[QUOTE=OvB;48469884]I wish I had a helicopter with my name on it that can take me wherever I want in a moments notice. [B]He's got two of them actually. And two jets, also.[/B][/QUOTE] Well it makes sense, you can have one in maintenance and one always ready to go.
[QUOTE=Zero-Point;48471637]"Okay Trump, your previous statements have had a rather negative impact on your public image-" "The people who hate me for saying what needs to be said are losers, who cares?" "-Yes sir, but you must understand that there's still very few people who support you-" "But I'm #1 in the poll! Screw those other losers, I have more people behind me than they do!" "Yes sir, but if you compare the support for everyone else compared to those who support you, you're quite out-numbered. And even Bernie Sanders is leaps and bounds ahead-" "That socialist loser? Who cares?!" "The point is sir, you need to try and soften your image a little." "Hmm... You may have a point... *snaps fingers* Got it! I'll give kids a free ride in my chopper! If that doesn't sell 'em on my good and gentle nature, I don't know what will!" "Good idea, sir!" "Nobody asked you, loser!"[/QUOTE] sadly this is most likely how he treat's his staff. ..
[QUOTE=Baron von Hax;48471049]Doesn't matter why he's doing it, doesn't change the fact he's doing something nice.[/QUOTE] So if I saw you drunk in the street or on the side of the road with a flat tire and gave you a ride home, but on my end it was I could case out your house for a robbery/murder later it'd be cool because I was nice and gave you a ride home in your time of need? [QUOTE=Perfumly;48471394]The motivation for kindness is important[/QUOTE] Yeah it's great he made some kids happy, but he's scummy for using children to serve his own political means either way.
no Mexican kids allowed, though
[QUOTE=Diet Kane;48473746]no Mexican kids allowed, though[/QUOTE] What?
[QUOTE=agentfazexx;48473930]What?[/QUOTE] Trum has gone on many many racist rants against mexicans that if it were against blacks you would think he was running for Grand Wizard of the KKK.
Welp, looks like I have to vote for Donald Trump. He's so cool. He has a freaking HELICOPTER!
I honestly fear for the future of the US with how high in the polls Trump is
The whole "he wouldn't do it if he weren't running for president" thing applies to like, everything, ever. Not just presidency. Not just Trump. But any elected position where you have to appeal to your voters. Was it cool to that he let kids have free rides? Sure. Is Trump still a dipshit? Definitely. I mean. I'm sure you can even find things Hitler did that we all agree with. Doesn't make his atrocities go away. Doesn't make him any less a piece of shit.
Last week in Florida I took a helicopter tour, one of the best things I have done so far. They are expensive too for how long you are in the air, really cool of him to do that.

