It's also unlikely he is doing it for money, I don't think I could spend 9 billion in my lifetime

He's doing it because our country is not great like it used to be. He's losing money left And right because business partners don't like what he has to say. I assume because they are to politically correct.

NBC dropped his miss America pageant, macys and some others have dropped him as well.

Reasonably thinking people who are up to date with current events should know this... Or at least be able to assume this based on the info thats out there.

Come on guys... This is our country, it is a responsibility of ours as a citizen to be in the know.
I guess we will see if he stands by that. Personally, I don't think it will matter because I don't think he will get the republican nomination. The polls today are looking good for him, but I don't know that he has the connection with the evangelicals and the far right that he will need to get the nomination. They do share similar immigration ideals, so he could get some of those voters with that, but early on he will be facing off against guys like Huckabee and Santorum who the far right loves.

To me a lot of it will depend on how well he does in the early GOP debates. If he just shouts out sound bites and others have actual plans it will hurt him.

I think right now a lot of people think he is a breath of fresh air in politics so they like him. He's the new hot girl at school. In six months we will see if people still like him or if he has worn out his welcome.
