CNN and Fox News are reporting that Donald Trump will no longer run for the presidency in 2012.

The announcement doesn’t come as a shock to many after the whole birther controversy with President Obama left egg on the real estate mogul’s face.

In the last few weeks, Trump has seen the public warm to President Obama over the Osama killing, and the official birth certificate he released shutting down all claims he was not born in the U.S.

Despite dropping out, Trump claims that he knows he would win the Republican nomination and compete for the presidency if he decided to stay in.

He also pointed to the high poll numbers he’s said he’s received from the American people, though most polls show a lack of support for his presidential run.
