I guess if our system is a joke to you, it is a good thing the English fled the states following their sound defeat 250 years ago.

If this doesnt blare out warning klaxons I dont know what does.
But the those caught up with the cult of Trump will be blind to it.
I'm a Trump supporter and oppose this choice of his.
Am I a "Cultist" still?
Yea, same here.
I guess it another election of wasting a vote for Gary Johnson or voting for Trump hoping the SJW's keep their promise and move to Canada?

No no fantasy.
We know our politicians are useless and lying scum bags whatever way we vote.
No buying into Feel the hope and change or Make Murica change Again or whatever BS you all buy and get behind.
The closest campaign in years and sunny May weather led to a bumper election turnout with 66.1 per cent of the electorate casting their votes, the highest number in 18 years.
Just 65 per cent voted in 2010, 61 per cent in 2005 and only 59 per cent in 2001.
54.9% voter participation rate in the US last POTUS general election.

Obviously a significant percentage of you Brits is buying into something, or else you'd have nobody showing up to vote in your elections.

For an individual attempting to present the UK as a culture above all of this "buying into" a candidate's message and recognizing your votes are meaningless, your people certainly don't seem to agree with you. 66.1% of registered English voters, eating up campaign messages and British themed political bollocks like bubble and squeak.

I've not veered at all from my initial statement I made after Trump advocated a moratorium on allowing entry to the US from Islamic countries. THAT idea resonated with me and I applauded it. I also realized something, Trump represents the best shot this country has at salvation. If Trump does what he's promised, it will be wonderful for America across the board. "America first," speaking as an American, is exactly what this country's president should always be about. If, however, Trump is a liar and does the opposite of what he's promised, he's drawn in enough people at this point to represent a potential firestorm of backlash which could well burn this mother straight to the ground if they get pissed enough. Again, I win. If the nation is just going to plod along on it's recent slow train to hell, I'd rather see it burnt down so we can rebuild it properly.

You mean my candidate? My dad never has hired anyone with any political background to my knowledge, and since he's my hero, your statement would be in error.
But as far as Trump hiring him... and? Arguably the most respected, honored modern figure in the Republican party was Ronald Reagan. Reagan admitted years later that FDR was his personal idol, and he voted for not only FDR all 4 times, but straight ticket Dem because FDR advised good Democrats to do so. I personally believe FDR was a much larger POS than Soros is, so if that admission by Reagan doesn't make me think less of him, do you honestly think I give a rat's hairy ass that one of Trump's advisers worked for Soros?
