Opening Post is definitely very much tongue-in-cheek. Amazed at many contributing this thread as though Donald Trump was "SERIOUSLY" running for office - he has absolutely no intention of becoming POTUS. His value and contribution from the Republican side of things is that he is rich enough:

1) To be able to play his role
2) Say whatever he likes as for him there are no "political minefields"

Both of the above mean that Trump can say any outrageous thing he wants as a "potential" Republican Presidential hopeful - the Democrats have to respond and he can take them to areas and subjects that they would rather not address.

Trump's run for President is a decoy, a massive deception.
