If, God forbid, Trump was elected president...


and then immediately reverted back to his more liberal positions on several social issues, what would the religious right and other assorted right wing scum currently hanging on his every word do? I'd chip into a fund to pay for their getting the hell out of our country.

and the Presidency. His message around terrorism is going to resonate with a lot of people. These daily attacks by radical muslims will make people fearful and suspect that Islamic radicalism is not just a few bad apples, but something far more organized and lethal. As we are seeing with these almost daily attacks.

Is 2 ways. We have a terror attack in summer or early fall and or we do end up in a recession. Other then those two things, the democratic nominee wins.

Because I don't see the Republican establishment stealing this one. Rove and his gang hate Trump more than some Democrats.

4. It would be good for me, since I would learn a second language.

Since I would move to another country, probably Slovakia. They speak a lot of German there, in the western part of Slovakia, and I know a little German, but I hope Slovak is easy to learn. Total immersion, I guess.

6. I don't think Trump with be nearly as bad as the rest on abortion and gay issues

He may say he's pro-life and personally opposed to gay marriage, but he won't do a thing about it. However, the problem is all of the rest of his poison views. They're here to stay.
