Let me say, I have never been excited about Donald Trump as president. I was looking to find something to disagree with in this speech. However, not only did he address all the issues regarding foreign policy that I wanted to hear about, it turns out that Trump's foriegn policy appears to be in line with mine.
you must be in the ron paul camp like me.
Big fan of Ron Paul
Me too.
This is why Trump is of interest to us, but I can't help but think he too may turn out to be a disaster. That said, I think those of us objective and knowledgeable, KNOW Hillary will be a disaster...IMO she just might get us into WWIII.
So...it is the lesser of two evils again.
Key word is you THINK
This is how I feel about it. We know what we'll get with the others (Clinton, Cruz, Kasich). Status quo and more of the same. They're all the same pretty much the same, yes they have their differences, but at the end of the day they'll get in office and continue kicking the can down the road. We cannot afford that shit anymore. Trump on the other hand has every intention of getting in office and actually doing something. Not just paying lip service. Some are going to say that he can't just do things willy nilly and needs to work with Congress, which is 100% correct.
So how will he get things done? If you have been paying any attention to him at all, he's been showing us all along. Trump gives ZERO fucks about either party, donors, lobbyists, special interests etc etc. I think you'd agree with that? I mean saying the Bush Admin may have lied about 9/11 is something only a Republican with basketball sized huevos would say, not too mention these 2 quotes from his speech yesterday: "Our goal is peace and prosperity, not war and destruction" "We will no longer surrender this country, or its people, to the false song of globalism." Did he just say NO to globalism?!!! Thats YUGE......took a giant set of balls to say that. Bravo Trump. A Republican talking about peace and prosperity over war? WTF?! See the pattern here? His message is about America first. Of course the RWNJ's will pervert that message and call him an isolationist and the liberals will compare it to Hitler.
So back on point on how he will get things done. The paragraph above is a huge clue. Trump would NOT side with his party on an issue(s) if it didn't benefit America and it's people. He'd want the best solution to the problems we as a nation face no matter what side of the isle it came from. He owes no one (donors/lobbyists,special interests etc) ANYTHING, so his solutions will be rooted in whats best for America/Americans. That makes him 'dangerous' in Washington. I can see him negotiating with both parties for the best possible solution and if neither party is willing to compromise he'd more than likely call them BOTH out for failing to come to a viable solution. There'd be no pointing at the guys across the isle anymore. He'll hold EVERYONE accountable.
In closing this is what I believe we need. A President beholden to no one but the American people...period. Trump is that person. He's proven it time and time again.
