Trump, never shy with his opinions, went on to say that McCain appears
to be winning, and that Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) should have chosen
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) as his running mate.
“I know John McCain, and John McCain's a great guy, a tremendous guy,”
Trump told King. “I've known him for a long time. And I'm with him, and
I'm with him based on the fact that I have great knowledge of John
McCain. Also, this is not the right time for tax increases. And Obama
wants to increase your taxes drastically.”
Well, maybe not your taxes. But certainly The Donald’s: Obama would
repeal President Bush tax cuts for households making more than $250,000.
During the Democratic primaries, Trump donated to Hillary Clinton,
according to records posted by the Center for Responsive Politics. Trump
donated to McCain in May, according to the records.
“I don't understand why Hillary wasn't chosen [for vice president],”
Trump said. “ She was really winning. I have a friend that came to this
country and was here for the last four weeks of that whole election. He
said: How did she lose? She won every primary? He didn't understand it.
“The fact is, that Obama went limping across the finish line. He should
have chosen Hillary, It would have been a much different race, I
believe. Right now, it looks to me like McCain is probably winning.”
During the show, the two men had this exchange:
TRUMP: I'm endorsing McCain. I am basically very strongly — you have to
understand: I've known him. I like him, I respect him.
KING: So you're endorsing him?
TRUMP: I think he's going to be a great president.
KING: So you're endorsing him.
TRUMP: Sure, I'll endorse him on your show.
KING: You just endorsed him.
TRUMP: I endorse him.
KING: Are you pessimistic or optimistic about this financial situation?
TRUMP: Well, I'm very pessimistic.
He's endorsing the man who voted again and again to allow the big
corporations to do whatever they wanted to do , which created this
mess....Doesn't make a hell of alot of sense.
But still, Trump's mere mention of McBush is helpful to an
important voter subset, the flamboyant hairy magnates with a crowd of
ex-wives.
A millionaire who's in favor of McCain's tax program? I'm shocked to hear
that, shocked I tell you!!!

The idiot set loves Trump's line "You're fired!" That is the appeal.

Maybe they'll just do anything to be on TV. Even the worst
contestants in those appalling "reality" and "talent" shows
sometimes make some money or get some fame off it. Not
from me, though, I've never watched more than a minute or
two of any of them, even though I do watch reruns of
"Married with Children" including episodes I've seen before.
You like to think of yourself as intelligent Rita. This is a key event
that can lead you to see what is happening. Hillary lost to Obama
*because* she stayed middle of the road more or less. Obama took the
easy way to defeat her in the primaries by appealing to the radical
left. He has the nomination *but* he now loses many middle thinking
voters.
You can say what you will but McCain has always been more centrist in
the Republican party.
Democrats are in trouble and it will get better (worse for you).

Yup, before I plonked her I was saying the same thing. The Dems would
be far better off with Hillary, but their loss is our gain.
Oh oh, Charlie !!! She'll come up with something to get the last
word in, even if she has to twist like a knot. Anyway she is well
read and research's everything, so she says. Book cover reporter.
The last word is often overrated.
What is abook cover reporter?
