Trump - What A Maroon!

**DragonLensmanWV** · 04-19-2011, 01:26 PM

Saw the other day where the Donald is now going to run for the Presidency as soon as his free TV air time is up.
While he might have some good ideas about finance,(he sure knows how to build something with other's money, make a killing, then have the project bankrupt) he unfortunately is apparently trying to curry favor with the TP'ers by rehashing that tired old definitely disproven moronic idea that our current President was not born in the US. This officially makes him a maroon, as Bugs Bunny would say.

Seems he believes this:

is true, even though it purports President Obama was born in "The Republic Of Kenya" even though it was not called that for years after his birth.
And of course he (as well as other maroons) totally disbelieves everything to the contrary.

I still find it hard to believe that normally intelligent people can have their IQ drain out of their head when it comes to this issue. That intelligent people can turn into the stupidest people on the planet instantly when this comes up is mystifying. The only answer I can come up with is they still believe the earth is flat, up is really down (it's just a big conspiracy), and owning slaves is the right way to run the country, and our duly elected President just got too uppity.

Sheesh!

What's a maroon? Did you perhaps mean moron?

**DragonLensmanWV** · 04-19-2011, 01:51 PM

For those that have never seen a Bugs Bunny cartoon, maroon is his word for moron, yes.

**For-Life** · 04-19-2011, 02:04 PM

I know the law says you cannot be President without being a natural born citizen. But honestly, with all of the issues going on right now, do you really think this should be the number one priority?

Honestly, I would rather have the best people governing my nation. I do not care where they are from.

And Trump has always been a moron. He has made some good business decisions. I will not take that away from him. But he also continues to make bad ones. He is a risk taker. Sometimes it pays off and sometimes it doesn't. He has gone close to personal bankruptcy three times. The only reason why he did not is his creditors would not let him (he owed too much and they would have lost out of on it).

The only reason why the guy is still relevant is because of his television show.

Don't forget his hair.

At least he wouldn't have a problem saying, "You're fired!"

**For-Life** · 04-19-2011, 03:20 PM

Either way, Palin and Trump and psychos like that do not have a chance of winning.

Or, "Let's invade and steal the oil".

...but as a loyal Democrat, am I glad to see them trying!

**chip anderson** · 04-19-2011, 03:45 PM

Don't stir the Republicans up too much or they may have an attack of sanity and nominate Tommy Franks, then where would you be?

Most professional soldiers have better sense than to run for political office.

**jonathan barber** · 04-19-2011, 07:39 PM

Anybody who has the backing of Gary Busey is just a joke...

Like Colin Powell? There's a repub I'd vote for.

**Judy Canty** · 04-20-2011, 06:42 AM

Mrs. Powell nixed that idea years ago.

**chip anderson** · 04-20-2011, 06:52 AM

Colin Powel is not a republican that Republicans would vote for. He is a republican democrats would vote for.

**DragonLensmanWV** · 04-20-2011, 07:36 AM

I love the way you split your own party up.:bbg:

But he likes to talk about flying kites!

**DragonLensmanWV** · 04-27-2011, 06:14 AM

Just saw today where the Maroon now says President Obama was a "terrible student" and didn't deserve to go to Harvard. President Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law School, which is only one honor (Summa Cum Laude) lower than being the furthest AWAY from a terrible student.
What a maroon.

**Uncle Fester** · 04-27-2011, 10:14 AM

Since the President has released the original birth certificate how long will it be before Trump makes good on his promise to release his financial records?

The betting window is now open:

I'll go with--- never! :)

**DragonLensmanWV** · 04-27-2011, 10:37 AM

I'm sure he doesn't want his house of cards to fall down.

At least not until the May sweeps ratings on TV are established. ;)

Not a surprise really: Trump Adviser: Even If Long-Form Birth Certificate Is Genuine, It Doesn’t Prove Anything

**finefocus** · 04-27-2011, 11:21 AM

Trump "takes credit", "is proud" that he "accomplished" the disclosure. Palin warns against being distracted by the disclosure, says we should pay attention to serious matters.
If I had said any of that, I would be so embarrassed I'd have to hide. What it must be like, to be incapable of enjoying the delicious irony.
