For years Donald Trump has boasted about what a great president he would make, brashly calling out pols as finks and phonies while never actually running for any elected office himself. That came to an end Tuesday morning with a rally at the Midtown Manhattan tower that bears his name.
I dont like what I see happening to America, Trump said in a video released by his campaign. Over footage of Americas infrastructure collapsing, businesses shuttering, and unemployment, he continued: Our politicians are all talk, no action.
Echoing comments he made in January, when he vowed to make a beauty of a wall between the U.S. and Mexico, Trump said: Millions of people are flowing across our southern border. We need to build a real wall.
As he enters his first political campaign, here are five things from The Donalds formidable career to keep in mind.

(53,235 posts)WOW I was going to say the same thing.......ok so then what I said yesterday
#7 - He is too much of a lone wolf. He can never work with Congress, because,
a. he has already called them out as do-nothing idiots, and
b. they would do anything to see him fail, after he called them as do-nothing idiots.
He wants to handle everything, be involved in everything. Just like Sarah Palin, he wants to run all phases of the government.....
and besides, he's an asshat......
