The only erroneous claims are by those who include those who (although eligible) did not choose to vote.

As a life long non voter in General Elections I would take umbrage at any figures you used which included my non-vote to attempt to show a lesser approval rating as those that voted gave to any party or person.
Of course I would've, I'm no fan of hilary, could you imagine how dull it'd be if she'd won. I'd have voted bernie Sanders and if that wasn't possible Trump. Like it or not if you're on the electoral roll you're part of the eligible electorate end of story.

I'm not getting into a pointless argument with you.

No I'm not, I was clarifying an incorrect assertion, that's all.

He would survive impeachment because that itself doesn't remove the President from office. They then need to have a supermajority, two thirds of the senate, following the impeachment to actually remove them. However if they did that, and all indications from the time seem to be they would have, then he would have been removed from office.

I must admit I have not heard the theory he could have survived. It was always my impression he had negligible support from congress after the tapes. Remember Nixon was literally facing criminal charges had Ford not pardoned him.

Clinton was impeached but they failed to convict. So he continued.

Never even thought about this but it makes sense.

Donald Trump will lose Los Angeles the 2024 Olympics, say US gold medallists

Put brain in gear before making a pointless post. It will only happen if Trump is still there in 7 yrs time.

OH! I forgot. The USA is the only country in the world where you can train.

At least it is since Russia got caught doping athletes.

The host city for the 2024 Olympics will be announced in September 2017.

The 2024 Olympic Games are awarded this September. Trump's travel bans and anti-refuge approach must surely count against the city's chances of winning the bid.
(If he's doing such a cracking job as some on here believe he is, then doubtless he will be re-elected.)

If he's doing such a cracking job then it's up to the people of the USA to re-elect him no matter what we in the UK think.

Do you realy think no decision has been made about the Olypics already? The announcement in September is for media consumption.

I wonder? Is Golf an Olympic sport?:D

Yes, Golf is an Olympic sport. ;)

A provisional decision for the Olympics may have been made. But I doubt it's any more than that with all potential cities having their issues at the moment.

Please remember that Trump thinks that running America is like one of his businesses. Most of Americans cannot stand him.

If it was then how did Brexit happen? Trump? Or Hollande in France? All of these people and rig world markets and events but not an election?

There is little evidence that governments or supranational organisations have the competence to pull this all off.
It is the preparatory groundwork that is being done at this point in time. Examples being:

Homogenisation of nation states' identity by mass immigration of various cultures.

Bringing in international laws by the back door that subject a nation's own laws to international law courts. the two main vehicles for this are multinational trade deals (TPP etc.) and multinational climate change laws.

Homogenising religion through the Multi-faith religion movement. Every religion has the right to follow any god that they believe in. But to say that all faiths lead to the same god is nonsense.

Global government will come eventually, via ways that we might not expect. And not in the form the elites are expecting; they are just being used to do the preparatory ground work.. Brexit and Trump have just added a very welcomed pause to the globalisation process.

His stance on immigration is one of the things that got him elected.


Did you not see the reference earlier in the thread to a European poll that said the majority supported Trumps stance on immigration?

Sadly liberals don't like the results of a democratic vote that they don't agree with, especially ones that upset their politically correct liberal agenda.


Brexit and the Trump vote demonstrate this admirably.
You do realise that if people had not campaigned against a democratic vote then we would not be leaving the EU ,so by your logic you can thank the liberals for Brexit .As part of the democratic process people will continue to voice dissent against Trump and any other politician that was democratically elected ,that is the very definition of democracy

I suspect most of the people who elected him assumed he would show some common sense and apply some form of logic to the subject instead of simply issuing orders like a dictator
