President Donald Trump!

Thank you; very, very appropriate.

Thank you Misslizard. I got caught up in what followed, James McMurtry, We can't make it here anymore.

It spoke to what we lost by sending our jobs away. In the path of Woodie Guthrie, Joe Hill, he sings of the feelings of people who knew a better world, had hopes and dreams, and saw it all shipped to China, and Mexico coming in to work for $5 an hour.

It did not save the world, Mexico is not a fun place, China the air kills people, and the rest of the world is now even poorer.

For a Free Country, we stole it, we have been through some hard times. We also had some great firsts. We were a light to the world, because for all of our wars and depressions, we still produced a higher standard of living.

The rewards were worth the effort.

Starting with NAFTA, our rewards were exported.

Open borders let anyone come and pick up what was left, which was all we had to rebuild our dreams.

Three quarters of America will not see education beyond High School. Those that get degrees still cannot find jobs, and the pay when they do is low.

The bottom four fifths of America never recovered from the Recession, on top of Globalization.

Questioning this I get told I hate people with brown skin. That there is no such thing as race, yet I am a Racist.

That is not true, I hate the White people who did this.

Regaining control of our land, rebuilding our manufacturing, making Made in USA the standard product, and imports limited to things we cannot do.

I agree we do need some Mexican labor, and should have a Guest Worker program.

We also need American workers, and not just in New York and Silicon Valley.

Work is our sense of self worth, our social life, our community.

We cannot maintain our sense of being a group by bringing in a billion from Africa and India.

We do have more, but if the whole world had the same amount, we would all be living on a dollar a day.

Countries that do, do not build new things. Problems grow, hopes and dreams are forgotten.

We will not give up our world for Thieving Corporations, Whores in Congress, or some weird ideas of Social Justice.

Control of the Borders, support for Domestic Employment, Fair Wages, are modest demands.

We still have the idea that people will come to their senses and we can restore our country.

If that idea dies, so will the country.

America is done, stick a fork in it. The Rump candidacy and hoopla is a last hurrah of a myth.

Trump is limited in what he can do to stop globalisation of the capitalist way of life...changing demographics is one of these changes that are coming. The market will ultimately decide his hand, just as it has done with Obama and all the leaders in the world following the collapse of the Iron Curtain.

He is good for a laugh though. Like watching Don Quixote. Or maybe McDon McQuixote to not sound too Hispanic .

Hope not! America is where I keep all my stuff!

mee too but I suspect TPTB would separate us from not only our stuff but our very liberty and lives to better convenience their over-privileged selves.

If we kept shopping, that would keep em happy.

that's just the thing, only those in the middle and upper classes these days have any disposable income. so by dint of that, working class like me are surplus, "useless eaters" in the view of TPTB.

What do you think about seeing little kids walking around your neighborhood on Halloween wearing a Donald Trump wig? Do you think they should complete the look by putting orange color makeup on their face? And there's the white makeup for around their eyes which shouldn't be forgotten.

(friends in the US... I presume that you are aware that the word Trump means FART here in UK English?)

President Trump I don`t see why not.

He has enough money behind him and is suitably sexist, racist, selfish and utterly full of himself, he has already been able to whip up right wing crazies into a froth. He wears that ridiculous rug with absolutely no sense of irony... he has it all!

He knows that this minority of crazies will work with ten times the zeal of the sensible majority in the US to get him elected... so he is on to a winner by appealing to the most base instincts of these loons... a tried and trusted strategy.

So he seems the most perfect candidate to be the most powerful man on the planet since George Dubya Bush and his dollar powered family.

If only Rupert Murdoch could run.

God bless America.
Yee haaa!

that is exactly what The Rump makes my rump wanna do. only it would be in his general direction.

Latest poll, Trump leads against all by five points.

The Nation says, Trump 45%, anybody else 40%.

Also, people who have not voted in decades, say they are going to this time.

America has had enough of Washington lies, how we had to send your jobs to Mexico and bring illegal Mexicans here to take your children's jobs.

The spike in Trump support followed the recent news from Europe, Africans flooding over the border.

this is scary.
Trump tried to steamroller Scotland trying to make them remove a wind farm because it spoiled the view from his golf course and the Scots saw through him and told him where to stick his putter.

I have seen arrogant people before but this pompous arse takes the biscuit.

He didn't want his golf course to look like Teletubbieland!
