People were given 4 choices in the exit poll for 'most important issue facing the country'. Foreign policy, Immigration, Economy and Terrorism. Immigration was the least important issue to people across the 50 states of those 4 options. It's all there if you're arsed to look it up.

Lib Dem = Good, Republican = Bad. I'm glad the American public could see past that.

Often found it odd that this wasn't blown up with everything else, given how badly they wanted him to fail. Mabye they're saving it in case he won. Waiting over a decade to release "locker room talk" as undeniably rude and offensive as it was, was a definitely desperate move, indicative of the times, indicative of future moves...

Pardon me for not falling over myself to believe much of this just yet. Several times I've seen a poster make an accusation, only for a different poster to point out that all is not as it seems. Along with the pages and pages of videos and the dissection of them, in which nobody seems to see the same thing or agree on what they see. The comment discussed by Niamh Horan is the only one that anyone I've spoken to can cling to when everything else falls away, and on that I agree with Niamh.

He has not demonstrated a stable personality, nor did I ever find him able to articulate his agenda in any significant depth. Of course he's not the only president to have these failings, other presidents and world leaders have had them also. But I still can't get past the basic lack of coherence. I'm wishing America the best of luck, and I hope beyond hope that his presidency will allay my concerns.

I had a few discussions about it, thought about it.And I just cannot get past the fact that a deeply unstable, egotistical individual, with no respect for women and a gnat-sized attention span won the election. This election was not about politics, it became a popularity contest. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Renegade Mechanic wrote: » I think they might. His opinions on women were never important to me - he'll have too much opposition to do anything with them, so they're safe. Neither are the worries of gay or trans people - nobody in Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Algeria, Brunei, Kuwait or other countries are worried about which bog they're allowed to piss into. All these countries have donated millions to the Clinton Foundation, which gladly took it. But all they care about are themselves right at home, I honestly don't rate "nasty words" on the same level as state sanctioned execution. That might make me sound insensitive, but seeing the rest of the world for what it is, puts things into perspective. People have it far, far worse in other countries, and those countries want Hillary.

Trump: 'I've known Jeff for fifteen years, terrific guy, he likes beautiful women as much as i do, and a lot of them are on the younger side.'. Jeffrey Epstein ran a sex ring where he trafficed underage girls to his friends.
