As domestic gun deaths have killed 1,000 times more Americans than terrorists in the last decade, maybe NRA life member Donald Trump might want to have a think about the best way to save American lives

I dunno. I feel Trump is trying to exploit everyone's fears to gain popularity.
Is it ethically correct to ban all Muslims from travelling to the USA ? What about families who've already booked holidays there ? want to visit friends /relatives ? Whilst limiting terrorist movement, isn't it going to pi$$ off a lot more rational Muslims ? I also remember Obama in the first election, making some claims of what he was going to do whilst in power. Then coming up against unforeseen obstacles. Has he changed gun laws ? Is Guantanamo Bay still operating ? Trump is just making-up any old shlt, just to get in power. That's just the way it is |

Well very little but with regards to this thread, I was envisaging a scenario in which I was actually having to cast a vote in favour of either Trump or Clinton. And the reality is that Trump ticks more boxes in terms of what I would be looking for.
Now that does not make me want to wave a flag for Trump but I have such utter contempt for everything that Hillary Clinton represents that I would favour Trump over her if that is what is on offer. And why I suspect that Trump might actually stand a good chance of becoming President. |

why ? It seems ok to me. We should all do more to help those less fortunate but 'razing' ?

Trump will learn that it is not only "foreign looking" muslims that reside in his country, but also "western looking" converts. In Devon, we had the case of a young Devonian caucasian, who converted and was radiclised into a jihadist style terrorist via the internet. He attempted to bomb a restaurant in the centre of Exeter. Fortunately, only the detonator exploded, and did so in his face.
America are behind us in the understanding of what is actually happening in this respect, but the tragedy for them is that it is difficult to tell the difference between a jihadist style attack, and the routine commonplace nutter's attack over there. |

Matt what is the problem with Clinton that make you so vociferous in your opinions of her? Does that opinion hold for the other democrat candidates as well?

Branding of whole nations as rapists and drug barons? Mocking and making fun of people with disabilities? Hatred of Gay people?

Wanting non WASP people to be on a database or have some sort of badge? Thinking all Jews are "good at doing deals" Wanting no realistic controls on gun use and ownership? Unfettered destruction of the environment in the name of profit? Endless lying on all sorts of issues from thousands of Muslims allegedly cheering 9/11 in NYC to details of his own finances? Blocking people travelling on a religious basis Wanting no controls on big business? The list goes on and on. The man is not fit for any public office except for maybe in the Nazi cabinet in the 1930's.

At the risk of stating the obvious, Trump's comments will no doubt appeal to a certain type of Republican voter who will always vote Republican. He needs their vote to win the nomination.
However, I'd like to think comments like these will repulse the swing voters that he needs to appeal to if he wants to actually win a presidential election. |

I presume this ban applies to all - no exceptions for any Arab business folk and those who own much of his overpriced property. And no need for any embassies eithers.

Has he thought about what he's going to do about the few million American muslims already in the country?
Or those pesky ones that got themselves elected to Congress? |

Despite saying some outrageous and disgusting things. I don't think he is as stupid as people are making out.
He is playing up to poorer Americans. The working class who have been largely ignored and forgetten about. Realistically these people should have socialist tendencies but that is a dirty word in American since the Cold War. The "left" wing in America don't exactly have their back either as they are more interested in being smug in their gentrified techy homes in SF. There are millions of Americans who the system doesn't work for and Trump's anti-immigration pro American jobs platform would be the rational thing for them to vote for, taking it at face value of course. I'm not excusing what a collosal dick head Trump is but there is method to his madness.
