    Nothing crazy about it. She was right. A Country with no borders is no longer a country: immigration MATTERS to a lot of Americans, and I think we shall see it matters a hell of a lot to many other peoples too.

    Obama will be gutted. Everything that he worked for the last 8 years is about to go up in smoke.

    I tell you one thing

    No people or civilization in the history of human race has ever done statics like the USA does.

    They have a stat for everything......

    Trump will be the next POTUS. The next question is just how far the Dow will fall.

    Wars in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia.
    The unaffordable care act as health insurance becomes more costly than a mortgage.
    Relations with Russia reset to cold war levels.

    Hopefully it all goes up in smoke, he was a failure, just a good talker.

    Anyone who thinks America has no borders has never looked into emigrating from a country.

    All those wars bar Syria came before him.

    Be a poor American and come back to me about health care you've no idea.

    He repaired decades old relations with Iran.

    The republican senate is the cause of America's ills

    He along with Hillary started the Liyban war by removing Gaddafi, as Gaddafi was right about terrorists in Benghazi.
    They absolutely destroyed that country.

    US laws were changed in the 50's to make it harder for europeans but easier for others to emigrate there, it's hard by design
    Hilary promised to bring in at least an additional 1 million muslim migrants if elected. Borders for some, not all. That's the issue, and the lack of transparency and accountability to taxpayers

    1928 was the last time a Republican president had 1928 was the last time a Republican president had Republican majorities in both houses.

    So if Trump overturns everything (ACA, Iran deal, climate change stuff, etc) it means Obama's 8 years in The White House was a complete waste of time.

    First BRexit, now Trump for POTUS.

    People want their countries back. People, states and countries should have the right to say who they do and don't want to allow into their country.

    it means more importantly that the economy - and the debt - are never turning around.

    In almost every single Rally since last June, "BUILD THE WALL" always got the most cheers.

    You get the unique experience of listening to his first speech, and in a few minutes, his victory speech. Believe me, immigration matters a lot, especially illegal immigration:

    Damn. Well, I was way off. I thought it'd be 4 years of Clinton plodding away and being criticised for everything she did ("Trump would have done it this way", etc). Now we'll see if a Trump administration can live up to its slogan. Who knows? I mean, nothing could surprise me at this point. If not, it'll be the biggest case of buyers regret in recent times.

    Anything on your privileged Irish view on health care? Have you even been to America? Do you know people who can't afford health care there? I do btw they have kids.

    What about Iran?

    Since you are choice choosing answers.

    So, as someone who was only picking up on The Donald's outrageous comments, rather than substantive policies, can someone give me a quick breakdown:
    1. Build the wall
    2. Prosecute Hillary
    3. ???
