Trump's 1st TV Ad

[petro]

I had to watch this about 3 times to let it sink in.

Trump may not become president but ONE DAY someone like Trump will become president.
A philosopher named Karl Popper said that the flaw in Democracy is that it has the potential to elect a tyrant.

 

[datch]

Thank you, nice comedy sketch. Imagine this guy would be for real

... oh...wait

 

[goatwack]

It's.......not exactly 'subtle'

Clumsy or not his rhetoric obviously resonates with a lot of people, surely nobody that blatant would ever consider running for persident if his message didn't affect a lot of the populace.

He is just using a lot of people's misconceived fears and paranoia to attain power, nothing new there.

Agree or not, I'm sure many decent citizens will feel their country is being torn apart and are looking for someone to blame.

I still can't envisage him actually entering the Whitehouse anytime soon

 

[lockinlove]

I dont mind him or his message. I think hed be perfect for that country...he just needs to tone his drama down

 

[dionysus]

Lol, Trump is selling fear and security. Trudeau sold pot. Just sayin' lol.

 

[hhhelllo]

This is not a joke right? I mean... this can't be real... This guy makes me very uncomfortable with his wall...

 

[vorcirion]

so you build a wall and try to make Mexico pay for it...Mexico says "no"...then what? well at least he'd be nice comedy material for the next 4 years or so just like Bush.

 

[lockinlove]

Very uninformed posts in this thread. Its sad that the media can sway people so much from their little clips for the public. And btw the media is owned and paid by the left wing. Even in Canada thats the case. ie:CBC

As for the ad posted...i think he posted too much in one ad. I think he should have included his support for local education and not core, his want to fix americas infrastructure, taking care of the vets, repealing obama care. etc etc. He focused too much on the controversial stuff

Im interested in politics so ive done a tonne of research on all of this. Read all of trumps books, interviews, speeches.everything. Same with Hilary Clinton

I believe 100% mexico will pay for it. They make 45 billion dollars a year from the united states in trade. Trump knows that and can use that to his advantage.

Id rather him over that pathetic weak idiot Justin Trudeau.

And btw, The director of the FBI, Border intelligence agency and other intelligence agencies have stated there is no way to vet the refugees. They also stated they found fake passport machines held by Isis

Hilary Clinton wants to bring in thousands to North America even though she and her buddy Obama has been warned its dangerous. Trump wants to support a safe zone in Syria.

Trump is also a very successful businessman who has built up tonnes of successful companies. The only falter he really had was in Atlanta when he filed for bankruptcy protection. But I wouldnt quite say its his falter...the entire state was crumbling financially. He made money and left. The USA is 21 trillion dollars in debt. I think what they need is a successful business man.


I laugh at the people saying Trump is inducing fear and taking advantage of it. Really? Last time I looked Americans are constantly dying in their own country by terrorists. And are threated constantly by Isis...al quada etc.

Hes the only one who tried to fight for the USA not to invade Iraq. And low and behold we come to find out he was right.

the reason why Trump is leading in all the polls around America..is because America is tired of the once a month terrorists killing inside their country and their idiotic politicians making promises and not keeping them. They have a chance to elect a successful business man and not a politician...so Im not surprised.

Do I think he will win the election? Probably not..because too many people are swayed by bias and false news clips and articles.

Its either Trump or Hilary. And if america elects Hilary...lol...

 

[geordiecolin]

His next venture is going to be advertising his own aftershave lotion. Its called Au De Trump,so I heard

 

[asadzareef89]

I think what they need is a successful business man.

Not really, trump steaks? trump university etc

He's someone who has built his reputation of success on his father's money, all his private ventures failed miserably

On the plus side, he might let Americans gamble online freely lol,

also must watch

Clinton should make a promise to deport Drumpf to Mexico if she becomes the president.

He had a million dollars to start with. Built that into 10 billion. Hes a very successful business man.

Also, doubt he would allow online gaming. Alot of his friends are in the casino business. Steve Wynne etc...and they dont want americans to play online because they lose business

According to the Forbes "Rich List" Trump has done pretty average increasing his fortune, scoring a self made score of 5/10.

A 1/10 is given to people who haven't increased their fortune.

Trump will never be a president no matter what ad campaigns he launches. Although I'm not a big fan of Clinton but here she is the lesser of two evils.

 

[EbeeDog]

I'm watching to see who his running mate will be.

The next POTUS will be, as always, decide by the Council on Foreign Affairs and the Trilateral Commission.

If they do not want Trump in there and he happens to make it, look for a shot from a grassy knoll. Then whatever toady (like Christie) as VP will be in charge and it will be ssdd.

Isn't it special that all of the other countries know who/what is best for the US?

MaryJean

In all fairness, it's plastered all over the news at every turn. Everyone is getting hyped up for the US elections and I'm genuinely curious to see how this plays out, popcorn in hand

It's not really any different to Obama wading in to the Brexit debate either, at least from a British point of view

 

[MrSilver]

Obviously, it's a Fake video.

 

[Steviedoo]

Canadians have a vested interest because of the proximity....so forgive us if we have opinions...

 

[lockinlove]

And its one of the most controversial presidential races in history so people are going to talk about it especially since Trump is doing so well and polls are showing hes either ahead, on par or a little behind Clinton. So its very very close.

Americans will either elect Hilary which is Obama 2.0. The debt will continue to rise. It now sits at 19 trillion. And America will continue to lose businesses to other countries

Or they will elect a proven businessman who wants to lower the debt. However, he seems much more confrontational which could either be a good thing or very bad.

