In Raleigh, Donald Trump all but announces presidential bid

Trump referred to the constantly growing field of Republican candidates as “clowns,” and said former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio have already made major gaffes.

Billionaire businessman Donald Trump all but confirmed he’ll run for the Republican presidential nomination during a stop Saturday at the N.C. GOP convention.

Trump says he’ll make his formal announcement on June 16. “I think a lot of people are going to be very happy” with the decision, Trump told The News & Observer before a sold-out speech Saturday night. “They’re tired of watching America go down. ... It’s about making America great again. I can do it, and nobody else can do it.”

He made a point of using the phrase “if I run” in his speech but voiced frustration with a disclaimer: “June 16, will you come, please, fast – I’m so tired of saying that.”

Trump referred to the constantly growing field of Republican candidates as “clowns,” and said former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio have already made major gaffes.

“After watching Bush make a total ass---- of himself, Rubio makes an ass---- of himself,” Trump said of his potential opponents.

Addressing criticism that he lacks the political experience to be president, Trump said he’d be strong on foreign policy.

“I’ve made a lot of money beating China and other countries,” he said. “I only have experience beating other countries. Is that good experience?”

Trump offered an alternative plan for the international trade negotiations under way. He said Ford and other companies looking to move manufacturing to Mexico or overseas should face a 35 percent tax when they ship the goods back to the U.S.

That would bring the plants back home, he argued. “That’s what’s going to happen, and there are hundreds, thousands of those deals,” he said. “I will make this country so rich – if I run on the 16th – just you watch.”

Trump wasn’t modest about his credentials. “I would be the greatest jobs president that God ever created,” he said. “I would be strongest by far on security, because I’m very big into the military, very big into the vets.”

He said he knows how to beat the Islamic State militants and criticized the Obama administration’s approach.

“Every single move we make militarily, we talk about it in a press conference,” he said.

Trump called President Barack Obama “most likely incompetent.” He questioned why Secretary of State John Kerry bicycles at age 71: “What the hell is he doing?” And he said Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is “unusual” because she avoids media questions. “I think she’s going to have a hard time,” he said.

He also addressed another frequent question. “It is my hair by the way,” he said. “That’s always a sign when people hate me: They say he wears a wig.”

If I still voted, D. Trump would get mine. He knows how it works.

Hey -

Still, the Donald wears his jiz kneepads, so I won't support him.

None of the announced candidates don't have their kneepads firmly in place!

Jewdy, Jewdy, Jewdy! Singing a soothing, tender ballad from a sex farce by decadent theater Jue Sondheim, based on a typically dreary movie by covert Jue Bergman. Jewdy has a divine voice but has had a hellish life as demigoddess and probably should have just remained a wife and mother.

I read her 101% kosher autobio Trust Your Heart but it was written before half the trouble she'd gotten herself into -- the first half being bizarre enough.

Jewdy, Jewdy, Jewdy -- you're a great artist and I love you but this country really needs what you were before dumping Peter. Maybe you just should have been born ugly for your own good.

As the saying goes, it takes one to know one.

John Howard says: There are 4 schools of economics:
Marxism: steal everything
Keynesianism: steal by counterfeiting whenever needed
Chicago school (Milton Friedman): steal by counterfeiting at a steady, predictable rate
Austrians: don't steal

Democrats don't mind war as long as they can have big government. Republicans don't mind big government as long as they can have war.

Blustering like this is nothing new from the Donald. And people I talk to learned nothing from the last time.

Always nice to have a rat-clown weigh in here, thanks.

Yes, it was meant exactly that way.

You got that right. He's probably the biggest of all. Mr. Establishment himself when it comes to financial things.

Funny thing is that he's made his money while participating in the very institutions that have ruined this country in spades.

OMG, such wit, such incredible wit! Let's hope some of it spills over from satire into the public consciousness (such as it is).
