Trump probably forgot that America was built by immigrants. There is no ethnic American. On the contrary America is always created good conditions for life and realize their potential for immigrants. That is what made America great.
The US was built by legal immigrants. These immigrants applied for the citizenship and received them. They served in the army and paid taxes to the American treasury. The Mexicans on the other hand are illegal immigrants, who don't pay any tax.

Wont US citizens actually pay this? They are the ones paying import taxes
No. The US citizens won't pay. If the Mexican goods get more expensive, then they will import goods from Canada or Brazil. Already the Canadian Tar Sands producers are salivating at the idea of having an absolute monopoly in the US, at the expense of the Mexican Maya crude.

Exactly, if it comes to a largel conflict the UN will fail just as the League of Nations did
You also didn't mention the aggression on Croatia and Bosnia&Herzegovina Where Vukovar and Srebrenica happened while the UNs blue helmets drank coffee while Serbs butchered and tortured people inside the cities
No one are angels in the Balkans conflict. All the warring sides were engaged in ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity. Serbs, Croats, Shqips, Bosnian Turks.... all of them used violence. In the end, it was the Croats and the Serbs who lost. Serbs lost Krajina and Kosovo, while the Croats lost their territories in Bosnia.

Musk is a scammer and Mars is some small light in the sky within our motionless enclosed Earthly plane, it's not a terrestrial world people can visit. This is 100% propaganda bullshit that NASA and SpaceX are selling.
Terraformation is always a possibility Terra forming is possible but when we take into account we don't even have the technology to put people there and get them back Terra forming the planet seems like and even more difficult thing to do. Terraformation is a MYTH. It can't be put in to practice, because it is an insane idea. There are other similar type of myths, such as time-travel, revival of dead bodies, hyperloop.etc. You need to understand that no amount of scientific advance can make these myths a reality.

The policy enforces a ban on providing federal money to international groups that perform abortions or promote the option.What is the fuss. All Trump has done is stopped Americans' taxpayers from being forced to fund abortions or promote outside the USA. Has abortions been made illegal in the USA? AFAIK it hasn't. It is complex. For example, there is an NGO which provides free medical care to poor rural people in Tanzania. It also performs abortions, if the women can't afford to go to the private hospitals to perform them. It will be unfair to stop all the funding to this NGO, given that only a small part is used to perform abortions.

In some countries comunism is a threat to religions and government. What do you think of the growth of comunism in your country?
I am not living in a communist country but in a Democratic country. There are no difference between communist country and a democratic country. What makes the difference is the attitude of the leader. If you are living in a communist country and your leader is respectful of the citizens then that country would be haven for the citizens but if you are living in a democratic country but your leaders are corrupt you will have no freedom and are living in hell. Name one Communist country where the leaders are not corrupt. I don't know. But when the Communist country changes its path of development to capitalist standard of living of the population increases. China perhaps? China is not 100% corruption-free, but the levels are much lower when compared to most of the other third world nations. Also, the corrupt officials are severely punished in China, and some have been executed for taking bribes.

For some reason I think that Trump will hold the presidency until the end of his term. Or he will fall under the procedure of impeachment or waiting for the fate of Kennedy. You cannot go into politics with such "dirty hands" like Trump.
I don't think that he will be impeached. Even if the senate tries to impeach him (it is difficult, with a 52 vs 48 Republican majority), the U.S. House of Representatives will block the measure. Even the serial rapist Bill Clinton's impeachment failed in the Congress.

The purpose of believers do to create a world of good for people, but the difference is that Christianity wants to give the world good for everyone, and the Islamists want to make it better only for Muslims.
Islamist nations are not good for anyone. Even in 100% Muslim nations (such as Yemen, Afghanistan and Sudan), there is religious violence between various Muslim sects. Since there are no non-Muslims there to target, the extremists target smaller sects of Islam such as the Shiites and Druze.

Trump will create safe zones in the Raqqa province, which is mostly controlled by the ISIS and Turkey. These zones will be located on the Turkish border. Millions of refugees will be hosted there, and the European migrant crisis will be resolved.

Even if bitcoin is $10,000 or any amount,fiat will never be worthless as long as majority of the people will use it on a daily basis. Fiat is easy to use and you can bring it anywhere.
It's not people using fiat that keeps it valuable. Plenty of people were using currencies that were undergoing hyperinflation in the past. In Germany, the German Mark was used by all German citizens, but that didn't save its value from the rapid devaluation brought on by the governments disasterous economic policies. What happened to the Yugoslavian Dinar and the Zimbabwean Dollar in the past, and what is happening to the Venezuelan Bolivar right now are quite similar. The fiat currencies will remain valuable as long as the government is capable of removing the excess supply from the market.

