Trump's announcement?

Newsmax is saying that Trump will make an announcement during the season finale of the Celebrity Apprentice on May 22nd.

I've always said if there's one thing that shows the kind of gravitas necessary to be president, it's announcing your run on a show called "Celebrity Apprentice."

Read the article if you really want to get a chuckle. I love the way conservatives are twisting themselves into a pretzel to justify Trump's candidacy. Newsmax is way conservative. It couldn't be more right wing if it tried. It's notoriously "out there" on some issues--so much so that they aren't even quoted directly as a source by mainstream conservatives because they would be laughed out of the room.

But they do serve a purpose, and this article is a good example.

This article is a how-to-justify-him piece, based on conservative principles. Yes, he hasn't sounded like a conservative his entire life, but (wink, wink) people that know him say he has always been one secretly. Sure, he's a celebrity, but he doesn't drink (wink, wink) so he's not like those other celebrities. Yes, he's had a few female issues (wink, wink), but he's always been a model father.

Good luck with that.
