He's not even the most far right in the race right now. Ted Cruz is far to the right of Donald Trump on foreign policy and every single social issue and most economic issues too. The only thing Trump is to the right of him on is immigration. It's always funny American's threatening to move to Canada if so and so wins. One Canadian winter and all those pussy Americans will be right back down here. Too cold! You know those really cold American states like North Dakota, Minnesota etc. All of Canada is north of there.
I don't think Trump would make a poor president because he's the farthest to the right (he isn't). I think he would make a poor president because he's an utter embarrassment to the USA.
I don't want that asshole being the face of American foreign policy.
Oh I totally agree. I was just correcting what I think is an incorrect statement.
I think the ironic thing is Trump is a conspiracy theorist who talks out of his ass all the time, but I've seen him become the subject of many conspiracy theories and people speak out of their ass about Trump at a sort of crazy rate. There is some sort of interesting psychological phenomenon where when somebody doesn't like someone's politics they are willing to believe anything negative about them. A good portion of the Snopes page on Trump gets repeated on here like it's fact. If you are going to criticize someone, you have to remain grounded in reality. Like Trump being the most right wing candidate ever, not just currently, but ever. I know Lemon retracted that, but I bet there is a good chunk of people who believe it. You'd have to believe he's to the right of people like Pat Bucannan, Barry Goldwater, George Wallace, Ted Cruz. etc etc etc. I mean, what??
