Sounds like Hitler at his most megalomaniac stage.

<gulp> I want to say it begins with...H?

Do these symptoms remind you of anyone?

Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from others
Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
Self-perception of being unique, superior and associated with high-status people and institutions
Needing constant admiration from others
Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
Unwilling to empathize with others' feelings, wishes, or needs
Intensely envious of others and the belief that others are equally envious of them
Pompous and arrogant demeanor

Exactly, what is it in his demeanour, his manifesto, that says to women 'I want him to represent me' confused the mind boggles.

And what will actually change in America if Trump gets in??

Well, our own politics aren't squeaky clean either. But. It's the crazy time and money and effort spent on these elaborate campaigns that get me. Everyone's just getting more and more crazed, I can see the losers being quite incapable of accepting the vote whichever way it goes. Although saying that I don't think I'd accept it if Trump wins either. Who are the women supporting him is what I want to know? confused

He's just so vile.

And I also agree with you Luckygirl

We have Boris Johnson for Foreign Secretary - that's a joke!

Nellsbells Thu 27-Oct-16 14:32:02

he seems to be such a joke that i can't imagine anyone in their right mind voting for him... so what are people voting for?! Is it his racist slurs that attract followers? His disrespect for women?

I know Hillary isn't perfect,but she seems a damn sight better than him...
