Here is the complete text of a very short article in today’s Florida SunSentinel:

Trump says he’s serious about run for president

This time, Donald Trump says, he really means it.

The billionaire real estate mogul said in and interview Wednesday that he is “more serious” than ever about pursuing a run for the White House in 2016.


Hey, why not?

Why not a guy, who among his notable accomplishments was to file for corporate bankruptcy, not just once, but four times! — in 1991, 1992, 2004 and 2009 — and to be a leader of the ridiculous “birther” movement (that claimed Obama is not a born U.S. citizen)?

Why not a guy whose image is braggadocio on steroids? Why not a guy who is an adulterer? Why not a guy whom a judge ruled was personally liable for running an unlicensed business school?

Given these qualifications, I’d still vote for Trump if the only alternatives were Ben Carson, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Lindsey Graham, Rick Perry, Scott Walker, Ted Cruz, Bobby Jindal, Peter King and Sarah Palin.

At least in Trump, there is no doubt about where he stands: He loves the uber wealthy (especially himself), and despises those having less than he claims he has.

The rest of the bunch also love the wealthy, but pretend to care — really, really care — about you (while urging increases in your FICA tax and decreases in your Social Security benefits, Medicare and Medicaid coverages and cuts in poverty aids).

And oh, by the way. Trump won’t run.

When you run for President, you have great difficulty suing people for defamation, one of Trump’s tactics. And you have to disclose your finances, dirty laundry and all. And you have to answer questions about your taxes and tax shelters (Hello, Mitt Romney). And you have to stop renting your name to collect a salary.

No, the Donald will make a great deal of noise, mouth silly claims, insult people, file lawsuits, and in the end, generate publicity for his embarrassingly awful TV show, featuring such classy notables as Dennis Rodman, Geraldo Rivera and a “Real Housewives of Atlanta” person — a show that (to paraphrase H.L. Menkin) has succeeded by not underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

Run, Donald run. You’ll make a perfect Republican candidate and an even better President. What could be more comforting than to have you sitting in the Oval Office with your finger on the red button?

Send in the clowns.
