Donald Trump Booed At White House Correspondents' Dinner
Edited on Sat Apr-30-11 10:28 PM by Lasher

Donald Trump didn't appear to have many fans upon arriving to the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner on Saturday.

The Wrap reports that the media mogul was greeted by a round of "boos" upon arriving to Washington's Hilton Hotel with his wife, Melania:

After giving a brief interview with a group of several of media outlets, Trump -- who was invited to the event as a guest of the Washington Post -- walked away to a chorus of audible boos from the media members on the press line. (And it wasn't because they wanted to hear Trump

While waiting in line on the red carpet, Trump told the Wall Street Journal's Washington Wire that he wouldn't be afraid to give President Barack Obama a piece of his mind that evening, should the two have a chance to speak. "He's gotta get tough with all the nations that are ripping off the U.S.," such as China, he told the Journal he would say to the president.

1. Trump is a real sicko.
It's scary to think he may be the leading nomination for the Republicans.

2. That's not scary, it's an appealing possibility.
Orly would be a perfect running mate. They would get about 30% of the vote in the general election.

3. Neuro-transmitters are not firing in his head - or doesn't anyone around him tell
him that people everywhere know that he buys and sells products made in China. How can the simplest fact get twisted in his head and why does he repeat it each day. So far, he is a three issue candidate. Birth certificate with him as hero, China, nations ripping us off. Lots of specifics on the first, none on the third.

4. Is That A Fact? Are Trump's Products Made In China?......
If so - that would be the final nail in his presidential coffin. How can we verify that?

6. He admits it. Might as well, it's right there on the clothing labels.
