Predictions on when Trumps ridiculous presidential aspirations burst?

I reluctantly watched the "Donald" on his obnoxiously self promoting show "the celebrity apprentice" the other night. It's no wonder he has an inflated ego and thinks for a second he could be taken seriously as a pres. candidate. Everyone, "celebrities", fawning over him.. praising him...surrounded in "luxury" and he enters the faux corporate board room flanked by his lackey exec and awkward dim mutant son... It's all self promotion and ego theater.. no substance. just like regurgitating the birther myth.. Really?! HE's a poster child for the problem the American people have with big business/corporations/marketers- he epitomizes the worst indulgences of the rich and capitalism- just scratch the surface and he's done...ruthless, dishonest, morally corrupted with fake generosity, money only object obsessed, networking and shamelessly self promoting with rich buddies, creating the luxury "brand" of hotels and apartments for the rich..living in luxury while everyone else suffers, exploiting lax business bankruptcy laws to his advantage to build his "empire", multiple divorces and trophy wives, bubble burst "Bloviating" hairpiece.. look it up Dodo...

1. I originally thought the last episode of The Appentrice. Now I think
he'll drag this charade into the summer.

2. perhaps as with fred thompson, soon after he is actually a candidate.
the IDEA sounds great in some weird out there theory to these people. but i think the reality would be a little less rosy.

4. yes IDEA is the right word... if u believe his own delusional propaganda he sounds great
good businessman who will stop America from being "screwed" by the rest of the world. I for one hope he does get in.. just to see him squirm at the vetting process...and actually have to debate instead of bloviate to adoring audiences...and to see the Republicans squirm at him shaking up the race...

6. that's true. right now when anyone asks him about policy he interrupts them
and he seems to only be interested in talking about all the 'interesting' things he's got about the birth certificate and Obama which of course he can't tell you yet... and how he's going to bully all the other countries and tell china to bleep off. not sure how he thinks that will help us any, but he refuses to have an actual real discussion about anything. right now he can get away with that but it will get old fast and people are going to expect better answers.

3. I predict....
he will bow out after his show ends in June. He may drag it out another week or two, because his ego loves the attention.

8. It will all fall apart when it is revealed the "Trump" who bankrupted so many times
is actually a boil on the underside of a hideous wig.

10. he's actually PROUD of how he used the bankruptcy laws to his benefit.. 4 times..
don't think that will sit well with the American RW pubic(sic) at large..
happy to see him stir the pot and reveal how ignorant the conservatives are for supporting him in polls

9. He's sucking all the oxygen out of the room and that will cripple the GOP bench.
I say let him wheeze and bloviate away.

11. 19th of May
According to Lawrence O'Donnell that is when NBC is going to tell him he has to give it up or lose his new show for this year. O'Donnell was very sure it would be the end of the Presidential run by Trump...

14. that makes sense.. i'm guessing O'Donnell nailed it.
until then he'll keep unfurling his T-Rump "brand" billowing sails and bloviating winds of controversy for every ounce of free publicity he can squeeze out of it.. The amazing floating hairpiece of Gotham City will keep blowing...then at the last minute.. dump his reality check load on his unsuspecting supporters... and wash over the ensuing sh*t pile with glossy new tv promotions and business ventures... and the cycle continues...

12. As soon as he has to file a financial disclosure form
Until then, who wouldn't want to have all those on-air personalities kissing your ass? Nobody asks any hard questions, and they all practically swoon with delight at all the bombast, great bombast, the greatest bombast, more bombast than the world has ever seen before! from T Rump.

As soon as he has to file papers that would allow people a peek into his personal financial affairs, T Rump will suddenly remember that he has, like, a gazillion other things to do next year, each more important than running for president.

15. The second someone calls him on his bullshit
I'd love for him to go on Rachel's show...

"Can you tell me what's going on with your investigation into the president's birth certificate?"
'When I tell you it's going to be earthshattering.'
"Then you have found out the president was born in Hawaii. Get the hell out of my studio."
