    He must be wondering what he has to say or do to lose this election. I reckon he never thought it would go this far and he's shitting himself at the prospect of actually having to do the job, where he knows he'll be exposed as being completely out of his depth. Hence the ever more outrageous comments and behaviour. It's all been one massive ego-massaging publicity stunt for him.

    You could have titled this thread Farage. The parallels between Trump and what's just happened in the UK, are incredibly similar

    You could also label Lloyds with the same...............they are trying to blame brexit on having to shelve 3000 jobs and 200 branches !!
    How very convienient

    The Lloyds share price has slumped almost 25% since the referendum vote. Brexit will definitely mean the banking industry needs to find huge savings.

    That said, Lloyds announcement today is actually linked more to their digital strategy.

    lloyds have also doubled their profits on this time last year.
    Brexit has nothing to do with anything............. just a very convenient excuse, so they can close more branches because people in general use on line banking.

    Its well documented that when he approached Pence as his VP he said he was willing to give him more power than any VP before aka Trump will be "President" in name only and Pence will run the show. Similar to the Bush administration. Still definitely wants to win and it is nothing but an ego trip

    Agreed. The whole Hillary campaign comes across sexist. Her campaign trials lots of famous women and lots of talk about being the first female ect but not alot in way of actual policies which is the important thing. Quite old to be the most powerful person in the world. Still seen by many as a downtrodden weak woman who took back her cheating husband who went with a younger model and humiliated her on a worldwide scale. Then their is her whole email incident.

    Trump is older and has far less to say regarding policies. Not sure how her private life 20 years ago affects her potential presidency. Next.

    About half the Republicans hate Trump, and about the same amount of Democrats hate Hilary. It could come down to who is hated least by their party.

    See I was just about to post that a lot of the criticism of Hillary Clinton is at best thinly veiled misogyny. And then I read this...

    Not sure I get your point. Lloyds are citing the decline in branch use for the decision, not Brexit. This plan has been in place for over 12 months.

    Hillary has relied much more on handouts from wealthy investors too. Trump also comes out with ridiculous stuff so America would be better off with the Chuckle Brothers trying to get in the White House. Stupid he's seen as racist though.
