Given the current pool of fools, I'd vote for Trump. Hell, I'd vote 10 times like an ACORN rep if I had nothing to lose. The community organizer turned out to be all wind and no win.
I've been saying it for years: Learn Chinese. Your kids and grandkids will be fighting a war with China. They see it and are preparing for it now. The United States doesn't have the money to pay back the debt we owe China and some excuse will be made, for the "war," and thus void all the debt.

With every fiber of my being I'd like to disagree with you, but I'm afraid you are correct.....
I've been reading some of Trump's comments about China and how we are giving all of our money and jobs to them via a huge trade deficit.
Is anything being done about it? Could Trump strike a cord with Americans frustrated with unemployment and toxic China products? He's supposed to make a decision in 4 months as to whether he will run for president.
Donald Trump is virtually unelectable. He has absolutely no political base and no support at all. Notice that the people he hang out with are Hollywood types or celebrities. He has NO connections with the heavy duty elites or upper class. He mostly cavorts with the nouveau riche (NBA/NFL/Hollywood/WWE stars) rather than with politicians such as Brent Scowcroft or Henry Kissinger or academics like Greg Mankiw.
Also, the upper class that I mentioned do not have a lot of respect for him because he hangs out with Hollywood types so he will not gain their support at all. Notice that he does not reside in any of the white glove co-ops in the Upper East Side but rather in his own building. The fact that he has his own tacky TV show and a former model for a wife (rather than a well connected businesswoman/old money heiress) pretty much spells his doom. He is more or less a laughing stock for the upper class/elites.

no, but my opinion is irrelevant. we always need someone to blame and if it's not muslims then china will do. china is not the problem, we are. we blame them because WE'VE become uncompetitive. we blame them for currency manipulation without considering for 1 minute that we are the world's biggest currency manipulators. while it is true that their military is building up, the chinese seem to have a better foreign policy with most nations than we do. they trade with them but don't interfere in their domestic affairs. if anything, we should learn from them as they learnt from us

This is the only reasonable post in here.
Americans have long adopted a culture of shifting responsibility to others. This is also apparent in our foreign policy. The US needs to stop blaming others for its own errors and faults, and it needs to learn what others are doing right.
