Well played, Ms. Shulman!:
"Today Donald Trump became the second major Republican presidential candidate to announce for president in two days," DNC press secretary Holly Shulman said in a statement. "He adds some much-needed serious that has been lacking from the GOP field, and we look forward to hearing more about his ideas for the nation."

First one to guess how they're going to win the jewels by looking stupider than before, please post here!
Of course, it could just be a way to milk the kock kows of some of their billions...

(13 posts)... of this campaign entertainment seriously just hasn't been paying attention. Nonsense from Trump or any other candidate, yes, including our favorite Hillary, has to be taken with a whole keg of salt. It's just so much window dressing to keep the masses watching and guessing and their minds off the serious problems that need to be addressed.
The 'fix' is already in ... it has been for years.
Hil will be the 'Democratic' nominee. America, Inc. will see to that. Jeb has already bought the Republican nomination - and he'll be 'elected.' America, Inc. will see to that too.
If, by some odd twist of fate (like getting the most votes and winning the most states), Hillary should come out on top, just as in 2000, the SC will again find a way to intervene and award the presidency to Jeb.
That's the 'fix' WE are in.
