The latest polls are out, and just as I predicted, Im leading the Republican presidential race by a wide margin. You might be wondering how that could be. After all, its hardly been a month since I entered the field and Ive already alienated Americas largest immigrant population, seen dozens of my high-profile business deals implode one after the other, and publicly insulted a national heros military service, all while not offering a single viable policy idea. But none of that matters at all, and my candidacy continues to surge forward, because none of younot a single one of youcan look away. Not even for a second.
Admit it: You people want to see just how far this goes, dont you?
My campaigns just barely begun and Ive already got you begging for more. Sure, you can say you oppose me or that you dont even take me seriously. But let me ask you: How many articles have you read about Ted Cruz lately? How many news segments have you watched on Bobby Jindal? Or Rand Paul? But if those stories have the name Donald Trump in them, well, look who suddenly cant get enough.
The thing is, Ive got all of you eating out of my hand and I havent even released a single campaign commercial yet. Dont look me in the eye and tell me you dont want to stick around and see what that looks like, because you and I both know these ads are going to be absolutely incredible. Ill be standing there projecting my best presidential air, saying Im Donald Trump, and I approve this message, and you wont be able to take your eyes off it.
