Trump

I live in an atrociously racist oligarchy, but one in which the majority are still (thankfully) against Trump.

He has the Republican nomination locked up, but he is the sort of politician that won't unite the party behind him (ie, those who didn't vote for him in the primaries won't vote for him in the general). I think we'll dodge this bullet, but some of the damage has already been done by exposing just how bigoted a lot of this country is.

What's the general opinion of Hillary over there?

You have an awful selection of candidates. Its like saying who is the greatest between jimmy savile Rolf Harris Stuart Hall and Adam Johnson. I think you're fucked whoever you pick

This election is like an IQ test for America, one which it seems to be failing at the moment...
 
This guy has definitely failed:

Final Tuesday Primary Results

Trump.. Hawaii, Michigan, Mississippi
Cruz .. Idaho

Sanders.. Michigan
Clinton .. Mississippi
 
Sanders was 30 points down against Clinton in Michigan last week. Feeling the Bern yet Hillary?
 
At last the USA coming to it's senses and the silent majority fighting back.

Trump calls off Chicago rally following violent clashes
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-us-2016-35791008

How is this good to see in any way?

Don't vote for Trump, all he does is spread hate. Now please excuse me while I assault this Police officer.

Republican voters will rally behind him for this, Cruz and Rubio have just made themselves look pathetic going on air trying to blame this mess on Trump.
 
It'll probably make 'the rapists', 'the muslim terrorists', the woman having a period, the disabled, an on and on, feel a lot better I would imagine.
 
I have no time for Trump, but I do not think that violent confrontation is the answer.

Nor me. But that's the problem with free speech giving evil people a platform to spread hate; there'll always be a reaction to it eventually, as unsavoury as it is

Strange thing is, how it's often the extreme left that causes violence at political meetings. Makes you wonder who the real haters are!

Violence and extremism often go hand in hand whether it is left or right. I would suggest the violence seen before the Trump rally was evidence that when those extremes meet the likely outcome is violence...from both sides.

It was the left who rose against Hitler in Germany, often violently. It was the left who rose against apartheid South Africa, often violently.

As Del says, give evil enough oxygen eventually someone will try and put out the fire - not always by peaceful means.

There is very little difference between the extreme Left and Right, they are both fascists and are against freedom of speech.

I agree. However free speech comes with a responsibility. Trump is railroading free speech and I despair at those defending him.
 
Politicians cant save the world..with russia, north korea and isis we are soon in WW3

In a democracy you can use your vote if you disagree with people, not violence.
I defend his right to speak even if I don't agree with what he says. These thugs are not defending socialism, but showing how easily they are manipulated by the media.
