Donald Trump; I'm not a believer

BRUCE A. BRENNAN BLOG FROM THE WORLD AND MY MIND
The news as I see it and the views as I want them.

DATE: January 7, 2011.  January 7 is …Old Rock Day. Let’s hope it is a diamond.

Yesterday I inadvertently wrote ‘Sandy’ where I should have written Roberto. Sandy did not spit in an umpire’s face. He seemed to be a better person than his brother. Sorry Sandy.

The Alomar blog stirred up quite a few responses. Few agree with me. I am still right.

Elizabeth Edwards died with her middle finger pointed up and at her husband, John. Her Will left everything to her children and nothing to her husband. This may not be unusual but in this case it was a last point of defiance. Way to go Elizabeth. The following may be why she publicly shamed her husband.

John Edwards has proposed to his mistress Rielle Hunter, The National Enquirer reported Thursday. A source told the Enquirer that the disgraced former senator asked Hunter to marry him shortly after issuing a statement last year admitting that he was the father of her daughter, Frances Quinn. Edwards, a one-time presidential candidate, "is buying a luxury $3.5 million beachfront home where they can live happily ever after with their love child," the Enquirer said.
The couple will wed this summer, according to the tabloid. It was the Enquirer that first broke the story of the affair while Elizabeth Edwards was alive. He is buying a 3.5 million dollar home; perhaps he doesn’t need her money.

Donald Trump is thinking about running for the White House. He has been telling those close to him he will seek the Republican nomination. He views his business background as a plus. I believe he is misreading the public’s sentiment on this one.

Trump’s personal life has been a cartoon. He tries to upgrade his companion’s with younger, better looking women every so often. This will not win the female vote. He will not get the barber or hair stylist vote with his haircut. Most importantly, his business acumen is not that great. His father was wealthy. He started out as a rich man. He was involved when the Trump wealth increased but it occurred at a time everyone else was increasing wealth by merely owning something. He has put several businesses in Bankruptcy, including a Casino in Atlantic City. His ego causes him to name everything after himself and he cannot stay off television promoting himself. We don’t need a Circus Master running the country. We need a serious person with serious ideas and real depth. Ron Popeil would do a better job than Donald Trump at running this country.

Bill Daley is now working for President Obama. This is like a baseball trade. Chicago gets Rahm Emanuel while the White House gets Bill Daley. I think Chicago lost that trade. Bill Daley knows how quickly Chicago is going to go downhill once his brother is not wielding the power. Like him or hate him, right or wrong, things got done while Richard Daley has been in power. He is the last of the big city power machines. It is sad but it is time to go.

It appears civil disobedience is alive and well in Maryland, near Washington D.C. These folks have to realize they make a better point if they do not injure or kill innocent civilians. If they do kill or injure innocent civilians, they are terrorists not activists.

Illinois demolished Northwestern last night. The Illini are a legitimate NCAA college basketball team with a chance to go deep into the tournament. Good Luck Illini.
