Trump says eyeing America's top job, again

(Reuters) - Outspoken real estate billionaire Donald Trump said on Tuesday he may seek the Republican presidential nomination for 2016, claiming he wants to undo President Barack Obama's legacy.

Trump had toyed with the idea of running for the 2012 Republican nomination but pulled out months before the primary, saying he was not ready to leave the private sector.

"It is something I would certainly look at. You know why? I'm unhappy with the way things are going in America," he said in a telephone interview ahead of a speech at the "Eggs & Politics" forum at St. Anselm College in New Hampshire - an event that tends to feature presidential hopefuls.

I don't want either of them in the news! At first I thought this could be fun, a big joke on the GOP...and then I remembered Palin and how barfy and scary THAT was!

He is like the side show clown with the rat's nest wig, floppy shoes, ear to ear mouth, marching around the circus ring, beating his own drum and attempting to distract the audience who are trying hard to watch the main attractions.

Annoying, but harmless and semi amusing.
He will go away as soon as they bring out the rings with the fire. This clown cannot stand the heat, as we've seen every election year.

The man looks weirder than a circus clown, and his "ideas" are equally weird.

This country is stolen from us, and the ravaging will get much, much worse. There will be lots and lots of shiny things to distract the masses.
