hillary's issues, whereas if she were on the ticket he would vote for all her values?

someone has no values.

you're fired dumbass. :eyes:

50. Trump does whatever he thinks will benefit Trump.
He's loyal to no one but Trump.

He's a creep. Nothing he ever says or does will hide that fact. He's a pig. (Actually, I shouldn't say that, because it's insulting to pigs.)

53. When the economy is tanking
the last thing you want are billionaires endorsing you. Your endorsers define who you are fighting for. The people who respect Trump are already voting Republican; he is disliked and distrusted by a larger percentage of people that don't want real estate moguls having more power than they already do.
