   No his ego is WAY to big. The only thing he would run for is dictator of the universe.

   The only reason Trump would want that job is to engorge is ego even more! It would be a very bad idea!

   NO because he is into real estate, not into politics. He has too much on his plate to be mayor. New wife and new baby, businesses, two other children and 2 or 3 ex-wives. He’s too intelligent to go into politics. He has made his living in real estate business and should stay there. I’m sure he can give sound advice in certain areas though.

   I’m not the biggest Trump fan, but it’s pretty obvious that to get to his position, he’s either really lucky or a good businessman. He knows what decisions to make, and he knows not to run as a political figure. He also knows that being mayor of New York isn’t that easy, and he has a pretty full schedule as it is.
   No, Donald Trump is rather the guy that helps fund the mayor’s campaign and then makes a profit from it. He knows how to play the odds.

   Absolutely not, being Mayor means you have to care about the people who live in your city and Trump only seems to care about Trump. I’m sure he loves NY but you have to care about the people first, otherwise, what’s the point?

   He could run, but he can’t hide. Ego too big to win.

    Heaven Forbid. I don’t think even New York is big enough to house his gigantic ego. He better stick to game shoes or whatever that thing is he sponsors.

    The Donald’s sister is a Federal Appeals Court Judge.

    I doubt that he would be interested at this point – he’s not Michael Bloomburg. Maybe in another 10 years – perhaps he may reconsider. After all, Ed Koch was mayor up into his 70′s.

    No. He’d put too many people on the Unemployment lines.

    He doesn’t have the Guiliani look.
