Dond, you are expecting logical consistency from a person who acts impulsively. And you scoff at billions with regard to a CinC whose been quoted as questioning ' why can't we use nuke ?' And what are you going to do now, go around calling me "Bad Analysis Don?'

This isn't anything deserving the description 'analysis,' this is chatter, but I stand by it.

I am reacting to your OP. I agree this is chatter and therefore I am overreacting.
I have great respect for you. You bring quality to this site.

This is what happens when we want our villain to be in all the bad checking areas. It leads to bad analysis.
It's why he's being conflated with Hitler, which has sure improved WaPo's and NYT's bottom lines.

He's none of your multiple choices.

He's not a Cold Warrior like Hillary and our congressional warmongers. IOW, peace candidate.

Yawn. Your sentimental love for Putin and his bitch, Trump is quite amusing.

When somebody starts pulling the 'Hillary is a warmonger' schtick out of their ass, you get what you get, tovariche.

Thanks. I'm sure I over-reacted in turn.

I think it is quite possible that Trump can be both a warmonger and an appeaser. It depends on what he sees on Fox news that morning. The only thing he is consistent about is his distaste for immigrants from anywhere but Slovenia. Otherwise he will just spout what he thinks makes him look good. He will associate himself with Putin to look like a tough guy, and threaten to bomb Iran to look like a tough guy.
