Ron Paul claimed he didn't get the endorsement of Donald Trump because he was the only Republican presidential "candidate that didn't kiss his ring."

Paul hit at his GOP rivals for meeting with the billionaire real estate mogul in 2011, the State Column reports. Mitt Romney, who met with Trump in late September but denied media access to the encounter, received Trump's endorsement Feb. 2, just days ahead of the 2012 Nevada Caucuses.

In an interview with Fox 13 News, Paul downplayed the value of Trump's endorsement, saying he "can't imagine why anybody talks about him."

"I don't think he has that much credibility," Paul said. "I never went up to see him. I don't understand why people pay any attention to him."

This isn't the first time Paul has jabbed Trump. He released an earlier statement asking "why anyone would care" about Trump's endorsement of Romney.

Paul also refused to participate in a Trump-moderated debate in early December, calling it "wildly inappropriate." Trump's debate appearance was eventually canceled.

Trump caused confusion this week when reports initially surfaced that he would endorse Newt Gingrich in the Republican presidential race. Trump's eventual endorsement of Romney carried an element of surprise considering Trump's history of bashing Romney.

:applause: At the end of the day, Paul probably won't get the nod from the Republicans but at least he'll have some self-respect (minus the whole racist thing)

In real estate, Trump >

But politics, negative for the big dog

Trump isn't even that great of a businessman.

well for starters, its pretty easy to be a successful businessman when your dad is super rich can give you the money you need to start and already has connections. With that said, I'm pretty sure its been reported that if Trump just took his dad's money and put it in the bank and got the interest, he'd be richer than he is now. He's also had numerous businesses fail, a casino, a few hotels etc. The guy is a pompous prick with family money.

you do know that most successful business men don't get 100% returns on their investments, right?...every move isn't going to be the right one. simply maintaining wealth is a hard thing to do in America. if that's the reason he's a bad businessman, you have your idea of businessmen kind of jaded.

come on b

once youre wealthy, maintaining your wealth is actually really easy. Theres so many ways you can take your money and earn st@ble returns its ridiculous.

Like dude said, he could have taken his fathers money and bought T-bills and been better off than he is now.

Trumps business ability is wildly overrated. . .the only thing hes been good at over the years is shielding his[..]ets from creditors in bankruptcy

My view of businessmen isn't jaded, I have family in real estate, they also say trump isn't that great of a businessman. His dad gave him !!loads of money to start. And he pissed away a lot of it on failed businesses. Also, Most of the buildings with his name on it, he doesn't even own. The one thing he is good @ is the reality tv bull!!, other than that the guy is a bad businessman. I mean how does a Casino go out of business? The business model to a casino is rigged for you to win, how do you !! that up?

And maintaining wealth is not hard to do, the interest off that money alone would be enormous. Trump is nothing more than a reality tv star blow hard with family money.
