FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will be considered extreme vetting.At least he changed it from a religious based suspension.

I have decided to follow the OP's advice (Rules?) and will now take a break from the phony scandals. So, no more Benghazi, e-mails, murder lists, White House theft, Rose law Firm, Whitewater, etc..
Thanks Paul. I feel better already now that the right wing cacophony has gone away.

I don't get why some people fixate on the cost of that coat so much? If you are blessed enough to make very good money, why shouldn't you buy expensive pieces you like from time to time? Melania Trump wore a $1100 Gucci bow blouse and the matching $1300 pants to the second debate. I'm not sure why any of that is notable unless you want to buy the coat, blouse or pants.
And isn't Trump vodka dead?

After all this time I finally found something on the suits Trump wears. Apparently he favors Brioni.
Trump, who has been called the “perfect populist,” is not your typical candidate. For decades, he has made his public appearances almost exclusively wearing a suit.
His suits—ill-fitting though they may be, as various commentators have pointed out—are quite often Brioni, a brand known for its luxurious and expensive formalwear. Its two-pieces can easily top $6,000.

FIRST, propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress;Limits my right to decide who will represent me. Increases the power and influence of congressional staff and bureaucrats. Then the limitation on a President does the same thing. Do you agree with the two term limitation on Presidents... or do you feel that your right to decide has been limited?

SIXTH, a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.Serious campaign finance reform is something I can support. Ha, ha! Like Trump himself, BEGGING for foreign money for his elections, until the foreign governments told him to pi$$ off and stop bothering them. Talk about hypocrisy! No doubt Richard will find a way to excuse this behaviour, but he's not a Trump supporter. Nosiree, Bob! You might want to doubt that. No excuse for it. It's one of the things that makes him a scumbag.

So shipping jobs away to other countries, while running on a platform that bitches about companies that send jobs to other countries is the same as wearing an Italian designer? Can you explain that logic?

As far as Trump making things out-of-country (or his bankruptcies or his zero income tax years): He was/is a business man using the laws to his advantage. I don't see anything wrong or illegal in that... and if Clinton were a business woman doing the same thing, I wouldn't have a problem with her doing it either (matter of fact there was at least one year that the Clintons did exactly the same as Donald on taxes... just not on quite as grand of a scale... there's was a ~$700,000 loss that they deducted, giving them "zero taxable income"... if I recall correctly). SOURCEIf people object to the laws... maybe we should CHANGE THEM.

I think of the President as a leader, not a representative. I am fine with term limits for that position. Hmmm... I thought that our President represented us to the world. You can't have it both ways... either you approve of limits or you don't. Pick one. Personally, I approve of them. But... I'd be willing to have a hybrid system. Term limits for EITHER Representatives OR Senators and no term limits for the other one... but that "other one" CAN'T accept lobbyists "incentives" (jail time and forfeiture of incentive if caught).

Trump gave Bangaladesh, China, Mexico, Slovenia and the Netherlands those jobs on a silver platter.

Funny how you never mention his shortcomings, and they are legion.

I only mention the ones that are illegal or immoral AND ignored. Trump's shortcomings are not ignored (not by a long shot)... and many of them are neither illegal nor immoral. Maybe you should look at the media and chat coverage before you complain about bias.

All the more reason to get out and vote for anyone else but Trump. Don'sit back and think 'Trump is losing badly. No need for me to vote against him.'

I don't get why some people fixate on the cost of that coat so much?
Personally not being a clothes horse I don't give a rats behind about any of the clothes any politician wears, just as long as they are covered decently. I also don't care about what any one else wears as long as the stench is kept to a reasonable level.
But when the clothes (or sins) of one person is mentioned and not the other, the hairs on the back of my neck bristles.

One complains Americans are losing jobs to other countries but also has his clothing line manufactured in other countries. The other one bought a coat off the rack.
