Donald Trump told “Fox & Friends” he’ll run for president against Obama in 2012 as a Republican.  He already has a campaign motto he claims was inspired by Teddy Roosevelt:  “Walk Softy and Carry a Big Comb.”

A federal court ruled that a woman can sue Disney’s Epcot Center for being groped by an employee dressed as Donald Duck.  April Magolon, 27, alleges that the attack left her with nightmares, digestive problems and an uncontrollable desire to fly south for the winter.
