Donald Trump for President Thread

[Harryflashman]

Did the same in the last debate too. He cites "online" polls which are about as scientific as my cat's weather predictions..

Talking about John Oliver and Trump treating lying like breathing have you seen the Oliver video about Trump and his fictitious publicist John miller ? It's bad enough he pretends to be his own publicist over the phone and talks about madonna wanting to date him/Trump ,he then apparently admits it before years later during a run for president denies it was him .

It's beyond parody but genuinely frightening given we're talking about the Presidency.

That's a billionaire pretending to be his own publicist on the phone whilst bigging himself up, something he later admits to claiming it's a joke before years later denying it even sounds like him whilst he's running for president and people think he's appropriate for office .

I mean I could list a lot of things he's done but the sheer ridiculousness of it just seems to sum him up .

Like everything with Trump, I start off laughing at how stupid he is and then I remember how many people actually think he's a serious candidate. It's scary.

100%. And it would be funny if it wasn't running for president.

Interesting read re lack of collective action in stopping Trump during the primary process. Short version: Republican politicians / leaders were scared of their own voters.

They should be terrified of their voters; in a country that is awash with guns they have ruined many lives, wrecked the life chances of many more, and have actually - in one of the richest, most free countries on the planet - reduced their voters life expectancy.

i reckon the next secret recording will be trump using racist language...

@TheFinnFan - what do you see in Trump (from wherever you may be observing) that makes it look like he's the best choice between the two?

1)not part of the political elite or establisment
2)not a criminal

Yep, his campaign is featuring a lot of "just themes/language you hear in rap or hip-hop music" excuses over the past couple of days that could well be to lay the groundwork.

And if you believe that Trump regularly listens to that type of music I have a bridge to sell you...

1) a non-establishment billionaire ? Whose dad was worth $300m

2) the array of allegations against Trump is pretty lengthy including , I think , two settled claims alleging rape one of whom was his wife. Some pretty serious allegations over the mishandling of cash by the Trump foundation . I mean there are a lot more as well.
