Donald Trump Had the Trumpiest Phone Call With Pakistan’s Prime Minister

[LA se Karachi]

you can't deny the fact California heavily voted for Clinton over Trump 4 million votes more, and the biggest red state Texas only gave 1 million more votes to Trump over Clinton.

And, you can't deny the fact that Hilary received far more votes in states that she lost than in California. In the popular vote, everyone's vote counts the same.

Again, your reasoning makes no sense. You could exclude New York, Illinois, and Massachusetts (or some other combination of states) and say the exact same thing. We have the largest population of any state, by far. So, it's not surprising that we produced the largest margin for her. It makes no sense to single out California. This game could go on forever.

my point is if the popular vote mattered Trump would have campaigned more in these states.

He probably would have. But that definitely does not mean that he would have won. In fact, he would likely have lost by a wider margin. Large "blue" states like California and New York tend to have relatively low turnout rates because voters there know that their vote won't really make a difference. Shifting to a popular vote system would change that.

Voters tend to be older, whiter, and wealthier---groups that favor Republicans. Non-voters tend to be younger, more ethnically diverse, and less wealthy---groups that favor Democrats. Studies have been conducted on non-voters, and they have found if they voted, they would favor Democrats by a fair margin.

But it isnt. Look at the thread title and than at your line of argument. Let go your anti Imran fetish and for once stick to topic.

Do you understand the definition of fetish for Imran Khan? You eat, wake, sleep Imran Khan all day.

Little criticism against Imran Khan and here you here feeling so insecure already.

are u sure that doesnt goes into panama account . or shady LNG deals with qatri prince which gives billions of ruppes as gift to sharif family?

I will let the judge govern its ruling since there is on-going case right now. I don't believe in speculative news, otherwise i am Jewish agent or Kuffar judging by the allegation of majority in the past.

As for the rest, CPEC and other energy sectors are the proof that loans are being used wisely.

[Indus Falcon]

I had to look up "Felicitated"... I'm glad it didn't mean what I thought it would.

Mental image crisis averted.

Just out of curiosity, what did you think it meant?

PM Sharif phones Donald Trump
November 30, 2016 By: Samaa Web Desk Published in Pakistan Be the first to comment!


ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif made a telephonic call to US President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday and congratulated him for his stunning victory in the elections.

According to sources privy to the developments, Prime Minister Sharif has invited the US President-elect to visit Pakistan.

“Prime Minister, you are a man of good repute. Pakistan is a brilliant country of outstanding people,” Donald Trump told Nawaz Sharif.

“I would like to come to Pakistan,” he added. – SAMAA

CNN is telling totally different story about this phone call. Calling Nawaz indirectly corrupt who facing money laundering cases.

They both are businessman so they will go along quiet well.

We know that Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and US President-elect Donald Trump spoke on the phone Wednesday.
What was said during that call is what's at issue.
After the conversation, the Pakistan Prime Minister's Office put out a statement directly quoting Trump -- a violation of diplomatic protocol -- in which he glowingly praised Sharif.

"A president wouldn't gush over a foreign leader the way that Donald Trump did. He wouldn't volunteer to do all these things," says CNN political analyst David Gergen, who has served as an adviser to four presidents.

"Our relationship with Pakistan is one of the most sensitive and difficult relationships in the world. It's an extremely important relationship."

When making that call, a president would likely have a press aide and national security advisers at his side, according to Gergen.

"You'd carefully think through any call like that, you'd make your two or three points, [then] over and out," he said. "Especially don't leave them in a position where they could put out something so gushing that it hurts your relationship with India."

The disconnect
In the past, the President-elect has been a vocal critic of Pakistan.
"Get it straight: Pakistan is not our friend," he tweeted in 2011.

"When will Pakistan apologize to us for providing safe sanctuary to Osama Bin Laden for 6 years?! Some 'ally,'" he tweeted in 2012.

And Trump said in October if he was elected, the United States and India -- Pakistan's longtime adversary -- would be "best friends."

With Trump, we can never know but for now it does look like another cooked story with added Pakistani masala from the Pakistani press?
