In Donald Trump's quixotic bid to be President of the United States, The White House sez: There is zero chance Donald Trump would ever be hired by the American people.

During his “This Week” appearance Christiane Amanpour asked Plouffe about Donald Trump‘s chances at winning the White House.

“There is zero chance that Donald Trump would ever be hired by the American people to do this job,” says Plouffe. “I saw Donald Trump kind of rising in some polls and given his behavior and spectacle the last couple of weeks, I hope he keeps on rising.”

Spencerblog's father, who was the editor of the New York Daily News back in the 1980s recalls a phone call from Mr. Trump asking his advice about a possible run to be mayor of the Big Apple.

Spencer Sr. recalls telling The Donald, "That's the dumbest f---ing thing I've ever heard. They will eat you alive."

The advice still holds.

UPDATE: Here's a differing opinion from the Washington Times.
