Interestingly, during the debates and interviews, he has repeatedly said that "I was not a politician" (referring to past statements on economy, war, politicians, gov policies, et al). I don't recall anyone ever asking him, so Drumpf, now that you're a politician, do you think it's ok to flip-flop and lie!

I bet that Donald watched the movie "our brand is crisis", and came up with his presidential campaign strategy.

There are many good Republicans, I think Kasich is a good guy, but the way GOP has treated Obama throughout his presidency, despite the fact that he has done many good things since becoming the president, is pure evil and racism. I hope the Republicans don't win until they find a decent bloke (unlikely to pick a lass )

You accused me of racism previously which I found equally as disgusting as your comments about Thatcher but I didn't instantly make sweeping generalisations about your character as you are about mine

I agree. American is the greatest country in the history of forever. What I don't understand is why Donald Trump is always dissing this magical wonderland of perfection that is the USA.

This Letter From a Republican Thanking Obama For Saving His Life Will Have You In Tears ‹ Winning Democrats: Winning Hearts and Minds

There was some criticizing of Obama Care here earlier. For whatever faults it has...hit that link and scroll down to the video. It is quite heart warming. For me...that is what the Affordable Care Act is all about.

Anyway, personally I think the whole country should be glad that Trump is running for President, because the moniker of: "dumb American" is now being replaced with: "Trump supporter".

There's blue America, there's red America - and there are Trump supporters.

This from a country who recently elected Justin Trudeau as its leader

Not much of a climate beyond cold and dampness a la the UK. Sweden in particular have some very bizarre laws, especially on alcohol consumption. I can't be bothered to google their economic output but I'm pretty sure it lags well behind the leading European countries, let alone America's
The countries you mention are guppies. Who ever hears of anything coming out of Norway, Sweden or Denmark which impacts the entertainment and scientific world? Sweden did at one time produce a few movies which made it beyond it's borders mostly what could be described as mildly pornographic but avant garde for it's time. It also has one of the highest suicide rates in Europe
