If the media want to make some one look bad, it's easy because most people are only TV educated and cant think for themselves.

I see Trump on TV and I think what the hell is he really saying that crap, but then I go look into what he is truly on about, not just some stupid sound bite rubbish that's just only totally moronic slandering crap that the deranged media spew out and it's full of filth who want to create a cesspit derelict nation that will just keep going down the drain like it has been.

No one could be so stupid to let the worlds greatest nation go down hill like it has been, it's criminal ! they are bankrupted and not only that they are morally bankrupted due to Political Correct dimwits and all there short sighted simple minded crap, the nation was not built on crap like that and all nations that have swallowed PC have only failed miserably and that's a fact of history.

Of course its important.
The past 8 years have seen triumphant social acceptance for kids with big ears.
Whilst Donald Trump may well redefine hair trends for the next decade.

I hate all of the candidates personally. No matter who becomes the next president of the United States Of America it will affect us as it will the rest of the world.
I suppose all we as Australians can do is wait and see how this all pans out and how it affects the world economy.

When Trump wins this and becomes the next US President it will be a combination of the funniest and scariest times in world history.
Imagine a tea party between Trump and Putin?
Somehow make Prince Harry the king of england and it will be better then watching The Osbournes!

It is highly unlikely that he will win,Clinton has quite a big lead in the national polls.I would be very,very surprised if he wins.He has to many ethnic minorities off side.(Hispanics,Latinos etc...)Cheers

Hardly, the polls in the last week and a half have tightened to the point where he is leading, tying and only narrowly losing. Hopefully it mirrors our 2004 election, everyone loved the new bloke until it came time to vote and they realised they actually had to make a real decision.

Most people never expected him to win nomination either.

When the USA has a crook running for the worlds most important job it's everybody's business.

Barrek HUSSAIN Obama has been fermenting racial hatred for the last eight years,the country is in civil unrest and what the USA needs now is a steady conservative government.I would like to see Donald Trump personally boot that squatter right out of the White house himself.

But a lot of the USA Hispanic and Latino etc are on Trumps side and agree that he is correct in what he is saying about the dregs they don't want in the USA giving the honest ones a bad name.

The media has worked extremely hard to make Trump look bad as they can.

In a Political Correct nation you can't have right wing conservative values according to the PC Fascist drongos and D Trump hates Political Correctness and sees it for what it is, a Derelict brainwashing dictatorship with no true values but hot air and it stinks like a dead rat and he knows it's filth is working towards destroy the USA.

Trump's wife is ethnic and he is not against good ethnic people at all and anyone who thinks he is must be fooled by the deranged socialist Marxist media who only work to twist or slander anything he says.

Clinton is not much better. Hence why both candidates have record disapproval ratings. So the Americans have two choices - Dumb or Dumber

It's the crap that the media push to make out what Trump is saying, problem is you can't watch TV and find out what he is truly on about, they cut it and then twist it all around to make him look bad.
He has being saying what he has been saying for years and years now.

If that criminal old degenerate criminal hag gets in, the problem is that stupid dictating moronic left wing nut job wants to just keep on attacking like a mad dog with rabies, so as to be creating a war with Russia and the USA can not win that war, it's total insane madness to even try to bully them Russians around, they will not be pushed around.
Russians live in a real world and a lot of the USA sadly lives in some little fantasy world nowadays.

About half of the USA want to become a Socialist Marxist Nation now and Russia don't want to go back to that Socialist dictatorship madness load of insane crap, as they truly know just how bad all that madness was to live under, with low life deranged derelicts pushing you around telling you how and what to think 24/7.
We get bullied hear in Australia by the same socialist Marxist PC trash pushing everyone around, you must think this, you must not say that, it's a Horror show I am just waiting for a Dalek to pop up at any time saying, you will obey ! you will obey !!
It's just all low life dimwit PC filth getting pushed down our neck 24/7 by all the dregs and all there lies and stupid little inferiority complexes and hang ups they have.
