Donald Trump for President?

I've heard and have seen the polar opposite of that article since the primaries
maybe it is written by a left liberal .

Ash - which candidate do you think your country would respect more?
How would they view Hillary (considering her various scandals)?

No matter who wins, we're going to have a President that half of the U.S. populace doesn't respect (although there's nothing different about that as opposed to the last eight years and even prior.)

some of my countrymen and women are not educated enough to form an opinion about trump or hillary .

educated indians would support trump more because of his stand on radical islam---something that forms a daunting challenge to india .

hillary is viewed more by her stand on pakistan than her scandals . she is considered pro pakistan and has an aide ( huma abedin ) who is partly of pakistani descent and is expected to make hillary more pro pakistan .



It's demonstrating that you chose to press Trump fans more than Hillary's on your public forum Yoda.
And if I were on the ballot, this might be relevant. But it doesn't defend Trump, or you, so try again. Here was the question, which you may remember applied even granting what you just said:
I could concede everything you're saying, and you know what you'd have established? That I'm biased and/or a hypocrite. And then what? All the contradictions you've been presented with magically fade away? All the lies magically never took place? Please, explain that thought process. Explain what this is even theoretically trying to accomplish, even assuming it were true.
Also, look at how messed up these priorities are: you spend all your time attacking someone who argues with Democrats, but apparently not enough. But the guy who literally funded them for decades gets your vote. Something's a little messed up there.

And because you didn't handle it evenly and also put a full press on Hillary the entire time, Trump fans shouldn't feel they are obligated to fight against a skewed moderator
A textbook example of the ad hominem fallacy. It doesn't matter if you think my priorities are skewed, it only matters if the arguments themselves are. And since they wouldn't magically become any different if I did press Hillary's supporters more, that makes this an excuse, and not an explanation.

I also don't think it's literally true. I think, if I pressed Hillary supporters more, you'd just find it easier to duck questions because I'd be spending less time pointing out when you do. EDIT: oh, I forgot: you were avoiding questions long before Hillary had even won the nomination, anyway, so this explanation is clearly just post-hoc rationalization.

"You do realize Trump isn't going to get enough delegates, right?" That was a big thing. The delegates, surely you remember that
I'm not sure why that's in quotes, because you're not quoting me.

I didn't think he'd win the primary, but where did I say he had "no chance"?



Just a figure of speech Ash

You don't need a U.S. President to hold your countries 'hand' do you. Geez

Im astonished because most Indians I meet here in the states excel in academics, and since the internet is the internet, Im surprised you all arent at least as up to speed on current events.

Terrorism has to be treated more seriously than what it is? Ok, but there is alot more that can go wrong or happen with the nation besides terrorism. Trump saying "he'll be tougher on them", just isnt enough, or even evidence he can deliver.

But Trump has a plan for terrorism, believe me. And it's going to be SO good! Believe me, the plan is so good that it's going to take care of terrorism and start getting it done. And the plan is to go after terrorists in a way that is so good that we are going to start winning, because we don't win anymore! And the terrorists are going to pay our military to stop them and it's going to be a beautiful thing, it's such a good plan that's going to be so good, believe me!

Now that's a plan!




Donald Trump mocks Hip Hop music as "talking"



Jeremy Diamond, Clinton News Network

Donald Trump on Monday mocked hip-hop music as he once again criticized the performance Jay Z and Beyonce delivered at a rally for Hillary Clinton, asking whether it was "talking or singing."

"The language is so bad and as they were singing -- singing right? Was it talking or singing? Right? But the language was so bad," Trump said Monday during his first of five rallies the day before Election Day.

I found this funny. Though there are many hip hop and rap songs that I like, sometimes when I'm voting in a MoFo Song Tournament, I'll be like, "You call that a song? That's just someone talking!" Even with songs that aren't hip hop.

Banks brace for possible Brexit-style tumult after US election

U.S. banks, including Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase & Co and Goldman Sachs Group Inc, are bracing for potential tumult on financial markets in the wake of Tuesday's U.S. election.

Bank preparations ahead of the U.S. election reflect their experience after Britain's shock vote to leave the European Union in June, when the S&P 500 fell 3.6 percent the day after the poll.

Morgan Stanley told staff to consider using stop-loss orders, an automated trading mechanism that is meant to sell an investor’s position as soon as a stock hits a preset level, if the election result causes trading volumes and volatility to spike.

The bank also told advisers in its wealth management unit to prepare for election-related conversations with clients and pointed them to relevant pieces of research, according to a November 7 memo reviewed by Reuters.

Traders expect U.S. stock prices to swing by about 2 percent in either direction on Wednesday, the day after the election, based on the price of S&P 500 index options. Options on the PowerShares QQQ Trust Russell 2000 ETF, are pricing similarly large swings before the week is out.

Some banks are projecting a more extreme drop in the event of a victory for Republican Donald Trump, with Citigroup estimating that a Trump victory could trigger a 3-5 percent sell-off for the S&P 500.

