many people took that position after Obama won, and as I recall Obama was very very slow to produce evidence. It was a stupid position to take, but he wasn't a politician at the time nor was he running for president, he has since retracted the allegation.

as I previously said he has suggested America go after the families of suspected terrorists,

I don't know if it was 'suspected' terrorists but his point was that terrorists don't care about themselves, but if they thought their actions might have repercussions upon their family they may think twice about it. Also in many cases the families of terrorists know or suspect that something may be going on but do nothing. A fair point, poorly executed. But when it comes to terrorism nothing should be off the table.

he said Mexican immigrants were raping people,

Obviously not all but there are many illegal immigrants in the US that commit felonies in the US, are deported, and then come back to commit more crime, the Kate Steinle case, being the example of the moment.

he has frequently gone after women with comments about their appearance be it the wives of rival candidates, rival candidates themselves or people interviewing him

Not smart, good job that nobody in politics or the media have taken the **** out if him and his appearance though isn't it.

wanted to punish woman who have abortions which not even pro-life campaigners want.

no defence for that one. He immediately retracted it, he just not skilful or experienced enough to check his own wondering mind.

The debates are going to be really interesting. He could very possibly self destruct. It will be very interesting to see what a seasoned politician like Clinton can do. She should by rights take him to the cleaners.

What is he actually going to do when he is President? No one seems to know. We have an idea with Clinton, it's slightly left of Obama but still rather centrist.

She's not left of Obama. You get 4 more years of Obama with Clinton. Which is not very exciting. Obama has been a very mediocre president. He's done very little to better the lives of African Americans.

What is he going to do abroad? What if his commanders refuse to kill the family of a terrorist? Why is that even a discussion point?

Does " go after" mean kill?

I don't think he'll do too much but he has stated that he'll declare war on ISIS, which would be interesting.