If $20 trillion makes any panic among investors then that would be really a nice news for alternate investment opportunities. Gold and bitcoin will start flying from that for sure. But as per past histories, US government is known for bailing out themselves by simply printing the required amount of new currencies. So, personally I do not expect any big impact out of it.
We have already crossed $20 trillion dollar mark and the markets have not reacted yet: http://www.usdebtclock.org/It's ridiculous. No matter how high it goes, markets don't react to the insane debt, this means that it's going to explode all of a sudden, so let's see what happens during Trumps firs term. Edit: Somehow we are back at $19.6 trillion Right now, the debt is not exerting much pressure on the American economy. This is mainly due to two factors. First, the interest paid on this debt is very low, ranging from 0.7% to 3.0%. And secondly, a large part of the debt is owned by the American citizens and corporations.

If they are screaming about the meat we eat then why God greats the animals we eat? Human can't live health without meat, may vegan must take some pills to take all this vitamins meat gives to them, so it's better to put chemical stuff into our bodies than meat. That is not true. I am non-vegetarian, but I know that a pure vegetarian diet causes no nutrient deficiencies (if the diet is a balanced one). The vegetarians just need to eat protein rich food, such as yogurt and soya.

For me the most dangerous countries are China and Russia, however India is a paradise for animals. India is a paradise for animals.. have to agree. Everywhere in India you can find smelly cows, stray dogs and filthy pigs roaming around. If you harm them, then you will be slapped with a non-bailable offense charge.

i think it is just a silly question ..... asking about a politition that does it trustworthy ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) ? i think not a single politition in the world is trustworthy and not a trustworthy person is polititions..... There are quite a few politicians out there, whom I consider trustworthy. In the United States, there is Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders (although both of them are at the opposite poles of the politics). Others are Trey Gowdy and Mike Huckabee.

i don't think he is same like other polititians and being straight forward is his beauty and i think that's the reason that he is the president of america and i think he will be not like them in the future.....
Russia has always been the enemy of America. Trump wants to remove her sanctions. In order to weaken the Russian economy was created by American and European politicians. Now, when there was quite a bit he leads Russia game. The allies will not forgive. There is no point in prolonging the sanctions against Russia, as they are not having the desired effect. Trump is smart. He has noticed that the sanctions have pushed Russia towards China's orbit. For the United States, China is more of a threat than Russia. He may attempt to pull Russia back to the neutral ground between the US and China.

The most feared is a repeat of the tragedy back in 1998 in Indonesia where the slaughter genocide descendants of china or better known tragedy 98
Just remember that the China in 1998 was different from the China in 2017. China is one of the super-powers now. And if you think that they will just sit back and watch if the ethnic Chinese get slaughtered in Indonesia, then you are wrong. yes i now but you dont know about our country I have never been to Indonesia, and therefore I don't know much about that country. But for sure I know that the Indonesian armed forces are not as powerful as their Chinese counterparts. Also, a ban on the Indonesian exports (coal, iron ore.etc) by China can cripple the local economy.

What about the example of Portugal? Decriminalazing drugs and letting addicts heal instead of putting them in jail cells
That is never going to work in the Philippines. The public is heavily against any such measure. If Duterte tries to legalize the drugs, then the people will remove him and throw him to prison. Decriminalizing drugs may work in western nations, but not in the Philippines.

Americans have made their choice and they have to live with that for the next 4 years. Whether that will turn out to be a good decision or not, time will tell. For me I don't see anything changing from the status quo all the executive orders he has been issuing will not last long until when he understand that longterm effect decisions deserve proper thinking then he will know that he is no better than those he has been castigating.
You don't see any change from the status quo? That is strange, because the entire nation of Mexico is agitating after Trump proposed the import tariff on their products. If you still don't get it, then just wait for the SCOTUS appointment. Hell is going to break loose.....

A war with China would instantly create 1 Million US Jobs...... Hopefully they can find a better way than that.
You need to specify that we are talking about a "trade" war. Yes.... it is going to create a lot of American jobs, provided that the Congress approve tax cuts and other pro-business measures.The chances for a physical confrontation is extremely low. Both China and the US will refrain from attacking first.

Best deal with the refugees can only be the case if the life in the camp on the territory of their country be better than living on welfare in Europe. Enough to stop funding the migrants and they will no longer go to EU countries
That is the most logical and the easiest option. Create safe zones within these countries, where the refugees can reside without the fear of shelling and bomb attacks. But the leftists will be opposed to this idea.
