George Soros is calling on voters to “resist the siren song of the likes of Donald Trump and Ted Cruz†if the U.S. is to effectively fight terrorism.
Soros, a prominent billionaire, Democratic donor, and founder of the Soros Fund Management LLC, wrote an op-ed in The Guardian titled, "The terrorists and demagogues want us to be scared. We mustn’t give in."

Trump & Soros could not be more different. Great wealth does not make one evil, nor virtuous. On the other hand, the methods employed in creating wealth can tell a lot about one's character. In Soros case, his whole life was an exploitation of others' misery.
I agree with you.
Theo, I’m not going to call you any more names.
You’re doing swell on your own.
Even this simple an issue is over your head.
You and other Cruz supporters are incapable of rational thought.
“You and other Cruz supporters are incapable of rational thought.”
I can see why you like Trump. Resorting to personal insults, just like Trump.
I’m sorry you can’t see the clear logic that I’m laying out: that wealth does not necessarily make someone pure-motived. That’s a common declaration among FReeper Trump fans. But it’s just not true, as shown by the impure-motived Soros.
Theo. I addressed this in my lengthy post to you.
You still don’t get it. I understand.
No one except for you has considered this to be an argument about being rich making you moral or immoral, sound politically or not sound politically.
The only argument made by the Trump supporters was an issue of being beholden to someone.
Unhappy that Cruz has taken money for large donors, you had to find a way to spin this. It’s not working, because you are arguing a point that no one else was trying to make.
In your mind you think you have disproved something. The only problem for you, is what you have disproved is off topic. Nobody was arguing what you’re trying to disprove.
You are incapable of grasping that. We know. We get it.
You’re not only a very sick person, you’re also disgusting and stupid.
And as far as "logic" is concerned....you have none.
Theo is one of THE worst of the worst Cruz supporters here.
He pretends to be just oh so “pure”, but he slings insults and impugnations in all of his posts.
Actually, I think he makes an excellent point. Theo doesn't compare the character of the two men, which appears to be a nuance lost to the posters attacking theo. Theo is simply illustrating that having a vast amount of wealth and claiming to be unbeholden to anyone does not make you pure as the driven snow.
Of course, I don't expect that to be a popular sentiment with the Trumpbots.
BTW, if indeed Trump is unbeholden to anyone, why would he listen to We The People if he's elected?
Really? Wow.
And look at the attacks I’m receiving for having made such a point. I’m stunned at how vitriolic some FReepers are, especially Trump-supporting FReepers. Wow.
That would be Cruz. He is pure as the driven snow. We are told that all the time. In fact, he has achieved saint status.
AND STOP SENDING ME NASTY FRMAIL!
Read many of the posts to Trump supporters on this site and read your own disgusting posts about Trump!
I haven't seen any Trump supporters calling Cruz nasty things, comparing him to a criminal, who was also a Nazi, and who keeps trying to make money from crushing nations' monetary system.
You lie. I simply PMed you, asking you to stop the personal insults. I said nothing “nasty.” You are a liar, not worthy of being called a Freeper.
For the record, this is the exact text of what I FRmailed you:
“Stop the personal insults. They’re very over the top.”
This was your reply:
“What YOU are posting is what’s waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the top; not to mention disgusting ! Don’t threaten nor tell me what to do in FRmail; it doesn’t work and the BOSS won’t like it, when I send it off to him.”
Wrongo.
It was crystal clear what comparison was made by ‘theo’.
Just like the Trump trolls to run away from their petty remarks.
Only, there’s no escaping this one...even if cowboy bob rides in to town to try and rescue ‘theo’.
I did get quite the kick out of your last statement, though, cowboy....
BTW, if indeed Trump is unbeholden to anyone, why would he listen to We The People if he’s elected?
Why? Because We the People are the ones showing up by the thousands to support Trump.
Why? Because Trump is the ONLY candidate NOT owned by amnesty/special interest PACs and who loves this country enough to invest his fortunes in her.
We’re sick and tired of career politicians/govt employees who’ve had decades to turn this mess around, and have done nothing but contribute to our nations downturn. A downturn much like the destruction Soros has continuously attempted to achieve.
So, there’s your Soros comparison.
Just swallow your pride and slink away. Your posts, vis-a-vis the Trump and Soros analogy, are irrational, disgusting, erroneous, and yes, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the top; not to mention damned dead wrong!
Hows about the Trump supporters start making similar analogies re Cruz...no matter how ridiculous? Would YOU sit still for that?
WELL, WOULD YOU ?
BRAVA !
You could have posted, to this thread, your FRmail note, but you didn't. Sending it to me was not only nasty, but the acgt of a poltroon.
