Ew.

[RAAAAAAAANDY]

I can't wait until Trump flames out in spectacular fashion. It's going to be incredible. The things that come out of his mouth as his campaign explodes will be all-timers.

please let this happen

Trump running for Pres = looking to get a new TV gig
Cuban as VP = looking for ratings boost for Shark Tank

[BitterJim]

How long before trump would decide to leave Cuban high and dry by heading to LA instead?

Aw Mark Cuban...you're supposed to be better than that.

While we are at it, how about Kim Kardashian for Secretary of State?  Perhaps, Dog the Bounty Hunter for Attorney General.

I think we now have a clear understanding of the level of wealth at which a person starts to lose touch with reality.

Edit: or, better put, the level of economic inequality at which point a society starts to lose touch with reality.

I think we now have a clear understanding of the level of wealth at which a person starts to lose touch with reality.

I once read that the optimal amount of money made annually was something like $80,000, as far as your happiness quotient is concerned.

Make that $75,000 in 2010.

Ha! Always such a circus around Trump.

As a liberal, as much as I'd like to see Trump derail the Republicans, the fact of the matter is that he'll likely flame out before the primaries really roll around. 

To give a little context from last election, Herman Cain was a huge hit in the summer with his 9-9-9 plan, Rick Santorum won 11 primary states, and Rick Perry was at one point the front runner.

ah yes, the joys of popular democracy wherein the will and whims of the masses rule.

A bit of a misleading title in that it implies that he might actually take the job, but this is really the key part

"Would I consider?" Cuban responded. "Yes."

but

"Would I do it. Probably not," he continued. "I'm not cut out for politics. At least [the] way they are now. Maybe in the future if Trump truly impacts how the game is played."

So if the answer No, are you really considering it?
