Reminds me of a Knights of the Dinner Table scene where Bob and Dave are trying to impersonate a couple of temple acolytes and attempt to cover their inability to answer basic doctrinal questions with,“I tell the guard I’ve taken a vow of silence”.
Even though it was the former the last time?
Someone with a name, too?
Marco Rubio is the best bet in that regard. Paul, maybe.
Yeppers, all the people who freaked out over having a black president and have been beating the drum to build a radioactive, electric, gas-fired fence on the Mexican border are going to trip over themselves to vote for a Latino president.
Jeb Bush Is a Weak Frontrunner, says FiveThirtyEight.
Oh yeah, the excitement is palpable with both of them, isn’t it?
Does he have a Spanish version? ¡Jeb!
And who knew he was a Die Hard fan?: Jeb Bush's campaign website contains a 'Die Hard' surprise
Well, Gruber specifically.
So Donald Trump is officially running. He’s only a slightly more blatant clown than the rest of this crew.
So, who’s in?
Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry, Lindsey Graham, Ben Carson, George Pataki, Carly Fiorina, and now Donald Trump have declared their candidacies.
Bobby Jindal is scheduled to announce next week.
Of the expected candidates, that leaves Chris Christie, John Kasich, and, oddly enough, Scott Walker having not yet either declared their candidacy or having set a date for doing so.
Since Scott Walker is unquestionably running, and Christie and Kasich are likely to, that will give us a field of between 14 and 16 GOP candidates, assuming micro-candidates Bob Ehrlich, Jim Gilmore, and Peter King admit that nobody’s going to pay attention to them whether they run or not, and let their invisible campaigns lapse.
Aren’t Mark Everson and Jack Fellure officially announced candidates as well?
They are, but let’s just say they make the all-but-invisible Ehrlich and Gilmore look like major candidates by comparison.
Maybe I should classify them as nano-candidates. 
If Trump is officially running, at what point is he required to disclose financial information?
He’ll drop out the day before.
Trump’s announcement has led to people digging through his old tweets for comedy material. It’s a very, VERY rich seam. My current favorite from 2011:
Yes, The Donald actually commented on the state of Barney Frank’s nipples. The man is a marvel.
Just seen on Twitter: “Trump 2016: We Shall Overcomb.”
Is there something you’ve been wanting to tell us, Donnyboy?
Whoever tweeted that, I think they’ve won the Internets for today.
The New York Daily News headlines:
As seen here, which I came across in an article that claims he paid actors to attend his candidacy launch – though it does not say whether he then fired them.
