The Official 2015/2016 Donald Trump GOP Thread ok..this guy has made soooo many controversial statements ...I think its time for a thread!!! latest: https://www.yahoo.com/politics/donal...214105912.html Donald Trump calls for ‘total and complete shutdown’ of Muslims entering U.S. Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump called for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States” until the country’s representatives can “figure out what is going on.” The Trump campaign released a statement Monday afternoon declaring his commitment to preventing Muslim immigration. The campaign justifies this discrimination by saying that large segments of the Muslim population bear “great hatred towards Americans.” “Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension,” Trump said a statement. “Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life. If I win the election for president, we are going to make America great again.” The release cites a recent poll from the Center for Security Policy, a Washington, D.C.-based national security think tank, which said that 25 percent of U.S. Muslims asked think that violence against Americans in the United States is justified as a “part of the global jihad.” It’s unclear how wide-reaching Trump’s proposed ban would be — does it include leaders of countries that are U.S. Muslim allies, like the King of Jordan, for instance — or how he’d specifically carry out such a plan. Representatives for the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Yahoo News. But when asked by The Hill newspaper whether Trump’s theoretical ban “would include Muslim-American citizens currently abroad,” spokeswoman Hope Hicks replied: “Mr. Trump says, ‘Everyone.’” Ibrahim Hooper, the national communications director for Council on American-Islamic Relations, was startled that a major contemporary U.S. political figure would make such a sweeping declaration. “You have to wonder what he is going to call for next. I don’t even want to go there,” Hooper said to Yahoo News. “You have to wonder what he says next as he ramps up his anti-Muslim bigotry to new heights. It’s completely astounding. I don’t know what to say.” Trump’s statement comes a day after President Obama addressed the nation to discuss terrorism and warned against letting the war on ISIS be defined as a “war between America and Islam.” “ISIL does not speak for Islam,” the commander in chief said. “They are thugs and killers, part of a cult of death, and they account for a tiny fraction of more than a billion Muslims around the world — including millions of patriotic Muslim Americans who reject their hateful ideology.” In an interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” just last week, Trump boasted about his relationship with Muslims. “I have many Muslim friends,” the real estate mogul said. “They’re wonderful people.” |

If this guy becomes president, I'll lose complete hope in America. |
America deserves Trump. Okay, that was bad.............. I'm sorry, America. Here I thought Bush (both of them) was bad. This guy is a total fucktard/nutjob. Not sure if he's trolling, though. Any publicity is good publicity, right? My guess is, he wasn't beaten up enough in prep school. Come to think of it, maybe it was getting beaten up everyday that turned him into who he is. Money over common sense - brains and class. His friends are only friends because. I would never trade places with him. He's arrogant, pompous, .......... in fact, a new term needs to make its way into the American dictionary. Trump............ he's such a "Trump" = ultimate insult. Like, "yray, you're such a trump." just an example......... so solly. Trump rhymes with chump, lol. |
Why not ban all jews? oh wait................ CIC :troll: |
whats funny is people get their panties in a knot over everything he says it's obviously a huge facade, he'll say anything to get people going, and with it he gains more pub and more followers. I bet you a HUGE portion of the population couldn't name 2 other candidates |

I actually have quite a few American friends that support a Trump/Carson card. The state of affairs in the US is shocking. Regardless of liking or disliking Obama, it seemed like a lot of the world rallied around the US when they elected him president. Now the way they treat him and the way the election is going it looks like they will only become more of a joke than they already are. |
he's not the only one making insane statements, most his running mates have too! it's just that it seems trump has gotten the most attention that supposed neurosurgeon has made just as insane, if not worse, comments the pilsbury doughboy too, etc etc |
Seems like a lot of Americans like Bernie Sanders as well.. All I know is he's old as fuck and wants to legalize weed |

The republicans will find an adult to run in November. On my way home the other day I saw a "One Big Ass Mistake America" sticker. Predictably, it was jacked up pickup truck. A lot of the people with those attitudes around here remind me of the people from my home town who left high school to work the oilfield (and are now offing themselvesindroves. But the only difference is that there are less Confederate flags on trucks here then there are in Courtenay. Quote:
Trump may switch up and start to pretend to be a real candidate after bullying the rest of the Republican party choices. Doesn't mean he'll get elected though. |

Its a shame because it was the party of Lincoln. They tout the fact that their party supported abolitionism but conveniently forget they supported and created Jim Crow laws. |

The Republican nomination will probably end in a brokered convention. No way in hell is the "establishment" GOP going to let him run in general election and basically have him destroy the Republican party brand for years to come. And I guess the dems plan to plant Trump in the GOP race worked out perfectly for Hillary. :fullofwin: |
White House says Trump’s plan to ban Muslims ‘disqualifies’ him from presidency White House says Trump?s plan to ban Muslims ?disqualifies? him from presidency - National | Globalnews.ca The White House said Tuesday that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s plan to ban Muslims from entering the United States disqualifies him from being president. “What Donald Trump said yesterday disqualifies him serving as president,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said. “And for Republican candidates for president, to stand by their pledge to support Mr. Trump, that in and of itself is disqualifying.” Earnest said that the first thing a president does when he or she takes the oath of office is to swear an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. READ MORE: Donald Trump compared to Adolf Hitler, Lord Voldemort after Muslim ban proposal “What he said is disqualifying,” Earnest said. “Any Republican who’s too fearful of the Republican base to admit it has no business serving as president either.” During a campaign rally on Monday, Trump called for a “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.” “Our country cannot be the victim of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in jihad and have no sense of reason or respect for human life,” Trump said. Earnest described Trump’s campaign as a “carnival-barker routine” and urged other Republican presidential candidates not to support Trump if he becomes the party’s nominee. Earlier Tuesday House Speaker Paul Ryan told reporters that Trump’s proposal “is not conservatism.” “What was proposed yesterday is not what this party stands for and more importantly, it’s not what this country stands for,” Ryan said. “More importantly it’s not what this country stands for. Not only there are many Muslims serving in our Armed Forces, dying for this country, there are Muslims serving right here in the House working every day to uphold and to defend the Constitution.” In reaction to Trump’s proposal on Monday, the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) said “Donald Trump sounds more like a leader of a lynch mob than a great nation like ours.” “He and others are playing into the hands of ISIS. This is exactly what ISIS wants from Americans to turn against each other,” Nihad Awad, executive director of CAIR, said at a press conference. –with a file from The Associated Press |
