What if Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination this July?

I find the race for the US presidency really interesting this year.  Donald Trump is getting a lot of bad press for daring to speak the truth .. what a liberty?

Well said wigsy. Too many PC/Liberal lilly-livered tree huggers who need to get a grip. Now they want to ban tackles in school rugby too? What are we raising a generation of sissies who cannot lose or take the kits that life throws at them?

Just image what a strange world it would be with Donald Trump as US President and Boris Johnson as UK Prime Minister.

I can think of very many much worse combinations.

The irony, which will be lost on his denigrators, is that he is as smart as they come; fools do not get to become billionaires.

Am I the only one who actually finds it seriously worrying that so called ordinary, reasonable people would even consider voting for this sexist,racist,bullying bigot? Heaven help the world if he becomes American president! Trump over there and Boris over here.....The stuff of nightmares!

And the alternative is...

In fact, he is none of the things you accuse him of; perhaps you have proof that you can share with us?

It's reassuring to read that coming from an American, Jacrotraveler.
The thought of that man(?) being the most powerful person on the planet scares me witless.

I live in America. And you are so right.. Every word that Mr. Trump says is totally torn apart. The whole system is so messed up. I feel ashamed of America's behavior, under this current president, if you can even call him that.

Probably the only thing I can see that is good about a Trump or Cruz nomination for that matter is that either one is probably easier to beat for Sanders or Clinton. Either Trump or Cruz as president would cause America to reel backwards again and end up even worse that the G.W. Bush era. If Trump does not win the republican nomination outright, I suspect he will simply run as an independent.

Donald Trump might be good for America but what about the rest of the world. Being a head of state means you have to build bridges not walls, it means you have to make friends with your enemies. The world is a better place when you have dialogue with people and not just shout them down.
Just my opinion.

My daughter lives in Montana and for years now there has been a steady build up of anti-Obama and anti-Democrats. Much of the feeling is about looking inwards and making the USA great again.
The average American living outside of the cosmopolitan areas is supporting Trumps strong stance.
I think he will win the nomination and hopefully defeat Hiliary. I mean really? Another Clinton?
