1. condicomments are welcome
the rest of it was pretty good, too

The major, self-promoting capitalist of our time, and he trashes our GOP president. Choice!

23. Me too - I have hated her since day one. I truly believe she
could have stopped 9-11. She freely admitted that she
was warned of a "regular" highjacking. She did nothing.

Getting down to basics - if she had beefed up all
security, in prep for a regular highjacking - those
guys may have not gotten on the plane. If they
didn't get on those planes - no 9-11.

If she had done all that, and somehow they slipped
through anyway, I would have more respect for her.

2. He is one of the biggest hams of all time, but
he is pretty good at sizing up people and he has Bush and his incompetent cohorts pegged spot on..

3. Hit the nail on the head with that one!
He is a complete and total ham! But, the thing is -- he really does seem to be enjoying what he does, as he says in the clip. Almost to the point of derision, but whatever. He is downright entertaining!

5. He's not a dope
In fact, that was one of the most cogent assessments of Iraq and this Administraion I have ever heard.

14. Exactly..
... for those who call trump a RW nut job and attention whore, I'd like for you to name one goddamned senator who has nailed Iraq the way he did. They can get all flowery and erudite, but as for a clear explanation of where we are and how we got there, I haven't heard a better one, period.

7. Given a choice of Trump and many of the other "front-runners" for pres., I'd probably
vote for him. At least he knows how to run a successful business.

10. Straight talk from a high-profile guy, w/out a lot of hemming and hawing. Refreshing. nt

11. Trump is still a douchebag. He is just realizing what should have been obvious 4 years ago

12. I wasn't totally enamoured with his
opinion of Rudy. Was as close to an endorsement as you can get.

16. Yeah he's so brave for coming out against Bush in 2007...
Give me a break.

He would deserve credit if he would have said this after 9/11 or the Iraqi invasion.

17. Better late than never
I'd rather he open his yap now, than not at all - or worse, come out in support.

Pathetic gesture? Sure. But it's still a gesture.

18. Trump is the kind of guy that sees a parade going down the street,
runs out in front of it, and claims to everyone that he's been leading it all the way!

21. I have heard him over the years trashing bush, little by little,
now he's got the whole thing wrapped up. Remember, after 9/11, we were the only
people in the country who saw through the creep. I remember vividly that only
16 % DID NOT support him. Just look on the bright side, we here, are in the top
16% of the population in intelligence !

19. He's stating what the investment czars have held for years
It's a myth that investors love Repubs.
While I'm sure they like cuts on capital gains taxes (undelivered promise), they don't like the muted economy that comes with supply side politics.

The message board at Yahoo Finance reads like DU when this admin is mentioned.

Here's a random example that took me two seconds to find: (it's unmoderated, so be forewarned)

22. Interesting. I think there is no ideology involved - just bottom line.
could be a nazi and if people were making money - it wouldn't matter.
