Donald Trump for President in 2012? Billionaire says he's ready to spend $600 million on campaig
If he wins he'll probably have a psychotic episode which may be terminal after he sees the quality or lack thereof of the Public workers.
Donald Trump is ready to shell out $600 million of his own cash to become President.
The billionaire business magnate and "Apprentice" star told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Thursday that his name recognition would probably save him "hundreds of millions of dollars" compared with other candidates.
When asked if he had $600 million to spare, Trump said: "Much more than that. That's one of the nice things. I mean, part of the beauty of me is that I'm very rich. So if I need $600 million, I could put up $600 million myself. That's a huge advantage."
It's a huge disadvantage. Putting up all the money yourself means that you don't listen to anyone, and that's fatal for a political candidate. | The 64-year-old, who held the interview aboard his private jet, said he'd announce his decision by June.
Trump's net worth is $2.7 billion, making him the 137th richest person in the U.S., according to Forbes magazine.
