    Yep because that does it, more than bombing them. ;)

    Trump has said nothing new mate, Muslims knew long before trump opened his gob, the FBI have forced thousnds to be spies on thier own people and set up all buit three "terror plots" and the three they did not, were foiled by citizens, and almost all of the people the FBI selected to be their "terrorist" were angy loner mentally lacking people.

    What Trump said adds nothing really except media hyperbole. Muslims are racial profile #1 in America and Europe, Australia too.

    Trump has to be done in, not that I like him, but he has so much money he cant be bought by lobbyists and that is why he will not do well, Bush was far worse than trump ffs <laugh> Bush a failed businessman ruining several companies and an alcoholic, Trump has made vast fortunes. Bush is a fool, literally and somehow made it, Obama too, that **** has no law degree, he's thicker than Bush

    Trump is just making things worse for Muslims in the US, given what I am posting below, that's <yikes>
    This guy, didn' even live in the US, goes to board a flight to the US, finds out in Turkey as he is boarding that the US put him on the secret no fly list, he ends up in custody for deportation, he's a US citizen but lives in Qatar. Family lives in the US.

    Then right wing media including fox make a completely fabricated story that he was an ISIS operative who got arrested in Turkey. The US said "ok we took you off the "list" and when he tried again to go in Qatar, he was prevented boarding. Eventually he flew to Mexico and got a bus to the US. FFS like, all because he was Muslim

    All because he tried to board his flight from Turkey to the US<doh> This just one of thousands of incidents like this, 6 year old Muslim on no fly lists in the US FFS<doh>

    I think I read somewhere that if Trump had invested the money he inherited from his rich father he would be doing worse than the actual rate of inflation in that time. So I think the fact that he has made 'vast fortunes' is more about his upbringing and his father's success rather than anything special he's done.

    To be fair to him he has out performed the markets marginally by running his own businesses rather than investing the money. If you take the lower figure for his inheritance he actually looks to have done quite well, if you take the higher figure then he has done fairly well. If you take into account his personal spending over the period of time then he definitely edges into having outperformed the markets.

    i don't know enough about him to comment on his real level of ability within business and understanding of the economy but I did look into his finances a while back and he deserves credit for maintaining and growing his fathers wealth.

    To be fair its a lot easier to make money when you inherit a large amount of $$$$ before you start. I do agree with you that he has done well to turn that money into billions but if you look at how much his fortune has grown over the last 30 years compared to other billionaires he's actually at the lower end of the scale (though still done well) which shows that he isn't as successful as he claims to be.

    Something else interesting I have found is supposedly he was a billionaire before he got his inheritance, his worth was estimated at 1.6 billion dollars in 1999 when he inherited his dad's money. He apparently got a loan of 200k and built it from there. The source of that however is quotes from his book, I haven't gone and fact checked that. If true it demonstrates him being very successful.

    Either way he's one of the most annoying people I've ever seen.

    True, its hard to verify either way because the only people who know are either Donald Trump or family/friends who are loyal to him.

    <laugh> The last bit is spot on, the guy is a dick. He's good at getting himself into the news though, he's like Katie Hopkins of the USA but on a bigger scale.

    The irony is this....
    for years Americans have been calling for a President who would not be beholden to his donors.
    Since time immemorial, US Presidents have always had to put first the interests of those who helped them get in to office, as a return on their investment.
    You think the NRA and oil companies donate all this money to US Senators and Presidential candidates out of the goodness of their hearts?
    No, they want to make sure that the new President looks out for their interests.
    Which is why, for example, no President has ever been able to introduce any sensible gun legislation in that country, because too many of the politicians are at least partially bank rolled by the NRA.

    Now, finally, a Presidential candidate comes along whose campaign is self funded, who won't be obligated to put first the needs of the 1% in favour of the working man.......and its Donald ****ing Trump....the most stupid, ignorant, bigoted and clueless billionaire in history.
    For him, having donors control his impulsiveness would actually be a good thing, ffs they would need someone to reel him in when he starts spouting mental **** on stage.
    Can you imagine him meeting with Putin or the Saudi leaders? Christ on a bike! It would be World War 3!

    A clear cut case of be careful what you wish for!

    None of the Republican candidates are suitable to the Presidency really, at least none of the front runners.
    I cannot believe I am typing this, but Jeb Bush would be better.
    Trump is a bigoted egomaniac who hasn't a clue
    Carson is a religious zealot, who would have his own religion dictate public policy.
    Ted Cruz is a slightly watered down version of Trump, but an absolute smug ****, beyond belief, and again, would possibly let his religious beliefs dictate public policy.
    Mike Huckabee and Chris Christie.......<doh> I think they supported Kim Davis........you cannot get more out of touch than that.

    Then the Democratic front runner and the probable next President, Hillary Clinton......she is a crook, plain and simple. I won't elaborate further than that. If you are into US politics you probably know what I mean, if you aint, then look it up. The woman is suspect with a capital sus.

    The clear, sane, choice for President is Bernie Sanders.

    I think putin and trump would understand each other quite well and would promptly lead the world to a Utopian society of hookers and casinos as they in partnership decide to rule the planet as oligarchs.

    I think the chinese would not like him too much though...


    Mrs clinton is a complate crook yes but we can all understand a greedy individual no? not a hateful bone in her weakling body is there? she also perosnally killed osama bin ladin as well so USA USA USA should vote her in for like pulling the tirrger yeah?

    Bernie saunders is a crank though.. i think him and corbin would bring the western world to slavery and ruin within 2 years if they were both in.

    haha, Nah Sanders is no where near as left wing as Corbyn mate.
    I don't think Corbyn would be a great idea either, but Sanders is no where near as bad, his policies actually make sense.
    In the UK, Sanders would be considers Centre left (ala Tony Blair).
    In America he is considered extreme left, like Corbyn is here.
    In America Corbyn would be off the scale and would probably be laughed off as insane, which is ironic considering the GOP front runner is Donald Trump.

    Another thing people don't get is the difference in political alignments between the UK and the US.

    For example, in the UK, Hillary Clinton would almost certainly be considered right wing, she would fit in nicely with Cameron and Osbourne's current Tory government.
    The Extreme right in America make our extreme right look like Mahatma Ghandi.
    Most of the far right politicians in the US would not last 5 minutes in British politics, same with our far left, it wouldn't last 5 minutes in America.

    This is the reason Bush and Blair got on so well, because they are very central examples of their parties, Bush being centre right, Blair being centre left. Could you imagine how Corbyn and Trump would get on as the British Prime Minister and US President respectively? <laugh>

    no american could ever be but he's as far left as any american can be without being locked up and further left than al save the planet gore.

    I agree centre left would be a fair call relative to the uk.
