Guess he had his moment of fun. Fool for all the people who took him seriously.

No, he got what he wanted out of it. That and I am sure that he somehow made some money along the way.

Maybe just me but...

If he had...
"the strong conviction that if I were to run, I would be able to win the primary and ultimately, the general election",
...he would run.

He's not bowing out because he's "not ready to leave the private sector." This is the real reason...
"Trump's support for the Republican nomination fell from 26 percent in April to just 8 percent in early May"

Getting turned into a laughing stock by Obama's speech at the White House Correspondent's dinner.

Hmm...He probably did make money along the way though.

Plus he got his ego stroked that people actually took him seriously. Priceless.

Awww........ I was hoping for a Palin vs Trump battle....

We won't see the perfect kook ticket Trump/Palin.

NBC renewed his show. He got exactly what he wanted.

Damn, I bet Obama is sad by this. I mean if his competition for re-election was trump. He would have been a shoe in for sure.

With his money, he doesn't need NBC to have a show. He's an egomaniac and I absolutely believe he wanted to be president. But he's proved that he's just not smart enough for the job. I guess turning daddy's bankroll into a fortune on the New York realestate market was more about luck than brains. This is a good-news story for America. The American people have had their say and they've said "We won't throw our support behind a fucking birther". Sorry, Don, you tied your horse to the wrong cart.
