I don't like Donald Trump, but, I won't denigrate anyone that does.
And, for anyone who likes Donald Trump, denigrate means, "to put down".

I didn't really watch The Apprentice but I thought Trump was just acting the part. However it seems perhaps that was actually his real character.
He is certainly showing no tact, just bulldozing through people. I have heard that to get to the top of business you need to be ruthless.

Good on him i reckon.
Whether his actions are right are not for me to decide, i dont live there but as for being a person that does what he says then he gets full marks.
I think he was right to give turnbull a rattle. Its our problem we are trying to deny and lump on another country.
Its about time p.c. got a kick in the groin.
The great thing about democracy is that the majority rule and we should be happy that its this way. He is a product of it and if the rest of the country wants it this way then who are we to meddle.
All this talk of war and hitler makes no sense and see no sense in demonising someone as they want to keep there country safe.
Look at the crime rates of south america and continual fighting of the mid east. Cant say id want to live any where but here and i can understand why someone would want to protect the citizens from becoming just the same.

"

With all due respect, in political science 101, that's called tyranny of the majority, and it's not a good thing. Especially in a multi-cultural society such as ours.

Well, no one should rule, they should represent... that's democracy. Granted our current politicians don't seem to understand that. Having said that, a democratic government should protect all it's citizens, whether they be in the majority or minority.

**Edited again for dodgy drunken grammar...

I thought it was basically a swap, where we were to take refugees from South America & in return, the US was to take our refugees. Both countries liked it because none of the refugees were to go to their prefered destination, so it do not encourage other potential refugees to follow.

The Washington D.C. political “Establishment” really hates Donald Trump. The question is why? The answer is simple. He is a powerful outsider who intends to “Clean House” of establishment corruption on Day One of his presidency. This is precisely why the disreputably entrenched power-elite fear Trump so much. As such, we need to keep in mind that these dug in government criminals will uses every means necessary at their disposal to not get uprooted and maintain their positions of malfeasance.
For those who criticise Trump without payment, maybe you should watch video about her and think.

Humans dont normally work well other than with a "ruler", and even that ends in tears at times.

He is indeed. No idea what your point is though. Do you have a point?
*I got to the point where he said " She has Parkinsons" Not sure if the bloke is a doctor, but hmmmm.

Well, if you're happy to be "ruled" then that's your perogative. I won't judge.

Nathan... I do agree with you on some points, (but mostly not)
However, with all due respect, you are (for the most part) being inflammatory and spectacularly obtuse.
As a sound tech, I'll submit this hard won gem of wisdom.... I would hope the allegory is not lost on you...
Irrespective of the artistic merit of the music being fed to your desk, the only person who leaves the gig thinking that the performance was enhanced by virtue of driving the needles above +0db, is the guy doing it.
When you push it to obvious distortion, pull it back 3db (at a minimum) And listen to the FOH when they point it out.
Just say'n
