Donald Trump Bows Out of Presidential Race – Good Riddance!

Donald Trump, ever the proud man, announced today that he was NOT going to run for president even though he felt he would have won the general election.

But some insiders say that NBC’s announcement yesterday that the network was prepared to recast the bad haired goofball on his own “Celebrity Apprentice” reality show was the real reason behind his exit.

Trump told reporters,

"I maintain the strong conviction that if I were to run, I would be able to win the primary and ultimately, the general election. I have spent the past several months unofficially campaigning and recognize that running for public office cannot be done half-heartedly. Ultimately, however, business is my greatest passion and I am not ready to leave the private sector."

Really? Donald, did you really think the country would vote for you? Is your pride and ego that big?

Others point to his awkward firing by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway last month, and the grass roots effort in Indiana to oust him from the prestigious job of Pace Car driver as another reason.

Others say that behind the scenes NBC was growing concerned at all his hot air, and the effect it was having on “The Celebrity Apprentice” sudden ratings decline.

But the consensus growing around the country is that we just could not afford to have a president with such bad hair.

In the end we may never know what the final straw was.

But when Trump decides to tell us we’re sure it will be the biggest, most successful reason the HE has ever created.

Personal Note:

Deep down we all knew, and so did Trump, that he would never have a chance at the job of President. It’s just sad that he, and the media, had to waste so much of our time the last three months pretending like it could actually happen.

Donald – YOUR FIRED!

That felt good.
