If you're an American, do a lot of people in Turkey ask you about Donald Trump? My university sometimes do. Frankly, I don't think he's that different than the local politicians i.e. in Turkey. I shake my head when I hear what he has to say, but I'm not a GOP voter, at least. The Democrats are bad enough, in my book.

How Trump is not different than the local Turkish politicians?
Did the Turkish politicians ask for all Christians or other minorities to be banned from entering Turkey, as Trump did with the Muslims in the USA?

Did the Turkish politicians ask to build a wall between Turkey and Syria, or between Turkey and Bulgaria, as Trump did with Mexico?

I hope Trump is a one-of-a-kind and one-off aberration...local politicians everywhere can be extremist nutcases, but they rarely hold a large national stage nor will they usually be up for something as impactful as POTUS.
