Fair enough

America wanted a shakeup in politics and they got it.

The fact he hasn't bankrupt the country yet is good.

He has done what he has said he would do, he hasn't u turned from what I've seen. And he may be a serial lier but I'm pretty sure the common opinion on politicians has been that they are all liers in an attempt to hold on to power for as long as possible.

Difference is Trump has a huge following and his rhetoric as foul as it is appeals to a large majority of people that are fed up with the current climate of politics and political correctness gone mad.

Don't know if you saw Obama rally with Andrew gillum about fighting corruption whilst Andrew gillum is currently being investigated by the FBI for corruption. Made me laugh.

Unfortunately i don't agree with Corbyn being close to centre. I think he's as far left wing as trump is right wing. And he's obviously a compassionate and empathetic man but I think the country would be in a far worse position than it already is with him at the helm and the current Labour party.
