President Trump? The Donald To Make 2016 Decision Over ‘Next Three Months’ [VIDEO]

In a Monday morning interview with the “Morning Joe” crew, Donald Trump said that he plans to make a decision on running for president over the next three months and that he has no road blocks preventing a run unlike four years ago.

“I think I could do well. I think if I got it, I would do a lot of things differently, but I think the people that are running, and many have come to my office,” Trump said. “It would be an interesting field, that’s for sure, but we’ll see what happens, and I’ll be making a decision fairly quickly.”

“What’s the difference between this time and the other times that you’ve said you might run?” asked host Joe Scarborough.

“Well, not all the other times. I looked at it really only seriously last time. I was in a contractual situation with ‘The Apprentice.’ ‘The Apprentice’ is a big show, two hours every night. You know, it’s a big thing and I have a contractual obligation. I was unable to break it, you can’t break a contractual obligation.”

“Can you break it this time?” asked an interjecting Scarborough.

“I don’t have it this time, because ‘The Apprentice’ will be long gone…it would be over in about five weeks. After that, the timing is good. Last time it went right before. Not only ‘The Apprentice’, but I was building all over the world.”

“When will he know whether you’re going to run for president or not?” Scarborough asked.

“I would say over the next three months,” Trump said. “I’m going to make a serious decision. Look, I deal with politicians–all my life I’ve been dealing with politicians, whether it’s zoning, or environmental or other things. I would say over the next three months. I find they’re all talk, no action, nothing gets done. All talk, no action. The world is blowing up around us, nobody knows what to do.”

“There are problems that can be solved that these guys can’t solve,” Trump added.

Trump, who endorsed Mitt Romney during the GOP primaries in 2012, also reacted to last week’s news that Romney might take a third stab at the nomination. The businessman said that “you just can’t give him another chance,” pointing out that Romney got less votes than John McCain in 2008, adding that “he blew it.”

“He had a great chance of winning, and he blew it. He’s like a dealmaker that couldn’t close the deal. So you just can’t give him another chance. It didn’t work,” Trump said. “He got less votes than John McCain got years before. He was unable to close the deal that should have been easily closed.”

The television personality also added his two cents on the simmering feud between Romney and former governor Jeb Bush. Trump said recently that he is against having another Bush occupying the White House.

“I know for a fact they don’t like each other.” Trump said of the relationship between Romney and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. “I would say the last thing we need is another Bush.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
