Tactical drone strikes, then she'd try to overthrow a leader or two.

Depends on the president's priorities. he might have handled Hurricane sandy well, but when it comes to Ferguson, no comment.

Pathetic.
And military school made him capable of being commander in chief... and having affairs was his Vietnam. Disgusting.

Oh really? What about your idol, Obama? What, by any stretch of the imagination, made him "capable of being commander in chief"?

I trust Trump with the life of my son, a career officer in the Army, and I wouldn't trust just anyone with my son's life.
You need to read his books. He doesn't believe in listening to advisors. Throughout his life, he's learned that they try to undermine him. So, he hires the best advisors, then ignores them. In his book Think Big, he has a chapter "DO NOT TRUST ANYONE."

He also believes in revenge.

Good luck to your son if Trump becomes President. He's going to need it.

well you made valid point.

BUT, you should always keep in mind that for any businessman, profits is the most important.

He said, "Sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make."

I believe he would give the tough job to Russians. He is the one who said Iraq is a big fat mistake.

Why would a President handle an event that happens in a city? The chain of government would be city, state, then federal. The only reason Presidents get involved in these hurricanes is because multiple states are usually involved and because the destruction overwhelms the state.

If President then.......

  • Obama - Make speech in front of teleprompter. Play some golf, go visit a dictator, dance a tango.
  • Hillary - Make a speech in front of a teleprompter. Order up military to drop lots of bombs in the sand. Good profits for General Electric, Lockheed, Boeing, etc.
  • Sanders - Plays version of this video for the people.
  • Trump - Orders small tact. nuke be dropped on terrorists heads. Terrorists eliminated. Another 25 years of endless war and Trillions of dollars waste, avoided. Goes on TV, tells people it's dealt with, people applaud him. Trump Deranged heads explode.

Russia would like nothing better than that. Russia would like to be stronger than the USA, and with Trump in charge, that could easily happen.
