Trump Fakes 2016 Announcement to Stump for Golf Course, Celebrity Apprentice

Quadrennial presidential faker Donald Trump teased a possible announcement about his fictional 2016 run on Morning Joe Monday morning, in what was a thinly disguised commercial for his television show Celebrity Apprentice and his Florida golf course Trump National Doral.

Promising a “very serious decision” in the next three months, Trump claimed he was unable to run for president in 2012 due to a contractual obligation with Celebrity Apprentice (which airs on NBC, MSNBC’s parent company) — though that somehow didn’t stop him from teasing a run at the time. He then added that Trump National boasted 700 suites and five “massive” ballrooms.

For the uninitiated, Trump blows smoke about a presidential run every four years as an excuse for self-promotion.

Watch the clip below, for whatever reason you’d have for doing that, via MSNBC:
