    Some dastardly countries in the world must be getting uneasy. For eight years they could do as they pleased without real consequence. Need to invade another country? Need to bomb some other countries civilians? Need to drop chemical weapons on people? Need to meddle in an election? Need to build a nuke? No problem. As Nike says "Just do it." America will not bother you.

    But now? Confusion! What will Trump do when an adversary gets uppity? Will he be friendly? Will he ignore? Will he go to war? Will he drop a nuke? Trump is unpredictable, chaotic, maybe insane!

    If you're a dastardly country who has some messed up evil things to accomplish then you have 28 days left to do them with impunity. Because come January 21, 2017 who knows WTF will happen if try pulling your evil deeds under the Trump administration. Not even us Americans know what Trump will do.

    Well, enjoy your moment. I feel this will end badly.

    People want leaders, not reality TV stars or mega corporate stooges.

    Yes, yes we will and in time the curtain will be pulled back and you will see the con that we saw a long time ago.

    No, he's a fool and lets be real clear about policies. He doesn't have any, never did. He's putting "great people" in positions that will form policy and he will go along with what they say. Make no mistake that the "cabinet" he's putting together have their own interests at heart and not the country. When the public outrage grows over the "policies" that will be put into effect he'll go back to what he know.....you're fired.....and the cycle will start over.
    It's gonna be a long 4 years.

    He's gotten everything he's wanted up until now and you think he should moderate his position? That's why low energy Jeb Bush isn't getting a cabinet position.

    And you're saying you'll sleep like a baby knowing he's "looking out" for you?

    A fine guess. Sounds possible indeed.

    But the man loves to micromanage. Maybe he'll act and then blame someone else if it turns into a failure.

    Are you asking if I wake up crying at 2am? Not anymore. It's been two years since the breakup and I am almost over him now. I still think of him sometimes but what choice did I have? I couldn't forgive him a second time. I'm Catholic, but not that Catholic.

    Oh wait you were referring to Trump. Oh yea, no issues.

    Trump is just baiting the media on twitter to see how far down the rabbit hole they'll go. He smarter than they are and craftier and they still have no idea what's about to take place.

    Why not? It's how we beat the Russians during round 1. And doesn't this kinda go against your whole "trump is a Putin puppet" lie seeing how this would obviously be a confrontation
    With Russia?

    Nope. The Poles beat the Russians during round 1, without even a single nuke.

    Trump being less spactic and childish about Russia was one of the things I liked about his foreign policy. What a fool I have been.

    How about you?

    I would rather the money be spent upon bringing our weapon systems up to current tech as our arsenal and it's supporting tech is aging.

    That would certainly be more acceptable.

    I agree with Trump's decisions regarding AF1 and the F-35, but here he's just being this man-child his haters wants him to be.

    Pretty sure the polish were not responsible for the collapse of the Soviet Union. We were. Because we out spent them and they tried to keep up. Lmfao.



    His stance on Russia is one of the few things I really don't like about him. Almost considered voting Hillary because of it.

    Yep - the Poles. Google "Lech Walesa". And pope JP the second. The USA had nothing to do with it. It could have happened during Carter. Reagan just ended up spending people's money, that was his "contribution". Funny that you'd think such a trick would work anyway, but the MIC didn't mind trying it up.

    I admit it would be much more in line with the establishment politically speaking. I bet AIPAC spooks made sure Trump got the message.

    I don't recall Reagan tweeting foreign policy in a 140 characters. Which tweet carries more weight the one about the miss universe or the nukes?

    I sincerely doubt it, but if you can find an example, I am happy to stand corrected.

    Oh brother!

    Kellyanne Conway needs to confiscate his twitter account for the next 4 years!

    The Twit-In-Chief is a national embarrassment.

    At the moment it is not even clear what Mr. Trump is proposing.

    But the US could upload all our SLBMs back to 8 warheads apiece, and Russia couldn't do a thing to match it.

    The US could put ICBMs back in the silos we've been emptying and restore us back to 450 ICBMs. (We are currently transitioning from 450 to 400 ICBMs.)

    We have about 560 ALCMs left. We could arm 28 B-52s and put them on alert.

    We could also fully load the B-2s and put them on alert.

    We could also start sending all our subs out into the ocean instead of keeping most of them in port where they could be destroyed by a single nuke.

    Aside from the added cost of keeping bombers on alert and sending more subs on patrol, all of the things that I mentioned would have trivial costs for the US.
