Donald Trump speaking at CPAC may be a sign he is closer to announcing he is running for President. However, he's not ready to say one way or another. He did tell Politico he plans to make an announcement by June.
"The United States has become whipping post for the rest of the world -- the world is treating us without respect," said Trump. "The United States is becoming the laughing stock of the world. Whether we like it or don't like it, that's what's happening. I deal with people from China, I deal with people from Mexico. They cannot believe what they're getting away with."
Then he went on to discount Ron Paul's possible run at the presidency, which drew applause from the neocons in the audience. "Ron Paul cannot get elected ... I like Ron Paul ... But he has zero chance of being elected," said Trump. Isn't that for the people to decide? It seems to me he's a better choice that Mitt for Brains Romney who was the architect for Obamacare. Jeez! What are Republicans thinking there?
Of course, Trump didn't have kind words for the other Republicans. He described none of them as fantastic which is the reason he is willing to disrupt what he loves doing to run for President. He also stated if he becomes President, America will be respected again.
