    If you could adequately defend his policies I'd take what you say seriously but you're just whining about political opposition.

    Its his plans for the country that people hate almost as much as they hate him.

    His plan is to make his country great again. What is there to hate about that ?

    You do have to laugh at nobodies accusing a guy worth billions as a 'business failure'. It is laughable, he is such a failure :rolleyes:

    I think everyone will try to fail in life like Donald Trump, you might end up being President or leader of your own country one day. Fail away.
    He inherited billions and has been bankrupt more times than anyone else in history. It's not exactly a stretch to call him a business failure.

    Billary knows all about that.

    I see Tweedledee and Tweedledum are in full swing in here. Like I said, no different to the 10 year old prank calling the same pizza place/chipper/etc over and over until they just stop responding.

    Oh my god, you two.

    The Democratic party is full of rapists and paedos? That's fascinating, why don't you tell us more about how someone called "Billary" (can you not spell Clinton's name? It's easy enough.) rapes babies on TV. It's amazing that the news hasn't picked up on this story, please do post your link to how you found out about this story of the year.

    Of course it is stupid to call him a failure. He is super rich and now the next President of the US. Bankruptcy is not always a bad thing either, many times it is sensible.

    The problem is we don't know how "actually" rich he is. He "claims" that he is worth many billions but we are still waiting for his actual tax returns.....

    The reason he claims he is a super billionaire is that he values the Trump "brand" at many millions of dollars. Now if you take off this virtual brand value the actual real value of his assets is a lot lot less than he claims, nobody knows? It's all pat of the illusion the show.

    The lads in Fortune magazine who do the rich list every year say that Trump is the ONLY billionaire that will actually spend a couple of days with them arguing and trying to convince them that the TRUMP brand is worth billions.

    Trump doesn't actually own all these hotels (you do know this!) it's just his name over the door these developers pay him just to use his name. The reason why! It's because that no bank in America will loan him money he has shafted them all over the years with his bankruptcies' it's only deutche bank and the arabs and Russians will loan him money now (and I think deutche bank are fighting with now even)

    He is a genius showman, hustler, frauster and self promoter....... Captain of industry, financial genius and property titian...ahhhh..... NO

    So it turns out Trump's lying Tweets about Boeing yesterday dropped the company's share price $1.2bn. How many manufacturing jobs is that going to lose in their facility at small town, blue collar Everett, WA? It's populations is 103,000 and Boeing employee 30,000 there.

    Can people seriously not look into things instead of believing complete crap the MSM pull? 170m for air force one, what a deal.

    http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/trump-threatens-cancel-air-force-one-order-boeing-stock-slips-n692511

    "Trump spokesman Jason Miller did not answer directly how Trump knew the price of the new Air Force One, but according to the latest figures, Trump is likely correct about the eventual $4 billion price tag, which would be paid out over the next decade or more. Research and development is already at $2.7 billion for the first two years, a number that is already budgeted and approved, and the Government Accountability Office warned last year that the cost would be approximately $3.2 billion. By the time the aircraft is delivered, the total cost will likely be over $4 billion, because the government still has to buy the two aircraft once they are built."

    Congratulations on him winning Time person of the year, I hope it doesn't offend the buttercups too hard.

    Trump's banker and paid political and strategy consultant Putin was Person of the year in 2007. Angela Merkel won in 2014

    Lots of interesting names on that list. GW Bush. Bill Clinton. Obama. Hitler. Wallis Simpson. Stalin.

    Federal Judge ends Michigan recount, because the Green Party had no business asking for one in the first place.

    Hopefully Jill Stein will be made pay huge costs. She's a loser and a time waster, as well as being Hillary's stooge.

    I forget who said it but you could probably ask Trump for $5k dollars right now and he wouldn't have it to give. His worth is based on his real estate portfolio but he's also heavily in debt at the same time. The most likely reason he didn't release his full tax returns is because he's broke.

    The dollar is not king in the US. Credit is. In fact some places won't even accept cash any more.

    I know you idolize him but you sound just like him. Maybe it's time to take a step back?

    Trump just made ben Carson the secretary of housing and urban development.

    Carson is the guy who thinks the pyramids were actually grain silos.

    No doubt he'll have some "interesting" ideas about urban development.

    Carson also believes that poverty is a choice and less than a month ago said he'd be useless working in the bureaucracy of a cabinet position.

    It's strange that he was claiming to 'drain the swamp', but seems to have backfilled it with 'toxic sludge'!

    Well at least the lawyers did well out of those donations....wonder what she will do with the balance ?

    3.5 million dollars filing fees + lawyer fees in Wisconsin and Trump has gained more votes.....

    I'd love to see the conversation ebbs think's s/he's having.



    On the topic of toxic swamps, both figurative and literal, Scott Pruitt has been appointed head of the EPA. Puritt is the Oklahoma AG and is currently in a legal battle with, drumroll please, the EPA.

    The new Head of the EPA considers climate change to be as yet unproven. Open those coal mines!

    Just came here to post about that:

    https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/806578113085841408?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

    So we now have a climate change denier in charge of an agency he's already at war with.

    I honestly cannot get my head around the posters here who are still cheering for Trump; do they not live on this planet, do they not have families?

    If the US goes ahead with dismantling the various plans to undo the damage already done to the environment and to rollback on moving to cleaner energy then we're ALL in deep deep trouble. I think people like ourselves who are already adults and in 1st world countries will probably not see the worst of it, but our children and grandchildren will not be so lucky.

    You think the refugee crisis caused by the wars in the Middle East is bad, wait until the sea levels rise and Bangladesh (pop 156.6 million, average height above sea level 33 feet) is half underwater, or parts of India and Pakistan (over 50 degrees celcius last May) become uninhabitable due to extreme heat:

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/secretary-of-state-candidate-rep-dana-rohrabacher-defends-russia-denounces-china-201557094.html
    In a contentious exchange with Yahoo News and Finance Anchor Bianna Golodryga, Rohrabacher compared Putin to former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. When Golodryga brought up Russia’s history of alleged human rights abuses, he responded, “Oh, baloney — where do you come from?” Golodryga said she immigrated to the United States from the former Soviet republic of Moldova as a political refugee.

    “Then the audience knows you’re biased,” Rohrabacher retorted.

    Wow.

    Wow.

    Makes sense given that he's one of the frontrunners to be Trumps Secretary of state, and as we all know (as does Rohrabacher himself, going by the above) Trump exists inside Putins pocket/wallet.
