For an alleged and self-proclaimed dealmaker, the speech that Trump gave last night on his foreign policy was high in military and low in diplomacy.
His major point is that he believes that the US military is weak. Somehow, the not-so-bright Trump believes that a nation that spends well over a half a trillion dollars per year on its military, and with bases all over the world, is weak and needs much, much more.
And what would Trump do with that much more powerful military?
He would then hire it out!!
He has bascially said that allies must pay for protection. But protection from whom and/or what?
So let's say he doubles spending on the US military, to well over $1 trillion per year, on building up the US military, who and/or what will other nations want protection from?
Well, from Trump's speech last night, he sees the 'enemy' as immigrants, Islamic terrorism, China and Iran.
So under Trump we would see a much stronger US military looking to pick a fight with Islamic terrorists, China and Iran, and being used to stop immigration.
Sound familiar?
Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.
How would Trump look if, after doubling spending on the US military, there is nobody to fight?
Would the US look like the bully who nobody wants to be friends with?
Or the bully everyone wants to be friends with just in case that bully attacks them, so they feel threatened into paying for protection? Wouldn't that be similar to extortion and/or blackmail by the Mafia?
