Isolationists don't have empires.

As if we are the only country on this planet.....

The Smaller the planet becomes via technology, the more important it is that all countries can play nice in this big sandbox.

Won't take much for Trump to piss of some world leader who has his finger on that big trigger.


Aside from that.... Just the fact that we would be stupid enough to vote in someone who has no legitimate policy stances and is clueless of how gov works (and, no, gov does not operate the same as the business world) makes us the laughing stock of the world.

The United States used to be great. It will take more than a snake oil salesman to make it great again.

I'd worry more about Rafael.

He is a true megalomaniac. I don't understand why no one in the media is speaking to this.

I could see Trump's predisposition to negotiate being seen as a sign of weakness on the national stage. Putin would likely exploit this and it bcould led to trouble.

Every world leader knows Hillary is a bitch to not fuc% with and would not cross her without cash in hand.

You can predict this as an eventual outcome but where do you get the idea that it's the object(ive)?

We will try the snake oil guy because he cannot do worse than all the other guys from Nixon to the present...they gave away the store.

Works for me, my cardiologist is an extremely nice, younger fellow of Indian descent, and very, very good at his work. I do owe him a debt of gratitude because he did pull me through a caper that I should not have survived and the things after that could have been just as lethal.

Yes. But the majority of these H-1b guys are not immigrants. They work under threat of visa denial.
