And who expects Trump, a rich hypocrite (on so many other issues), to spend his cash when easy money is so available? Easier just to change the con artist's ploy about never being open to rank bribery.

While Donald Trump continues to be a loud-mouthed celebrity's gaffe, Jeb Bush's feigned outrage over Trumps comments of John McCain not being a "war hero" puts him in the same category— a sanctimonious fraud.

Just who we would have wanted to enter the race for president recently made his announcement in a full showbiz extravaganza. Donald Trump, the self-promoting "hypester," is starting his run—let the lunacy begin!
