    Will Donald Trump's Presidential Run Ruin His Image?

    Donald Trump is saying some pretty controversal things, even as he campaigns as an undeclared candidate for President of the United States.  Do you think Donald Trump will ruin his image as a successful businessman that people revere as he makes controversial statements during the campaign that bring his character into question?

    It doesn't matter. Trump has turned himself into a brand name that he licenses to just about anybody for the right number. The more his name is in the news, the more people will pay.

    It will be interesting to see if he actually runs - if I am not mistaken should he do so, he will have to step down from having any position or title at his businesses.

    So will his egomania prevail (run for president) or greed (keep in control and at the helm of his "licensing" empire)...

    Interesting take lime light power.  This self promotion strategy might be backfiring on Trump already.  Group just announced that they will stop advertising on Trump's Apprentice show because of the controversial statements that Trump is now making.  I think this who episode might really hurt Trump's public image.

    No.  He's still the same old bully he's always been and proud of it, too.  Look at how he crowed big time about getting Obama to 'hand over' his birth certificate!  The only people who 'revere' Trump are the people he MAKES MONEY FOR!

    Trump is not running for president..you just think he is. He is doing what he is doing for a purpose and when that purpose is fulfilled, he will step away. Just wait and see. WB

    It's all about marketing and money, nothing more, nothing less. . .

    Trump was a controversial figure before, so it's hard to imagine that he would do or say anything to change how people already view him. I doubt that he will make a serious run for President anyway. This is mostly about self-promotion.

    Donald Trump will not run for President.  Even he is not that dumb.
