    The real test comes when Putin decides to take a bit more of Ukraine, bomb a little more of Syria, put even more forces on the border with the Baltic states.

    Trade protectionism, domestic policies on immigration, even less positive involvement with climate change management are all things that I think the rest of the world will cope with however the foreign policy decisions are where we shall really see if Trump is that interested in serving his nation and the rest of the world or if he simply wanted to win the race and flick Obama the bird as payback for ripping into him over the birth certificate nonsense all those years ago.

    He's a lot older than Hitler. Seriously, he is too old for this.

    One bright thing, so far as the economy and foreign relations and the Supremes, with republicans in control of everything, they have no one to blame. Let's watch our govt and see what can or does happen when they have a blank slate with economy alone. I just hope for the best. I am poised to flinch, though, about what they might pull socially or about human rights.

    Politicians 'backflip' all the time. It's infuriating but that's how it is.

    Trump's proposal to ban all Muslims from travelling to America is absurd, discriminatory and unworkable.

    But at least he understands that America faces problems with unchecked immigration and Islamic terrorism - in that sense Trump is actually ahead of most other US politicians.

    They are all the same. They say whatever they think necessary to get in, and then they welsh on their promises. This was the case ever since Kennedy, the last President I had any real respect for. From Johnson on, they were all liars. Donald DUMP is no exception--KILLary would not have been any better. Once they get in, they are under orders to prepare the nation for communism and the one world government they campaigned (to get in) against.

    Don't count on anything being fulfilled. Gun confiscation will come, DUMP or KILLary. Those microchips embedded in that abomination of a sick care law passed in 2010 will be forced on us by the end of 2017, DUMP or KILLary. Internet II will be imposed, DUMP or KILLary. It matters not who is in, since they are all under the United Nations and will do whatever the Rothschilds want (their One World Totalitarian Government). The last President that genuinely went against that (no, it was not Reagan) got shot in 1963 for trying to issue debt-free currency. Since that, no one decent ever got in.

    More grins - That Bloody wall he promised so often to build ...

    Quote: "Washington: President-elect Donald Trump backed away from his promise to build a wall on the US-Mexican border, saying some areas could instead be "fencing," and added he would move to deport up to 3 million immigrants in the country illegally who have criminal records.
    Trump, who made his pledge to force Mexico to pay for a border wall a centrepiece of his White House campaign, said "for certain areas" he would accept fencing instead of a brick-and-mortar wall, according to excerpts released on Sunday of his interview with the CBS program "60 Minutes.""

    Fulltimestudent,

    Is this another Trump backflip?

    Trump does back flips, forward flips, headstands and yoga postures.

    They are all the same.

    As I've been saying they are not the same. Hillary as president would have left this nation the same as she got it - the status quo. Trump will bring it down to the Abyss.

    Trump says stupid things when he goes off-script...that is, when he starts "winging it".

    His victory speech was CAREFUULY scripted by his team, and therefore was kind of decent and acceptable.

    On the other hand, his many, many rally and campaign speeches were often ad-libbed, and therefore full of stupidity.

    IF he stays on-script according to his advisors, then he will not look stupid.

    However, his ego will probably get the better of him....
