I was curious as to what you think of Donald Trump and why you feel that way? I now he has been in the media lately because of the Miss America thing and the war of words with Rosie O'Donnell. He is not my favorite person really. I admire what he has done business wise. However, I think he is kida mean and always has to have the last word! Tell me what you think of him....IF you even think of him!

I personally don't like him. I'd prefer Richard Branson a lot more because we share the same passion. Richard is an explorer/adventurer for new possibilities. Trump is just your typical rich kid. Trump grew up from a wealthy family, he went to NY alone hoping to make a name for himself, that he did but it wasn't w/o the knowledge of the people he worked with that his dad is a millionaire. They worked with Trump because they know about his rich father and not because of Trump's abilities. Sure, people will say he has a savvy hand in the corporate business but when you check his statistics they're not at all impressive. Most of his properties aren't his own now, they're dominated by his shareholders. He barely owns anything anymore. He's also very arrogant when he talks. I knew that when he said that the reason why he bought this beauty pageant show is because people want to just see attractive women and the attractive women will always win. Owtch, what a blow to the ego for the contestants that lost. So that means they're unattractive?! What more to the women who didn't even qualify for the pageant?! What are they? Butt ugly? Richard Branson for me. I've met him. He's very approachable and truly kind. His hair is also natural, I don't know if Trump's are. All in all, Trump is just another trust fund kid who got the credit and attention through because of the popularity of his father. Hey, I would be successful too if my dad was extremely rich and popular amongst the corporate world. Even if I didn't bring a cent with me to look for a job or business partner I'm sure I could get one with no problem.

With all that has gone on with him and ol' big mouth, he has shown he has no class what-so ever. He did not handle himself as a grown adult. He ranted and made such personal attacks. Just plain low.
