Donald Trump for President? Whaddya Think?
 
Listening to Sean Hannity. DT is hinting very strongly that he is going to run. Said he would make an announcement in a few months.

Would you vote for him?

Those are some mighty narrow choices you provided there. I hope no one votes on any of the options unless they actually fit their feelings on the question.


I say this. He has new, fresh and improved rhetoric. But, if elected, would change nothing.

More of the same... different flavor.

Really ? I dont know, I think he would be pretty harsh. Make a lot of people mad, but for the better of the economy.

I have met DT at a motivational speaking seminar.
He is very engaging and likeable in person.
I do not know where he stands on several of the issues that are important to me, however.

I would vote for him, but the economy has already made it's turnaround.

We are on the upswing of things, though it may not have trickled down to everyone yet.


Since none of our candidates will be Holy Spirit filled, it does not too much sense to make too big of a deal over his moral issues.


Good unsaved people and immoral unsaved people go to hell when they die anyway.

Still not buying the trickle down theory, the economy will start coming back stronger because the tax cuts were extended, but it will not be a strong come back due to the uncertainty of whether they will continue to be extended.

However, I believe if he could pull it off he would make the recovery a lot faster just with the budget cuts. What I like about him is that he has nothing to lose or gain from doing the right thing. He will have no concern of a political future.

The strength of the comeback will intensify as we go along-- with or without a Democrat in the White House.

Remember the 1990's?

Yes, but Im trying to forget ! I dont want that kind of come back, I want it to be real this time, not false numbers on a piece of paper.

It was real.

The prosperity before the dot.com bubble was real.

The dot.com bubble was real.

The dot.com burst was real.

So was the recession that followed.


The global economy waxes and wanes-- especially as the economies of the world become more globalized.

Truth about the 90's. A trillion dollar dot com telecom bubble. Maybe actually closer to 3 trillion. People that are afraid to read about economics also can't read about business history.



Unemployment and housing starts are as bad as could be. The economyt is stagnent.
