jorgerodriguez · Veteran Member

If he can do better than the politicians who are all talk i say go for it.

KayleenBretz · Veteran Member

I don't think i would vote for him and no i don't think he will win.

Nic · Veteran Member

i would rather vote for a squirrel than obama.

I think that he's doing this for publicity, he obvious isn't involved enough in politics to become president.

Although the thought of Donald Trump being president rightfully makes us all cringe a bit: we must consider the candidate based upon the facts. Trump is an extremely successful business owner, creator of non-profits, and understands what it takes to lead a large group of people. For all technicalities and purposes, he is a reasonable candidate. However, because of his public figure status I do not believe he has a chance at winning due to his already over exposed lifestyle and unsavory toupee.

I have to agree with Maddy, yet again. Even though the idea of having Donald Trump as president of the United States is humorous, there is an abundance of reasons as to why he is qualified for the position. Unfortunately for Donald, his chances of winning this election are not very high because of the way America already perceives him, as a man with high maintenance "hair" that frequently utters the phrase "you're fired!".

I can't vote yet, but if I could, I'm not sure yet. I would need to know more about his plans, not just judge him off of his image on TV.

I would not vote for him. And I doubt he will win

bailliecarberry · Veteran Member

i feel like he wouldn't win because he doesn't seem like a serious man in my opinion

Trump appears to be serious about his commitment to the presidential bid but I don't think America will buy into it. Trump has switched party loyalties several times and would not earn my vote to be the nation's leader.

If he ran I would vote for him so quick! He is a great role model that would be a great leader.

katieannokeefe · Veteran Member

I don't think he models as a political figure but very successful in business which could get people to vote for him.

jade cravens · Veteran Member

NO I would not vote for him. I think the idea is a joke and he will NOT win.

I do not believe that Mr. Trump will win this election for numerous reasons:
1.) He is more a celebrity than a political figure
2.) He has an impression of being motivated by mere profit rather than the good of the people
3.) His signature line, "You're fired!" gives a negative image and can connect to him trying to put people out of jobs.

Although the last point may seem trivial, anything can matter when the votes are close.

I think he is a good candidate and i would vote for him because he is very successful in business and that could be what our country needs.
