    The market cap of Disney is about 40 times Trump's total wealth. He could no more buy Disney than he could braid his hair.

    Mr. Trump is the world's best negotiator, at his level, one never puts their total wealth at stake. He would form a coalition of like minded wealthy business owners, and in the famous word's of "The Godfather" - "make em an offer they can't refuse." As for his hair style, do you judge the ability to lead America like you would judge a beauty contest, because if you do, Hillary Clinton certainly is a hag, just like Nancy Pilosi, and Debbie Wasserman Shultz. Even Sarah Palin oushines that threesome stirring their witches brew pot............

    That's not what you said. You said he could write a personal check for the whole Disney empire. He couldn't buy 1% of it.

    Works for me.

    Do as we tell you or else?

    Poor ol' Blighty. Who needs friends when we have enemies like you...

    Meanwhile: French freedom fries? French chocolate? Jeez, that must've really worried le Frogcaise.

    Maybe when you decide to punish us oh masser, you'll stop buying British made cars and British produced prunes. That'll tell us.

    And hurt General Motors, BMW, Honda and California.

    One last thing. Do you think you could bring your considerable influence to bear and get Obama to ban the import of French wine again please? It's my favourite tipple and all of it is always at a premium, so if the US stops getting p*ssed on it, the price might lower a centime or two, which'll bring joy to a poor old man like me. :clapping:

    I would not say it is nada. It doesn't come in the form of aid per say. Trump is radical enough to Welch on the Jay treaty, or the tax treaty. IMO that debt has been paid.

    All this is for not any way. Trump won't win. We have many bigots that will vote for him but bigots are not the majority here. That and diebold is already controlled by the CIA, if any voting fraud goes down it will be in favor of the established pawns, Bush, Clinton....

    Well, considering that what America does both financially and militarily affects us directly you can be damned sure we'll be keeping a very close eye on proceedings.

    This just infantile gibberish. All of it.

    GM can't be hurt, Obama rescued them permanently. BWM & Hondo? Both companies where American trade is weighted heavily against us - a major campaign promise of Trump to level that playing field. California? You can have it if you want it. But, I doubt if Britain is prepared for the ugly backlash against it, when our citizens slam the door on you. All of this is just liberal PC panic attack mode because Trump is leading - and it frightens the hell out of the Democrats. Even reached across the pond to gain support. American's care little about England, other than the fact it is Wally World Europe for tourism purposes..............

    Well it's not semantics, it's being 150 billion short of the cost of buying Disney. For all his bluster Trump simply isn't in the league that could pull off buying a real company, especially for cash as you indicated.

    I think it will be a RIGHT and even a DUTY to him, if elected, to barry the English representant from his country, it being done.

    Rubbish. A few 100k Muslims, and some loopy liberal politicians. Nothing whatsoever to do with the British people.

    What's rubbish about a petition that got 500,000 sigantaures in a few days (HERE)?

    Are you able to evidence that hundreds of thousands of Muslims signed the petition? Ot that the political persuasion of others who signed it was liberal? Do you have access to the petition?

    No?

    Thought not.

    Case closed.

    Guess ya think that one person owns Disney? You pool like resources with others, making sure you are a majority owner, and that's how you end up with companies like Disney, or Seiman's or major Hollywood movie studios, or casino's a Trump speciality. But, Mr. Trump is going to be busy - as he is on the inside track to the GOP nomination. Establishment Republican's know that knocking him out of that nomination in favor of purchased professional politicians like Bush, Rubio, Cruz or Christie, now elects Hillary Clinton, and wait until you get a load of her act. The lady that hates the American military; sold Israel down the river; armed Iran with nuclear weapons; set millions of refugees on the move out of the Middle East into European countries, including jolly old England; got an American ambassador murdered and lied about it to the public; and stays with the worst womanizer and morally corrupt man in the White House since John F. Kennedy - Bill Clinton. She gets into power in Washington, and nobody has to worry about American power or hegemony in the world - she detests it, as does the current occupant of the White House - Mr. Obama - and both of them hate each other. America has elected some lames to the office of the Presidency in the past, but nothing would be worse than having to deal with four years of the Hill Chill. We would never recover as a country............

    Lots of backpedaling going on here. You said he could write a check. Even if all his assets combined were converted to cash he couldn't come close to buying a majority of Disney.

    Really? I suppose you have something a little more substantial to offer than your opinion that "A few 100k Muslims" signed the petition? No, of course you haven't.
