George Soros, the world's richest hedge fund billionaire, has no shortage of opinions when it comes to both politics and the global economy. Famed for making a billion dollars by "breaking" the Bank of England in 1992, Soros is in a semi-retirement, but his prognostications still move markets. And he remains a top contributor on the U.S. political scene, where he supports liberal candidates and causes.
On Thursday evening at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Soros used a 45-minute interview with Bloomberg TV's Francine Lacqua to create an explosion of headlines on both the political and economic front. "Donald Trump is doing the work of ISIS," Soros said, citing the anti-immigrant vitriol that's been a hallmark of the Trump campaign as he's risen in Republican primary polls. He levied a similar critique against candidates such as Ted Cruz, and said Hillary Clinton would win the general election in a landslide.
Ideas like closing U.S. borders to Muslims, Soros said, might "convince the Muslim community that there is no alternative but terrorism." He also said ISIS's "days are numbered" as both the Iraqi and Syrian governments win back territory the terrorist group gained.
The rise of ISIS and the crumbling of the Middle East has created a crisis for Europe, and Soros said German Chancellor Angela Merkel may have erred in opening the country to refugees. "She risked her political capital and lost," Soros said. Nonetheless, he expressed optimism that Germany and other European powers could successfully integrate migrants.

I’m with Vader. It’s totally worth a few lightning bolts to throw this son-of-a-bitch down a hole.
If Soros hates him, I don't.
Hey George!
They hated us before 9-11!
They hated us before the USS Cole!
I’ve hated us when they were pirating our ships in the 1700’s!
You really think that, if we nice enough they’ll be our friend...
I BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF MY BULLY AND IT WORKED.
“Die soon old man.”
He must be about 110 years old now.
So is Soros accompanying Beck and Cruz on the Magical Mystery Tour?
Two questions. What does George Soros get off on and what’s left on the Soros Bucket List?
No alternative to what?
As far as I can see the only reason for a mohammedan to come to "the great satan" is infiltration. They are part of a movement to eventually take over this country for their "caliphate".
We do not want them in our country.
Soros, Calypso Louie, et al, ad nauseum, are very afraid!
So, Soros, one of Satan’s oldest and highest level minions on earth
******************************************************
Soros will be 86 in August. How much longer is he going to be a cancer on our country?
I’m 70 -——He may out last me.
Since it was Soros who said it, Trump’s polls will take another upward leap.
Soros is a dirtbag. He and his ilk are the termites busily gnawing away at the woodwork of Western Civilization. If there was any justice in this world, this piece of filth would have been behind bars decades ago.
Last I heard of Soros, he was still trying to tank the US dollar. But apparently he still hasn’t managed to swallow the simple truth that the mere existence of the USA or any other nation upholding western European Judeo-Christian values is ‘motivation’ enough for jihadi wack jobs.
I can’t stand this @hole - he’s the worst of the worst. The problem is when he goes to a fiery place, I’ve read that he has sons (2 IIRC) that are as bad or worse than he is. So, unfortunately, it looks like his disgusting “legacy” may live on for some time.
It clearly does, but you and I know that they’ll simply vamp up the vitriol. It’s going to fun to read the new jedi mind tricks to untangle this one.
Yes!
What is George Soros' FR nick?
I never knew Soros’ nickname. I just think of him as creepy.
What is it?
