THE DOCUMENTARY THEY TRIED TO CENSOR: Trump — What’s the Deal?
By Doug Ross. A commenter alerted me to a documentary on Donald Trump — recently uploaded to YouTube — that appears to have been produced in the late 1980s. Rumor has it that one of Mr. Trump’s legendary lawsuits suppressed its distribution.
It’s very — very — interesting.
The vid features NYC icons Jimmy Breslin and Ed Koch as well as some New York Times punks, along with a range of typical, workaday jamokes like you and me.
It seems to get to the heart of who Donald Trump really is.
There’s stuff to admire — and condemn.
Watch it here:

Donald Trump Is a Bigger Frontrunner to Be the Republican Nominee Than You Think
By Chris Cillizza. Barring some sort of cataclysm, Donald Trump is going to easily win Saturday’s Republican presidential primary in South Carolina. It would be his second straight large victory out of three contests so far in the presidential contest. In the other — the Iowa caucuses — Trump got the second most votes of any Republican candidate ever, but he finished second behind the guy who got the most votes in the history of the caucuses: Ted Cruz. Three days after the South Carolina vote, the race will move to Nevada where a poll released on Wednesday showed Trump ahead by almost 30 points. Then comes the March 1 “SEC” primary, when voters in 13 states across the country — including six Southern states — vote. Polling puts Trump first in most, if not all, of those states.
All of which raises a simple but profound question: Why isn’t Trump being covered as the overwhelming favorite to be the Republican nominee?
Substitute any other Republican in the race into Trump’s current position. There is a 100 percent chance that that person would be touted as the prohibitive favorite or the odds-on nominee. Imagine Marco Rubio — he of the third-place finish in Iowa and fifth-place finish in New Hampshire — with the same poll numbers as Trump in South Carolina, Nevada and beyond. The coronation would be on. Hell, Rubio is now seen as a likely third-place finisher in South Carolina — behind Trump and Cruz — and laurels are virtually being thrown at his feet.
