honestly Beo, as a trump hater myself, it gets a bit daunting reading you toss so many strawmans in an attempt to slander him. He's a successful businessman, hes a great brander of his own image, hes a successful entity in the public eye via his television shows.

The guy has a fucking horrendous set of policy suggestions and is a terrible flip flopped, how about you focus on the tangible issues with him as a candidate and person rather than spinning a line of BS on his business prowess. All this back and forth about whether staying consistent with business indexes versus running a business is moot. We live in a county that has a high failure rate of new businesses and he has a high success rate of new businesses. Leave it at that...


you don't like building walls or keeping jobs in America?

What's the plan for funding the wall if Mexico declines?

How does he plan on realistically taking the appeal of large wage gaps and automation out of the equation and bringing jobs back through renegotiating bad deals that don't have nearly as big of an impact as what I just mentioned?

How will he get tough with China without creating tensions that could lead to even worse problems and prices?

if by stifling the market you mean taxing American companies who move their factories to Mexico/etc and resell to America then I guess we just disagree here.

Walls work.

the wall is a bad joke like the rest, he got asked several times and never answered.

factory workers are priced out of jobs, holding on to them only damages us all. refocus the next generation to work with computers and let china turn bolts.

go ahead and ignore the rest of it. I don't agree with having only high tech jobs in America. Not everyone has to work at a computer.

i ignored the rest of it because i thought the differences in the comparison were evident, but i guess you used the example so you didn't... Even when walls are placed security and maintenance are required for them to work effectively, that's been true since the Great wall of China got its first set of patrolmen and sentinel towers.

Now ask yourself, will the US pay the same amount in maintenance and security for a southern border fence that keeps out illegal immigrants that the Israelis spend to keep out existential threats of terrorism? No, of course they wont.

If Trump ends up labeling the wall as "just a suggestion" like he did banning muslims what will there be for supporters to hold on to?
