Interesting take.
Look good to whom?Might not this just end up making Trump look good?
What moment was that?We need something more like that Nick Griffin Moment on Question Time, after that Nick Griffin lost ALL credibility with everybody, he may have had some sympathy from his supporters, but he lost all credibility and more important he lost all support amongst his supporters.
If Trump has a good Debate and wins, that won't damage him, it may lift him, he may Impress people. We need something more like that Nick Griffin Moment on Question Time, after that Nick Griffin lost ALL credibility with everybody, he may have had some sympathy from his supporters, but he lost all credibility and more important he lost all support amongst his supporters.
Under a President Donald Trump, the Republican Party would become a different one, a broad, populist coalition focused on workers who have gone too long without a raise and on social programs the party establishment has long seen as anathema to its long-term success.
“Love the question,” Trump said in response to a question from Bloomberg Businessweek's Joshua Green in a profile of Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus published Thursday. The article bears the headline, "How to Get Trump Elected When He’s Wrecking Everything You Built."

“Five, 10 years from now — different party. You’re going to have a worker’s party," Trump said in the May 17 interview. "A party of people that haven’t had a real wage increase in 18 years, that are angry."
Trump reiterated that cutting Social Security would be a "big mistake" for the GOP, remarking that "[c]utting it the wrong way is a big mistake, and even cutting it [at all]."
Oh please....."workers party"? He might as well change the name to National American Workers Party. He's pretty much a neo-fascist.

You think the BNP's vote went up because of NG's appearance on QT?Was that the moment on QT in 2009? Shortly before the general election when the BNP scored half a million votes (their best ever result) and Griffin came third in Barking?
I've no idea. But there clearly wasn't a 'moment' on QT where Griffin 'lost all credibility' like you just said he did.You think the BNP's vote went up because of NG's appearance on QT?
Right. He's a very clever politician, despite not being a politician.I don't want to give the impression that I am in any way sympathetic to Trump, I am not, but this is exactly what I would be doing if I were him. Hillary Clinton triangulates to Republican donors meanwhile he appropriates rhetoric which will win over the people alienated by Clinton. I think that is has the potential to be extremely effective electorally.
Maybe that's the image he is thinking. He is, despite his wealth and background, a pretty down to Earth, rough, conservative, Red Neck type, happy with the intellectually unchallenging, banal stuff of Life, WWF, ffsOh please....."workers party"? He might as well change the name to National American Workers Party. He's pretty much a neo-fascist.
His Party and colleagues went mad on him.I've no idea. But there clearly wasn't a 'moment' on QT where Griffin 'lost all credibility' like you just said he did.
what?His Party and colleagues went mad on him.
In his signature book, The Art of the Deal, Donald Trump boasted that when he wanted to build a casino in Atlantic City, he persuaded the state attorney general to limit the investigation of his background to six months. Most potential owners were scrutinized for more than a year. Trump argued that he was “clean as a whistle”—young enough that he hadn’t had time to get into any sort of trouble. He got the sped-up background check, and eventually got the casino license.
But Trump was not clean as a whistle. Beginning three years earlier, he’d hired mobbed-up firms to erect Trump Tower and his Trump Plaza apartment building in Manhattan, including buying ostensibly overpriced concrete from a company controlled by mafia chieftains Anthony “Fat Tony” Salerno and Paul Castellano. That story eventually came out in a federal investigation, which also concluded that in a construction industry saturated with mob influence, the Trump Plaza apartment building most likely benefited from connections to racketeering. Trump also failed to disclose that he was under investigation by a grand jury directed by the U.S. attorney in Brooklyn, who wanted to learn how Trump obtained an option to buy the Penn Central railroad yards on the West Side of Manhattan.
Well, John F. Kennedy was the son of a prohibition-era mobster, so. . .
No, not all men.All men?
No, not all men.
I mean . . . nothing at all. It was a reflex action on seeing "all men".You mean they found some women stupid enough to join their dating site? I guess she'd have to be pretty stupid to be in favor of Trump.
