Like a scene in the movie ′Groundhog Day′, America is set to hear another announcement by Donald Trump, this time in Las Vegas, Nevada. With its 2012 caucus to be held there this coming Saturday, speculation is that The Donald will endorse one of the GOP candidates. Less likely is the possibility that he will chuck away the upcoming season of ″Celebrity Apprentice″ and run for president himself. But who can say what really goes on inside the mind of Trump? One thing is for certain, he enjoys attention and once again he′ll be getting plenty of that.
So here we go again. Will Donald throw his hat in the ring and begin a run himself? Exit polling data from all of the four primaries and caucuses show that voters still want another option. Or will he endorse one of the GOP candidates? Which one? Mitt Romney? Newt Gingrich? Rick Santorum? I think we can pretty much rule out an endorsement for Congressman Ron Paul by Donald Trump, given past statements exchanged by these two men.
The deadline for getting on the ballots in the remaining state primaries is drawing near. If anyone is going to jump in, they have to do so now. Trump has the name recognition and the money to pull off such a late entry. He would have avoided all of the lame debates and tiresome retail politics. To run now would be an exercise in mass-marketing, something Trump could engineer with a well-paid publicity service.
What will Donald Trump say in Las Vegas on Groundhog Day 2012? Will he endorse one of the remaining GOP presidential candidates? Or will he finally pony-up and take a shot at the Big Chair himself? Whatever happens, we′ll be watching. What else is there to do?

Gotta give him credit for expertise at drawing attention to oneself. Once he endorses someone, the party is over for him so my guess is he will now form an exploratory committee for a 3rd party run, or something stupid like that he will have no intention of completing. If he does endorse someone, it will be Newt because he will at least get a few interviews out of it.

All the buzz this morning is that Trump will indeed endorse Gingrich.

He and Newt at least share similar family values.

It’s Lost Vegas—Trump may bet on DB Cooper
LMAO

I would be surprised if Trump endorsed Newt after all his railing against venture capitalism. Trump is an opportunist, he’s going to endorse the guy he things is going to win.

I fail to see why everyone needs to have pizza with him or why his “endorsement” even matters.
Is anyone really going to cast their vote for someone because he says so?
Maybe he throws a few fundraisers, other than that I don’t know what this is all about.

Anyone at the table who eats pizza with a knife and fork loses brings more questions to my mind than it can handle

Eats pizza with a knife and fork (a crime here in NYC) AND wears a squirrell on his head.

Well, actually the squirrel is his.
Forgot which show it was but he let them yank on it.
Since all that hair is actually rooted whats even stranger is having it styled so he looks like Calista Gingrich`

What makes more sense than a guy who eats pizza with a knife and fork endorsing a guy who takes the cheese off his pizza!
I used to really like Donald Trump up until the second season of “Celebrity Apprentice” when he robbed Annie Duke, the poker queen, of the victory and gave it instead to Joan Rivers. Later I learned that Rivers is tight with Donald’s sister, making me suspect that the fix was in all along.
I have ZERO respect for Trump after today and he gets added to ‘The List’ along with Ann Coulter and the rest. That list keeps getting longer and longer!

Chris Matthews had the best line of the evening so far, disappointed that Trump did not place a tiara upon Romney’s head and declaring him the winner of the pageant.

Ya know, I’m 55 years old and most likely the most immature 55 year old there is.
So it has to be pretty bad when I’m fed up with these ass holes and their petty games.
How can any man with any pride run around repeating something absolutely out of context.
Does anyone think for one second that a presidential candidate would say he doesnt care about poor people ?
I heard it the first time he said it and told myself “oh sht, here we go again”.
And sure enough these fcking morons milk it.
I volunteer at two food banks and I dont worry about poor people.
Know why ?
Because I care for them and make sure each ones got a weeks worth of food.
Poverty in America is a lavish existence in most countrys.
Smile, say cheese, the whole the fckin worlds laughing at us

Does anyone think for one second that a presidential candidate doesn’t know there are 50 and not 57 states? Of course not, but it’s an election year, and those opposed will grasp at every straw, every misspeak, every gaffe. It’s what we as a nation tend do these days and I think it sucls. On ALL sides.
