Trump doesn't have a feasible economic budget. He is a snake oil salesman taking his favourite 'the uneducated' with him with die-hard Republicans reluctantly trailing. He is woefully unprepared to govern a country and with his thin skin and revengeful temper entirely unsuitable to be Commander in Chief.

Toss a coin, they are both as bad as one another.
A friend sent me a little cartoon he had seen in the US.
Picture a photograph of Bill Clinton with the Hil (rictus grin on her face as usual) sitting in what appears to be a Whitehouse lounge and Hil is saying “it will be great to have a woman in the Whitehouse” to which Bill replies (with wistful smile on his face) “been there, done that!”.
Seen Monica,s new head, she is MUCH more attractive than the Hil (and younger)!
I trust that whoever the American people vote for,

but who is the right one,
time will answer that question, and that time will last abt 4 years I presume,
that, will be down to the American people.
Trump has had a shocking couple of weeks. May he continue to alienate the Republicans.

Aug 11th, 2016 - 04:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0The US is at a point where we need an exceptional president. But Trump is not that. And neither is Clinton.
An interesting critique of Trump's FP detractors. Again Trump is not the answer: http://www.salon.com/2016/08/10/about-those-experts-take-a-close-look-at-the-foreign-policy-insiders-denouncing-trump/
@7 I don't click links.

He made another idiotic statement yesterday. One would think he doesn't want to be President. He saw campaigning as good advertising for his brand and now it has gone too far.
Trump will end up a richer billionaire in 2'017! Being a president is a secondary issue!
