Trump as a president is a scary thought. The other candidates aren't much better.I was watching them speak and all they talk about is how they are ranking in the polls, with a final "I will make America great again".Bernie Sanders is the only one I heard talking about anything of substance and actually spoke what he thought on various issues. I doubt he will win though.

The more the Republicans keep yapping about how to make America great again the closer Hillary Clinton is getting to her other side of the White House bed...in fact she'll probably sleep in the middle with Bill on the sofa.....or a downtown motel...:icon_e_biggrin:

Who ever is going to be selected already knows they have been. Makes no difference who has already been selected. They will just serve as puppets for the puppet masters.

Bernie would be a nice change but like Jimmy Carter before him probably completely ineffective. The US gov is a lot more like the parliamentary system then they want us to believe - it takes a consensus to put through any changes, so the president is largely powerless and pointless. I'm waiting for a benevolent Artificial Intelligence (AI) to run the shop - screw people, they are all ****-ups.

I was with some gay friends in Seattle. I said now America has a black President and it's likely the next will be a woman...what will you guys do when it's your turn.."Redecorate the White House" was their response "We cannot stand those curtains!"I'd vote for that.

Now the Trump has trumped Fox News (the Republican's mouthpiece) by telling them he will not attend the next debate before the Iowa Primary vote.He says he is too far ahead in the polls to be bothered to debate with the other contenders....I only hope ALL Republicans appreciate this 'unhinged' guy might just get their vote in Iowa on 1st Feb.

It will become an interesting race if Michael Bloomberg runs as an Independant and the Republicans didn't vote for Trump and he chose to run as an Independant himself....this would create a unique American upheaval of their political system.

If that's all they can propose, that pretty sad...A run by Bloomberg or Trump as independents would guaranty an overwhelming Democrat victory by Hillary (if she's not indicted before the elections), but certainly by Bernie, who even if Trump remains the Republican candidate, as it stands now, would trounce him baddly.

Markit
Please people don't be as stupid as my countrymen are and believe for one minute that what the Donald says has anything at all to do with what he thinks or how he will act if he gets that job.The only thing scary about Donald T is that we actually have no clue what will happen - bad or good if he wins. I've got 20 kilos of popcorn, several cases of ice cold binny and I'm hoping for a decent internet connection to be able to sit back and watch (from a distance) what happens.Let the Games Begin!!!

America, the "Sodom" of the modern era! Putin must be rubbing his hands together that such a retard as Trump could be his new adversary in World Politics.:icon_e_surprised:

Would that many of us were as "retarded" as the Billionaire Trump, or?

I had promised myself that I would not waste my time and watch the Repuke debate last night. Well, I could not resist and I was not disappointed: buffoons all of them, calling each other names, lead by Trump-Mussolini. You can make it up.
