I hate Trump and fear him only because I’m very scared he will start a nuclear war. You should be afraid also.
Why would Trump start a nuclear war? It is bad for business and why would he want to destroy the earth and leave nothing for his kids and grandkids that he adores?
My fear is that Iran will develop nukes after Obama and Kerry handed them the ability to do so and don't forget the pallets stacked with cash that was delivered under the cover of darkness behind the backs of the American people so they can pay for their bomb building... I mean their reactors...
I fear Iran because Bill Clinton did a similar deal during his term with North Korea. We were assured they did this deal to ensure that NK would not develop a bomb but look what we are dealing with today.
I wonder if it will take Iran a decade or two to build a bomb like it did NK. I think they will have one much sooner.
We could be seeing the buildup to WW3 with North Korea destroying South Korea and Japan and Iran wiping Israel off the map and holding the region hostage.
I'm not worried about Trump starting WW3 and neither should you.

You are dreaming. Trump is an antagonist, power monger and would probably be thrilled to start a war with N. Korea. He craves attention and thoroughly enjoys conflict. What more attention-grabbing event would provide both than a war? He has no empathy, so he won’t care if hundreds or thousands of people die because he started WWIII.
Scared/angry. It was a shock that Trump won. It wasn't his lack of experience that I was looking at. It was the things that came out of his mouth that were unnerving. It was his support for Stop and Frisk to go nationwide that scared me. When he retweeted a Neo-Nazi tweet that featured falsified statistics about Black crime and then going on record and saying he "never checks his sources", it let me know he wasn't qualified.
When he made fun of a reporter's disability, when he made disrespectful comments regarding POW's, that let me know how much of a bully he could be. This is even more so when it came to "locker room talk". I figured at that point he would definitely lose.
During most of his campaign, it was rare to hear much from Trump regarding Blacks, except for statements that were kind of demeaning or ignorant. Ministers were going to him at first, he wasn't going to them. When he did decide to go towards Blacks, it was possible to see that it was more of a feigned attempt. His "vote for me what do you have to lose" comment, it is kind of ignorant. And when someone supports stop and frisk and want's it to go national, even more ignorant.
I felt like many of the things Trump said and did weren't what I would look for in a President. I also believed that there was no way someone with a petulant, unstable demeanor could win. And yet, it happened. I was scared. I was left wondering if Trump would take this country back to the 1950s.
It was sorta like "good news-bad news," that kinda thing.
Good news - I am not going to glow in the dark ( because Hillary was heading in that direction in showdown with Russia,) bad news - wait a minute, it's that guy from "Apprentice" show now?
You can't be serious))))
One year ago tonight Trump pulled off the most amazing come from behind win since the New England Patriots beat the Atlanta Falcons in the Super Bowl.
Looking back on the most improbable win in politics ever I am still amazed that Donald Trump is our President.
When you think about the premise that an average citizen albeit a rich one, with no political experience at all but with a genuine concern for America could take on 17 career politicians and beat them to the nomination and then beat out the most experienced, most deserving person since George Washington who for many in the media was just going through the motions of the election before her coronation....
Where were you one year ago and how did you feel?
My wife and I were sitting on the couch flipping the TV between Fox and CNN. The look on the faces at the CNN news room was gloomy to say the least. They were actually a good 20 minutes behind Fox in reporting the latest results that were leaning pro Trump.
How did you feel that night, the next day when it was confirmed that Trump had actually pulled off the upset of a lifetime?
I know I was amazed and the future of America suddenly looked a whole lot brighter. I was a bit concerned about all the changes that Trump had proposed in his campaign but even if it hurt I believed that America needed the upheaval. As we have seen the swamp is so much deeper then even Trump had figured.
SO how did you feel this time last year when it was confirmed that Trump had won?
It was a pretty awesome feeling for me. It made up for my 2008 and 2012 disappointments. The best part of it were the meltdowns from the left. Priceless.
Those rust belt states may have killed us all by voting for a mentally ill, unstable person.
They may have, indeed. Thank god they rejected her and voted for Mr. Trump.
