Why are we surprised? This is a man who preaches protectionism and isolation and rails against companies that move manufacturing jobs offshore while making everything he sells in China, Mexico, Indonesia, anywhere but the US. For him lying is the same as breathing.

Facts are just that, facts. My opinion is irrelevant. Fact checking should be based on facts. Not propaganda nor journalists opinions.
You're not interested in facts Country and Western. You're like the other blinkered halfwits, you like Trump despite the facts because in him you can see your racism and prejudices reflected straight back at you. You ignore the facts that disqualify Trump from any elected office let alone the highest. Here's just a few, all of which would individually disqualify him..
1. Trump U. A Ponzi scheme that ruined thousands of ordinary Americans and over which he's being sued by 3,500. In itself a disqualifier and something that will eventually ruin Trump financially.
2. He said he would force the military to commit war crimes.
3. Advocating the murder of terrorists families.
4. Advocating "punishing" women for having an abortion.
5. Mocking a reporters disability.
6. Scamming hundreds if not thousands of small businessmen out of their money by refusing to pay his bills, forcing many to go bust.
7. Disparaging a genuine war hero, John McCain, while himself being a cowardly draft dodger.
8. Refusing to release his tax returns (we all know why).
9. Perpetuating the birther myth about president Obama.
10. Claiming that an American born judge was unfit to judge him because of his Mexican heritage.
11. Falsely claiming to have seen "thousands" of Muslims celebrating after 9/11.
12. Misogyny (Too many cases to list)
13. Hired white supremacists to work on his campaign and failed until pushed to denounce David Duke (who he obviously admires).
14. Accused by his ex wife and the mother of his children of "violent rape".
15. Asked national security advisors why the US couldn't use its nuclear weapons.
16. Six times bankrupt.
17. Suggested that the "sacrifices" he made as a "businessman" were comparable to those of gold star parents.
18. Using Trump Foundation contributions to pay his own debts.
19. Claimed to see the nonexistent footage of cash airlifted to Iran.
20. Suggested that Ted Cruz's father was involved in assassinating JFK.
21. Suggesting that Muslims should be banned from entering the US.
Etc... There are literally hundreds more. The man is beyond the pale and unfit to run an ice cream stand let alone the US.
Historic news.
USA Today has just endorsed Clinton.
They have never before in their history made an endorsement in a presidential election.
They did it because Trump is "unfit for the presidency".

It bothers me because I live, work and pay taxes here and I care about what happens to the poor and the disadvantaged who would be trampled underfoot in the rush to pay for the tax breaks for the rich that Trump proposes. Not to mention that mindless racist morons would feel they have license to abuse and discriminate against minorities because their leader does (already seeing this). I also care about the damage that he will do to the country as a whole. It doesn't always have to be about yourself does it? Sometimes you do or feel and maybe give a f
k about people other than yourself. Or maybe you don't? Probably not. Personally I'd be fine, I have no mortgage or other debt and cash and diversified assets on both sides of the Atlantic. When the dollar crashes it'll be a good time to convert some sterling. Actually a Trump like disaster would be good for me as it would give me an opportunity to cash in on cheap greenbacks. But the health of the nation and perhaps the world should come before personal gain. Not for you obviously but for some of us. Trump has little chance of winning but if he did you should be more worried than me as the impact on world markets would badly affect a weak post Brexit UK economy.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
