>>>As a native NY'er, I ran into a lot of people like Trump. You don't listen to what they say, you watch what they do.

>Yep. FWIW, the way many US people look at Trump, is the way some overseas populations look at the lot of you. Just saying. ;-)


Our country, after being taken from the original inhabitants, was founded by people who were malcontents, who did not believe in the rule of law, taxation, government in any form, or that all men are created equal. They came to this country because they were not willing to obey the laws of their own countries. There is the opportunity to become wealthy at the expense of the majority. This seems like an idyllic haven for those whose interests lies in one's self.

We continue to attract the malcontents of the world. As for the rest of the world, they may hate us immensely, but many of them “love our green”! We do have fools in this country who believe in the rule of law and that you should assist those in need. But do not fear – as long as we have republicans we will have a true and pure environment for those who are rich or aspire to be rich.

Three branches of government are too extravagant. We should have one branch, with one leader who calls the shots. That is so much more efficient. All that we need is a benevolent dictator. :)
