Dee Man Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 He's clearly a smart guy. He did what he had to do and said what he had to say to get the job. He won't be building any walls or banning any Muslims from America so people need to calm down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more worried about how easily he could be manipulated by the wrong ones, having it would seem no core values apart from getting richer and building monuments to himself. I agree he had the ability to choose the right people for his business, especially his tax accountant, but did he ignore advice from them went he went on his monumentally insane casino building phase in Atlantic City? I fear the only military advice he will take will be from his pet General who seems to have convinced him it would have been possible to take Mosul in a surprise attack overnight. I'm not convinced his business is worth billions by the way, I'd imagine it's heavily leveraged, thus refusing to release his tax records, a juicy scandal would be loans from Moscow banks. The (more than) rumoured cabinet is frightening. Newt Gingrich as Secretary of State? Chris Christie, Rudy Giulliani... he's going with the savage right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Outstanding tears and snotters of delusion, hatred, and envy in here from people who truly believe a man who has built and rebuilt businesses, won an election against the almost entirety of the media and both parties and a paid Wall Street, engaged in repeated high-level negotiations over that period including beating the absolute piss out of The Mighty Alex Salmond & Co, is going to dictate every point of policy from an ego standpoint without surrounding himself with experts and advisors as he has done for the last 40 years, and has literally no credentials or relevant skills for the job. MSM brainwashed halfwits[emoji38] The tears and snotters are embarrassing. The social media 'all about me' has a lot to answer for.But your admiration for this man says a lot. He was handed a fortune. He fucked it right up but blustered through with absolute bullshit. His ability to con people is hardly something we should be applauding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 You'd have to be a fool to predict what Trump will do as President, given everything that's happened. Here are my predictions - He'll only serve one term, and will stand down at the next election - He won't build a wall or ban Muslims from the US - He will make funding big infrastructure projects a main part of his Presidency. Some of them might even get built. - He'll be uninterested in foreign policy in general. - His plan to fight ISIS will be pretty much the same as the current plan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Pre-election predictions were that a Trump win would see the S&P 500 fall by 10-15%. It finished yesterday up. Hmmm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a surprise, I think you could copy & paste all the predictions from the indyref to brexit to the US election and nobody would notice the difference, we're showing so much concern for happenings in American while at the same time quite happily allowing May & Co to decide if and when the UK decide to uphold a vote made by the people with the democratic endorsement of parliament. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
