    Donald Trump is a time traveler and has his own time machine. His uncle stole the blueprint for it from Nikolas Telsa. Biff's character from Back To The Future II is based on Donald Trump

    Germany didn't have a second amendment, there is a 0% chance of that ever occurring in the U.S., get out of here with these r-----ed emotionally charged scenarios that have no basis in reality.

    Hitler was a far left nationalist socialist, and he openly rallied against capitalism. he would be disgusted if you compared him to Trump. Such a lazy comparison. Nazi stands for National Socialist German Workers' Party, FFS.

    Nope. I want the electoral college to be proportional and have wanted that for a while now. So instead of a winner-take-all system, if you win 60% of a state's vote, you win 60% of their electoral votes.

    Wouldn't that have the same results as a popular vote?

    It depends if we went by state or congressional district. Maine does something similar with congressional district.

    Edit: as it stands now, the winner of the election has only lost the popular vote five times in our history. So whoever wins the electoral college typically wins the popular vote but not always. Making it proportional would improve it imo.

    Already saying he's down with gay marriage and telling his unruly supporters to "stop it".

    Not off to a bad start. Glad he's sticking to his more central roots.

    I hope not! Putting a white-nationalist as part of your White House staff isn't a good way to start though.

    Yea, I wasn't exactly fond of that choice, either. Hopefully Trump keeps him in check.