"Woow, people look like ants from here Mr.Trump!" "But they ARE ants, Jimmy! And I'm their king!"
[QUOTE=Perfumly;48471394]The motivation for kindness is important[/QUOTE] Cause doesn't matter if the result is the same.
[QUOTE=Squad1993;48471459]Trump is a really nice guy though and he does seem to care about people...just not when you're brown[/QUOTE] ftfy
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;48474190]I honestly fear for the future of the US with how high in the polls Trump is[/QUOTE] The reason people are flocking to trump is because they're tired of fake-ass politicians running into an election and trying to act "just like us!" You see pictures of Hillary Clinton eating a pork chop and having some lemonade or in a cheap van or something and people think "Oh she's just like the middle class, she's just like us!" when in reality she makes 3 million dollars a year and has never worked on anything other than government/politics a day in her life. Meanwhile you see pictures of Trump giving people rides in his private helicopter, and you think "Wow this guy must have a lot of money, this guy must be successful" because he does and is and he's not afraid of showing it off (Unlike deliberately acting like you're middle class so you can "relate" to the general populace) Another reason people are flocking to trump is because he's failed, he's gone bankrupt, and he's gotten richer, and then he's gone bankrupt again, and then got even richer, and each time he learned what not to do and what to do in certain situations, politicians like Hillary? She's never worked outside of the government, let alone ever gone bankrupt. Well I don't personally agree with Trumps ideals, I can see why so many people are flocking towards him, America is a multi-trillion dollar corporation in a lot of peoples eyes (including mine), and who would you trust more with a business, A lady who is manipulating peoples perspective of her so they think "she's just like us!", or a man who currently runs a huge conglomerate thats worth god knows how much (I don't know because the companies private) I haven't brought up bernie sanders, but I believe that he's a hell of a lot more fit to be president than either of them, because bernie sanders both has ideals I can agree with, and he doesn't have the bad reputation of Trump.
[QUOTE=Toro;48483834]and who would you trust more with a business, A lady who is manipulating peoples perspective of her so they think "she's just like us!", or a man who currently runs a huge conglomerate thats worth god knows how much (I don't know because the companies private) [/QUOTE] Well certainly not someone who's been bankrupt multiple times. Not that "America is like a business" is anything more than an asinine one-liner, anyway.
[QUOTE=Mingebox;48483975]Well certainly not someone who's been bankrupt multiple times. Not that "America is like a business" is anything more than an asinine one-liner, anyway.[/QUOTE] Please give me a list of the differences between the American government and a massive corporation.
[QUOTE=Toro;48484023]Please give me a list of the differences between the American government and a massive corporation.[/QUOTE] You mean besides their entire motivations, structures, goals, and functions? Well besides those, I guess I can't think of any!
[QUOTE=RichyZ;48484003]trump went bankrupt multiple times so he could avoid paying debts great president material hes gonna fake out the entire un and drop a nuke in the middle east when they least expect it[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure Trump didn't actually go bankrupt. It was some businesses that he owned that went bankrupt (like the casino in Atlanta).
[QUOTE=sgman91;48484265]I'm pretty sure Trump didn't actually go bankrupt. It was some businesses that he owned that went bankrupt (like the casino in Atlanta).[/QUOTE] 4 of trumps businesses went "bankrupt" as in he filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy, which allows the business to keep running while being reorganized and having debts paid off, trump did lose shit in the bankruptcies though, shit that he probably does not want to lose again, such as 1. A yacht, private jet, and half of the ownerahip of the taj mahal casino in Atlanta 2. Control over the trump hotel and casino, because he had to drop his shares to 25% 3. chairman positiom of trump entertainment hotels, and retained only 10% ownership of the company 4. His salary from trump plaza hotel in Atlanta
[QUOTE=Mingebox;48483975]Well certainly not someone who's been bankrupt multiple times. Not that "America is like a business" is anything more than an asinine one-liner, anyway.[/QUOTE] I understand from your posting history you really are adverse towards trump, but can you at least find and post objective criticisms that aren't based in ignoring truths.
I think one truth that shouldn't be ignored is that electing a racist with no political experience is a bad idea. The only explanation I can see for Trumps popularity is that racism in the US is far more than alive and well or people really dig the Celebrity Apprentice.
Ugh, trawling through the term racists on internet forums is pretty annoying to be honest, we're all a little bit racist, trumps comments about race come more form his stupidity that I believe his actual adversity towards other races. If you look at the GOP candidate line up and don't see them all as being a bunch of bigoted racists I don't know why are singling trump out on this point so much, doesn't seem like a fair characterization to me.
I don't see how that comment was racist, he even explicitly states that they are not all one particular thing, objectively that comment wasn't racist. Every race has rapists in it in some number. Again, that's just his stupidity talking.

Geez, what's wrong with people. There people are being fuckwits about some guy who "knows how to run a business" like if a country was a business And here people are being fuckwits over insecurity and inflation, like if those 2 problems could be solved in no more than 4 years. Fuckwits.

[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;48489727]This election looks more like a TMZ show than the future of a country. It's disgusting.[/QUOTE] yeah, even though it is a trend that has been predicted and long talked about in politic sciences, it's so awful. People focusing solely on personalities and anecdotal evidence rather than plans and ideas. On the other side, I'm actually glad the system, in some way or another, allows people like Bernie Sanders to have a shot and more spotlight. That happening in Argentina? Well, might as well bet North Korea becomes a democracy in less than a year.
