I mean in terms of ridiculousness, not in terms of ideology

Corbyn?

No, while some of his ideology really is ideology, he's not a grade A asshole. Mr Trump is quite unassailable by most people in that respect.

No I find Donald Ass Hat a miserable excuse of a human. I fund Jeremy an intrinsically decent human.

Polar opposites Corbyn has idiotic ideas but seems to be honest, Trump has idiotic ideas but is a shallow, vicious chance.

The political world is full of Trumps and Corbyns, just look around Europe, where either far left or far right wing politicians/parties attempt to be 'different' by telling the people that there is a 'different, less painful and populist way' of solving a countries cultural of financial problems - with some untried, and others tested i.e. France's 'Front Nationale' and Greece's 'Syriza'.

Corbyn is not a selfish bastard.

Corbyn will be selfish if he remains leader of the Labour Party, as he clearly doesn??t want to basically do what the position demands.

The problem being an anti establishment ??old dog??, is that he cannot even pretend to like the UK establishment he may one day represent as PM.

Not bringing yourself to sing the National Anthem yesterday on the 75th services anniversary was not just disrespectful to the Queen, I could handle that, but disrespectful to those who have EVER fought for queen and country.

Just looking at him you can tell that he doesn??t want to be in any limelight unless reciting Citizen ??Wolfie?? Smith type rhetoric; the apparent sneer or general look of being uncomfortable suggests that he would not just rather be sorting out his sock drawer, he??d happily take an enema instead.

Take Trump (please, I can??t even look at him), he looks like he was born to be on a soapbox and speak on ANY subject ?? so while I accept that political passion manifests itself in several ways ?? unfortunately Trump comes across as a man of the American people, as you KNOW that he at least loves the country that they are ALL in.

I suspect that Mr Corbyn's comfort level will decide it is not for him, not the Labour movement/membership - whereas with Trump, you'd need to prise him out of office with a tyre lever.
