He's gone full Fascist and millions are lapping it up.

 

Scary times.

Best explanation of Trump I've seen.

 

[Bjornebye]

Stupid red-neck cunt

[Rico1304]

He's a nut job, hopefully he's gone too far now.

 

I'm intrigued to how he'd even do it, "Are you Muslim?" "No"

It'd be the same as that wonderful question you used to get on landing cards and criminal records checks - "Are you, or have you ever been, a member of a terrorist organisation".  You can just picture the 'terrorist' trying to enter the country answering that one - "Yes I am.  Hang on, I mean no, NO.  Dammit! You got me!"

[Jairzinho]

Anything to declare?

 

No...YES OKAY A MUSLAMIC RAY GUN.

He's breastfeeding the 'yeah, but we can't go over there and do our religion' brigade.  And he's got enough tit for all of them.

Farage will be jizzing himself after Trumps latest tirade. 

If people needed any reason to hate the West they don't really need to look much past these two arseholes

[skend04]

Obvs Trump isn't too averse to every Muslim, just the 'poor' ones who don't donate to his businesses.

I tweeted that screenshot above of (what I thought) was a very funny description of Donald Trump and it's got loads of re-tweets.  But what has been really enlightening is some of the comments from the Trump supporters.  Including the amazingly deluded "Which is to say he is the voice of the people....And you have a problem with that....Hmm I see".  And also that keeping Obama and not putting Trump in (I'm guessing this American doesn't get the whole 2 term thing) will bring "HELL ON EARTH". Some amazingly deluded people out there.

[Redder Lurtz]

I'm amazed how much credibility he's being given. The man is an utter fuckwad, and a facist to boot.

[Strontium]

I'm convinced it's an elaborate joke. I am enjoying it on that level.

What do you think he's getting out of it? Is it really as simple as a big ego trip and branding exercise?

 

He may be a buffoon but he surely knows he can't win an election from where he is.

[Jairzinho]

I think he's actually on the left and he's just exposing how corrupt American politics is, and how it's become little more than a plutocracy.

Trump is a boon for US right wing politics.  His public expression of extreme opinions on a daily basis is helping to normalise what are still fairly extreme right wing views held by the republicans, but when compared to Trump seem centrist and palatable to the vast majority of the drip-fed voters.  This means that they will be credited for what in comparison appear to be a rational manifesto, but in reality will be a collection of some of the most extreme and radical policies ever proposed by one of the major parties.

Not sure that's true mate. They'll have to follow him towards the crazy to win the Republican nomination and then they can't swim back to win an election.

A while ago I found both him, and the idea of him holding any kind of American office, funny to tell you the truth.

 

Now I find the prospect scary and upsetting.

Media Hassan just wrote an article that George Bush reign is looking like it was a golden age for muslims in America.

 

Good to see their priorities are right, he might just mess up our trade...

 

This could ultimately lead to a crisis at the convention, the Republican Party basically rips itself apart to prevent him from becoming the nominee. There is too much money and too many people who think someone like him would be an utter disaster for trade.

I think you're overestimating the intellectual independence of the US voter Stu.  They won't have to swim back, as the indoctrination will have normalised crazy.  

 

That said, of course Trump won't get near the nomination.

He's a fucking retard isn't he?
