By Rich Scheck<\/p>\n

Donald Trump is an easy man to dislike!<\/p>\n

He is un-endingly self-promotional, i .e narcissistic.
\nHe has an enormous ego and is VERY thin skinned.<\/p>\n

He is so insecure on some level that he needs to flash
\nhis name all over the place, like a teenager.<\/p>\n

He is bossy, authoritarian and often crude.<\/p>\n

I could go on, but I think you get the point and
\nprobably agree.<\/p>\n

Trump is definitely not my first choice for President.
\nAs things now stand, he is not even on my short list
\nof whom I would ideally like to see running the
\ncountry during this time of extreme crises.<\/p>\n

BUT, because we live in a country run by two
\ntotally corrupt parties who have bankrupted our
\nnation economically, politically and morally while
\nleading us down the road to endless wars, and
\nbecause only a handful of people currently have
\neven a slight chance of being the next Commander-
\nin-Chief, I am forced to focus on the only one who
\never says the things I want to hear.<\/p>\n

Trump fits that bill in the key area of my concern:
\nforeign policy and national security!<\/p>\n

He is willing to say George Bush lied us into war!
\nhttp:\/\/www.infowars.com\/trump-on-bush-going-into-iraq-they-lied\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Bush did lie and everyone knows it. Yet Trump is
\nthe only Republican now left in the race who has
\nthe guts to state the obvious.<\/p>\n

That is why many Americans will support him and
\nwhy many of us who would otherwise find this loud-
\nmouth, self-serving, son-of-a-bitch unacceptable,
\ninstead find him a refreshing addition to the current
\nelection campaign.<\/p>\n

Bleeding-heart Bernie won’t say it. He meekly says
\nhe voted against the Iraq invasion (YES!) and then
\ngoes on to support every intervention and abuse of
\nthe war powers since 2003 along with Hillary Clinton
\nand a large percentage of the Congress.<\/p>\n

Trump also has the cojones to mention 9\/11 and raise
\nthe possibility for those who reject the official explanation
\nthat provided the pretext for invading Iraq that we may
\none day learn the truth of what really happened.
\nhttp:\/\/www.infowars.com\/trump-booed-over-911-comments\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Trump also is the only candidate who may reside in the
\nWhite House next January “sane” enough to say anything
\nencouraging about how to deal with Putin.<\/p>\n

The rest, including Sanders, have bought into the
\nNeocon-inspired demonization of the Russians bringing
\nus decidedly into a new Cold War and possibly into a
\nThird World War if things continue down the path we are
\non in Syria, Ukraine, the South China Sea and elsewhere.<\/p>\n

So considering how things now stand, I am pleased
\nwhen someone running for president can boldly take
\non the leadership of both parties who have mindlessly
\nsupported these expensive, criminal adventures in
\nsearch of Pax Americana and full-spectrum dominance.<\/p>\n

What an incredible irony that the chauvinistic Trump is
\nthe only one articulating the kind of “humble” foreign policy
\nthat some folks might remember Bush, Jr. promising us back
\nin 2001.<\/p>\n

Will The Donald<\/em> make the same mistakes and forget his
\nown promises? Very possibly. But during such dark
\ntimes, and with so few rays of hope to cling to from this
\ngroup of political losers, I am open to him somehow
\nprevailing in this election.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=31154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31154\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=31154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=31154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=31154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
