-Excellent article on Donald Trumps Foreign Policy.

What does Ted Cruz believe? Where the candidate stands on 10 issues

http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/ted-cruz-believe-candidate-stands-10-issues/

Bernie Sanders on the issues...

http://www.ontheissues.org/Bernie_Sanders.htm

Hillary Clinton on the issues...

http://www.ontheissues.org/Hillary_Clinton.htm

So, we have abbreviated bullet points on Cruz, Clinton and Sanders "on the issues". Where are Trump's?

Oh yea, I forgot…he never states them in detail, let alone abbreviated form. Yet, somehow he continues to win.

The foreign policy statements from Trump are fresh so I posted them in answer to many peoples questions.

You know, it is an open Thread, if you don't like what I posted you can always add to it. Just try to post facts please, I don't believe Trump is Hitler and Bernie is God.

I can't add to Trump's stances on issues as I, like you, have no clue where he stands. Foreign Policy is just one issue.

I agree with you tho that I too don't think Bernie is "god" nor do I believe Trump is 'Hitler". I do, however, believe Trump will be dangerous to the security of our nation if elected. Why, you ask? Because the character we have seen in debates is completely unhinged and clearly insecure as he goes off the wall if anybody criticizes him. Not to mention promoting fear, the "birther" issue against Obama, using disgusting insults, bullying, degrading comments, harassment, promoting violence, not immediately rejecting the endorsement of David Duke...need I continue?

Donald Trump on the issues

Thank you Columbus.

I'm surprised half of those links are not Wikipedia pages considering the rate in which Trump changes his mind.

Net neutrality is another interesting topic. I wonder if it would have any effect on this website.

In the critical winner-take-all Wisconsin primary on April 5, Cruz now has a 5-point lead over Trump, 36 percent to 31 percent, according to a late poll. Ohio Gov. John Kasich trails with 21 percent.

So you didn't just imply that the OldColdAtheist thinks Bernie is "GOD" did you? Irony...

Hmmmmm Hadn't thought of that till just now.

But it does add up. You know, that Bernie statue in your backyard with the fountain and all. Hmmmmmm

Nope, no Bernie statue, but there is a pile of orange-ish dog poo, so maybe I could sell that as a Trump idol.

Honestly Cold, I believe I understand exactly what Bernie is doing. He's simply getting people to start thinking about what can be. It's the beginning of the possibilities, not the end game.

The end game will be when Elizabeth Warren runs and Bernie is simply setting the stage for it.

Yeah, Elizabeth Warren .... the woman who got ahead by being a Native American .... and taking advantage of programs intended for Native Americans ...... even though no one else in her family is one ......

at least she's american, unlike Cruz.

Well now they got his campaign manager! Shut him down! Whatever it takes!

Trump aide charged with misdemeanor battery vs. ex-Breitbart reporter

JUPITER, Florida — Corey Lewandowski, Donald Trump campaign manager, was charged this morning with misdemeanor battery after allegations of forcefully grabbing a reporter at a Jupiter news conference, town police confirmed this morning.

http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/news/l...y-on-ex-/nqtkY/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x62wX5xgohY

Fields and Shapiro were basically fired from Breitbart for being so ridiculous about this. Or quit because Breitbart wouldn't push their slander campaign.

I heard the story and seen this guy grab at a protester (although not violently) but did not see what took place with the reporter, so I can't say rather this is called for or not.

But I wouldn't worry too much 40, Trump will pay his legal fees and he won't get much of anything for a misdemeanor. Probably a fine and a suspended 30 day sentence at most.

MUST
STOP
TRUMP!!!

Their last chance will be Wisconsin. If Trump wins that, he may get all the Delegates he needs. But if he is only one short, they will stop him at the Convention.

With all the Powerful Bankers, Wall Street fat cats and the Republican Establishment out to get Trump, I would not be surprised if the guy gets the Death Penalty!

She was between Trump and a secret service agent and then attempted to grab Trump. She was then pulled back to let the secret service guy next to Trump. Two videos are posted right above you.

The current conspiracy theory is that Fields and Shapiro work for the Daily Wire, which is owned by the Wilks brothers (fracking magnates) who donate heavily to Cruz, and this is an attempt to distract from his sex scandal. The sex scandal had been on hold for several months from Allum Bokhari a reporter at Breitbart but was being suppressed by Shapiro.

Internal conflict at Breitbart and the higher ups side with Bokhari and Milo Yiannopolous. Fields and Shapiro are ejected. Cruz story is leaked to National Enquirer by Bokhari, Milo Yiannopolous, or someone in Rubio's camp.

Just more evidence of Trump supporters being horrifically violent.

They must be stopped! Think of all the arms that might get mildly bruised America!

Yes, I am now retreating to my safe zone. I have been triggered.

40 alias the Manchurian Poster

if they go brokered convention, Trump wins, even if he loses.

the GOP is in crash and burn mode.

Since you and Rocket will be there, don't forget to take the hotdogs and marshmallows for roasting on that open fire.

i was hoping they would allow guns, that way i can light my blunt with the end of the barrel as they fire rounds at each other

safety first, of course. gotta wear ear plugs

The pics are in the link.

ehhh....i dunno. this seems like a massive reach...but then again, who knows. i'm not the law.

