Talk about the pot and the kettle… During an interview on “Fox and Friends” this morning, the Donald made the following comments:
“Ron Paul’s not going to win. He’s got no chance.
You have a better chance right now of winning, and you’re not running, and so he’s not going to win.
He’s a joke candidate.
Here’s a man who doesn’t care if Iran has a nuclear weapon that can wipe out Israel. He doesn’t care. He says ‘Let them do whatever they want. They can make their own nuclear weapons’.
It’s ridiculous, so he’s not going to win, he’s not going anywhere, he’s cutesy, he’s got some nice, little slogans.”
Keep in mind, this is coming from a guy who teased a possible presidential run based in large part on taking the birther issue to absurd new heights, was savagely mocked to his face for it by President Obama and Seth Meyers, withdrew from the race, and recently teased the possibility of entering the race as a third party candidate just as Newsmax announced he would be moderating their Republican debate on December 27. By the way, he made the Ron Paul comments during an interview to promote his new book.
I’m not for or against Paul or Trump, but the timing and substance of Trump’s comments – coming shortly after Ron Paul’s campaign chairman blasted the Newsmax debate – is disingenuous. Trump has a propensity to inject himself in the political debate to generate buzz or attention for himself and his brand, whether it be his TV show or his book. Ron Paul has been in public office for decades and run for president three times. Who’s the joke candidate here?

If Ron Paul wins the nomination, Donald Trump will more than likely run as an independent. He has strongly hinted such.
I personally believe any candidate who goes to that Donald Trump debate should be ashamed of himself/herself. It is a disgrace for the Republican Party to have Trump as a moderator, especially considering Trump might run for President himself.
