Unsuitability of The Donald
For those who have forgotten or otherwise don't believe me about his stupid ego. It knows no bounds and is worse than Obama's, if that's even possible....

Re: Unsuitability of The Donald
You know I had forgotten about that but I think it's a good point. It's an example of Trump totally screwing something up.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

He can be as unsuitable as he wants. Ultimately, moderates win elections and Trump would get destroyed from that end.

No, ultimately those who can captivate the masses through televised speeches win elections.

Turns out Hillary was right about Trump being the best recruiting tool for the terrorists.

Re: Unsuitability of The Donald
Well, I do think that whole line of thinking is a crock. The idea that we have problems with those brain dead people becoming terrorists because of things like Trump saying stuff or things like us actually fighting back is a bunch of nonsense. To me we should be completely willing to let them bring others inclined to do so to the fight. Like for instance ISIS. I'd be fine with us putting ground troops in to go after ISIS and drawing in a bunch of other brain dead Muslims in who want to fight. That way we can get them all in one place and kill them.Turns out Hillary was right about Trump being the best recruiting tool for the terrorists.
This stuff of worrying about how our actions help them to "recruit" is asinine. To me our attitude should be that if there's anybody out there who is inclined to do something like fight with ISIS let's let them do it so we can kill as many of them as possible. It's like drawing flies to bait so you can spray insecticide on them.

is the biggest recruiting tool for ISIS and Radical Islam
The Democratic process and all that it is and what it stands for
cannot be "given" like a greasy bag of garlic cheese fries
You have to want it and be willing to die for it
and they don't want it (in droves) and are willing to die (by the millions) to stop it
But that doesn't stop us from telling anybody who'll listen how important exporting democracy is ..!!!

I want "weltanschauung " to be The Word of 2016. I've decided to boycott the words of 2015, which were "nuanced" and "iconic."

It has taken a long time to realize that everyone is not like us and just wants the same things we do. The more fundamental Muslims take the Qu'ran's commands to Kill, subjugate or convert non-believers literally and are just putting their faith into action through jihad. That Islam is not monolithic and many radicals consider other branches of Islams as non-believers as well.
While the Donald is a blowhard and certainly does not have the temprement to be President, many of the Muslims would hate us no matter what for our life style and our rejection of Sharia law.

I'm not sure a ground invasion to suck all of the bad guys in is the only option at this point. So yes, I think it's a rather cavalier.
