This dreadful man gets more awful by the day !

[Retrochic]

He reminds me of Ronald Reagan . God help the West if Trump becomes President.

[trt]

I watched that yesterday and some of his other rallys, he is a nut-case and cant believe how many people turn up and applaud him.

[mikey4444]

trt.......in a country where millions think that the Grand Canyon is only 6000 years old, and seem to be content to let deaths of innocent people by guns soar each year, should we be at all surprised that a man like this is so popular ?

But we shouldn't get too worked up I suppose, as his chances of becoming President are so low.

[ummmm]

America isn't the only country where innocent people get killed by gun. Why are you so eager to condemn America but not other countries?

[Retrochic]

^^^ because this thread is about a USA presidential candidate, not about Gun Laws

[ummmm]

But Mikey always brings guns into it as he has in this thread.

[mikey4444]

Ummm..I was responding to trt.

Only in America could someone like Trump have got this far in a political contest. I am making the point that if people hold such daft idea about gun ownership and religion, then we shouldn't be at all surprised that they give support to this embarrassing and frankly risible contender for the White House.

Actually Trump is noting like Reagan: Reagan, whether you liked his politics or not, was a softly spoken, if conviction-based, politician. Trump comes across as an ignorant, loud-mouthed bigot.
A bit hard, I'd have thought, to talk about US politics and not mention gun laws.

[trt]

Didn't he say the other day that if the French had guns it wouldn't have happened in Paris, or something like that.

[ichkeria]

"nothing like ..." of course

[mikey4444]

trt...it sounds like the kind of thing this twit would say !

Completely bonkers ichkeria !

[Khandro]

He may have a point; imagine if an armed plain-clothes cop had been dining in that Paris restaurant (a sort of French 'Dirty Harry') don't you think a lot of lives might have been saved?
And mikey, homicide by guns isn't 'soaring' in the US, in fact it has been declining since 2006.

The telegraph has an amusing article on it with a photograph of Donald in mid-Richard III pose

Sorry the telegr has a well written article reproving Donald Duch for such misplaced actions and how shocking it all is

There is an inset photie of Kolocova or whomever who is permanently set in a Ricahrd III pose

They also have a verbatim quote of DOnald T - which kinda reads like one of my posts on AB TBH - unless he had done the pose they probably wouldnt have worked out what he was saying

[DTCwordfan]

He's a crass boor and the sooner he is kicked out of the nomination, the better....really, the Republicans have better folk amongst their nominees than this 'vulture.'

[Peter Pedant]

Completely bonkers Ichkeria


could mean You are bonkers Ich
or
He is bonkers, Ich
or
have you meet Colonel Bonkers Ich, who wants to invade Syria .....?

A truly delphic post Mikey.....

[mikey4444]

PP...I am sure that Ichkeria got my drift, but just in case ....Trump is bonkers, Ichkeria.

I think the majority of us agree that Trump will not end up in the White House, but my point is this. After two consecutive defeats, I think its truly amazing that the Republican Party should be allowing Trump to continue, as he is doing their cause no good whatsoever. The Party need to get rid of the loony tag and they aren't going to do it by hanging on to this clown.

Even Sarah Palin had more credibility than Trump !

See trump, think loony.
See the Republican Party, think loony.

Have they learned nothing since 2008 and 2012 ?

[youngmafbog]

You just can't resist the name calling can you?

Whether you like it or not others have a different view to you, in fact many many have a different view to you. He clearly strikes a chord or he would not have so much support.

[ichkeria]

Khandro: imagine if a gunman struck in the US : he'd never get away with it, what with US gun laws.
Oh hang on ...
