    That last statement of yours sounds very agreeable. Religion gone wrong is probably more dangerous than anything else.

    Religion, racism, and facism are all dangerous in the wrong hands. I actually think Trump is far more dangerous then some people believe, reminds me of charismatic dictators of the past. He may really test the US political system and it's checks and balances.

    Of course he is. Only the totally dumb believe this man. How many times have our parents, mentors and the wise advised us to judge the tree by its fruit. Trump treated everyone around him like shit. Not only that but he has always proven one of the worst business partners, he underpaid, he stepped away from contract obligations, he defaulted multiple times on projects. If anyone is unable to compromise and is mentally unstable as well as uncontrolled when in rage then it is this very man.

    Even ignoring the xenophobia and sociopathic tendencies, you'd think Americans would look at his business record. Surely a country still suffering the hangover of the subprime crisis would note that Trump himself got ahead exactly how the heads of the corrupt big US banks got the financial system in trouble. Over leverage, passing on the risks to others, bailing out when it doesn't work out, lining their own pockets at every step, and no ethical compass to do the right thing. Just because corporate law allows you to do something doesn't make it right.

    I didn't really follow his career much until recently. Trump Tower in Toronto was a disaster. He had another project in Florida where he partnered up with a convicted felon and the investors got absolutely screwed. At the very least, these projects showed that Trump can have bad judgement picking business partners and has no empathy for others if he gets his fees. Yet this is the guy so many Americans want to entrust their leadership to when the US has incurred a very high debt load that must be managed carefully.

    Many posters on here seem to be dreaming about simple solutions to complex problems and Trump provides the unrealistic themes they buy into. For example, somehow high tariffs and renegotiated trade deals are easy and great with no downside. Build a wall lol etc etc.

    There is very little of what you write that I agree with.... however I can agree with the gist of what you summarized above.

    The real problem in the current U.S. presidential election IMO is that we have two very poor selections as leading party candidates.

    How can you possibly agree with very little of what he wrote? Almost everything in his post are facts. You can't disagree with facts you can only deny facts. But even that does not make the facts any less factual.

  8. Where do you get that? When people around him are actually allowed to speak for themselves they have good things to say about Donald Trump

    Really? The many wholesale suppliers and contractors all have good things to say about him? The ones that are not bullied and are not afraid to speak up went on tape to share how Trump reneged on contracts, bullied them, kept suppliers unpaid for MONTHS,....a simple google search surfaces all those
