The fact that you would say such a thing as "Trump is a threat to the whole world" shows how effective the deep states propaganda machine is.

Hillary Clinton is the warmonger and champion of foreign intervention, not Trump.

Worked for Reagan, the Republicans love it and Trump is already working on his reelection.

Reagan didn't cut State much at all, and he had the ability to drive the budget into the red without significant worries. Plus, the USSR was trembling at the knees economically then, while Putin and his cronies stand to benefit from increasing oil prices now. The Russians are ramping up their military spending now, and are not crippled by a horrible Afghan invasion like they were when Reagan came to power.

Fighting never ending wars in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan are horrendously expensive, have chewed up our military's readiness and morale, and have decimated monies normally spent on maintenance, upkeep, and replacement parts, to the point where our forces have about a 45% to 55% capital weapons platform availability across all services. This means tanks, fighter jets, bombers, subs, aircraft carriers, amphibious landing crafts, troop transports, Humvees, et al are broke dick DOA.

Isn't cutting State and EPA budgets to help offset the $54 Billion increased defense spending?

Rob, Tom Joad is a strange person, it's a pity. A big bunch of IQ points - totally wasted. I am so glad that people like TJ are still the minority in our Western democratic societies.

It's Trump's fault for making it so easy to hate him. He has made it plain what kind of trash he is. People who chose to filter or ignore his actions to fit their reality are the same people who said. What concentration camps, I don't smell anything. I don't remember who said it but this phrase keeps coming to mind. Those willing to trade freedoms for security deserve neither.

And yet, the irony of your post eludes you given your Hillary bashing.

There is no hate if you hate what Trump really represents.

You people don't know how lucky you are to have someone of my caliber posting here with you mooks.

It's like Andy Murray coming in and volleying with some local weekend wannabes.
