Parliament took up the topic after half a million people signed a petition calling for Trump to be excluded over his call for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States in the wake of extremist violence. Trump has also claimed that some areas of Britain are so radicalized that police fear for their lives.
This kind of sums up the UK view of the possible next President of the USA. I can't remember a more negative view of any Presidential candidate and I'm old...
I would like to hear views of Mr Trump from you crazies who I find a good litmus on world politics.

It would be interesting from an anthropological viewpoint to hear from anyone who is pro-Trump.

About the only thing I agree with him on, is that the worlds become far too "politically correct" these days, and that a return to the less correct would be better.
I disagree with him on everything else.

If it stops Hildabeest getting into office then it's a GOOD THING.

On the heels of what icemann said, it is great to see a candidate that isn't a politician, and who doesn't need contributions from corporations and wealthy businessmen to cloud his intentions and agenda. I just wish it was some other candidate.
That said, in case anyone was wondering, I wouldn't vote for him in a million years. I don't like Hilary either, so that doesn't really leave a lot of choices left.

Sanders? Maybe? His chances don't look great right now but the alternative is Hillary, and a lot of projections are saying that a Hillary-Trump matchup will very likely result in a Trump victory.

I have a more than negative view of him, Medlar, I find him quite frightening and I'm more than a little worried that he might actually become president.

He himself isn't a loon. He's a smart businessman who's pitching to the rather large quantity of loons we have in this country.

If you can't beat them, vote for them policy. Logical.
