Shut Up Donald Trump! Joy Behar Was Right About You

Posted: 04/27/11 06:30 PM ET

No sooner did President Obama try to shut you up by revealing his long form birth certificate, than you went on to impune his intelligence!

The ladies of The View, particularly Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg, erupted at your latest Obama insults, and I practically stood up and cheered

President Obama actually took time out of trying to boost our flagging economy, fighting three wars, reduce the deficit AND be a good husband and dad, to waste time having a press conference April 27, where he unveiled his long-form birth certificate.

Because of YOU, Donald, tax dollars were needlessly spent on sending a lawyer to Honolulu on behalf of the President, to pick up his official long-form birth certificate.

Donald Trump, YOU are contributing to needless government spending and therefore, the deficit, because the President was pressured to do this by YOU! President Obama had to shut you up after you relentlessly pounded away at this red-herring issue.

Then as if the birth-certificate issue wasn't enough, you also attacked the President's intelligence.

"I heard he was a terrible student, terrible. How does a bad student go to Columbia and then Harvard?" you yammered in an interview on April 25. "I have friends who have smart sons with great marks, great boards, great everything and they can't get into Harvard," you said. "We don't know a thing about this guy. There are a lot of questions that are unanswered about our President."

Donald Trump has done a valuable service for the country. He showed that a third to half of the current Republican Party will support a candidate whose only issue is a crazy racist theory that everybody understands is dishonest. Appalling, but it's something we needed to know.

The question is what to do about it - do we have to tell the Republicans that they won't get any more votes until they clean up their act? They built their current power base on polarizing the country and inciting hatred against the Democrats, and even Karl Rove is starting to get concerned that it's going to backfire on him.

Trump supported outsourcing in 2005 and now he has changed his tune. So is he bring in back the operations he has outsourced?

Look at your companies and practice what you are now preaching.

Donald Trump says that outsourcing creates jobs in the long run
Posted by Dominic Basulto
In his Trump Blog, Donald Trump bucks the conventional wisdom when it comes to IT outsourcing. According to Trump, outsourcing actually creates jobs in the long-run:

"We hear terrible things about outsourcing jobs--how sending work outside of our companies is contributing to the demise of American businesses. But in this instance I have to take the unpopular stance that it is not always a terrible thing...

Last year, Nobel Prize-winning economist Dr. Lawrence R. Klein, the founder of Wharton Econometric Forecasting Associates, co-authored a study that showed how global outsourcing actually creates more jobs and increases wages, at least for IT workers. The study found that outsourcing helped companies be more competitive and more productive. That means they make more money, which means they funnel more into the economy, thereby, creating more jobs."

All this talk of the "long run" reminds us of the old economist joke from John Maynard Keynes: "In the long run... we're all dead."

Trump went to Wharton, a high quality business school that is not immune from taking the son of a wealthy real estate developer with contacts. When you don't have the knowledge to talk about the policies you attack the person and appeal to the worst in people. Trumps attack on China that has a billion people who are hard working and work cheap is another shoddy example of giving the simple minded Americans and enemy. It is companies like Walmart and Apple put their production over there.

Wharton is nothing more than a tricked-out trade school. Wharton graduates do not come away from that nstitution as well-rounded, educated people.

Donald Trump is not attacking the President's intelligence, he is raising the loaded issue of affirmative action by asking whether the President benefitted from it. The whole conflict about affirmative action, with all its resentments and rage, is about to burst into flames again. Donald seems to know how to light a fire.

The Donald is jealous because he could only get into the University of Pennsylvania. I'd like to see HIS grades! On the other hand, if you want to talk about how people got into wherever, how about George W. Bush? He got into Yale basically via the back door.....he was a legacy. They don't HAVE to be intelligent. Daddy and Grandpa just have to give the school a LOT of money. How he got into Harvard's business school is probably another story.

I agree about the shut up part, but the Prez paid for the airflight out of his personal monies, not public funds.
