Democratic Party Presidential Candidates



Republican Party Presidential Candidates





I know it's early, but with the 5th GOP debate taking place today, the 3rd Democratic debate taking place on Saturday and less than two months until the first primaries, I thought it'd be nice to have a thread to discuss all the latest developments.

Donald Trump Calls For 'Complete Shutdown' Of Muslims Entering U.S.

WASHINGTON -- Republican presidential hopeful and real estate mogul Donald Trump is calling for a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States" following deadly terror attacks involving Islamic extremists in California and France.

"Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension," Trump said in a statement emailed to reporters on Monday.

"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," he continued.

Trump's call to bar Muslim immigration into the U.S. is just the latest in a series of anti-Islamic statements. He previously suggested shuttering certain mosques in the U.S. and claimed he saw footage of American Muslims cheering after the 9/11 attacks -- footage that no television network has been able to dig up.

He also said he wanted to ask Bill Gates to close up the internet last week.

Should he be taken seriously?

What an idiot

[android]

So instead of concentrating on the extremists this idiot wants to upset all of the world's 1.5 billion Muslims by pandering to the red neck Republican base. Does he not realise he will help to destroy trade and diplomatic relations with countries like Indonesia and NATO member Turkey. Surely Americans can't vote this fool into the oval office.

i hope he gets the rep nomination so that hillary doesnt even need to campaign anymore and still would get like 73% of the votes to become the first woman in office.

[spiritboy]

With increasing terror attacks in US soil, he'll probably have a chance of winning the presidency. Of course he won't ban Muslims from entering US, that's just politics.

Moron.

[NothingFails]

I'm leaving America if we elect this troll

[Preyoncé]

It's like saying "all white people are racist"
What a f'ed up retarded prick!

[AceReject]

He needs to just go already. How about banning all Morons first?

Oh yes.

Gosh. I'm more and more afraid of what's going on in this world :-?

Bernie >>>>> Hillary

[NothingFails]

I love that Republicans still bitch about how "unqualified" Obama was to be president... what are Trump's credentials?

For those who aren't American, or too young to remember... Trump was a celebrity tabloid presence in the 1980s who was famous because he was born into money and for being a playboy and having high profile divorces. He had some vanity companies he put his name on, and then rose to bigger fame thanks to a reality show where he had the catchphrase "you're fired". He is no different than a Kardashian... and yet people want this reality tv troll as a leader?

There are plenty of theories going around he's actually standing as a favour to Bill Clinton. Apparently they had a telephone conversation back in May that they don't talk about Personally I think it unlikely but stranger things have happened

[Taurus]

I don't understand how he thinks that's possible. THe president doesn't just give orders and everyone has to follow. It doesn't work that way and you can't be doing stuff blatantly against the constitution. Theres manipulating it with your interpretation and then there flatout going against it. He's so silly and evil.

[Storyteller]

Surely Trump is just taking the piss, I mean he’s maid millions and millions so he can’t be this think
Honestly he must be trying to get the republican nomination just so Hilary can have this on lock.

[joiPrince_JO]

The saddest thing is that Americans will actually elect him.

[stevyy]

Bernie >>>>> Hillary

why?

I worship Hilly.

He's not a stupid, he just talks what stupid people (electoral) wants to hear.
And believe me, there's so many stupid, primitive and uneducated people around us.

The saddest thing is that Americans will actually elect him.

It's the tragic thing :evil:

Bernie would make an amazing president, but I don't think America is ready for him.

[NothingFails]

Bernie is no-nonsense and unlike Hillary, he isn't bought and paid for by big companies.

I'd rather see Hillary than any Republican, but I think Bernie could be the best president we've had in decades. Bernie could actually unite this country, Hillary winning will just bring forth 4-8 more years of Fox News paranoia and bigots claiming that she's trying to take their guns and whatever

Can an American, ie: NothingFails or someone explain for me please, if Trump does become the Republican candidate, how possible is it that he'd actually win the Presidential race? I know that's an impossible question to answer, but I'm interested as to just how dangerous a threat he'd be as the standing candidate? Could he actually win? :-?

That's people said about Hitler as well. Most Republicans think like Trump, they're just afraid to say it.

What is it with this dude?
