The Official Politics Thread - Trump, Brexit & the World!

[stickyvicky]

I have seen him say a lot of stupid things, he's not really a politician, actually he's a terrible politician, lol... but he does have some good ideas? Maybe he would be less corrupt and do what is better for the country rather than giving in to special interest groups?

They said his speech he just did, he totally winged it, didn't use his prepared speech at all... lol...
The first time a presidential announcement ever included the word "crap"!

I would love to hear what his stand is on GMO's and CAFO's.... we are basically killing/poisoning the American population with our food intake, our meat and poultry filled is with chemicals, hormones, and antibiotics, and our vegetables genetically modified with roundup in every cell of what we eat. Everyone dying of cancer and new illnesses and new cancers being discovered the more we "fuck" with our food. All the practices we employ here in the USA are illegal in every country in Europe, and in 68 countries around the world, yet they allow it here, just so Monsanto and other big Agribusinesses can get bigger and richer. Someone in government needs to look at this and do a cleanout.

Sorry rambling... The media says he's a clown. What do you guys think?

I wonder how he feels about porn? We know he likes his blondes with big boobs!

Sorry cant help with this, as I look with interest from far away. However I do think Donald should stay with Miss Universe.

Personally, politically, I like a lot of things he says. But race-wise? He knows he doesn't stand a chance. So I'm not sure if he's just trying to get some ideas out there or what.

A few fast food places seem to be trying to clean up their act, but what you are talking about goes way deeper than that. And you're right in all you say, Vicky. Over here, rules are made by the politicians who are lobbied by the agri corporations. So the politicians really know nothing about it. My opinion is that they really are voting for who contributes the most to their pocketbooks.

Rokkerr said it's just a publicity stunt by Trump. He does have a huge ego, but he is so right about the 2.8 billion dollar car factories that were supposed to be built in FL and Tennessee that are instead being built in Mexico. Imagine the jobs and offshoots and spending that would have triggered.

Either he's trying to be the next Ross Perot, or this is simply a scam to keep him in the spotlight.

He's not beating Jeb! or Scott "The Next Ronald Reagan" Walker for the GOP nomination; so will he carry this over to an independent campaign?

Anyways, funny how he gets all the pub, but a legit indy candidate like Bernie Sanders gets the silent treatment. Just sayin'.

As if his own support for outsourcing jobs out of this country for union bashing and cheap labor isn't contributing? Even his clothing line was produced in China, in spite of his China bashing.

I think he's looking for some sort of publicity. I find it comical at least!

[Maggie Green]

Hahaha!

[sugerdaddy]

This ass hole should stick to to his Trump Tower and stay there till he rots. Just my Aussie opinion.

[DrNick2014]

Wealthy Prick trying to get more face time for himself.

[WalterB]

Yep, he himself has stated it's not a serious run. Mostly him just blasting his opinion.

[Sparkle]

Listen to Rokkerr, he has it right.

[TheShaft]

Fiscally, I like his ideas. But he won't have the support he needs. Yes he has an ego and it could be a publicity stunt but I'd vote for him over those trainwrecks Clinton and Sanders.

Exactly hyprocrisy at is finest. I usually keep out of political discussions but just have to say any Republican or Democrat for that matter would be better than this guy.


LOL and then there's this http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/d ... ors-803161

[eddiemac2k14]

How can I put my thoughts on Trump running? Hmmmm...

Gun to my head, if the choices were vote for him or die, I say pull the trigger.

[stickyvicky]

Not really sure what the point of this was?

[bridgitrowan]

Trump no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[roland]

Trump leads in almost every poll I've seen. So as of right now, he has the votes. After saying he'd run independent if he didn't win the Republican primary and other stunts like that. Republicans have sort of turned their back on him. Fox news and right wing media seem to be slamming Trump harder than Hillary at this point lol. There is no politician I really want to vote for though :(

[CGYMike]

We are voting in a Federal election in Canada in a couple of weeks, and have our own set of clowns to deal with in this country.

Good luck figuring out your next election...its gunna be interesting :)

Running for president? That's OK. Just as long as he doesn't get elected president. The Democrats could use a landslide about now.
