TRUMP

And I thought we were in a mess

All I can say is OMG. I hope some semblance of sense prevails.

Not much of an alternative from where I am sitting TBH.

'Donald Trump's ghostwriter tells all' (Tony Schwartz quoted in The New Yorker):

“If Trump wins and gets the nuclear codes there is an excellent possibility it will lead to the end of civilization.”

I think that could trump all our messes, I-Spy!

It isn't looking good whichever way you look at it.. though I do think Trump is the most dangerous of the two..

He's a notreet and that's fer sure.

I can't understand why a country of over 300 million occupants can only find the people of the calibre of Clinton and Trump to stand for president. Surely there must be better people in the states ?

There are, but the people didn't vote for them...

Money talks

not voting for anyone just don;t believe a word either of them say. I am going to do what I believe and give up my right to vore

you must vote Erin. if only to keep Trump out.

press the damn button and to hell with trump and our guy who wants no nuclear weapons, and says we would be better off without the military?????shishhh, where the hell do theses rats crawl from?????press it now and hallelujah.....here we come.

YEAHHHHHH....KA-BOOMMM

What are we about? Trump, a repeat of Clinton is this all we have to lead the so-called free world ? SAD, we are in a serious state of decline . Not a leader in the west to inspire any confidence in the future

totally agree with your views oz.

I always thought years ago that Hilary Clinton would be the first woman President of the USA but after hearing her voice which sounds like a banshee, I don't know now but can you imagine Trump with his finger on the button.

Rather Hilary than Trump Marie.

where getting a little hot under the collar aren't we?.
when obhama arrived in the white house it was the best thing since sliced bread,simply not so.
my prediction, its Clinton, she will be no better or worse than any president in the last fifty years.
mr trump is just telling white America what they want to hear,certainly does not mean he will keep his promises.
lots of republican folks in the upper and lower houses do not take kindly to trump.ask obhama what chance of passing anything without their assistance.

I live in the USA, I have to live under whoever gets in...as I said earlier I don't think either of them are any good,or like either of them. But if we have to choose one, I would choose Hillary.. I think she is the least dangerous of the two.. I wish though, we had someone else to choose from...

I was hoping Bernie Sanders had got the numbers, but I think the US media would have crucified him. He would be too far to the left for the media moguls.

I liked Bernie, but as you say, he is way too far left, especially for this country, I also liked John Kasich, he made a lot of sense with his speeches.
But The Donald is blowing everyone away here. I know a lot of deeply Christian Conservatives are all but worshiping him and that blows my mind..
So we have another three months of listening to all the nastiness,from both sides, then come November it all will be over.....Two years of listening to all this yackity yack and most people are just glad it's all over, no matter who wins or loses.

cant stand hillary either

There was a joke awhile ago. Hillary used to go out with a petrol pump attendant before Bill and Bill said to her just imagine Hillary you could have been married to a petrol pump attendant instead of the President of the United States. She said No Bill, I would have still been married to the President of the USA.

press it nowwwwwwww

An old friend of mine said vote for the person who can do you the least harm, I think that's all the USA can hope for

I don't envy them. Mrs Clinton definitely had a crazed power mad look in her eyes after accepting the party's nomination.
Trump just looks mad all the time.

Trump has twice gone bankrupt. Each time, he protected his own wealth, but wiped out the wealth of those who were associated with him.

I wish someone could explain to me why so many Septics think that it is a good and desirable thing that he might do the same thing to the US.

Don't like either of them, but I think Trump is the most dangerous of the two.. The thoughts of him in the Oval Office and THAT button there under his itchy finger and his ' fly off the handle'attitude, is downright scary...

jouell , you have my support , I admired the foundations on which the USA was born , The current crop of so-called leaders must have the founding fathers squirming

aussie94, I don't think anymore there is the " We the People For the People'.. It's more like We the People for Ourselves' and not just this Country either.. More and more get into politics to line their own pockets and nothing to do with helping the People or the Country..

I know I am getting old, but more and more I don't trust any of them...

Jouell I could not agree with you more Politics today is about me me me . Not what I can do for the Country

press it nowwwww

he got himself in a pickle when he disgaced an american solider deaths just because he was muslim.

Sure did , but he seems to be popular with a large section of the population. Interesting to see how many voters he gets.

He called the Soldier a Hero, he said the Mother wasn't allowed to speak. Truth is, she may not have been allowed to speak. Harám.

Bugger all to do with Haram or Islam, she was a grieving Mother stood by her husband. I have see many Mothers lost for words at the loss of her child. Trump needs removing from this world, by any means available.

In a different speech she did speak.. As you say Joseph it had nothing to do with whatever religion. in the speech when her husband was speaking, she was there in support.. Just like Melania or whatever her name is, has stood next to her husband in support, when he was speaking..

The closer we get to Nov, the more scared I am, he is a very dangerous man..

Trump is a nutter.

Bakerboy says we are getting hot under the collar aren't we!
I think we are the same but on a very smaller scale, just take a look at how much money the rich and business people pour into the the tory war-chest every time there is an election! As for choice again we have not a lot to pick from it's either Lab or Tory im afraid there is nowt else.
The one thing that remains constant is this ,they only recognise that your alive is when it's election time once they get that golden x of you, They don't give a TOSS about you!

