Sarah Palin Visits Donald Trump in New York

Sarah Palin’s bus tour of Americana took a side trip into the surreal Tuesday evening when she paid a visit to Donald Trump at his triplex apartment in New York.

Navigating West 56th Street in rush-hour traffic, Ms. Palin arrived around 6:30 p.m. by chauffeured black S.U.V. at Trump Tower, having abandoned her One Nation tour bus, presumably outside Midtown. She alighted with her young daughter Piper, posed for a picture with a tourist and hurried past two dozen reporters and photographers.

Donald Trump Still Not Done Pretending to Run for President

If you thought Donald Trump was done threatening to run for President, you obviously don’t know Donald Trump.

After Sunday night’s Celebrity Apprentice finale, I guess Trump realized he has nothing else to do, so he called into “Fox & Friends”. He expressed his disappointment with the current Republican nominees, saying that none of them can beat President Obama.

When asked why he made the decision not to run after weeks of pretending like he was going to, Trump said there were just too many sacrifices. Namely, not being able to say “you’re fired” without it having to go through Congress first.

“It was just a decision that I made, but who knows, stranger things have happened.”

I think the fact that even he acknowledges this whole thing as strange should get him denied as it is. Co-host Brian Kilmead clarified, “So you’re [saying]…you would not rule out a late entry if nothing pans out for the [Republicans]?”

“I would not rule it out, no, I would not rule it out.”

This is good news. Because it means we can expect more jokes at his expense. I wouldn’t even be disappointed if Obama gave up his career as President to mock Donald Trump full-time.

Trump won't run for president

Real estate mogul and television personality Donald Trump has decided against running for president.

Trump said Monday he has decided against seeking the Republican nomination to oppose President Barack Obama in next year's election. Trump told reporters he was confident he can win the nomination and defeat Obama but he was more content to stay in the business world.

Trump, who has in the past toyed with the idea of running for president, appeared to be more serious this time, actively speaking out and pressing Obama to release his birth certificate.

The Republican field was already growing crowded 18 months ahead of the election.

Former House speaker Newt Gingrich threw his hat in the ring last week, and Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty, Congressman Ron Paul, and former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney are poised to formally join the race.

One of the more popular would-be candidates, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, said Saturday on Fox News that he would not make a bid in 2012. Huckabee was a contender for the Republican nomination in 2008.
