BWAH-HA-HA!!! Trump stiffs Iowa Republicans!
"Don't expect Iowa Republicans to do a favor anytime soon for Donald Trump.

The real estate magnate left the state party in a lurch yesterday when he backed out of its June 10 Lincoln Day Dinner fundraiser. He had been chosen to headline the event while he was still exploring a presidential campaign. But following his announcement Monday that he will not be a candidate in 2012, Trump announced he was reneging on the dinner.

The party said in a statement Thursday evening that it will be canceling the dinner altogether due to Trump's withdrawal--and noted for good measure that state Republicans were deeply insulted by the mogul's decision to bow out at the 11th hour."

6. Actually, they've gotten Michelle Bachmann to appear as the keynote
speaker at a state fund-raising dinner next Thursday (different event from the one Trump was scheduled to appear at), where she's expected to formally announce her candidacy! :rofl:

10. But the Lincoln Dinner is one they hang great
significance on because it is their one claim to being anti-racist.

8. No kidding. They were being family values hypocrites for cozying up to Trump in the first place.
Trump changes wives like underwear and the family values crowd was swooning over him.

7. They might as well get used to it.
This is typical behavior for The Donald. He never was going to run for president and he never will.

12. Hahaha, I can't believe anyone actually thought he would run.
I knew from the first day that he wasn't going to run, so I'm surprised so many people took him seriously for even one minute.

14. Trump was so angry when Seinfeld canceled on him. I guess it is ok when Trump does the canceling.