U.S. stocks rose on Monday as Democrat Hillary Clinton’s prospects brightened after the FBI said it would not press criminal charges related to her use of a private email server.

Investors have tended to see Clinton as a more status quo candidate, while Trump's stances on foreign policy, trade and immigration have unnerved the market.

After the election, Morgan Stanley will hold a call for financial advisers and clients with Chief Investment Officer Mike Wilson on Wednesday morning.

Goldman Sachs is also hosting a call for its private wealth clients led by Chief Investment Officer Sharmin Mossavar-Rahmani and members of Washington lobbying groups Elmendorf Ryan and CGCN Group, according to an invitation sent to clients.

More than half of the stock and bond fund managers polled by Northern Trust in the third quarter said they expected the election to cause a large increase in market volatility.

On Tuesday night, when results begin to come in, JPMorgan will have additional traders on duty in New York to back up its Asian trading teams in case of surges in volume, said bank spokesman Brian Marchiony.

The extra staffing is similar to what the bank did during Britain's vote to leave the European Union, he said.

On Wednesday morning, JPMorgan will hold conference calls to discuss the election results and investment implications with customers, including private banking clients, investment managers and institutional clients.

A Citigroup spokeswoman described similar plans, including overnight staff in New York on the trading floor.

A Kid With Cerebral Palsy Got Ejected From A Trump Rally. Then He Met The President.

J.J. Holmes, age 12, had two very different experiences this weekend.


On Saturday, Donald Trump ordered a 12-year-old boy with cerebral palsy out of his rally. The next day, President Barack Obama shook hands with the boy.

Twelve-year-old J.J. Holmes begged his mother to drive him to a Donald Trump rally in Tampa, Florida, on Saturday. J.J., who has cerebral palsy, wanted to go and protest the Republican nominee’s treatment of people with disabilities.

His mother, Alison, agreed to make the trip. Once they got there, they held up a Hillary Clinton placard and chanted for the Democratic nominee, according to people who were there.

Trump quickly ordered them out of the rally. His supporters responded by “chanting ‘U-S-A’ and pushing [J.J.’s] wheelchair,” Alison told The Washington Post.

“We were put out by security,” she said. “Mr. Trump kept saying, ‘Get them out.’”

As Alison spoke to the Post reporter, J.J., speaking with the help of a computer vocalization device, interjected. “I hate Donald Trump,” he said. “I hate Donald Trump.”

Less than 24 hours after J.J. was harassed and kicked out of the Trump rally, the 12-year-old boy shook hands with President Barack Obama.

The unexpected turn of events began to unfold when a reporter who witnessed J.J.’s experience at the Trump rally called Valentina Pereda, Clinton’s press secretary in Florida.

Pereda was horrified, she wrote in a Facebook post.

“What the hell could I do to make this child even slightly forget that experience?” she said she thought.

Pereda offered to escort J.J. and Alison to Clinton’s Sunday rally in Kissimmee, Florida, where Obama was scheduled to deliver one of his final campaign speeches before Tuesday’s election.

At the rally venue, Pereda decided that the area reserved for people in wheelchairs was too far from the stage. She wanted to get J.J. closer to the president. So she led J.J. and his mother through crowds of people, across muddy turf, to the VIP area near the stage, she said.

With the help of a White House staffer friend, Pereda was able to set up a brief meeting between J.J. and Obama. After the president’s speech, Pereda’s friend escorted them to the other side of the barricades that separated rally attendees from the stage. Obama leaned forward, shook J.J.’s hand and smiled for a photo.

J.J. was ecstatic. His smile was “almost bursting out of his face,” Pereda wrote ― “His body overcome by light, when just the day before it almost succumbed to hate.”

i guessed that captain steel was talking about indians living in india , so i answered about them . many of them are poor or uneducated and dont even have access to the internet , so there is no question about keeping in touch with latest events on the net .

trump is plainly seen as anti muslim and many hindus here have problems with muslims . trump may take a more anti pakistan stand and may not criticise india if it takes measures against its own muslims because of their involvement in terror .



You don't need a U.S. President to hold your countries 'hand' do you. Geez
no we dont . but if we indians have a say we would prefer trump . even if the US president would not affect india in a major manner , whats wrong in supporting the candidate who is likely to be more favourable to india and hindus?

This past year all he has done is spread fear and hate, and no solution being offered. Hell, Im anti-terrorist, but that doesnt mean my opinions worth anything on it. He has had a year to show how he (exact quote) "knows more than the Generals", and truthfully he doesnt know more than most that post on this board. He is out of touch, but knows how to get ratings. Tomorrow we'll see if he can get votes, but this isnt a corporation hes taking over. Hes got no experience in this area, no concept of a end all goal. He just wants to win.

I betcha China knows hes an idiot. That wall idea was theres originally..........in 206 B.C.
