I have to say, if he emerges, I would love to debate him. yesterday, in an interview, Donald Trump even had the nerve to make an outrageous comment about one of his fellow candidate's looks, so I'm sorry, I'm just, I'm not really willing to give Donald Trump credit for very credible, substantive beliefs.
