Ron Paul: Donald Trump Is ‘Arch Enemy’ of GOP

February 4, 2012 by VolubrjotrComments Off


NEW YORK (TheStreet) — Ron Paul‘s presidential campaign blasted Donald Trump Thursday just as the real estate magnate endorsed Mitt Romney for the Republican nomination.



Paul took Trump to task for his previous endorsements of Democrats Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Charles Rangel. In an email to reporters, Paul’s team plastered a photograph of Trump under the headline “Donald Trump to Endorse Harry Reid,” as it ridiculed the self-proclaimed Republican for his varied political history.


“Please explain to us why anyone would care,” the email said. “Please explain why [Nevadan voters] should consider the opinion of a billionaire from New York who endorsed the arch enemy of all Republicans in Nevada, and really the enemy of all Republicans in the U.S.”

The email, and Trump’s endorsement of Romney, comes two days ahead of the Nevada caucuses, where Paul’s campaign expected to compete for one of the top two spots in the contest.

The latest polls from Nevada have showed Paul in third place behind Romney and Gingrich, but state GOP Chairwoman Amy Tarkanian said in an interview that she thinks Paul and Romney would be the top two vote-getters.

This is laughable. Why does Ron Paul's campaign bother with this, or even care. Trump is a business man. I imagine he has properties in Nevada and I know he has them in NY so of course he is going to woo Reid and Rangel. Come on. Use some common sense here.

If Ron Paul keeps this up,I just may have to vote for him.

I'm just woundering when most in this country and on this board are going to see that the whole voting system is a scam from the top to the bottom and everyone involved.

I guess i'm the only one or one of the only ones that use their eyes to see.

And for those that say well you have to try and it will get better, think on this if every body in this country did not fund the dems or the reps. at all with no money what so ever from today on they would disapear in less then a year, they would sease to exsist.

so hold on to your pipe dreams because for some that seems to be all they have.

Have to agree with R.Paul on this one.

Anyone trumpeting the likes of Mitt McCain ... err Romney...has to make 'ya wonder.

Best hope is still for something resembling an open convention - whatever that means.

Ron Paul is using smear campaigns just like every other politician. Trump is a business man, no different from any other. They support whomever will benefit them, be it Democrat or Republican. What you need to ask is what Romney promised Trump for the endorsement. An ambassadorship? cabinet post? something else? I imagine somebody from the Gingrich campaign was talking to Trump and probably someone from Paul's campaign was doing the same. This is sour grapes.
