Trump wanted to be business partners with Qaddafi

[Kalis]

Lol, yeah, that's what it shows alright.

Western businesses were being encouraged to deal with Libya at that time, so it is exactly what it shows.

Pristine logic....no really.....

You said...

Yawn, this was just 2 years before he was killed. During the "second bad period" with good ole Muammar.

However, when Trump was trying to get investment with Gaddafi it was at the time the US had just appointed its first ambassador to Libya for decades, so you clearly did not know that the West had been trying to mend relations.

You do not like Trump, so target him for something relevant, not this load of irrelevant bollocks.

[Quien Soy Yo]

I want Gaddafi back, the Arab League summits are no longer worth watching after he's gone.

Gaddafi was like the Lady Gaga of the Arab world, with the silly attire and all.

[W1sp]

So? We were friends with them.
I hate Trump as much as any other guy, but this is really stretching it.
And it's Buzzfeed, don't link Buzzfeed. Do not read Buzzfeed.

Yay i agree with Kangodo on something. HURRAY . Would have been totally diffrent if it was after the bombings etc started though.

Stop.

It shows he's business man. A business man who will do anything to make more money....which is EXACTLY the type of thing he and his supporters say he won't do.

Secondly, the quip about your logic was pointed at your reasoning for posting in a thread you think is stupid.

Ehm, do you even know what "business partner" means? I really hate Trump, but come on, can't you make a better argument against him than this?

Once again, what exactly did he do wrong? I do not know how many times I can point out that Libya and the West were trying to mend relations before it sinks in.

It is a stupid thread because it completely fails to understand the political situation at the time. If you do not want people to criticise your threads for being nonsense, then do not post one in a forum where you cannot moderate the comments yourself.

Trump loves America so much.

I've answered that question two times already.

I'm also not asking why you think the thread is stupid. I'm questioning the intelligence of repeatedly posting (and thereby prolonging) a thread you think is so stupid.

Yes, I do.

This "argument", shows him to be the hypocrite he is. He's willing to make money over anything else, which he and his supporters swear he won't. It also shows US security and his BS towards the Middle East and Muslims is lip service that is just pandering to the Repub base.

Hilary Clinton did business with the isil terrorists that overthrew based Qaddafi

Yes, I do.

How does wanting to be business partners with Qaddafi mean "willing to make money over anything else"? He thinks Qaddafi would be a good business partner for him; doesn't mean he will be partners with anyone who can help him make money.

He is hypocrite, and he does value money more than pretty much anything else - however your argument doesn't make much sense and doesn't support it in any way.

Sigh......

Jesus Christ.... are you deliberately trying to run around with a blindfold?

From 2003 - 2011 the relationship between the US and Libya was normalizing.
I mean, I get it if you were probably too young to remember and grasp the events. But at least research the timeline and it's events.
And additional information for 2011 itself:

I cant wait till November and all of this Trump talk ends.

Not gonna happen. Even as a loser, he is a high ranking Republican. Will need to hear his opinion on everything Hillary does.

fixed that for you,
I am not buying into him being a republican.

[Breccia]

There are plenty of credible sources about Trump's dealings in the Middle East that you don't have to make up a hypothetical one.

You don't have a choice. He's the party's nominee.

[Zan15]

buzzfeed is hardly a respectable source. Don't believe everything you read on internet

when dealing with trump, you don't need respectable sources.......just shit he makes up

[Wildtree]

Like Rand Paul.
People running under a party umbrella aren't always what the party stands for.

Hence the big backlash against Trump currently from "his" own party.

[Breccia]

Nope. He's the party's nominee. He clinched the delegate count. Everyone else dropped out. He's now the effective head of the Republican Party. Your objections are understandable and irrelevant. You can keep using words like "umbrella" but he's still the one holding the handle.
