Dalai Lama: "I have no worries' about Trump's election 

 

ULAANBAATAR, Mongolia (AP) — Exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama says he has "no worries" about Donald Trump's election as U.S. president and expects the businessman will align his policies with global realities.

 

Commenting at the conclusion of a four-day visit to Mongolia, the leader of Tibetan Buddhism says he looks forward to meeting Trump at some point following the Jan. 20 inauguration.

 

The 81-year-old monk says he has always regarded the U.S. as the leading nation of the "free world" and wasn't concerned about remarks made by Trump during the election campaign. Some of those comments have been cited as offensive to Muslims, Hispanics and other U.S. minority groups.

 

China accuses the Dalai Lama of seeking to spit Tibet from China and had demanded Mongolia scrap his visit.

I agree with the Dalai Lama. Seeing things negative, expecting negative things, will only result in more of those.

Is the Dalai Lama related to the Donald ? Butler or Limo Driver ?

Mr.Lama sure has a cool outlook on life....wish more members could be like him....they'd live longer, happier lives.

I think the Dalai Lama was about the only person Trump didn't manage to upset on the election trail.  Though I like The Donald too.

Donald Trump loves a bit of the old flattery. The Lama has it sussed.

China  should  get the hell  out  of  Tibet and  let  the  Dalai Lama go  home!!!!!!!

The DL is Asian.We all know that they have trouble with pronouncing some letters and tend to use the L instead of the R.So what did he really say?

Now there's a truly enlighted being...I wonder how many of his regressive left followers who swim in the sea of Eastern spiritual mumbo-jumbo will take his words to heart.
