Funny how you ignored the fact that he has hired many women for top positions in his companies. Plus these women speak very highly about him.
You're asking me to prove something hard to prove about people that speak the same way about women as Trump does. It's as if you want me to prove a negative because I can't find proof that shows that my view is right or wrong. You just dismiss it because you disagree and then shoot about women in top positions of his company who speak highly about him. Fyi, this woman gave a mixed view on him and is easily found on google searches, http://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/b...icle-1.2525669 Here's another featuring several more and Barbara Res from the previous one, Former Female Employees: Trump Ahead of His Time

“Now, the other candidates have all got the right rhetoric with respect to the border, but I’ve done something about it. I understand the border . . . I built that border fence in San Diego,” he said
I don't believe the president can pay for the wall and also go to go around congress if they object to it, he'd pull executive overreach the same as Obama has done, just perhaps worse. Hey, aren't Trump supporters (like many Republicans) not fond of Obama executive overreach? Republicans hate executive orders, except when they don't | MSNBC

He is going to put a sanction on companies that move to Mexico. The list goes on. The ones that want to tax more and will drive MORE companies away from the US is Bernie and Hillary
We must recall, concerning NAFTA (which concerns Mexico and Canada, not China; China is not in North America), that it was first proposed (although not by that name) by Ronald Reagan during his 1980 presidential campaign. In 1984 Congress passed the Trade and Tariff Act, that authorized the president to 'fast track' the negotiations, with Congress having the power to approve or disapprove the final agreement. President Reagan first agreed to a trade pact with Canada (later superseded by NAFTA), while Bush entered an agreement with Mexico, pending NAFTA.


The NAFTA treaty was negotiated and signed by President Bush the Elder. President Clinton then signed it into law in December 1993, after Congress approved. Note that President Clinton, who said while running for office that he would sign the agreement, also negotiated side deals with Canada and Mexico to try to protect American jobs.


Here is an article by The Heritage Foundation from 1993 speaking of how Ronald Reagan's vision was realized:


The North American Free Trade Agreement: Ronald Reagan's Vision Realized


Perhaps you were joking when you mentioned China and 'third world countries' as being affected by NAFTA? I shall hope so.

Trumplets live in an alternative universe, which is, of course, why they support the Buffoonarator/

3.) Marco Rubio- insane pro amnesty insider completely controlled by Paul singer, and other big donors, says what he's suppose to, supports free trade agreement written by big corporations


4.) John Kasich- Typical politician, attacks Trump, supported TPP, and then does a 180 and says he doesn't attack people cause it's popular with the focus groups


5.) Bernie sanders - no chance political anarchist with support from BLM and other groups that tear up homes and infrustructure
You sound like the typical uninformed Trump fan.

Let's be real though, no one is perfect, you can find baggage or dirt on anyone. The laundry list you've compiled for each candidate still looks better than a 100 page laundry list that could be compiled AGAINST Trump.

Talk about destroying a person's self-esteem. We should all work and contribute. How the heck else did we build this country and don't get me going on the horrendous waste of money Obama spent. It's sinful. Get a real man in there, not a wuss (think lying cruz) yes I have documented Cruz's lies and little Rubio who did not attend 67% of his sessions! WOW Lazy? You tell me.

Even Fox News doesn't peddle lies like that.

What plans has he laid out? Whenever pressed on these issues he just says he's going to hire a lot of intelligent people to work for him that will figure it out. Deport 20 million Mexicans? How? He'll hire some really smart people. Build a $20 billion wall? How? He'll hire smart people. Bar people from entering the United States based on religious background? Which is illegal I might add. How? That's just the tip of the ice berg. You're truly delusional.

It is not unreasonable to assume that people do not spend hundreds of millions of dollars to stop Trump if they don't not fear financial problems.


As far as your Sanders: He has the very worst voting record on immigration out of the whole pack of candidates. You are worried about his gun policies; we will not have a border or a Country after four years of Sanders. His voting record is worse than Hillary's and hers' is the pits. Take a real hard look where Bernie want's us to go and who is going to pay. Don't get roped in by 'the rich will pay for all' of his give-a-ways; they own no loyalty to our Country.
Well, obviously, you haven't bothered to read the numerous posts about people's worries about the Buffoonarator's proposed protectionist policies.

Japan has many protectionist policies and their economy has been crap for decades, they just keep electing people like Trump to run their government and look at how it works for them. Protectionism only works in poor countries, countries where wages are low and there is little welfare, like China. But even China is getting ready to lay off 8 million employees. China's stock market and currency is in trouble. Manufacturing isn't just gone from the US, it's disappearing everywhere on the planet. It's called robotics, the number of people needed to manufacture just isn't like it used to be. The jobs aren't coming back. That's Trumps grand delusion.

I am well aware of that and the predictions for the next one or two decades. It is also one very good reason to support Trump. Why would anybody want open borders and unlimited immigration when our jobs are disappearing? Robotics/automation is supposed to filter into almost every profession. Thanks to better sensors many of the current migrants will no longer be needed as well as blue collar and white collar jobs. So here we are with our tech industries trying to get all of the available cheap labor knowing the end is near. Truck drivers, taxi drivers, waitresses and many more will disappear - while the rich get richer.


Don't feed me that trickle down crap. We saw what happened to horses with the advent of automobiles; they got phased out and only a fraction still live. The last prediction I saw was that computers will have human intelligence by 2029 - of course that could change one way or another. Once robots make robots; there will be no use for human labor. Do you think the rich will willingly share? Of course government will always have their hand out for their fair share. We need a businessman that understands some of the pitfalls and not just paid guns for hire.

No such luck. Who needs facts when the Buffoonarator give you scapegoats?
