Hitler, Stalin and Mao were met to try and keep the peace. Trump is supposed to reflect our "Western" ideals but is more aligned to the aforementioned. Scares the **** out of me!

Given the feelings of the British public, it would be hypocritical for the British PM to even think of entertaining Trump. He is a loud mouthed ignoramous and any invitation to him to come to the UK would result in a massive public protest. There are parallels. Margaret Thatcher, whatever we thought of her, had her principles on not meeting certain people. And did Harold Wilson ever meet Lyndon Johnson after the UK refused to join the US in Vietnam?
Mike Ashley o n BBC Breakfast News. Whatever you may think of him, he is one fat ugly b******. Wonderful reply about paying his workers the minimum wage......."I don't set the minimum wage."
Margeret Thatcher's govt continued to talk to the IRA even after they tried to kill her.
If the yanks elect Trump - and I don't think they will - the rest of the world will continue to respect the office of President of the USA, if not the holder of it.
True, but she made sure she was very distant from being contaminated with direct contact. Let's hope you are right regarding the next President.
Must say I am looking forward to their debate on Monday ( if Hillary turns up and can stand for 90 minutes ) do not understand why people still call Trump a racist when no one can produce a single thing that he has said that is racist.
still nothing there for me, you can not help who endorses you (Hillary was backed by the KKK 2008) not renting to black couples- may have been horrible people, muslims are not a race, BLM are the most racist group in the US at the moment etc. Huffington is on the left side, you can watch info wars for the right side. if there was any real proof of him being racist it would have been thrown at him by now
Huffington Post is heavily left-leaning in their opinions, but also often in their biased presentation of the news. Which is unfortunate. Infowars is a bunch of whacky lies that don't even make any sense, told by and for crazy paranoids.
Equating the two is like equating Hillary Clinton with Donald Trump.
Which really kind of explains a lot.

you got to love it though, the younger generation are a scary breed with their safe spaces and their general lack of knowledge about the world- and thats the college students whose parents have to pay $100,000 a year for that education. I could not believe that I got 4-1 odds on trump winning,in a 2 horse race and one of the horses looks like it could drop dead any minute , it was when he was 11 points behind after that stupid spat with the parents of the muslim marine, Trump should be fitted with one of those electric dog collars and when he is about to go off on one one of his backstage dudes could give him a zap ( maybe one would help Hillary too)
How about calling every Mexican in America a rapist criminal drug dealer. The guy is dangerous because he'll say anything to get in power wether he believes it or not.
The man is an obvious racist, it isn't really up for debate. Is Fortune Magazine left leaning?

Jeremy Corbyn wins the Labour leadership election with 61.8% of the vote.
Tuttah, Owen Smith.
Tuttah, Owen Smith.
He said that illegals coming over are rapist and criminals, there is no way of checking those coming over, you kill someone in Mexico skip the border to USA wait for the heat to die down and go back if you want to or stay in USA selling drugs. 80% of illegal women coming into USA get raped en route. Pretty sure he believes everything he says, very few stats to say he is wrong. If 500 young men manage to get smuggled from France to England would you want them sent back as per agreement with France or is that being racist ?
Think that's the case either way. Out of touch with anyone who isn't in the membership, for the most part.
At least with Corbyn I get the feeling he believes what he says and argues and isn't just looking to advance his career.
I believe the thing with Trump that he is way smarter than the people he is running with, he started the campaign by saying some big things, ban Muslims, build the wall bring jobs back to USA etc. this gave him lots of unpaid for TV while his 16 opponents have to pay millions. These statements basically gave him 60%of the white vote but nothing from minority but thats fine plenty of time. He is now in the top 4 and now he starts to personally attack the other 3 calling them tiny, dis honest and the like and these insults stuck. So he wins the Republican vote as the other 3 are blown away.
Now its the turn for Hillary, catchy names like Crooked Clinton and starting the hearts and mind campaign for the black and Latino vote, what has a black president done for you ? there is no way that he will win the younger vote, but he may get the older black and Latino vote that see thousands of thier youth killing each other, with no education and no prospects, that could swing key areas, I would say that from now on he will concentrate on minority vote as the white vote is safe.
I would have said that Trump has no chance as Hillary is so strong in high point areas like New York and California. But with Hillarys poor health and recent scandals trump may well nick esp if Hillary has 1 more collapse.
i think that trump is all about the business and says things in the heat of the moment and is too proud to retract it later. the spat with the muslim parents of an American hero was just dumb but he was too proud to let it go which is a big flaw that he has. If you watch interviews of his from the last 40 years his views rarely change (apart from abortion, which is a landmine area anyway).
America is in the toilet and there are alot scared people, lots of different factions and for me Hillary offers no solutions. truely think that Trump would be the person that could change America, may not be a popular president, but people will look back and say he was what America needed

Given the qualities of these two Presidential candidates, the US would be better off getting Justin Gatlin to run and back him 100% because he probably knows more about politics that Trump and is probably a much more caring person than either Trump or Clinton.
