Requium for Trump

Now that Trump is out, Freepers...seem to like him as much as they did when he was exploring:

DaxtonBrown jumps right back in the arms of his old love:

Huckleberry gone. Trump gone. Barbour gone. Newt toast.

Palin was smart waiting to announce.

bassmaner kinda seems to be steeling himself for disappointment:

Mark my words ...

Because of Sarah Palin's ability to raise money and galvanize the base, the game changes when she decides whether she's running herself or whether she endorses someone else.

vortigern rememberst Trump fondly:

He took the Republicans to school on how to beat Obama. I hope at least one of them was paying attention.

Being a joke is like Obama's kryptonite! I hope no one else tries it!

Responsibility2nd as this crazy idea:

Hey - smirk at Trump all you want. But if it weren’t for Donald Trump - Osama bin Laden would still be alive.

Yeah, I’m serious.

Cicero thinks Trump was all part of Obama's master plan:

He did a great job bringing the birth issue to the fore. At first I thought he might be doing it for hillary.

But then we had Obie’s charade about a new COLB from Hawaii, and then we had the bin Ladin affair take the birth issue right off the news.

So, there’s at least some possibility that Trump was working for Obama the whole time.

Rational Thought has a worse thought out conspiracy theory:

The odd thing with Trump's announcement is the coincidence of the timing, shortly after Huckabee made his announcement. Hmmm.....

The entire thread moves on to who will be Trump's successor and the values of birtherism. It gets pretty heated. This primary is gonna be awesome.
