Whatever label we give him, I agree with everything you're saying about his behavior and what type of person he is.

I especially agree with your last thought: the larger the audience, the bigger the stage, the more dangerous that type of person is.

And they attract like minds..Franklin Graham: Trump Might be Candidate of Choice


The Rev. Franklin Graham appears on "This Week with Christiane Amanpour." ABC News

The Rev. Franklin Graham, whose family has served as spiritual advisers to numerous prominent political figures, told "This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour that businessman Donald Trump might be his candidate of choice in 2012 and that he does not think former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will run for president.

"Donald Trump, when I first saw that he was getting in, I thought, well, this has got to be a joke," said Graham. "But the more you listen to him, the more you say to yourself, you know, maybe this guy's right."

"So, he might be your candidate of choice?" Amanpour asked.

"Sure, yes," Graham responded.

.........sadly ..ther's more.

Trump to Salon: "You will be very surprised"
In a hand-scrawled note, he takes issue with our reporting



By Justin Elliott Friday, Apr 22, 2011 15:39 ET

Donald Trump has written me a personal note promising that he will release information about his net worth -- and that he'll even do it earlier than is required by federal election law.

Trump's assistant sent me an email earlier today with the heading, "Message from Mr. Donald Trump." Attached was a scanned image of a print-out of my article -- "How Trump could run and still hide his net worth" -- with a hand-scrawled note from the Donald himself. [ http://www.salon.com/news/politics/war_room/2011/04/19/trump_financial_disclosure_timeline ]

Here's the note:



Trump's note centers on the personal financial disclosure form that declared presidential candidates must file:

Justin --

I have no problem -- I would, in fact, file early -- you will be very surprised.

Best wishes,

Donald Trump

(Well, at least he didn't call me a "loser.")

In any case, Trump's note does not actually address one of the main points of my piece: that he could legally stay in a kind of limbo -- a "testing the waters" phase of his presidential candidacy -- without triggering the 30-day deadline for personal financial disclosure that is imposed on declared candidates. In other words, as long as Trump doesn't explicitly say he's running -- and avoids certain campaign-like steps -- he can keep his net worth secret. And he may have good (or at least self-interested) reasons for not wanting to reveal his net worth.

Firing off messy personal notes to reporters is not new for Trump. He had a similar note dispatched to Vanity Fair's Juli Weiner the other day that smeared her as a "bad writer." [ http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2011/04/donald-trump-letter-201104 ]


Vanity FAIR .. AND there is MORE of this kind of stuff where he has written stuff to Juli Weiner.

Oh, and how did Trump see my article? Is he a Salon reader? I asked his assistant, Thuy Colayco.

"You'd be surprised," said Colayco. "Anything that gets written about him is forwarded to him."

Come to think of it, that's not surprising at all.

........Remember when Sara used to do this ?.. ANYTHING written about her, she felt compelled to respond with some such idiocy ..
