1. opportunity missed, cheap pandering bungled

running for prez? you should not admit to being susceptible to a buy-off. really weak sauce there, mr. trump.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

19. That cumstain tRump is "weak sauce" alright... but then, I'd drop out of the race for less than half that amount... only $2 billion!

[moriah]

2. Only half of his alleged net worth?

[spanone]

3. an inter-galactic embarrassment.

4. "What kind of person do you think I am?"

"We've already established that, now we're just arguing over the price."

[politicaljunkie41910]

8. My thoughts exactly. The classic John and Pro joke.

[roamer65]

5. $5B?

Hell...that's cheap. The moron Bu$h cost us trillions.

[Initech]

6. Who wants to start the Go Fund Me page?

[Cracklin Charlie]

7. Don't give that con man any money...

Make him play this out and be humiliated on election day.

He has earned that.

[HubertHeaver]

9. He has named his price. It's up the the party bigwigs to negotiate. Bottom line,

he's outta there.

[Doctor Jack]

10. I'm sure they can talk him down

He is a really shitty negotiator. He would probably settle for $40 and a box of old Playboys

[Midnight Writer]

11. The mentality of the super rich. "10 billion ain't enough, I need 5 billion more"

[tblue37]

18. He probably is not a billionaire, and Mark Cuban (and a court deposition

from years ago) suggests that he probably has less than $200 million available as accessible cash.

[Jack Rabbit]

12. Not that I respect Trump supporters

. . . but that must make them feel like a kick in the teeth,

[safeinOhio]

13. Will he get a

1099 with that.

[Liberal_in_LA]

14. Wow. Anything for money

[davidn3600]

15. For $5 billion? Who the hell wouldn't?

[TeamPooka]

16. How about you just lose for free? nt

[BlueMTexpat]

17. What if this has all been

a Don-the-Con scam to raise $$$$ for himself?

Well that, and to begin his own TV channel?

But I love the comment about losing for free.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

20. Where would this $5B come from?
