He's a businessman, he manages money for a living. He may not take us completely out of debt but he can fix a good portion of the damage. Sure he's not a politician but he's surrounded himself with people that are more than capable of helping in that area.

Ask anyone successful in his field if they've ever filled for bankruptcy and they'll probably say yes. Even the men who built America went bankrupt(and no, I'm not comparing him to them).

1) you didn't answer my question
2) we're talking about trillions of dollars here. do you have any idea how much money that is?
3) up to this point, our entire collective government has been unable to solve this problem. they've actually made it worse
4) the thing steven said about him going bankrupt a bunch of times
5) how old are you

1,2 and 3) I said he's a businessman and manages money for a living, he may not fix it completely but he is capable of shortening the amount of debt we're in(for lack of better words).
4) I think I've already comment on what Steven said. People file for bankruptcy when their businesses don't work out or as a means of starting their business over you can look it up if you want. Walt Disney, Larry King, Abraham Lincoln(twice), Henry Ford, Mark Twain, Thomas Jefferson all filed for bankruptcy. Trump only filed bankruptcy for a few casinos and hotels while others went flat broke. Bottom line is it happens.
5) I'm 17

Honestly, I don't try to waist my time trying to change people's political views. I do however think it's sad that Hillary, who from what has been revealed in recent years is conspiring with terrorists. Feminist will vote for Hillary because she's could be the First female president, Black people will vote democrat because they feel obligated to(I know this because I'm black, though my family is republican). To me its all said and even Trump isn't the ideal president but he's bettter than Hillary.

What annoys me is how LGB people think Hillary will do good for them when she's accepted money from Saudis that throw gays off of rooves

Only people that deserve to be thrown out of anything are communists out of helicopters

This is almost word for word the same thing you said in your last post. It doesn't address anything I said

Someone who knows how to manage money, knows how to manage debt. Someone who knows how to manage debt is capable of handling debt. Like I said he may not get us out of debt but he can make it better than it is now. If I still haven't properly answered your question here's an article that talks about how he can help our debt crisis:

Remember that running a country and its debt is different than running a company and its debt. Furthermore some of the things he has proposed to get the economy hypothetically back on the track will damage the enviroment in and around America for only short-term financial advantages. I think you also underestimate how much Trump is disliked in Europe, one of America's bigger partners.

That being said I also acknowledge that Hillary is not objectively the best next-in-line for president for many groups. It's just that right now she is the lesser of two evils, which is why some people make her out to be a saint I guess. the LGBT community supports Hillary because on the other side you have Trump who supports things like conversion therapy. Getting Hillary into the white house at least gives more of a platform to the likes of Sanders and other democrats. Third parties aren't much of an option at this point so every vote for Hillary is a vote against Trump.

My knowledge of American politics and its history is somewhat limited given that I focus more on European/Dutch politics so this is where I peace out. The next years may not be the best to come but please do vote your consience and if you want my advice please vote Hillary.

27 posts and no one has bothered to point out that donald trump is a multi-billionaire whose business involvement for the past 30+ years has amounted to "putting his name on things", and he employs swathes of accountants and logisticians who are actually responsible for managing his fortune & ventures. basically like claiming elon musk knows how to engineer an electric car

hillary who is a true blue neoliberal warhawk under open FBI investigation absolutely won't pave the way for more politicians like bernie. he isn't exactly a paragon of leftism but even campaigning on a moderate platform of income redistribution and paying lip service to climate change activism is antithetical to hillary, whose interests lie in that of her corporate financial backers (most notably goldman sachs) and extending american foreign influence. this is all a gross oversimplification but w/e its mcleod gaming

this is why some saw bernie's s**** of hillary during the GE as a kick in the face to his supporters. some said he was, well, cucked. he sucks also but that's a different ballpark

idk claiming to support dead pseudoscience (which trump doesn't afaik, that was all pence) is a far cry from actually having a material history of supporting oppressive regimes that behead gay people irl

but what do i know i live in a country where our head of state is woke, bae, takes cute photographs with cool gays at toronto pride and moseys on home to rideau hall to queue up an arms deal with saudi arabia
