Last night Donald Trump was not pleased with President Obama’s victory, and he took to Twitter to express his feelings. Trump tweeted the following: “Well, back to the drawing board!” “We can’t let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided!” “Lets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice! The world is laughing at us.”"This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy!” “Our country is now in serious and unprecedented trouble…like never before.” “Our nation is a once great nation divided!” “The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy.” NBC anchor Brian Williams called Trump out and called him irrelevant. Trump not to be undone called Williams a dummy and said that williams wished he had his ratings. My question is how does this make NBC look? The star of a reality show calls your evening anchor a dummy and you do nothing about it? If williams is to be respected as the grand oracle of the network do you just stand by and let ringmaster Trump take potshots at him, but this is also the network that allowed trump to trumpet his make believe run for the presidency and this is also the network that let Trump verbalize his birtherism ideas with impunity. So I guess I answered my own question. They will never cut him loose because while he is a loudmouth, he is also a money making newsmaker and that trumps a respected journalist any day.
Today on The View Barbara Walters called Donald Trump out regarding his 5 million dollar offer. She told him to stop making a fool of himself. Read the linked story and share your thoughts.
Donald Trump is loudly trumpeting the birther agenda. He continues to question the President’s birth place in spite of the facts. Some have labeled his antics as racist, but Trump has the ultimate excuse for charges of racism. He hired Arsenio Hall as The Apprentice so how could he be a racist. This sounds logical if you are crazy. I just wonder how Hall feels about his new best friend status?
Senator John McCain stood up to extremism, but Mitt Romney invites you to sit down with it…Mitt Romney invites supporters to sit down with birther Donald Trump for a fundraising dinner. Note to Mitt Romney “you’re known by the company you keep.”
Photos from the Trump brothers African safari have surfaced with them proudly posing next to their kill. Daddy Trump says it’s no big deal he says, ” I eat, I kill”, but are these the kind of animals that he is eating? Read the linked story and look at the photos and share your thoughts.
“NBC ran a repeat of “The Voice” at 7, followed by the season premiere of “Celebrity Apprentice” at 9, which posted a 2.8/7 in the demo — a 7 percent decline from last year’s premiere, and the lowest-rated “Celebrity Apprentice” premiere ever. The premiere drew 7.4 million total viewers.”*
Ratings are down for Celebrity Apprentice have people finally grown tired of The Donald? Donald Trump has always been an unabashed braggert, but recently he has become the self-anointed spokesperson for the birther movement. So he has made it impossible for me to watch any show that he is affliliated with. So I am glad to see people are tuning out. We live in a two party system and I respect that system, but when one starts promoting a dangerous fringe group that is when it is time to have a parting of the ways. This might not be the sole reason for the ratings drop, but I do believe it is in part and for that I am glad. http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/02/20/idUS197400636320120220
This Sunday a new cycle of Celebrity Apprentice begins. I will not be watching and Donald Trump is the reason why. Donald Trump is a Republican and that is not the problem. The problem is Trump has embraced birtherism. He spent last year questioning the president’s citizenship and thusly questioning his right to be the president. I have no problem with an opponent questioning the president’s policies, but when you challenge the president’s right to occupy the Oval Office that is another thing. Trump gladly shared his views on NBC most notably as a frequent guest on the Today Show and he parlayed his position into a weekly spot on Fox and Friends. Trump has a right to his own opinion, but not to his own facts. So I can vote with my remote and it will not be tuned into Celebrity apprentice.
Donald Trump announced today that he will not moderate the debate that he attempted to put together. He says he is keeping his options open. He is still mulling over an independent run for the presidency, but is this the real reason he is stepping aside? Could the real reason be that only two candidates consented to be party of this carnival? Read the linked story and tell me what you think.
