Thread: President of the US of A

Ok, it looks like Donald Trump is going to be your next president. I want to know what you guys think about that. To me, writing from the other side of the world, I have a mixed interest. It may not be my country, but the decision you guys make effects the rest of the world. While he is undoubtably a great businessman, I worry that once he gets into international politics he will show the same 'bull-at the-gate' approach that turned people off Reagan and Bush. I reckon his IQ is probably double that of the three previous Republican Presidents combined and I feel that all those Presidents lacked the true statesmanship shown by Clinton and Obama. That said, I am neither Democratic, nor Republican. My personal feeling on politics is that we, the citizens, are the prey caught between two predators and we play a balancing game designed to keep either side from devouring us. In the words of someone who's name escapes me, 'The citizens of a State are like the residents of a prison, except that every three to five years they are given the opportunity to vote on who their captors will be for the next three to five years and the decisions they make justify their imprisonment in the first place.' So, current US politics, what do you think?
