    Default Trump his solution to US problems: anyone taking this serious?

    Seeing he is currently leading the polls, I wonder who here takes his solutions to certain issues seriously?

    I mean I just saw several off his ideas on the main issues (unemployment, oil price, economic problems, war in afghanistan) and on some of the "non" issues birth certificate , obama's records and they seem to be very laughable, something a 2 year old would make up if you let him run the country.

    How come is he leading then?

    Not only that they are filled with false statements or plain lies.

    Can anyone explain the apeal of Trump to certain americans?

    There is no appeal. It is a stage show, and is still too early to know who a frontrunner would be.

    He's leading the polls because everyone else is so quiet.

    Easy to be the loudest voice in the room when no one else is there.

    LOL

    After being embarrassed by Obama three times I don't know if anyone is going to take Trump seriously. Once from the birth certificate, second time at the correspondents dinner, and third by cutting off his show to announce the capture of Bin laden.

    Any time Trump starts running his mouth, cut to his sitting on his ass scowling while getting owned by Obama at the WH Correspondent's Dinner.

    Conversation over.

    Exactly, like everyone else said its too early and everyone else is quiet... but I think his appeal so far that is beating Pauls for instance is the fact he talks so much like a conservative patriot, bashes other countries and says hes going to force country A to do this and blah blah blah. That kind of talk is popular though not practical. He wont win the independents.

    How can forcing OPEC or china be any popular? Its soo completly unrealistic you must be a moron to think it possible.

    Links? Because someone claiming that USA can force OPEC and China do what USA wants should either have a very good plan on how to make it happen or is just blowing hot air baloons.

    Who's this guy you're discussing about in a few words? An Anti-Obama conservative that's in the news these days or someone that wants to earn the nomination from the Republicans?
    alhoon is not a member of the infamous Hoons: a (fictional) nazi-sympathizer KKK clan. Of course, no Hoon would openly admit affiliation to the uninitiated.

    Donald Trump is a billionare businessman. He is not a political force. The only reason this is being discussed is because he's a billionare. And he has some popular television programming.

    He's a populist with no clear ideology.

    Trump is what you would describe as a career white collar criminal. A born with a silver spoon spoiled brat who apperently , without any qualifications and every times he opens his mouth a lot of disqualifiers , wants to be rpesident.. Altough some claim it shows and fake.

    Everything Trump says is wrong and frankly: terrifying for non Americans.

    His economics is terrible for a billionaire.
