And news directors, political pundits and bloggers rejoice!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This should be fun. Popcorn, feet up, go!
I will add that in a recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 74% of Republicans said they could not see themselves voting for Donald Trump; that's more than any other candidate mentioned in the poll.
The Democratic National Committee released this brilliant bit of snark:
"Today, Donald Trump became the second major Republican candidate to announce for president in two days. He adds some much-need seriousness that has been previously lacking from the GOP field and we look forward to hearing more of his ideas for the nation."
Watch the Donald's announcement below.
