Saudi Prince calls Trump a 'disgrace' - but the tycoon fires back
DailyMail.com ^ | 12 December 2015 | Reuters And Associated Press Reporters

Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal has called Donald Trump a disgrace to the United States following his call for a ban on Muslims entering the country, and demanded the Republican front-runner withdraw from the U.S. presidential race.

Trump triggered an international uproar when he made his comments in response to last week's deadly shootings in California by two Muslims who authorities said were radicalized.

'You are a disgrace not only to the GOP but to all America,' Prince Alwaleed, the chairman of Kingdom Holding, said on his Twitter account, addressing Trump and referring to the Republican Party.

'Withdraw from the U.S presidential race as you will never win,' the prince, who is worth $24.9 billion added.

Within hours, Trump's response came back, also on Twitter.

'Dopey Prince @Alwaleed_Talal wants to control our U.S. politicians with daddy's money,' he said. 'Can't do it when I get elected.'

Trump's comments have already cost him business in the Middle East, with a major chain of department stores halting sales of his glitzy 'Trump Home' line of lamps, mirrors and jewellery boxes.

On Thursday, Dubai real estate firm Damac, which is building a $6 billion golf complex with Trump, stripped the property of his name and image.

Ya know, you’re right, but unfortunately there’s far too many of those enemies yelping right here in the USA. Those “normal” Americans that don’t believe in American Exceptionalism anymore and lap up the Lib slop of how everything is America’s fault, how terrible we are. Led by the current POTUS. It’s sad. Ya just hope we can outnumber them at the polls next year and get this country back on track.

Imagine if Trump had an ad campaign on TV for each one of these. A short 30 second spot, all very similar looking, but the content changes. You could watch a hundred and never see the same one twice. People would watch to see what else she was up to.

Money placed in Hillary’s control by a foreign government cannot be accepted without approval by Congress. That is true no matter what good may have been done with the money. There is no need to strain at gnats trying to prove the (IMHO inevitable) fact that the money was exploited by the Clintons. The fact that it was put at the Clinton’s disposal by a foreign government, and accepted without congressional consent, is disqualifying.

All purple state legislators should be explaining why a violator of the Constitution gets a place at the top of the ballot for electors. The legislatures control that in their respective states. Hillary should be off the ballot.
