The EU debate - Part III

I agree. I reckon a lot of Americans had a lot of soul searching to go through before they cast their vote.

 

I don't buy it in this case. I think the American people had just had enough of The Clintons.[/QUOTE]

Whilst Trump is one of the wealthy elite, he fought a campaign on breaking that monopoly of power and wealth. He said something different, which voters wanted to hear.
You have to ask why people have had enough of the Clintons?

Perception, rightly or wrongly, that they are crooks. Plus people just get tired of the same old faces.

And anybody who believes what Trump promises should see a psychiatrist!

What possible interest would an out & out capitalist, like Trump, have in getting rid of wealthy elitism? Only if it was to grab more of it for himself!

Sorry but as distasteful as the likes of Trump, and for that matter, Farage are, they promised something different which the electorates of both the UK and the States want. Whether they deliver, time will tell.

 

Reports are saying white blue collar workers vote for him, they are pissed off with the left liberal morons , just the same here with Brexit.

 

I do wonder if Trump will ban Muslims from entering or will he back down, same with a wall across Mexico.

 

When were the left liberal morons last in power in the UK?!

How would he implement a ban on Muslims entering the US?

They don't have Muslim passports.

 

Clinton supporters are crying. Too many people don't seem to have any backbone nowadays.

 

British passport states your religion....maybe they all do?

 

Well it has definitely been an interesting year for politics there is no doubt.

Not keen on the idea of Trump at all.

 

Wonder if the UK is still "back of the queue" when it comes to trade deals with the USA ...

 

fixed.

 

You're almost right Kustard. Trump was swept to power by hordes of dribbling idiots, similar in many ways to the mugs who voted for Brexit.

The thick, angry people of the world have spoken. And they have said "**** off".

 

It will be interesting to see how much of trumps rhetoric actually becomes part of his policies.
NATO shake up,
Offshore call centres being relocated to US
Scrapping TPP and TTIP
Withdrawal from Paris accord on climate change.
Restricting imports generally.
Etc.

 

Mine doesn't (no mention of the word "Cthulhu" etc) .

 

Well he better walk the walk now, as I have just brought reams of shares in
USA bricks and mortar manufacturers in Texas.

 

Since when did Calculators need passports?

 

The Clintons IMHO are a low-grade Kennedy dynasty wannabee, and the
one thing it has seemed to me is that she oozed a sense of entitlement to be
president of the USA throughout.

As with the Leave result here, the USA politniks have the opportunity to do
a root and branch appraisal of the beliefs and perceptions of the electorate
(whatever they may be) .
