I still have my doubts about Michigan though where Kasich could just sneak past all of them.

Too good to be true

Nice side swipe from the SMH. Grin

Good news about Iron Ore though.

Quote:

Too-good-to-be-true rally for iron ore

Picture Donald Trump being elected president and then getting hit by a meteor just as he began his inauguration speech. That is about as likely as a 19 per cent one-day jump in the price of iron ore.

And yet, here we are.

The reason people attack Trump on trivial matters is because they can't fight him with facts, for example if Trump says lots of illegal mexican immigrants are drug dealers, criminals and rapists they have to retort with oh his name 100 years ago was Drumpf or some such petty sh!t and this is for two reasons, 1. he's right about the Mexicans so no facts to dispute his claims are available and 2. Trump haters love rapists, drug dealers and criminals, these are actually their favourite people in the whole wide world, of course they can't just come out and say that so they really are stuck for a response, its a tough place to be for the m0romic Trump haters so they sh!t their pants and blow a fuse and just dribble Drumpf Drumpf Drumpf instead Grin

How about a proven track record in incompetence?

But then, he may yet take his place among others of his kind, such as Bill Clinton or Jimmy (peanuts) Carter or (dare I say it) John F Kennedy, whose greatest contribution in life, was being assassinated.

Just to prove I'm not biased, I'll include GW Bush in that list.

Republican? No way. Dangerous loose cannon? Absolutely.

None of that really matters to me. He is just a complete clown, a tool, a collective embarrassment to the USA and the rest of the intelligent world.

He does not have to speak to project that, but when he does speak he confirms it.

It is now clear that even traditional Republicans are embarrassed by what they have allowed to happen. That leaves us to wonder about what and who the remaining Trump supporters are.

The only people not embarrassed by him are the real red-necks who accept what he has to say because that's how and what they think on a daily basis, between watching reality TV shows and believing they are real.

So we have a new collective noun ... "A Trump of embarrassments"

What the hell are you even talking about? This subject was unincorporated U.S. territories.

You just described George W Bush. Trump is a thousand times more competent than Bush - thats how trully terrible Bush was. I'm guessing Trump would at least be able to point to where Pakistan is on a map.

And yet, Bush served 2 terms without the world completely falling apart. Sure he caused the deaths of upwards a million people and destroyed two countries - but thats normal for most US Presidents.

Trump will be the same. America will continue its war-mongering and aggression against defenseless impoverished countries, thousands of tinted people will die under the policies of his administration. But no more, and no less than usual - and the world will continue turning the same as it always has.

And I would add to that that in terms of the threat posed to the world by US foreign policy, I doubt you could get much worse than Hilary as President. She is a proven warmonger - supporting all the wars and aggression throughout both the Bush and Obama administrations. If you think back to her time first as a senator then as secretary of state in Obama's administration, you literally can't find a single instance of her opposing any proposed military action or cautioning against military aggression. Trump at least has voiced his support for negotiation with enemies - including, which has chided the republican establishment so much, with Hamas. I would just love to hear a one on one debate on Israel between Trump and Clinton - to expose who trully has the reckless and irresponsible foreign policy on that front!

You don't have to remain uninformed or wondering.

NBC have done excellent analyses after every primary of the age distribution, gender, education etc of who voted for whom.
And if you go back through these pages you will find plenty of comment on where his support is including vox pops a couple of days ago.

Or you can remain uninformed and that will make it easier for you to mouth off your moral superiority to millions of voters in the US.

Correct!

Just like the US and her allies destroyed Germany and Japan a few years ago.

I could always be more informed, I am not yet google but I'm working on it.

Trump however will always be a caricature of what he should be. He will remain an embarrassing clown regardless of my education. The personification of how low the collective consciousness has gone in the USA.
