President Trump's megalomaniac ideas will run his 'beloved nation' into the ground
International Business Times ^ | 11/9/2016 | Vincente Fox

Posted on 11/09/2016 10:01:47 AM PST by BradtotheBone

"If you want to test a man's character, give him power" – Abraham Lincoln. This is the quote the United States must now live by because of the choice they have made. Donald Trump's character will not only be tested, but will serve as a boost for his egocentric and megalomaniac ideas that will take his "beloved nation" to the ground.

It's a shame that the US couldn't look beyond that dreadful idea of a wall that hasn't been built yet. The real problem is the illness that Trump has spread all across the country, a disease of fear and anger that won't heal easily, nor soon.

It's unclear how fear of the unfamiliar and hatred for the unknown took over the hearts of Americans. But there's no point in mourning what we could have avoided, and like we say in Mexico: "bailamos con la más fea" – "we ended up dancing with the ugliest person".

Even though Trump is not the prettiest person in the room, we still have to dance with him. Now, we ought to look out for ourselves and find a way to work with the most powerful economy in the world, which is now led by an authoritarian racist.

Donald Trump's promises have an expiration date. When the time comes to truly deliver to the American people, his "billion dollar show" will finally crumble beneath his feet.

He hasn't asked you, Vincente. After this little bleat, why would he?

They haven't gone to bed, they've been up all night sobbing like a jilted lover.

Another kind gracious individual claiming that those who disagree with him are racists and fear mongers.

They just cannot see their own hypocrisy in their reactions to those they disagree with.

Oh yes it has, and we're going to extend it.
Go pi$$ up a rope if you don't like it.

Hey Vinny,

The butt-hurt is strong with this one. You might want to put a little ice on that!

Fox has got the nerve to lecture us on honest government? He needs to stay home and work on his. We need to cancel all the visas of rich Mexicans and force them to actually live in their hell hole country.

Better get those welcome-back centers up and running, Vicente, because you got some people who are going to be coming home.

I think all the Trump detractors are in for a big surprise. You don't become a self-made multi-billionaire by being just a boorish loudmouth.

I'm thinking we are about to see the most effective presidency in modern times. Things are going to get done and they are going to get done fast.

Amazing how this man just keeps getting underestimated.

That's gonna cost him - the wall just grew 5 feet higher....

Perhaps there will be a day when our citizens aren't thrown into their hellholes of jails for minor torts while their folks are expected to be provided for with nothing but the best.

The cake server just quit so they have nothing to eat...
