I read the entire piece and the transcript. It was so juvenile, with a foreign relations strategy that more mirrors something by Bart Simpson, than anyone else.
I’m surprised Maggie Haberman didn’t break out laughing.
He’s as well prepared and knowledgeable as Palin. smh
I’ll take what’s behind door number four Monte.
“…and I’m the guy you want with his finger on the button.”
Now we know why evangelicals have flocked to Trump. The crazy billionaire with bad hair who is on his 3rd wife can bring on the end times.
Trump and his entire campaign are people, and running a campaign for people, with the emotional maturity and intellectual abilities of twelve or thirteen year old C average boys. Somewhat mean ones.
And there are indications that Russian leadership supports his candidacy?
Be careful what you wish for Mr. Putin. You might think you can roll him, but I don’t believe you want to confront the Armageddon that might ensue if his trigger finger gets itchy because he feels as if someone is dissing him.
Besides he might just press the trigger simply because he wants to prove that his fingers are long enough to reach it.
“Look at what I can do! Isn’t this the greatest?”
BOOM!
Edit: And what a huuuge job of enlisting the regard and support of Angela Merkel!
Actually, an all-out nuclear war would likely stop global warming and replace it with a so-called “nuclear winter.” – a true global holocaust. This outcome would become all the more possible with a President Trump (God forbid) rattling his nuclear sabres and mouthing off about first strikes.
“Just look at these fingers! These are strong, beautiful fingers, ready on Day One to push that freakin button and send the USSR back to stone age.”
Anyone who would vote for or in any way support dumpf has their brain put in their skull backasswards.
This man has zero conception of statecraft, governing, dealing with an obstreperous Congress, or running the executive branch.
He also has no concept of the American military, what it can and cannot do or how to approach nuclear weapons.
This man is a real estate developer, casino “owner” aka a “business man”. That isn’t the skill set needed to be POTUS. Not only that he lacks the temperament for the job as evidenced by his over riding need to respond to the slightest perceived insult in a very very public and very juvenile manner. Trading insults on twitter is not Presidential behavior. It’s what an immature child does, not a grown man. You don’t see Obama behaving this way.
Businessmen have made poor politicians. I base that on three governors of my state (Arizona) that I’ve witnessed. Evan Mecham was a used car dealer who got elected governor. He was very conservative and his brand of incompetence led within a few years of his term to his ouster. He was busted for embezzling state money ($80,000) meant for his inauguration and used it to prop up his car dealership. Gov. Fife Symington was a real estate guy in Phoenix who got mixed up in a very shady land deal that also nearly ended John McCain’s career. Symington was sent to prison for a couple of years. Now we have elected Doug Ducey, former CEO of Cold Stone Creamery. He is dutifully doing his damnedest to be Sam Brownback 2.0. I could do a 4 hour rant on Ducey. The take home message is: do not elect businessmen who would run a state or country as the run their businesses. Just don’t.
A GOPer makes scientifically inaccurate statement with no basis in fact. Must be a day ending in “y”.
Oh man. I cant tell you how much I’m looking forward to their foreign policy debate! Clinton is absolutely going to humiliate Trump! She is going to make him look like the biggest fool.
.The only thing trump is going to say over and over again is how much he thinks the Iran deal sucks which she will easliy be able to counter and a bunch of blow hard tough guy talk about ISIS which she will also be able to easily counter. She is going to run circles
around him and by the time its all said and done Sarah Palin will look smart compared to Trump
the emotional maturity and intellectual abilities of twelve or thirteen year old C average boys. Somewhat mean ones.
A Trump rally is basically “Lord of the Flies” on steroids. Or meth.
I see body language similar to Hitler at the Nuremberg rally as filmed by Riefenstahl, but with more orange. So, WaPo has declared him nuts, NYT will as well. This will be in its print edition tomorrow which I usually read cover to cover, but this nonsense I will only scan.
Here’s a tip for Trump’s new foreign policy geniuses: the right answer to “would you use tactical nuclear weapons against ISIS?” is …
“No!”
Obviously his fingers aren’t his only short appendages.
My take on Trump:
hey. at least he has a global warming strategy.
Read the transcript, people. The NY Times is actually trying to make it out to seem like Trump has a semblance of a coherent foreign policy, even a laughable one. He doesn’t. The transcript is him just winging it like a drunk uncle.
I don’t think drumpf can consider the consequences of using a nuke in the middle east. He hasn’t got the mental capacity he thinks he does. He thinks he’s got a great brain and the world’s best memory by his public statements. I disagree.
