CNN host calls out Donald Trump: ‘What’s traditional about being married three times?’

That's the problem with hypocrisy, it's very hard to justify. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

Likewise for his four bankruptcies.

Stop picking on The Donald. When a guy's digging his own political grave, it's better to just watch...with interest. It's fascinating and instructive.

If I heard correctly, CNBC announced that NBC has cancelled televising the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageant.

NBC is also being petitioned to cancel the "Celebrity Apprentice".

I love the spin he's putting on being dropped by NBC...

They wanted me to do The Apprentice...I told them I can't do The Apprentice and run for President at the same time. They also didn't like my remarks...which were true BTW...

I think he expected to enhance his brand by running for president and make billions of dollars but he may end up losing billions of dollars if he keeps doing what he does best/worst.

The money that Trump loses is other people's money.

I don't know if this is a law or just a generally followed rule that "tv celebrities" running for office cannot have their shows airing.

I recall when Schwarzenegger was running for Governor of CA they weren't allowed to air any of his films.

This link seems to suggest it revolves around ambiguity in a federal law ensuring equal airtime to all candidates.

It comes from the equal time doctrine.

Christie is officially in now.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/01/us...-campaign.html

But today, a staggering 55 percent of Republican primary voters say that they cannot envision voting for Mr. Christie, according to an NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll, a remarkable deficit from which to embark on a national campaign. The only candidate less palatable: Donald J. Trump, the bombastic developer-turned-reality television star.