Both has risk. So its quite interesting to see how it goes. If Trump gets elected, I would be incredibly interested in his 1st 4 months of presidency.

 

[jetset]

I think almost everyone with an interest in politics is following this story and has an opinion - whatever that may be - and that's understandable, because we're discussing the potential next leader of what is still one of (if not the) most powerful and influential nations on the planet.

 

[dionysus]

The man wouldnt know decorum if it bit him in the ass, but at least if it did we could wager in the sportsbooks whether he'd propose to it, wrap a reality series around it, or enclose it with a wall.

 

[MaryJean]

Canadian Interest

Canadians have a vested interest because of the proximity....so forgive us if we have opinions...

You are OH SO CORRECT....the Southern Border that Trump wants to close is OH SO CLOSE to Canada!
And the Traffic, in all of it Glory is moving North at a Very Rapid Pace!

BeWare! It is no Fun! and not Funny! and most of it Very Dangerous!

MaryJean

 

[dionysus]

We're next door neighbours; nations that border others always have a vested interest in what's at the door.
Add to be being by and large, a liberal/socialist country, there is cause and effect.

Why do you think most of us rooted for Sanders?

And all of that irrelevant to the discussion - everuone is entitled to an opinion...we needn't live there to have one. Who helms the US affects the entirety of the planet.

 

[MaryJean]

And that never seases to amaze me.......

 

[dionysus]

Nor us that anyone roots for Trump

 

[MaryJean]

And that never seases to amaze me.......

Rooting for Sanders that is...

 

[dionysus]

Yes, I understood that.

 

[MaryJean]

Yes, I understood that.

Thanks!

 

[hedgehok]

And that never seases to amaze me.......

Probably because you are not exactly the kind of Sanders voter:

Young, liberal, white, male, Northern or Western American.

He is a gift for you. A truly honest, principled man who cares for important issues most importantly climate change and some kind of social justice. You chose Hillary who is a corporate sellout. I won't start with Trump because he's not worth any word.

Whats your problem?

Trumps wants to change Obamas decision and allow the keystone. Trump wants to get paid from us.

Alot of the automobile plants have moved to Mexico, if he builds a wall and tensions escalate, will we still be able to get parts, will the price increase?

Trump wants to bring back coal which scientists say is bad for the environment. We live next door.

Trump wants to end Nafta.


Hilary wants to have open borders and allow Mexicans and Syrians to pour into America without questions/vetted properly. The FBI and other agencies warned this to be dangerous to North America.


So its none of Canadas business is it? Try again.

I said just the opposite....it IS the Canadian's business...to watch out what comes from the Mexican border straight through to the Canadian
border. It isn't that far. I'm talking ILLEGAL......we've had nothing but chaos...much of it caused by our own "liberal" "Sanctuary Cities".

People who think that the Illegal immigrant who is also a many times criminal and deported and returned many times has the right to
kill innocent people on the streets and not suffer any consequences.

Witness if you will "Kate's Law" that has been offered to Congress and they don't pass it! What if Kate was your daughter? She was shot dead down
here in San Francisco, right next to her father, by a many times deported and returned felon, but no reasonable action has been taken and won't be.

What about the millions of children coming into our country without parents and expecting to be fed and cared for. Where is that money supposed
to come from? Many have been just dumped out of busses into unsuspecting small towns who feel obligated to feed them.

If something isn't done about illegal immigration, you too will have to come up with some pretty drastic reality.

My statement was a warning, not a criticism.

Our borders are very close.

And with that I see that there is no use in further arguments on the case so I shall bid you good night and God's Blessings.

When I first read what you wrote it I got the impression that loccinlove had until I read it again..


.Canadians are polite but we have lots of opinions....

Peace

 

[danidavidson]

My boyfriend and I were actually talking about this some day. The fact that someone like Trump will come along and become president. We have all these young people around my age who are able to vote and they think that this man is the person we should have running the whole show! I mean that is just crazy to me. Even if you aren't a Hilary supporter, you know that Trump isn't a good guy.

For his misogyny alone, no one should vote for him...

 

[steveh35]

I would vote for him if I could, Crooked Hillary will sit in the white house for four years and do nothing.

 

[Steviedoo]

Thankfully and glad then you are not able to vote ...and that you have fallen under the spell of the media who has given this candidate a free ride till now....

 

[steveh35]

I have not fallen under any spell and if I had a right to vote I would use it how I saw fit not how you think I should.

America needs a change like the UK did in Brexit and they won't get it keep voting for lefties who only emerge from the White House when they have a charity or promotion to do.

 

[Steviedoo]

....I said I am grateful and thankful you are not voting....that is my opinion...not telling you who to vote for....and yes I am not surprised to know that you are a brexit voter.

Donald trump stands for everything that is despicable in a human...politics aside....I really don't care which party he stands for.....he cannot go around acting like he can do and say anything he wants to people especially women....he is a predator and a liar...he lies about things he says ten minutes ago cuz he just spews garbage....


....and please do not say he does not cuz there have been numerous examples of his behaviour towards people especially women...if you have followed this election at all...many examples have been displayed by him over the course of his campaigning...whether he was making fun of a disabled reporter...or whether it was to call john McCain a coward for being a POW...or by just name calling every single one of his competitors...low energy jeb, crooked Hilary, pocohantas warren...

. This is not how decent human beings behave...

FOR THESE REASONS ALONE HE IS NOT A GOOD PERSON ..and shouldnt be an elected official...especially the highest one in the land....

.I will go back to being a polite Canadian....