Hillary Clinton said that Trump can't be trusted with nuclear weapons.

I wouldn't even trust him with a sharp knife.

SHE NEEDS TO CURB HER TONGUE ON FACEBOOK, AND STOP GIVING CLASSIFIED INFO AWAY.APART FROM THAT, HER BEFORE HIM,

Trump is his own worst enemy. If he would learn to keep his mouth shut and be a bit more diplomatic, he could have won the race easily.

Let's face it, power crazy Clinton isn't the brightest lamp in the street.

Megalomaniac Clinton will cause a war with Russia.
I think Trump is doing and saying all this because it's a ply to get the woman in power. He can't be saying all this and be seriously expecting to get in the White house.

Well he is Seriously in the running, only him and one other.... Maybe when he started it wasn't meant to, or maybe he didn't think he would get this far.. but he has and now we are all in a very dangerous situation..

jouell,
I understand what you say about Trump but Clinton isn't a great alternative. She has a fairly chequered history and isn't exactly a kindly home loving Mother. I'm sure there are plenty of skeletons in her cupboard.

Broady I know that, I said in one of my previous posts that I didn't like either of them.. I liked Kasich, I was hoping he could have got through, but he didn't..
So with only Trump and Clinton to choose from, I think Trump is the most dangerous.. Either way, I am still a British Citizen, so cannot vote for or against either of them...

You could always have this poser that we have north of you. Now he is a waste of time.

Wikileaks has much ineresting inf on Clinton.Strangely, mainstream media has reported none of it.

Hiliary Clinton decided to send Donald Trump a letter to let him know

PAST "SEERS"HAVE PREDICTED THEISLAMIC HORDS FLOODING THE WESTERN WORLD????

Trump v Clinton TV debate at 2am. Anybody staying up.

Heard an interesting piece on late night TV, recently.

Apparently, Trump supporters know he is untruthful, but believe 50% of what he says is the truth.

According to 'Politifacts', less than 15% of what he says is the truth!

(Don't attack me: their figures not mine!)

Staying up till 2am?? No thanks.
I'll record it, watch it tomorrow.

What channel?

BBC news channel ,YouTube and Twitter

Thanks i-spy.

Will be up, so may have a toot.

Some years, has said to have been the decider, hasn't it. (Kennedy vs Nixon)

Both liars, both puppets, Won't be watching.

If lying gets people to vote for them, and it obviously does, then they are going to lie aren't they.

Just the same as here.

In such an adversarial situation, people want to see those to whom they are ideologically opposed damned. Truth, as Clausewitz said, the first casualty of any conflict.

They're forecasting that 100 million will be watching

Only watched a little of it. I was tired, and found it boring, and went to bed before it concluded.

If the others are going to be similar, I will give them a miss.

1-0 to Hilary methinks. But I didn't see it all either.

The bit that I did see: Trump's attitude to his use of US bankruptcy laws to fleece others that were associated with him, I find very distasteful.

Trump is a very rich man who is used to having his own way, and everything he wants. And the only thing he wants now is to be the most powerful man on earth. His, and our problem is, that his ego is much bigger than his brain!

There's egomaniacs everywhere Dave

Round 2 in the early hours.
Should be more fun that Round 1 after Mr T's views on women

I thought it was staged for Trump to pull out of the race to allow clinton to walk into the Presidency. I still think it.

The obscene remarks made about women by Trump were no more than "alpha male boasting",according to Nigel Farage.
That's ok then

I have been watching the Trump/Clinton debate, I was just convinced that I had wasted 1 1/2 hours of my life!
I turned off the debate before it had finished, Trump with a face like a wet week is no debater and Clinton is the 30 yr political veteran and it shows.
He talked about how many mistakes she made and she talked about future policy and took very little notice of his crap rhetoric.

Going off the two candidates, Hilary was definately winning the debate hands down and was not getting draw into Trumps character assassination attempts.

It would be a very scary world if Trump ever got anywere near the Oval Office.

Just my personal opinion

Are you eligible to vote?? If not your opinion means nothing. If you go in a club every weekend take out membership or shut the whatever up.

Isn't the world a scary place now with Syria being used as a battleground between Russia, China and the US?
Guess who helped orchestrate the conflict?

A clue

I'd choose Trump over Hilary. Hilary has been covering up her husband's rapes and affairs for decades.

Soooo...I respect your opinion, perhaps you can oblige me by doing the same. Go take a powder.

In the debate last night clinton says she would arm the kurds, turkey wont be pleased about that, also she wants a no fly zone, i cant see russia agreeing to that, if she gets elected it could lead to a major conflict.

What fun there'll be in the White House if he wins.
I should imagine the Miss Universe contest will be made welcome

They're saying it's still too close to call

At the end of it all I hope Hillary wins , purely out of self interest , the pundits predict a fall of at least 10% in the share markets should Trump win and that will do serious harm to pension funds and my future.