Trump Campaign Manager Corey Lewandowski Charged With Battery of Reporter Michelle Fields by Florida Police

https://gma.yahoo.com/trump-campaign-man...topstories.html

Donald Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski was charged today with battery of former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields during a March 8 incident at the Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter, Florida, police said.

“Lewandowski then grabbed Fields’ left arm with his right hand, causing her to turn and step back,” according to the police report, describing new video of the incident. “Based on the above-described investigation, probable cause exists to charge Corey Lewandowski.”

Breitbart Reporter Speks Out After Alleged Trump Campaign Manager Assault

The Trump campaign responded in a statement asserting Lewandowski’s innocence.

“Mr. Lewandowski is absolutely innocent of this charge. He will enter a plea of not guilty and looks forward to his day in court. He is completely confident that he will be exonerated.”

Police documents say that Lewandowski was charged this morning. He was released with a notice to appear in court, police said. Jupiter Police told ABC News that Lewandowski is scheduled to appear in court on May 4.

Lewandowski's attorney could not be immediately reached by ABC News for comment.

Florida state code categorizes a first-time battery as a first-degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine if convicted.

Trump also tweeted, standing by his campaign manager.


Fields tweeted in response to Trump, asserting her story never changed.


Fields first spoke about the alleged incident in an op-ed published earlier this month. Fields alleges she was assaulted at Trump’s news conference on March 8, the night of the Michigan, Mississippi and Idaho Republican primaries, after posing a question to the New York real estate mogul.

“Trump acknowledged the question, but before he could answer I was jolted backwards. Someone had grabbed me tightly by the arm and yanked me down. I almost fell to the ground, but was able to maintain my balance. Nonetheless, I was shaken,” Fields wrote.

Fields shared a photo on Twitter of her bruised arm the day after the news conference.


In her op-ed, Fields went on to say The Washington Post’s Ben Terris identified the aggressor as Lewandowski.

"I watched as a man with short-cropped hair and a suit grabbed her arm and yanked her out of the way. He was Corey Lewandowski, Trump’s 41-year-old campaign manager," Terris confirmed.

Lewandowski denied the alleged incident with Fields and called Fields “totally delusional” on Twitter.


Fields told ABC News' Tom Llamas on March 10 there was "no excuse" for the alleged incident.

“The thing is you don’t grab a female reporter or any reporter the way that he grabbed me and you don’t do that and I just feel like there’s no excuse for it,” she said.

When Donald Trump was asked by reporters following the March 10 Republican debate in Florida about the alleged incident two days before, Trump said, "Everybody said nothing happened. Perhaps she made the story up.”

Get him!

No one controls him!

He is a threat to everything we have made for ourselves while in Congress!
He threatens our family's jobs as employees of the Special Interest Groups!

He must be stopped at all costs!

If that's "battery".........what's this world coming to?

Geez, a guy I go to church with could be called a "batterer" (if that's a word) just for how he shakes hands.

I don't like Trump, at all ..... but that is nothing but a *ahem* trumped up charge.

The guy put his hand on her. He didn't jerk her out of there. He didn't throw her to the ground.He pulled her away from Trump. I have read that there are finger marks on her arm, and that is probably a step too far .... but criminal? In that environment, I just don't see it.

It's that damned liberal state of Florida!

The picture shows a small, very small, discoloration. Heck, I could slightly "bruise" my self right now.

That would be quite unbecoming of you Arch. I mean if taken to the extreme, someone could blow their own brains out right now. Still wouldn't make it right.

Just sayin'.

What??

Who says (other than her) that the slight discoloration is even from the guy? It's on video, pit. Maybe you didn't see it?

She wasn't "thrown to the ground" as she claimed. She wasn't "spun around". She even admits she wasn't sure who touched her.

Come on man, you're reaching.

You do understand that people usually aren't just arrested on "what somebody said", right. I was just joking in my earlier post.

But the fact is that I'm quite sure the video was viewed by police and the prosecutors office. They are who decided to make an arrest and put charges forward. So I believe the outrage should be directed towards law enforcement and the prosecutor rather than some who wish to make this a political issue.

Do I think the charges are "trumped up"? To a great degree I do. But in todays society, if you touch a woman, you're guilty until proven innocent.

Hillary Clinton cannot win US election: Libertarian


The rise of anti-establishment movements around the world will hit global investment, Wall Street profits and Hillary Clinton's chances of winning the presidency, according to a self-described libertarian economist.
Steen Jakobsen, chief economist at Danish investment bank Saxo Bank, believes the "social contract" — the agreement between the ruled and the rulers — is now broken, and this can be seen in the rise of Donald Trump.

Jakobsen says we may have reached a nadir in terms of political ambitions, investments, capital expenditure, employment, inflation and growth. He sees this as the end of "planned economies" that were adopted after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

In a recent research note, he said the ratio between employee compensation to gross domestic product in the U.S. is the lowest in history and corporate profits are at their highest-ever point. This, he believes, is a key reason why U.S. citizens now want anything but the traditional establishment.
