If you’ve been following the Presidential race so far, you probably are already aware of this juicy tidbit: Donald Trump is running for President.
Yes that’s right. The multi-billion dollar man is placing his hat in the race and the reactions are fairly mixed. Trump is running for the Republican party and announced his plans to run in his atrium at the Trump Tower on 5th Avenue in NYC. His reason for running?
“Only someone really rich can help this economy.”
Trump is known as a real estate tycoon and reality TV star of his show The Apprentice. He had been toying with the idea to run as a Republican candidate in the Presidential race for years. He often brought the idea up, but never acted on it until now!
Trump is taking this election and nomination seriously. He promised to disclose all his financial documentation on time to the government with no qualms about it. In fact, he held up a paper that provided evidence of his net worth which totals 8.7 billion dollars.
Even though he’s running for the right wing, Trump has been known to donate money to both parties – including the Clintons – one of whom (Hillary Clinton) he expects to run against. He was once labeled a liberal for his support for universal health care. However with his big britches, odds are his fiscal policies will be anything, but democratic.
Trump made bold claims at the end of his 45-minute speech announcing his candidacy: “Sadly the American dream is dead. But if I get elected president, I will bring it back bigger, and better, and stronger than ever before.”
What does the public say about this?
A whole lot.
