It appears Obama and Clinton have left Trump an awful mess. He's beginning his Presidency on the brink of all-out war. Can he 'reset' Obama and Clinton's disastrous Russia 'Reset Button?' The man sure does have his hands full. What do you all think?
Lets look at it differently for a second.
This might actually be a good thing as far as the U.S standing and respect in the world goes.
The citizens of the U.S just endured 8 years of an administration that was known world wide for essentially stoking the flames of discontent around the world, in the last 4 years the world watched the U.S put Russia and our allies in a delicate position when it comes to them trusting us. They have watched as the U.S did more to aid terrorist nations than to try and bring them under control.
The world watched as Hillary and Trump fought the battle to win the white house, they saw Trump claiming that he was willing to consider working with Russia and the rest of the world to try and rid the world of the dangerous regimes that threaten world peace all in the name of their religion. They also saw and heard Hillary promise to bring Russia under control, and by doing so, giving the terrorists greater advantage toward achieving their goals. The world watched with trepidation as Russia broke off normal communication with Washington raising the question as to how far the U.S would be willing to go in order to protect the very countries that want nothing more than to bring us down.
Then, with the world watching, the citizens of the U.S voted, they chose the candidate that expressed a willingness to work with others to rid the world of the threat from ISIS and any other group that would threaten world peace and security to accomplish their goal of everyone converting to Islam.
What the world saw was that the U.S citizens did not approve of the tactics and the policies of our rogue president, we did not choose the candidate that claimed she would continue those divisive and dangerous policies. Instead we picked a candidate that, although might not have the experience actually needed for the office, was at least willing to work with Russia instead of against them. The candidate that openly said it could be a good thing for the U.S and Russia to work together.
Basically by electing Trump, it became clear that the citizens of the U.S did not approve of the way that obama was dealing with these things.
I expect that there will be no threat of a WWIII, what I think will happen will be that the rest of the world is going to wait and see what Trump does, Russia will open lines to Washington again and the tension will stabilize.
This all could be a very good thing, lets hope obama does try to start some crap with Russia, he can express his desire to do so, however there is not time for the U.S to initiate any type of aggressive moves toward Russia, when Trump takes office, he can simply undo what obama did and all damage will be repaired.
It will be clear that obama has been working against the will of the people in this country.
If it does work out that way, I would hate to have to be on his security detail after he leaves office.
