Do you really think it would be eight years? I could see Trump cleaning up the mess then going back to his business empire. He’ll be in his mid-70s after one term...

I agree with you, I think after one term he will have gotten a good handle on getting things fixed and go back to what he enjoys. Especially if he thinks there is someone who WILL continue what he starts.

United Kingdom for Trump 2016!

YouGov
Wikipedia (as accessed on 7/24/2015)
YouGov (also known as UGov) is an international internet-based market research firm, headquartered in the UK, with operations in Europe, North America, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific.[2]

YouGov was founded in the UK in May 2000 by Stephan Shakespeare and Nadhim Zahawi.


Britain falls out of love with America [Survey for The Telegraph.]
The Telegraph (Britain) ^ | 03JUL06 | Anthony King
Tomorrow is the Fourth of July, when Americans celebrate Independence Day. But a YouGov survey for The Daily Telegraph suggests that the Stars and Stripes will be flying at half mast in the eyes of most Britons. There has probably never been a time when America was held in such low esteem on this side of the Atlantic.

Keep in mind they will never vote for Bush, Walker, Cruz, Rubio. May be they will consider Carson if he is the nominee, because I heard positive things about Carson from them.

Forbes? Some kind of flat tax then. My opinion? It needs to have a very, very gradual tax rate, without the steep hard rates increases we have now.

A good selling point would be maybe a 5 year averaging option up front. This would be a good selling point for people now entering the workforce with increasing salaries. It would give them more spendable income and help with college loans.

Re. last comment,...

"More predictably, most Britons believe America is dominated by big business and preoccupied with money. Large majorities of Britons look down on America as 'vulgar' (65 per cent) and 'uncultured' (56 per cent)."

Trump just blamed 2008 financial crisis on Republicans, said Democrats wouldn’t have done that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFR9UZ42vtQ

Interviewer:
"You have said in that past, that you probably identify more as a Democrat, and you've said that in your view, the economy does better under the Democrats...Why, then, are you running as a Republican?"

Donald Trump [Excerpts]:
"When the economy crashed so horribly under George Bush, because of mistakes they made having to do with banking and lots of other things, I don't think the Democrats would have done that...and that was a Republican thing, now would a Democrat have done those same things, possibly, but, ah, ee, ay, an I,...I have seen things done by Republicans that are not good, and not smart. And I wouldn't do that."

If all goes well, won't it be wonderful to have conservative politicians in DC who have spent four years studying "The art of the deal" with the master? It just might save the US.

That's why the puppetmasters should give up on their Jeb investment, step aside, and let it happen. If they cede their control of the party, I really doubt they'll stop being rich and privileged.

You’re right. Trump’s support comes from all different areas that have traditionally been described as repub, dem, or indie.

He pulls repubs, deems, and indies on issues dear to them all, including immigration reform, the economy, and traditional American beliefs like a strong military and hatred of pc speech.

If Trump goes indie he wins with 45%.

But I think it’s bush who will try to go indie after he does not get the r nomination.

A typical republican politician = in pocket of rich donors, pushes for cheap labor express of immigrants (legal&illegal), does nothing to help middle class. They will never build the wall because their rich donors are against it.

I agree with Trump. Bush-43 was in charge, and therefore responsible for the 2008 financial crisis. Let us face the blunt truth, Bush-43 was never a financial genius by a long shot.

The previous president, Bill Clinton, caused no financial crisis in US. Actually jobs & economy grew strongly from 1992-2000. Just the facts, ma’am.

Trump is ALL MALE. There is no doubt about his manliness. He says things the girly boys running do not. The girly boys would rather rumpture their drawers than use a PC word. They would rather talk about fake science (climate change) than problems that are happening in this country. He’s promised to back the police, fully, make our military stronger, make sure veterans have their due, bring back work for anyone who needed work, STRNGTHEN our borders, look at visas and make sure those out of date visas holders are shipped back where they came from. These are just a few things he’s mentioned. I haven’t heard or read about any of the wannabeas talk about these things. We’ve had members of GOPe hanging around from 8 to 30 some years and we’ve lost jobs during their tenure, lost respect from other countries, and the list goes on. We finally have a
Man like my Dad with a pair, made of brass.

Well most Britons are putting up with muslims insulting them daily and taking over their country. We may be vulgar, but as of this moment, we have not become muslimized.

“A effeminate socialist phony is trying to hurt our country.”

If you’re referring to Trump and using the word, “effeminate”, it appears that women in his life believe he’s all man in... well... EVERY way.
