Donald Trump: I'd like to punch protester in the face!

[KingstonSeagull]

I thought it was an Aussie tree hugger ?

Yeah he went to Eton though.... Champagne Socialist...

I find it worrying how many people seem to support him because they see him as a beacon of straight talking honesty, giving it how it is, despite most of the things he says appearing to be at slightly insane.

Almost like it's style over substance, which is hard to believe in a nation where a few debates (and the resulting soundbites) seem to be key to deciding who would be able to govern sensibly.

Edit; For clarification, I've no idea if you support/like Trump and I'm not suggesting that you do. Just realised it might read that way.

"Slightly insane" - are you mad!?

He may be a failed business man, say silly things but he has probably provided jobs for thousands of people over the years.

 

[KingstonSeagull]

Failed business man? The man is worth 4billion dollars....

It's easy to be worth $4Bn when you inherit $8Bn

I'd still make that deal...

Anyway Trump may talk the talk but it was Big JP who walked the walk......

I hope not, merely suggesting that Trump might have a bit of the crazies going on.

 

[Triggaaar]

He's comedy gold. He will never be President

It's still frighting that he's getting so much support. I feel for Americans. what has happened to them?

They call him a failed business man in respect if he had invested his money he would be worth the same.

US politics seems to be mostly 'sound bites'. He has the sound bites the morons want to hear.
Its a big country. They will have more morons than most

 

[Bwian]

So what’s to stop him becoming president and Boris becoming prime minister ?

The Americans are stupid enough to vote him in. Brits are dumb enough to make Boris PM too.

 

[kevo]

He's comedy gold. He will never be President, so just enjoy laughing at the idiot.

Didn't they say the same about Reagan?

 

[carlzeiss]

I guess he can count on the Irish American vote .

But the percentage of morons should be low still, and it doesn't seem that way. Trump is like Hitler FFS, and while the US economy is ok.

Mum! I got the job!
That's great sweetheart!
Mum where's your Burka?
Just washing it darling.
Put your hands on the table and pass me the kitchen knife.

Probably fed up with hearing the same old lies from the political class red or blue who seem completely disconnected from the real world and peoples everyday concerns.

A similar phenomenon is happening in Europe, people desperate for change ... any change.
